Observational wedding stories.
I’m Amy, a documentary wedding photographer from Devon drawn to couples who want their wedding day to feel like a celebration of their love and life they’ve created together. Who’ll look back at their photographs in twenty years and feel something real, cherishing the preservation of their personal connections with their families and friends; some spurring memories of pure joy, some side-splitting laughter and others deep warmth for time spent with loved ones; each seen as little pieces of art captured with empathy, humour, compassion. All full of life and creative spark.
I capture weddings with a blend of 35mm, 120mm analogue film and digital photography.
LESS PERFECT, VIBEY, MORE HUMAN
“ONE OF THE WORLD’S BEST WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS”- RANGEFINDER MAGAZINE
The way I photograph weddings continuously evolves and grows, never static but a fluid form that creatively shapes alongside each couple’s energy. I’m here to help you time-travel. Using a blend of digital and film, I bring the energy from your day back to life. My passion is to create something authentic and meaningful that will last you a lifetime.
The unrepeatable light of your day, yours forever.
“We felt endless joy, we felt everyone around us exuding love, we felt the dance floor coming alive, and somehow those feelings have translated into your photos.
To see the way you’ve captured us, but also our friends and family in a way that directly reflects how we felt on the day is other-worldly”

Frequently Asked Questions
-
My empathetic, warm and friendly ease that enables me to seamlessly read each scene to know how and when to anticipate moments and behaviours, with an innate sense for the magical ‘peak’ of a moment that elevates it from a simple candid ‘snap’ to imagery that stops your world at that precise time and allows it to live and breath forever more.
-
Yes. I completely understand you or your family may want some beautiful traditional group shots or you may indeed like a great big group shot as a record of everyone gathered for your wedding day.
My approach with these is to guide you that approximately 6 or so combinations of groups works well to capture all the essential groups without taking you out of celebrations for too much time.
My aim is to make the group shots as easy and as swift as possible so that you and your guests can get back to the main reason you are all there - celebrating your wedding day with your loved one.
-
I don't typically work with a second photographer because working solo allows me to be more discreet and shoot the documentary images that really bring the feeling of your wedding alive. I tend to blend into your day as almost a guest with a camera, quietly working and building rapport with your guests enabling me to capture the true atmosphere of your big day without making it feel like a photo-shoot. The images you see on my website and my style of working is what will be delivered on your day.
However, if you would like extended coverage of multiple venues, large events or full film coverage I am able to provide a second photographer.
-
Yes! Absolutely, although I am a Devon-based wedding photographer I also travel across the UK and am also available for destination weddings abroad. For details please get in touch to chat about your plans.
I’m drawn to couples who want their wedding day to feel like a celebration of their love and life they’ve created together.
-
If I am unable to physically cover your wedding due to an accident or illness I have access to a network of excellent wedding photographers that provide coverage in a similar style and are able to offer stand in support in the unlikely event that an emergency were to occur.
-
If someone at your wedding doesn’t ask me how long I have been friends with you two then i’ll be surprised! My approach is calm, friendly humour and reassurance. I deeply respect your right to enjoy your day the way you wish and work with the flow of the day, gently guiding you where requested and needed (by prior agreement) otherwise capturing the day candidly and authentically.

Yes! I work with an excellent videographer with 15 years experience so that we can offer a collaborative experience of photo and film.
Should you hire your own videographer, I am experienced with working closely with videographers. It is valuable for you to find a videographer that approaches shooting the day in a similar fashion to get the best from both of us, by allowing the day its flow.
-
Certainly! Please do not hesitate to get in contact with me to request to view a full album. In the meantime, my work page is where I post weddings in far more detail giving you a really good idea of how and what I will capture during your celebrations.
-
Whilst I don’t set myself rules on how I shoot a wedding, my style very much leans into relaxed, informal, creative documentary photography with artistic, loose editorial aesthetics. I have an emphasis on reflecting the true flow of the day and am open to how that unfolds when I approach photographing a wedding.
