Relaxed wedding photography · Kent & beyond

Your day.
Just as it felt.

The anticipation. The arms wrapped around you. The look you give each other when it all sinks in.

Weddings and civil partnerships, with space to be yourselves. You live every moment. I’ll help you keep it.

For your kind of love. Your kind of day.

The little moments become everything.
A day to be fully present in

All the feeling.
None of the pressure.

You’ve brought your favourite people together for one of the most meaningful days of your lives. You deserve to be right there in it — laughing through the speeches, holding each other a little closer and staying for one more dance.

I’ll be looking for the moments you feel, and the ones you don’t get to see. A proud glance across the room. A hug that lasts a little longer. The happy chaos of everyone you love in one place.

When we take a little time for photographs of the two of you, I’ll guide you gently. The rest of the day, you can get on with making memories.

Before the day

A familiar face.

We’ll get to know each other, talk through your plans and make room for what matters most to you. When the day arrives, I want to feel like someone you already know.

In the moment

Space to be yourselves.

A relaxed presence, a little reassurance and gentle guidance when you need it. You can focus on each other and the people who’ve come to celebrate with you.

For all the years after

A way back to the feeling.

Photographs that hold onto the atmosphere, the connections and the details. Something to return to together, long after the last song.

Real weddings · Real places

The day. The place.
The people.

A little reassurance

Things you might be wondering.

There’s plenty to think about when you’re getting married. Here are some answers to help you feel at home. And you can always just ask me.

Before your day

What is your approach to wedding photography?

I photograph your day as it unfolds, looking for the real interactions and small moments that make it yours. For your portraits, I’ll offer gentle guidance so you feel comfortable, then leave plenty of room for you to simply be together.

We feel awkward in front of the camera. Will that be a problem?

You’re in very good company. You don’t need to practise posing or know what to do with your hands. I’ll help you settle in, give you a little direction when it’s useful, and make space for the laughter and connection that happen naturally.

How far in advance should we get in touch?

Many couples enquire 12–18 months ahead, especially for summer Saturdays. Once you have your date and venue, it’s a good time to say hello. If your wedding is sooner, please still ask — I may have your date available.

How do we book you?

Send me your wedding date, venue and a little about your plans. We’ll arrange a relaxed chat, in person or by video, to see whether we’re the right fit. Your date is secured once the booking details are agreed, the agreement is signed and the 20% booking fee is received. The booking fee is part of your total.

Can we meet before the wedding?

Absolutely. We can meet in person or have a video call to get to know each other, talk through your day and discuss anything that matters to you.

Do you photograph weddings outside Kent?

Yes. I’m based in Kent and photograph weddings across the South East and elsewhere in the UK. Tell me where you’re getting married and I’ll confirm any travel arrangements and costs with your quote.

Can we have an engagement session?

Yes, engagement sessions are available as an optional extra. They’re a lovely chance to spend some time together and get comfortable with the camera before your wedding. Ask me about adding one when we chat.

Can you tailor the coverage to our day?

Yes. If the collections don’t quite fit what you have in mind, tell me about your plans. We can discuss coverage that suits your celebration and agree the details before you book.

On your wedding day

Will we spend a lot of time away from our guests?

I want you to enjoy the day you’ve planned. We’ll make time for relaxed portraits and the family photographs you want, without letting them take over the celebration.

Can you help with the photography timings?

Of course. We’ll look at your ceremony time, the light, your venue and the flow of the day to find good moments for portraits and family photographs. The aim is to keep things relaxed and give you as much time with your guests as possible.

Can we give you a list of family photographs?

Yes. Before the wedding, I’ll ask you for the groupings you’d like and organise them to keep waiting around to a minimum. Tell me about any particularly important people or moments too. For the rest of the day, I’ll follow the story as it happens.

What if it rains?

We’ll work with the weather and the spaces available. That might mean finding lovely light indoors, stepping outside between showers or embracing the rain if you’re happy to. We’ll choose something that feels comfortable for you.

What if you haven’t photographed at our venue before?

I like to get familiar with a new venue in advance, usually visiting around the time your ceremony is planned. That helps me understand the light, explore possible portrait locations and prepare for your day.

Can we add a second photographer?

Yes. A second photographer can be useful for a larger wedding, preparations in different locations or another perspective on the day. We can discuss whether it would help with your plans and confirm the additional cost.

Can you stay later if we need more time?

Where availability allows, additional coverage can usually be arranged. We’ll agree the extra time and cost together.

Do you photograph LGBTQ+ weddings and civil partnerships?

Absolutely — weddings and civil partnerships are equally welcome. Every couple deserves to feel welcome, comfortable and celebrated. I’d love to hear your story and photograph your day in a way that feels true to you.

Can our dog be part of the day?

Please do! I love photographing dogs as well as weddings. Let me know your plans for your four-legged family member so we can include them in the photographs.

Your photographs & peace of mind

When will we receive our photographs?

Your completed gallery is usually ready within 10–28 days. I’ll confirm the expected timing for your chosen coverage before you book and let you know when it’s ready to enjoy.

How many photographs will we receive?

It depends on how much of your day I’m with you and what unfolds. We’ll confirm the expected delivery with your chosen coverage, rather than promise the same number for an intimate ceremony and a full wedding day. Your final photographs are professionally selected and edited.

How will we receive our photographs?

Your edited photographs are delivered through a private online Pixieset gallery, where you can view, download and share them with your favourite people.

Can we order an album or prints?

Yes. Wedding albums and professional prints are available after you receive your gallery, so you can choose the photographs you want to keep close. These are priced separately.

Do you bring backup equipment?

Yes. I bring multiple professional camera bodies, lenses, batteries and memory cards, so there is backup equipment with me on the day.

Are you insured?

Yes, I hold public liability and professional indemnity insurance.

What happens if you’re unable to attend?

In the unlikely event that I couldn’t attend, I have a trusted network of experienced professional photographers I can contact to help arrange cover. We’ll discuss the arrangements with you.
