I photographed a small wedding at a church in Saffron Walden earlier in the year, the weather was stunning, the church was beautiful and it was a pleasure to be part of such an intimate day!
Natural, documentary, candid, stylish, happy!
I love my relationships with my clients, your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life and it's a privilege to be able to capture it. I've been lucky enough to work with a number of lovely couples and those relationships are something I'll always treasure. I was also SO honoured to win Photographer of the Year at the 2026 Essex Wedding Awards!
Start early! You can never plan things too early when it comes to your wedding, especially if you have particular venues or supplies in mind for your big day.
Tiny photos of lost loved ones worked into the bride's bouquet, was very subtle and only the bride could see it, but was a touching tribute.
First look with dad - it captures such a sweet and intimate reaction.
I've had a camera since I was 9 years old and just absolutely fell in love with it, eventually going on to study fine art photography!
