About Me

Hi, I’m Stuart, the photographer behind Discovery Photography. Every wedding has its own unique story, and I’m here to capture yours in a way that feels natural, timeless, and true to you.

Tell a Story
Your wedding day isn’t just a series of events—it’s a journey full of emotions, laughter, and love. I’m known for creating images that don’t just show what happened, but tell the story of how it felt. From the nervous excitement in the morning to the joyful chaos on the dancefloor, I’ll be there to capture every chapter of your day.

What It’s Like Working With Me
Couples often tell me they hardly noticed I was there—which is exactly how I like it. I’ll blend in with your guests so I can capture all those genuine, candid moments without interrupting the flow of your day. When it’s time for portraits, I’ll gently guide you so you feel comfortable, relaxed, and free to just enjoy the moment together. No stiff posing—just authentic connection.

What Makes Each Wedding Special
I believe every couple’s story is unique, and your photos should reflect that. I take the time to get to know you both, so on the day I can capture the details and moments that really matter to you. Whether it’s a meaningful glance, a family tradition, or the way your friends celebrate with you, I’ll make sure those memories are preserved in a way that feels personal and true.

If you want photography that’s warm, authentic, and full of emotion—photography that lets you relive not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt—I’d love to hear from you.

Captured the magic perfectly

Stu is professional, warm and friendly, but also super talented at what he does. He captured the magic from our wedding at Runa Farm so perfectly and I’ve only seen the previews, if they are as amazing as they are then I honestly can’t wait to see the rest of the photos. He really went above and beyond for us and for our guests, even taking into consideration one of the children with autism. Absolutely 100% would recommend!

Best photographers

Stuart & Katie were just the best! We had a pre-wedding photoshoot with them at our favourite place getting used to posing and smiling! On the day they were both fabulous and even managed to survive a stepladder to do a particular photo that we wanted!
We have already had some preview photos which are just amazing and can't wait to see the rest.
We totally recommend Discovery Photography, they will capture your day just perfectly.
