If you are looking for the full package, look no further!

Laura was an absolute star! We had the pleasure of meeting Laura as she was photographer at a family wedding, and from that moment we knew that she was to be our photographer as and when we got married. Laura and her husband went way above and beyond to make sure our day was so special. They weren't just photographers, we genuinely felt like they were friends celebrating with us. Their photography was second to none, we couldn't wait to see what they had done for us and we cannot express how pleased we are with the results. Laura literally is the full package; an amazing photographer, ultimate professional, fantastic with people and completely 'unflappable'. If you're looking for a photographer, especially for a wedding, look no further! Thank you so much for your efforts and work, we couldn't be happier with the result and would recommend to everyone!

Amazing Photographer

Laura was our wedding photographer and she was truly exceptional. She made us feel so comfotable, engaged so well with our wedding guests and captured our day so beautifully. She went above and beyond and could have got away with being a bridesmaid, what with her caring nature and ensuring everything was just so. She kept us informed throughout the day and got some exceptional photos. We are over the moon with our wedding photographs and can't recommend Laura enough. She is so down to earth and just so lovely, I felt instantly comfortable on the morning of my wedding. Thank you Laura! xx

Lots of love Shanice ♥️ The legend even had a selfie with us ♥️

The photographer of dreams!

Laura, you are honestly one in a million. I’ve never felt comfortable in front of a camera until I was with you (my wife on the other hand has no problems with being photographed! 😂) You made our day, you captured everything we wanted. You truly made our day. Every guest adored you & we are so glad we got to share our special day with you. Thankyou for everything ❤️ Imogen & Shanice xxx

Best Wedding Photographer On The Market

Laura was incredible, we honestly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. We first saw Laura’s work at a friend’s wedding and were so impressed that we looked her up for our own. Even after researching and comparing other photographers, we came back to Laura for several key reasons. Her photography style is absolutely gorgeous. It captures all the real, emotional moments in such a natural and genuine way. Beyond the beautiful images, her packages offered the best value we found, both in terms of the time she spends with you on the day and the number of fully edited photos you receive afterwards. From the start, Laura’s communication was fantastic. She replied quickly, was always clear, and even set up a video call so we could get to know her before booking. On the day itself, she was calm, confident, and great with our guests, especially when managing a few trickier family dynamics. She handled the posed shots professionally if that’s your thing, and blended in seamlessly during the candid moments. As the bride, I really appreciated how she moved effortlessly through the morning preparations. She made me and my mum feel calm and supported, especially when the nerves kicked in. We were blown away by the photos. Laura captured everything we hoped for and more, including all the little moments that made the day so special. We received a sneak peek just one week after the wedding, and the full gallery only a few weeks later. The platform for viewing and downloading the images was very easy to use, and we were able to hide any private photos before sharing the gallery with friends and family. If you're looking for a talented, warm, and professional photographer who truly cares about your day, we wholeheartedly recommend Laura. She made us feel like we were her only couple. (Actually unable to upload her photos as full quality as they're too big, so I had condensed them)

The most amazing wedding photographer!

We used Laura for our wedding in March… and she did not disappoint! Not only is she incredible at what she does, with the most amazing photos taken of our special day… But Laura is genuinely one of the nicest people who you could meet. From start to finish we couldn’t have asked for anymore. She went above and beyond and made sure it was all about us and what we wanted. All our guests commented on how brilliant she is, and they all managed to get photos that they wanted themselves rather than just what we wanted to do! We are so so so grateful for everything Laura did for us, and will forever remember our day through all the wonderful pictures we recieved.

Thank you, Laura, for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever!

Laura photographed our wedding in the summer, and we couldn’t be more grateful for the beautiful photos she captured. Every picture truly reflects the joy of our special day. Laura is such a pleasure to work with—professional, friendly, and incredibly talented. We are so happy we chose her to be part of our big day and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond. Thank you, Laura, for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever!

Book Laura as soon as you can!

