Exclusive OFfEr FOR Love My Dress Readers
Hi,
I’m a Cornwall based wedding photographer capturing relaxed, natural weddings and elopements across Cornwall, Devon, Somerset, the Cotswolds, and throughout the UK. My approach is all about genuine connection and authentic moments.
For me, wedding photography is about far more than beautiful images. It’s about preserving the feeling of the day; the nervous laughter before the ceremony, the happy tears during speeches, the tight hugs from loved ones, and the chaos of a packed dance floor. These are the moments that become your memories.
Most couples tell me they’re awkward in front of the camera, and honestly, that’s completely normal. My job is to help you feel comfortable enough to forget the camera is even there, allowing me to capture natural, relaxed photographs that feel effortless and genuinely reflect who you are.
Originally from Somerset, I spent over 30 years enjoying everything Bath and the Cotswolds have to offer before Cornwall stole our hearts in 2025. Today, I live by the Cornish coast with my wife, our two wonderfully cheeky children, and two equally cheeky dogs.
When I’m not photographing weddings and elopements, you’ll usually find me bodyboarding in the sea, exploring coastal paths with the dogs, or heading off on family adventures; usually with good food involved somewhere along the way.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you tell me about your style of photography?
I work in a reportage style of photography, capturing all the moments as they unfold on the day. Theres nothing better to me than capturing the true happiness of you and your guests, and all the big smiles I get out of everyone whilst sneaking around. My style is very unique and I capture every wedding differently for my clients regardless of how many times I’ve visited a venue.
How far are you willing to travel?
I am willing to travel as far as your venue takes me. Travel arrangements can be discussed when we chat beforehand. I can travel within the UK and internationally; please enquire to discuss details.
Do you go through the original photographs and edit them?
I love this part. My passion before photography was graphic design and I started learning how to use editing software from an early age. If you are self conscious about a few things, there are a few tricks to remove things such as acne if you would like me to at an extra charge.
Will it be yourself photographing our wedding ?
Yes it will be me. I love being with the couple on their big day and I feel honoured to be there with you and all of your guests. I only use Associate photographers in case of emergencies.
When will the photographs be ready?
I aim to get the photographs finished as early as possible without compromising on the finished standard. However most weddings are delivered by 4 weeks and in very busy seasons, it can be up to 12 weeks*.
What equipment do you use?
I use several professional lenses and own 4 camera bodies with external flash equipment to capture your wedding day perfectly and beautifully. I carry 2 cameras with me on the day which saves time swapping lenses and not missing shots. I have also started using 35mm film in 2026 to test the water before adding it into my packages.
How do we meet up to chat if we live so far away from each other?
I am more than happy to talk on Teams or Zoom. If not we can always use the old fashioned way and talk on the phone. Please contact me for more information and to plan in a time suitable to you.
