Her energy is electric!!!

Shell is without doubt the most incredible photographer we could have dreamt of working with. She shot both our engagement shoot and our wedding. Shell was there every step of the way and answered all our worries and questions. She made the whole experience so fun and her energy is electric!!! We truly feel like we’ve gained a friend. We cannot speak higher or recommend her services enough. PS she has a cute doggo too [GOOGLE REVIEW]

She took special care making me feel comfortable

As someone who HATES having my photo taken i can wholeheartedly say that shell does everything in her power to make you feel at ease and under no pressure at all. she’s so down to earth, easy to get along with and the biggest cheerleader you could ask for. we had multiple people at our wedding say how great she was and that’s before even seeing any photographs. she put no pressure on me and took special care around making me feel comfortable. i can not recommend enough.

We received so many compliments on our photographs

Run don’t walk to book Shell!! She is a FANTASTIC photographer and we couldn’t be happier to have found her for our wedding. We received so many compliments on our photographs and couldn’t recommend her highly enough.

She puts everyone at ease, her style is informal

If anyone is looking for a wedding photographer this lady is one of the best, she puts everyone at ease and her style of photography is very informal, we can't wait to see all the photos from the special day, if I could give more than 5 *s I would, thank you so much for making Charlotte and Lewis's day so special

Our couples shoot turned into a proposal shoot!

This woman is incredible. As a couple, it was our first photo shoot so we were a little nervous as to what to expect. Shell made the shoot feel so natural and not to mention the whole experience being so much fun. Shell has loads of fantastic ideas for those “in the moment” photos. Especially as ours turned into a proposal!! Every emotion was captured and we 100% recommend

We wanted a photographer who was LGBTQ+ welcoming

When looking for a wedding photographer, we wanted to find a photographer that was welcoming to the LGBTQ+ community. We came across Shell, after falling in love with her style of photos, her editing & the natural look her photos give. We got in touch, arranged a zoom meeting and instantly clicked! Shell was very accommodating, knew exactly what we wanted & together we came up with all the ideas! Honestly you won’t be disappointed with Shell, can’t recommend her enough!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Any where the couples have done their own things and stepped away from tradition. One couple had a picnic for the wedding food and it was amazing.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Fun, energetic, natural, stylish, emotional.

What about your business are you most proud of?

That I built it up during a global pandemic.

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

Check prices before setting a budget so your budget is realistic. Don’t spread your budget too thinly. Spend the bulk on your top 3 most important aspects.

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

Couples having their dogs there lots of venues are dog friendly now. And giving grandparents jobs on the day. Flower grandmas and ”best grandads” make for excellent photos.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Before I take a deposit of anyone I like to zoom call or meet in person for a proper chat to discuss their day. Then i send invoice and contract. This finalised the booking and the rest is due 4 weeks before the wedding. I also offer monthly payments if people prefer.

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

Couples photos of them running or being silly and fun. It creates real laughter and I love using movement.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

First looks are a trend at the moment.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Accept the weather and get on with it. Get outside and run around in the wet and you will still get awesome photos. The alternative is you stay inside and don’t have photos which is such a shame. Get brollies if you prefer and wellies but get out there and have fun.

Describe how you got into photography.

I took up photography as a hobby in 2013. I started doing wildlife and landscape photography. This is still apparent in my portraits as I like to get a lot of background landscape in images .
