“We wanted to find photographers who would capture our friends, family and slightly quirky wedding as they are, not staged. Every single expectation we had was exceeded!”
Hi, and thanks for taking an interest in what we do. Choosing a wedding photographer isn’t just about how the photographs look; it’s about how it feels to have someone there with you on the day. We believe the best moments happen when people feel relaxed, unhurried and free to be themselves — and that belief shapes how we photograph every wedding. While our attention to detail may border on obsessive at times, we certainly don’t take ourselves especially seriously.
We value simple things: hiking up hills, walks in the woods, good music, good films, good beer and good food. We tend to count our blessings in experiences rather than possessions.
Travel has been an important part of our lives together. We spent our honeymoon in the deserts of Jordan and have been fortunate to visit many other incredible places since — including Norway, Cuba, Egypt and the Greek islands. Closer to home, we’re drawn to the quirkiness of Whitby, the quietness of Northumberland and the breathtaking drama of the Scottish Highlands. Those experiences — slowing down, noticing details, being comfortable in quieter moments — shape how we approach photographing weddings too.
Let’s talk values
Wholesome, honest and good for the soul. Our approach to photographing your wedding.
We’ve been doing this a long time and have stayed in business through all the ups and downs that life can throw at you. Over the years our style has naturally refined, but the fundamental way we approach photographing weddings has remained the same.
We take an unforced approach, rooted in observation rather than direction. We don’t believe in manufacturing moments or asking you to perform for the camera. Instead, we pay close attention to what’s happening and respond to it as it unfolds. If you’re after the latest TikTok trends or heavily choreographed moments, we probably aren’t the right choice for you.
Although the physical details of a wedding are important, what stays with people long after the day itself are the relationships and interactions between those involved. Our work is shaped around those moments — anticipation, nerves, the emotion of the ceremony, quiet seconds of reflection, friends catching up, and the energy that builds as the day moves on.
We’re drawn to real, unguarded moments: hugs with your closest friends, guests losing themselves on the dancefloor, and time spent together away from the noise. They don’t need staging or exaggeration — just to be noticed and treated with care. This way of working allows your wedding to unfold naturally, while still being thoughtfully and carefully documented.

This page has talked about our ethos – how we think and what we’re trying to achieve. If you’d like to understand how that translates into an actual wedding – how the booking process works, what we’re doing during the morning preparations, how we approach the ceremony, what the couple shoot looks like in practice, how the evening unfolds – our Working With Us section covers all of it in detail.
There’s also a page on choosing between one photographer or two, which a lot of couples find helpful early in the decision-making process.
