Authentic Wedding Photography

What is a candid Wedding Photographer?

Candid photography is a style of photography that’s main purpose is to ‘document’ as opposed to creating a posed appearance.

As your wedding photographer, I will give you a true and honest account of your day from beginning to end, piecing together the whole story with every image I take. I seem to blend in with the wedding party with my laid back, non-intrusive approach.

My main objective and passion is ensuring you remember your wedding day and not the time spent with your photographer.

The wedding photo film above will give you an insight into the approach I take when photographing weddings.

Megan and Matt’s ceremony and reception took place at the Notely Tythe Barn in Buckinghamshire. It was a truly beautiful day from beginning to end.

“As a candid photographer I didn’t have to give her a lot of direction for the day, all I wanted was natural images”…

…“I felt very relaxed when seeing Maisie during our ceremony and wedding party, it was very natural.”

Though we live in a digital age, there is nothing quite like seeing your photos on beautiful photographic paper. You don’t get that tangible beauty from a screen. 

With stunning quality photobooks from my trusted supplier, your photobook will stand the test of time and will be the go-to item to recover from the loft in years to come when Instagram is a thing of the past.

These are an investment, but one I highly recommend when preserving important memories like these.

Some of my favourite moments to capture:

bride's dad and bridesmaids first look at the bride as she walks in the room

Though my specialism is in candid photography, there is always a place for the mantlepiece photos.

Traditional group shots are something that, should you want them, we will plan together to make them happen efficiently on your big day so that, whilst having those keep-sakes, they didn’t take any time or stress at all.