Laura deserves every 5-star review here. From start to finish, Laura has been exceptionally friendly, professional, knowledgable and reassuring. She put everyone at ease so quickly that people asked us how we knew her outside of the wedding... we don't, she is just that good! Everyone was in the right place at the right time on the day, the candid and staged photos are incredible and the photo album at the end is presented really well and is very easy to access and curate afterwards. As with many weddings, we were so busy throughout the day that we missed some moments when we weren't present. Laura was able to capture many of these so we could discover and enjoy them after the event for the first time - this was lovely to do after we had calmed down from the excitement. Our message to you: We really cannot recommend Laura enough!

She's the best

Laura was brilliant from start to finish. We first had our engagement shoot in the autumn, which was a lot of fun and produced the most beautiful candid photos. Then on our wedding day in the summer Laura felt like a close friend, bringing joy, making us laugh, involving the guests and checking people were OK... she really added to the fun atmosphere and the resulting photos were STUNNING. Communication throughout was brilliant. I cannot recommend Laura highly enough.

Great from the start and the best wedding pics

From the moment we first spoke to Laura, we knew we’d made the right choice. Her clear and open communication from the start made the whole process stress-free. She took the time to understand our vision and explained everything so well that we felt completely confident about what to expect. When it came to the quality of the photos, we were blown away. Laura has an incredible talent for capturing not just moments, but the emotions behind them. Every image feels alive, full of joy and love. There are so many standout shots—it’s impossible to pick a favorite! The sheer number of beautiful photos we received far exceeded our expectations, and they truly tell the story of our day. On the wedding day, Laura was a dream to work with. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about her—many told us, "Your photography is off the charts! You’ve captured so much emotion and joy, all while being fun, engaging, and respectful." She was incredibly sensitive to those who are camera-shy, putting everyone at ease and somehow making us all look amazing. Her warm and friendly personality added so much to the atmosphere. We cannot recommend Laura highly enough! If you’re looking for a photographer who’s professional, talented, and truly cares about making your wedding unforgettable, Laura is the one. Thank you so much for giving us such beautiful memories to look back on—it means the world to us. ❤️

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Honestly, there are just too many to mention! Each one has it's own thing - it might be awesome styling, a couple being super playful, a rocking ceilidh, grandad getting you in the face with a bucket of confetti, a heartfelt speech or a simple touching moment with a gran. It's all about the moments that make it memorable to each wedding. :D

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Fun, fresh, creative and authentic with a traditional nod.

What about your business are you most proud of?

That after 11 years in, I still love every wedding I capture and I still get giddy excited with every couple I meet. Every wedding is unique and I love the anticipation that brings because it allows me to capture the day uniquely.

What is your No.1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Oh gosh, there are so many! With photography? Meet us beforehand - it makes such a difference to your day and ultimately your images when you get the first meet weirdities out of the way. On the day, trust us and just play - we can take a photo but we need you to bring you...call it a teamwork effort!

Generally? Ask your suppliers for advice because they are goldmines of info. For the majority of couples, it's their first time walking down the aisle but a good supplier gets married easily 30+ times a year. They know so much more about what works, what doesn't and what can go wrong!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Anything that is putting the couple's personal stamp on the day - it's important to make the day truly yours and it makes for great conversation! I've loved gold dinosaur tablecentres, couple outfits with a twist, full on riots of colour throughout, mad ceilidh dancefloors and whisky/cigar bars, to name a few.

What is the No.1 photo that you think every couple should take?

It's totally traditional but get that group shot of everyone, so you can look back when you're old and recall all the faces and characters that made up your day. It will quickly help evoke memories even beyond your wedding day and that's important.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Acceptance! You can never control it, so run with it, get the brollies out and make something of it as it's all part of your day and your memories. There are always photo opportunities when you least expect them.

Describe how you got into photography.

Once upon a time, we bought an awesome puppy and the rest was history! When we meet, I'll tell you all about it! :D
