The thing couples tell me most isn't about the photos, it's how relaxed they felt with me there. People who dread having their photo taken keep saying the same thing afterwards: they forgot I was in the room. That's not luck, it's fifteen years of learning how to put people at ease in front of a camera, across Cambridge, Suffolk, Hertfordshire, London and further afield.
I work in two distinct styles, and which one is right for you depends entirely on how you want your day to feel, not on budget or occasion.

Contact me with your date and venue, and I'll confirm whether I'm available before we go any further.
We'll meet, either at the studio or over Zoom, to talk through your day and which style, Unscripted or Classic, suits how you want it to feel.
A booking fee and signed contract secure your date. The fee is 25% of your package price and comes off your total, it isn't an additional charge.
Closer to your wedding, we go through timings, confirm any add-ons such as a second photographer, and, on Classic Coverage, the family shot list.
Full coverage, getting ready through to the dancing, in whichever style you've chosen. No overtime charges.
Your gallery arrives within 6 to 8 weeks, or 2 weeks on The Complete Story. It stays live for 1 year on Unscripted and Classic Coverage, 5 years on Complete Story. If your package includes the album, or you've added one, design begins once you've approved your gallery.

Pure documentary coverage
No group line ups, no direction. I work quietly through your day as a witness, so most of what you get is a moment that happened whether I was there or not, the only exception is a few relaxed minutes of portraits for the two of you.
Documentary core, portraits included
Documentary at its core, with a small window for relaxed portraits and family groups woven in, so the day still feels lived in rather than staged.
Either style, plus the year around it
For couples who want the story to start before the wedding and end with something to hold. Built on either The Unscripted or Classic Coverage, your choice, with the season before and the album after included.
The Unscripted and Classic Coverage both start from the same price. What differs is the style of coverage, not the value. The Complete Story builds on either one for couples who want more than just the day itself.
Getting married on a smaller scale, or just need part of the day covered? Shorter day coverage is available, price on request, just ask when you enquire.
Prefer to add a pre-wedding shoot or handmade album to The Unscripted or Classic Coverage on their own, rather than as part of The Complete Story? Just ask, both are available separately too.
Destination and international weddings are quoted separately once venue and dates are confirmed. See destination coverage

The Unscripted. No group line up, no directed posing beyond a few relaxed minutes for the two of you. Want guaranteed family shots too? Classic Coverage gives you both.
Not as a scheduled part of it, there's no time set aside. I'll catch a natural moment if it happens, but it isn't promised. Classic Coverage guarantees that window instead.
Yes. All three run for the full day, the difference is in how the day is photographed and what surrounds it, not how much of it is covered.
A pre-wedding shoot, a second photographer, a signing mount, a night portrait package and the 40 Page Legacy Album are all available separately on their own. The Complete Story bundles all of it, plus a longer 5 year gallery and full resolution downloads for all your guests, at a set price for couples who already know they want the lot.
Yes. A second photographer is usually from £350 as an add-on to The Unscripted or Classic Coverage, and is included as standard within The Complete Story. It's most worth it for larger weddings or venues with two locations happening at once, such as the groom getting ready across town from the bride, where one photographer physically can't be in both places.
Most couples book 12 to 18 months out, particularly for summer Saturdays. Earlier is always safer than later.
Yes, including abroad. Travel and accommodation are quoted separately once venue and dates are confirmed, get in touch for a proper figure rather than a guess.
The Unscripted stays observational throughout, bar a few natural minutes of couple portraits, no scheduled group shots, with a gallery live for 1 year and full resolution downloads for the main clients. Classic Coverage adds a 20 to 30 minute window for family groups and relaxed portraits, on the same 1 year gallery and download terms. The Complete Story builds on either, adding a pre-wedding shoot, a second photographer, a signing mount, a night portrait package, the 40 Page Legacy Album, a 5 year gallery and full resolution downloads for all guests.
I shoot at venues right across Cambridgeshire, Suffolk and London, and have a growing list of featured wedding venues I return to and know well. If your venue isn't on that list, it doesn't change how I work, I'll still be there early to walk the grounds and find the light before your guests arrive.
I don't shoot video myself, but I now work closely with a talented videographer so you can have both covered on the day. Click here to find out more.
