Red Peacock Photography Full Description

Let me capture your wedding story....

Planning your wedding and looking for someone who’ll capture it exactly as it feels? I’m Nicola, the face behind Red Peacock Photography, and I’ve been photographing weddings for over 12 years. I’m based in Ampthill, Bedfordshire, but I travel wherever your love story takes me.

My style is light, natural and documentary-led — all about genuine moments, real laughter, happy tears and all the little in-between bits you might not even realise are happening. No stiff posing, no awkward moments, just beautiful, honest storytelling that reflects you and your day.

A Relaxed, Supportive Experience (Not Just a Photographer)

I’m known for being calm, friendly and quietly in control — helping your day run smoothly while blending in like an extra guest with a camera. I’ll guide you when you need it, hype you up when you’re feeling nervous, and step back when the magic is unfolding naturally.

Before the wedding, we’ll chat properly — getting to know each other, talking through your plans, and making sure everything feels relaxed and well thought out, so you can enjoy your day knowing you’re in safe hands.

What You Can Expect from Red Peacock Photography

A seamless, stress-free experience from start to finish, with a mix of gently guided portraits and natural, candid moments. I work efficiently (so you’re not away from your guests for ages) while capturing all the romance, fun and emotion that makes your wedding yours.

Every image is edited with care in my signature light and natural style, giving you a gallery of timeless photographs you’ll love for years to come.

  • Photography style: Light, bright, natural lifestyle photography
  • Coverage: Half-day (6 hours) or full-day (around 10 hours) options
  • Second photographer: Included in my packages for extra coverage and those moments you don’t see
  • Your photos: All fully edited, watermark-free images delivered on a USB in a beautiful presentation box, plus a private online gallery for easy sharing
  • Albums & prints: Bespoke lay-flat storybook albums and high-quality prints available to turn your photos into something truly special

Couldn’t pick a better Photographer

The most perfect photographer for the most wedding perfect day! I had my engagement shoot with Nicola and she instantly made my husband to be feel at ease. We both agreed that we need look no further in selecting our wedding photographer and booked her as soon as we had our engagement photos back! Many photographers can be rigid and regimented in their styles but Nicola just flowed with our day. The girls in the bride tribe thoroughly enjoyed being around Nicola, laughing and joking throughout the morning! Nicola checked in with me throughout and made sure everything we were capturing was hitting the vision. When I changed my mind and wanted some more casual fun photos (mostly because I was hungry and had huge fomo ) we returned to the party and took some in the moment shots instead! Nothing was too much trouble! She took our rings to the church for us so the groom had them ready and honestly she took care of many of the extra thought bits like the preparation lay and bouquets! Nicola bought Tom along as the second shooter who was also fab! Nicola and Tom really fed off each other and the creative banter was second to none! I’d seen a few sneak peaks before the main album came through and I was beyond exciting! Nicola sent us through some so we could end our social media blackout and everyone was on the edge of their seat waiting for the rest! I have cried so many times with joy that we picked the perfect person to capture our day and with sadness it’s all over! We love seeing the pride everyone has in how Nicola captured them at the wedding with the photos in their lounges already! I’d shoot with Nicola again in a heartbeat - we’re already talking about doing a shoot with our dog and maybe even an anniversary shoot ! I love looking back at all the pictures and am filled with the love and light of the day each and every time. If you haven’t booked a photographer and Nicola has your date free- do it now- book her immediately. You will not regret it, ever. Just the best I could ever ask for! Not only did Nicola do an incredible job of my day and making me feel comfortable- all my bridesmaids adored their photos and felt so comfortable. To the point where Nicola was contacted by one of our bridesmaids partners to do a surprise proposal shoot…. And they’ve booked her for their wedding! 100/100 would recommend. Book her now. I am genuinely excited to see Nicola again at the other family weddings we have now together too! I cannot thank you enough Nicola!

The loveliest photographer!

From the start of our wedding journey, Nicola was very friendly and full of warmth and kindness. She was also very informative with any fine details and showed great organisation too. This really helped my nerves as I had full trust in Nicola doing a great job! On the day itself, she was more like a friend than a supplier due to how helpful she was with getting ready and the laughter she bought to the room was noticed by all my family. As well as this, Nicola showed how knowledgeable she was with wedding events as she was brilliant at keeping timings and helping the day run smoothly. My husband and I wanted a relaxed, romantic feel to our photographs and we feel this was certainly delivered. We will forever treasure these. We highly recommend Red Peacock Photography!

The best decision we made!

I first saw Nicola as the photographer at a friends wedding and instantly knew that when it was my turn, I wanted her! It was like she was one of the guests, getting stuck in with everyone and made everyone feel so at ease in front of the camera. We booked Nicola and also booked a pre wedding photo shoot with her as neither of us had been photographed before. We instantly clicked with her and she made the whole thing seem far less daunting. She gave us helpful tips to make the photos look natural and made us laugh! The wedding day itself, I just don’t know where to begin. It was storm Claudia that day so the weather was not on our side but Nicola arrived positive and full of creative ideas to still make the photos special. We had some incredible indoor photos and wrapped up and got outside embracing the rain. She couldn’t have been more helpful throughout the day, doing the buttons up on my dress, fetching jewellery, mingling with guests and rounding people up. It was an absolute pleasure to be followed around by her all day, we felt so at ease and relaxed around her and you can see that in the photos. We were actually sad when she had to leave in the evening!! We couldn’t be happier with the photos and how they turned out. I cried receiving them! Thank you so much Nicola for being a shining star, you were the best decision we made in the wedding planning process. I couldn’t recommend her more to any future brides

Nicola at RedPeacock photography is amazing and so natural, she made our wedding looks so amazing through her photos and fitted right in like a part of the family. Her photos are amazing and you feel so natural and normal around her.

Amazing photographer

We booked Nicola to photograph our wedding in September 2023 and she was amazing from start to finish. Nicola is so lovely and fun to be around, and she made the whole process feel fun and relaxed, from our engagement shoot to the wedding day to creating our albums at the end. Everyone involved in the wedding commented on how great she was, and I really felt like she added to the day for us all! Not only did she keep us laughing and made sure we felt comfortable while we posed, she was also super helpful and even helped look after my lipstick for the day! I’m so pleased with how our photos and albums came out, and I already know I’ll be using Nicola for any future life events! I really can’t recommend her enough ☺️
