Wedding Hints & Tips.
Hi, I’m an award-winning documentary wedding photographer based in Kent. I photograph weddings all over the world for couples who care deeply about the way they’ll remember the day they got married. Feel free to look at some of the weddings I’ve featured in my blog.
Eastbourne Town Hall, East Sussex Wedding Photographer
Lucy and Sam had an intimate marriage in the heart of East Sussex. I was honoured they hired me to document their their wedding ceremony, around 30 of their closest loved ones and I joined them in the Southbourne Suite of the historic Eastbourne Town Hall.
Fanhams Hall Wedding Photographer
I’m so glad I got to be the wedding photographer for these two wonderful people. They (and their lovely family) made me feel like I’d known them forever! Everyone was so welcoming, and helpfully for me, photogenic! The staff at the Fanhams Hall looked after me like I was part of the team. It was a pleasure to be be a part of such an important day.
Canterbury wedding photographer
And the award for the smiliest couple of the year goes too… Suzanne & Sam! Their happiness is infectious - you can see it when their loved ones look at them. Even passers-by in Canterbury got doe-eyed as the joy pulled them into Suzanne & Sam's orbit.
How to keep your wedding photographs safe
Your wedding day is one of the milestone moments. A day you and your loved ones will recall fondly for the rest of your lives. You'll tell your children stories about it, and in a few decades, you'll repeat these stories to your grandchildren. How much better will your stories be with professional photographs?
Advice on giving a wedding speech
As a wedding photographer, I've seen more speeches than I can count. I've also given a few as best man. Most of us aren't public speakers by trade, so here are the notes I've accumulated over the years in case I get asked to hold the microphone again.
Henley Business School Wedding Photography
I had the pleasure of documenting a wedding for a fun couple in Henley-On-Thames. After getting ready at the groom’s art-filled family home, we headed to St Mary’s Church in Hambleden. Anticipation built as loved ones waited patiently on the grounds of St Mary’s Church for the bride to arrive. Her father walked the happy bride down the aisle to her groom.

All 15 guests must still follow the ‘rule of 6’, staying at least 1 meter apart from other households. The rules don't include workers towards your maximum group size.

Run by a small but mighty team, this wedding venue is a restored 19th-century house set in the beautiful Surrey countryside. They have a private bedroom called the Hideaway, tucked away in a wooded area of their garden.
Seckford Hall, Suffolk, wedding photography
I had the honour of photographing Megan & Kane’s wedding at Seckford Hall Hotel & Spa, Woodbridge in Suffolk. Their family and friends made their day special, and everyone made me and my friend, Josh, feel like part of the party. Their ceremony was stunning, and these guys know how to celebrate. They danced the night away with some club anthems by one of the best DJ’s I’ve worked with.
Documentary Wedding Photography at Down Hall Hotel & Spa in Essex
I’m so happy to have been a part of Aimée and Jon’s amazing wedding at Down Hall Hotel & Spa in Essex. From the moment we arrived, I could feel their love for one another and all their guests. So many loved ones shared in the joy of Aimée & Jon’s Jewish wedding ceremony beneath their chuppah before getting the party started with the increasing momentum (and fun) of Israeli Dancing.
Documentary Wedding Photography at Knowle Country House, Rochester, Kent
Sara & James's wedding was always going to be a celebration. The minor setbacks because of the pandemic only made their day more joyous! A chance for family and good friends to reunite and honour the love of two hugely caring people in their lives. The staff at Knowle Country House, Rochester, Kent, were amazing the whole day. They really made this a special occasion for everyone.

Bronwen & David's intimate wedding was a celebration of their love for one another and their family. Richard, the vicar who led the ceremony at Saint Peter Old Church in Pembury, Tunbridge Wells was brilliant, he'd build a loverly relationship with Bronwen and David. I'm thankful they allowed me to play a small part in your wonderful day.
Wedding photography at Archbishop’s Palace, Maidstone, Kent
Wow, Vicki & Sarah's wedding has been a long time coming! I’ve known Vicki & Sarah for years, so you can imagine how pleased I was when they approached me to document their amazing day.
I knew their wedding would be special, but I was still blown away by all the people that got dressed up and patiently waited outside to celebrate with them! I'm so grateful to have played a small part in their big day at Archbishop's Palace in Maidstone, Kent.
Intimate wedding photography in London
A pandemic couldn't stop true love! I couldn't have asked for a better way to see 2020 out. I got to document the beautifully intimate union of a Romanian & Hungarian couple in London.
