Capturing the Heart of Your Wedding Day

Planning your wedding means creating memories that last a lifetime. Millie Pilkington is one of Britain’s most respected portrait photographers, known for capturing the true spirit and emotion of weddings. She has photographed hundreds of weddings—from intimate gatherings of just 30 guests to grand society events.

A Natural, Unobtrusive Style

Millie’s approach is all about blending in with your guests and capturing your day as it naturally unfolds. She works mainly with natural light, focusing not only on the formal portraits but also on the candid, emotional, and joyful moments that make your wedding uniquely yours.
