Peak District wedding, Losehill House
A delightful story of your wonderful day
Welcome to my website and thanks for visiting.
Your wedding is vey personal to you. It’s all about you and the photographs should reflect your own personalities. Together with a warm hearted portrait that tells the story of the happiness, the emotion and sheer joy of your amazing day, photography can mean so much.
My aim is to capture the story, the atmosphere and excitement in a natural, informal way that’s enjoyable for you and your guests.

A natural and informal wedding photographer who tells your real story.
There are various styles of wedding photography. These can range from formal and mainly posed to a more natural and relaxed style, often referred to as reportage. And I’m one of the photographers who feel that it’s the more natural approach that is key to bringing out the real story of your day.
It’s always good to do a few group photographs. In doing so, it’s important to make sure that the guests all feel involved and that they thoroughly enjoy the photography. It should never take over or take too long, but rather be a really enjoyable part of your day.
I believe that so much of the true picture lies in the smiles, the expressions and the interactions of everyone involved. That’s where the story telling really begins.
Whilst I’m based near Sheffield, I often travel to weddings throughout the UK. Whether it’s The Maynard in Grindleford or the grand Shrigley Hall in Cheshire, I always love to work in that same informal and, perhaps most importantly, natural style.

We just wanted to say a huge thank you for being at our wedding to capture all the special moments. You were so discrete and professional throughout the day but also helped to make us both feel at ease in front of the camera.
Everyone at the wedding commented on how nice, calm, organised and professional you were. We knew you were the right person for us but having you there was far more than what we had ever imagined.
We can’t thank you enough.

Thank you for our wonderful photos, they look fantastic and we can’t wait for the the USB x
From the moment you arrived at my parents’ house in the morning you set all my bridesmaids at ease.
Half of the photos I have seen I didn’t even know you were there. I love the unposed ones.
You have captured some lovely moments throughout the whole day which Scott and I can look at and remember that wonderful day.
Thank you for being so calm.

Thank you for doing such an amazing job with our wedding photos.
I was filled with confidence throughout the whole wedding process due to your organisation and professionalism. You helped me feel so relaxed on the day as you took control and remained laid back – all our guests commented on how friendly you were.
Our finished photos are edited perfectly and we absolutely love every single one!
We are so grateful for everything you have done and would highly recommend you to every future bride and groom!

Thank you for capturing the beauty & joy of the day; it went so smoothly and rapidly it was impossible to fully absorb the splendour of Emma, David and our surroundings. Your photographs however truly capture a moment in time, combining art with emotion and story telling. Avoiding endless orchestrated line-ups in favour of a more relaxed ‘of the moment’ style brings a breath of fresh air to the whole album. This very special day will live forever in our families, thanks in no small part to your professionalism.
