Timeless, playful, documentary wedding photography for real life lovers

LET’S MAKE YOUR WEDDING PHOTOS ABOUT YOU, YOUR PEOPLE & THE JOY

HERE'S MY

CONFESSION

I’m the unwedding-y London wedding photographer who believes you’re about more than one day.

You want clever, authentic and joyful wedding photos. You want to maximise your booze guzzling and canapé nomming time. You want to be able to forget there’s someone roaming around with a camera.

But on top of all that you want your photos to look like you (maybe just looking 24% more excellent).

Planning a wedding can come with expectations and pressure to look a certain way or to follow current trends. I’m the unconventional wedding supplier here for the couples who don’t want to toe the line. You deserve the freedom to celebrate your personal love story, your little in jokes, in whatever way feels right to you.

plan your wedding your way.
be unapologetically you.
I got your back.

Light-hearted street photography for the
big-hearted wedding crowd

When couples ask how they can get so many happy lovely wedding photos, the answer is simple:

Get ready to ignore me and do your thing! That’s the secret to how we achieve internationally acclaimed documentary wedding photography. Relax and have confidence in someone who has photographed over 400 weddings for more than a decade. You concentrate on getting married, I use my experience and skill to keep up with the pace of your day. Most of my couples tell me they feel camera shy, so this tactic really works best for everyone!

Similarly, if your guests assume I’m a friend, that works out even better! Your photos are important, but being photographed shouldn’t dominate anyone’s day. I rely on my ability to put guests at ease and being a stealthy 5ft 3″ to blend in discreetly with your crowd.

I capture all these fun candid moments with my signature style so your wedding gallery is personal to you, yet artistic enough to be proudly hung on your walls.

This is documentary wedding photography for couples who don’t want their wedding photography to look like wedding photography!

WEDDING PHOTOS FOR LONDON, ESSEX AND BEYOND

I'VE BEEN SEEN

[My mum didn't give me these awards honest]

Emotions rule the roost!

As a Doctor of psychology I'm kind of qualified to say that!

My style of wedding photography is born from my personality and own life experiences. When I started I’d never been to a wedding so I had no preconceptions. I was completing my PhD thesis in Psychology (yes I passed!), so my life has always been about people, emotions and embracing the idiosyncrasies that make us human.

That’s why I see your wedding photography as something more than one day. Your relationship, family and friends are the most important part of your life. I know photos of your people and whatever mischief they get up to are the ones that will make you laugh and cry decades into the future, so that’s what I focus on.

I take personal pride in delivering photos of moments you weren’t even there for, so when you open your album you have reactions like “Oh that’s when auntie Wendy laughed so hard she hiccuped her drink all over herself!” and “WAIT whhhaaattttt, when did that happen!?”

We always said we’d never be the kind of people who have their wedding photos blown up on a big canvas but, having seen that, I’m afraid we may have to just become everything we hate…. Thank you times infinity. You’re a f**king legend.

OH MY GOD THEY’RE BRILLIANT!!!!! I am laugh-crying at my desk. It’s like re-living the whole day. Your composition is so beautiful and you’ve caught so many hilarious moments.

You made us both feel so comfortable and at-ease from the very first moment, and a huge number of our guests told us that very same thing. You were so friendly and likeable that many assumed you were just one of our mates! What a total pro.

Oh my God, Marianne. The photos. I am speechless. They are incredible. It’s such a credit to you that you managed to make two of the most un-photogenic human specimens on this planet look not just photographable but actually pretty damn FLY is a feat not short of miraculous.

Marianne is an incredible photographer who put us at ease immediately as two VERY camera shy people. She was the ultimate fly on the wall on our wedding day. 1000% would recommend if you want some killer wedding photos to show off your special day!

Marianne is the best!!! She managed to capture our wedding and our guests in all their goofy glory. She was a pleasure to deal with from our initial enquiry to the day itself, and worth every penny. A total legend who I wish could follow me around capturing my entire life...

where can we find you?

I’m a London wedding photographer living on the Eastern border, who regularly photographs Islington Town Hall weddings, Stoke Newington Town Hall weddings and Marylebone Town Hall weddings. Lambeth Town Hall and Southwark Registry Office weddings are also amongst my favourite haunts.

I also offer fun Essex wedding photography at venues like the Canary Shed, The Barns at Lodge Farm and Langtons House. I bring the relaxed street photography style to the countryside at Kent wedding venues like Elmley Nature Reserve and Greenhill Farm.

I’m very honoured that couples regularly book me to travel further afield, and over my career I’ve covered the whole of the UK, so feel free to contact me to check my availability for your location.

Keeping it real

THIS IS ME AT WORK

Inviting a stranger to your wedding can be fun but having someone who feels like a friend is better!

I’m serious about my work but still a childish nerd at heart. To see if we’d get along click below to meet me.
