100% Recommend!

Lisa is a wonderful photographer and a truly lovely human-being. She photographed our September 2025 wedding in Bristol and every interaction with her, from the first consultation all the way through to receiving our final, beautifully designed wedding album, has been an absolute pleasure. I couldn't recommend her (and Felix) more!

Super helpful and really creative

Lisa was the perfect choice for our day. So calm and reassuring and really took time to get to know us and scope out the venue for perfect shots. Such a great day and she was so helpful and unobtrusive. Thanks Lisa x

Amazing photos!

Lisa at Ampersand Memories was awesome from start to finish. We had an engagement shoot with her which really helped us to get used to being in front of the camera and what to expect on the day itself. Lisa was great all day and really put us at ease, we felt we had the right balance of getting posed photos (both us and group shots) and more candid shots. Before the wedding we had a discussion about the photos we wanted to take and during the day Lisa always checked in to make sure these were all taken and recommend other photos that would look great (confetti shots, sparkler shots etc.).
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.

Lisa
Head Photographer

Blending a passionate Italian upbringing with a love for the British countryside, this Cotswolds wedding photographer specializes in capturing authentic, feeling-filled wedding imagery. Living at the foot of the hills with her husband and cat, she approaches every wedding as an authentic storyteller - allowing your day to flow naturally while capturing the unscripted joy, quiet tears, and cheeky smiles that make your relationship unique.

Equal parts creative dreamer and hopeless romantic, she treats every couple’s story like a favourite novel and thrives on preserving life’s sweetest milestone moments before memories fade. An Enneagram 2 at heart, her goal is simple: to make you feel completely supported while creating timeless visual keepsakes you’ll cherish for a lifetime.

When she isn't behind the camera, you’ll usually find her wandering among wildflowers, obsessing over period romance and fantasy novels, or tuning into indie folk and Swiftie classics - fueling the late-night bursts of creative energy she brings to every love story she captures.
