East Midlands Wedding Photographer Portfolio

Portfolio | East Midlands wedding photographer

Welcome to my East Midlands wedding photographer portfolio, a curated collection of my most cherished work from across the region. The East Midlands is one of Britain’s most beautiful and historic regions

As a dedicated documentary wedding photographer, my focus is entirely on capturing the real, unposed story of your day; from the nervous excitement of the morning to the chaos of the dance floor. This isn’t just a collection of pretty pictures; it’s visual proof of how a genuine, candid approach creates timeless, heartfelt memories.

I specialise in shooting at some of the East Midlands’ most sought-after wedding venues, including historic country houses, elegant barns, and scenic waterside locations. While you browse this selection of real stories, you’ll see my commitment to authentic, natural light photography that perfectly reflects the unique personality of each couple and location. If you love what you see here, be sure to check out my ‘My Style’ page to learn more about my philosophy, or view my packages to check pricing and my availability for your date.

Your Questions Answered | East Midlands Wedding Photographer

Choosing a wedding photographer is one of the biggest decisions you’ll make, and it’s completely normal to have a long list of questions about style, packages, and what the day will look like.

To make the process simple, I’ve compiled answers to the most common questions my couples ask.

Have any more questions? Head to my contact page and let me know.

Documentary photography means I capture your day as it naturally unfolds—without staging moments, directing your guests, or making you perform for the camera. I’m there to tell your authentic story, from the nervous laughter to the epic dance moves, catching those spontaneous moments you’ll cherish most. I do, however, offer a very brief, relaxed session (about 15-20 minutes) for any essential family photos and beautiful, natural portraits of the two of you.

I know you’re eager to see your photos! I typically deliver the full, high-resolution gallery within 6–8 weeks of your wedding date. You can expect to receive roughly 500 carefully edited images, ensuring every meaningful moment is included without overwhelming you with duplicates. I always aim to send a small, sneaky preview of around 20-30 images within 7 days, so you have something to share right away!

While I’m proud to be an East Midlands wedding photographer (giving me expert knowledge of incredible locations like those in Rutland Wedding Venues), absolutely not! I love to travel. My packages are straightforward for anywhere in the UK, and I’m happy to put together a custom quote for destination weddings abroad. Just head over to my contact page with your location details, and we can discuss your specific plans!

This is the question every couple needs to ask! I always come prepared with multiple professional grade cameras, lenses, and batteries, and I shoot backups to multiple cards throughout the day. In the extremely unlikely event of an illness or emergency that prevents me from being there, I have a trusted network of professional documentary photographers who I would arrange to cover your day, ensuring your booking is safe.

Yes, every single image you receive is individually edited by me for colour, exposure, and tone to ensure they perfectly reflect my signature style. They are delivered to you in a beautiful, high-resolution online gallery that is easy to download. And yes—there are never any watermarks on the images you download, giving you full rights to print and share your memories with friends and family.
