About

About Me!

Hi, I'm Charlotte! I am based in Ross on Wye, Herefordshire and split my time between here and North Wales (where I grew up in Wrexham area). I will travel wherever the love is! Whether that be the other side of the country, or abroad!

I am a down-to-earth, friendly, outdoorsy person who lives for adventure. I enjoy mountain biking and climbing mountains. I love meeting new people, eating good food and spending time with my family.

My Approach

Most of the time, I will be a fly on the wall, documenting your day in the most genuine, candid way possible. However, there will be times where guidance is needed. I believe the best wedding galleries are created by weaving spontaneously captured moments with artistically directed ones in beautiful light. My aim is to create a wonderfully natural narrative of your wedding with a few “mantle piece” worthy portraits thrown in.

My Style..

My unique perspective in the wedding industry is evident through my colour aesthetic and style. My work conveys a cinematic feel with rich tones and colours. I like to use as much natural light as possible. My goal is to provide you with timeless wedding imagery that provoke emotion and all the ‘feels’.

Collaboration..

I love working closely with my clients to bring their vision to life. Together, we can create inspiration boards, ensuring we're aligned on the style and mood you're after. I’m adaptable, so if you have specific ideas, I’ll work to blend them seamlessly into the day.

Comfort Behind the Camera…

You don’t have to worry about feeling awkward or stiff! I come prepared with fun, natural prompts that will make you feel relaxed and at ease. My goal is to capture you at your best, while making the experience enjoyable and stress-free.

Reviews for Charl Forst Photography

Absolutely incredible ✨

Charl was honestly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. From the moment she arrived, she brought such a fun, calming energy that instantly felt like having another friend there rather than just a supplier!

She somehow managed to keep everyone organised without making anything feel forced or overly posed, and turned the whole photo process into something genuinely fun instead of tedious. She was everywhere in the best possible way — catching the funniest moments, the emotional moments, the chaos, the love, and all the little in-between bits that made the day so special.

When our preview gallery came through, we were absolutely obsessed. Charl had gone above and beyond to make sure we had photos from every part of the day, and somehow managed to perfectly capture the raw emotion and personality of everyone there. Looking through them honestly felt like reliving the entire wedding all over again.

She fit in so naturally with all our guests, chatting away and making everyone feel comfortable — and she even managed to get the MOST beautiful photos of our dog, which alone deserves 5 stars!

Charl is ridiculously talented and truly has a gift for capturing people exactly as they are. We feel so lucky to have had her there and couldn’t recommend her more if we tried!

I couldn’t be happier with the experience I’ve had with Charlotte! From the very first consultation to the final photos, everything was smooth and enjoyable. The photos are absolutely stunning - perfectly capturing the emotions and beautiful moments of the day. If you’re looking for someone to truly understand your vision and deliver amazing results, I highly recommend Charlotte!

Charlotte is amazing!

Charlotte did such amazing work for both our engagement and wedding photos! We are both quite nervous in front of the camera but Charlotte really made us feel relaxed and allowed us to be ourselves which made such a difference. All of our guests commented on how great she was and we LOVE how she captured so many of their memories as well as ours. She was so onboard with the idea of the dance floor photos dash and we couldn’t be happier with how our photos have turned out! We would definitely recommend her, she’s fabulous!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
