About

Hi! I’m Harriet, owner of Harriet Bird Photography.

A cat-loving, tea-drinking wedding photographer based in South Devon.

If you’re a laid-back, down-to-earth, fun-loving couple looking for colourful and creative wedding photography, then you’re in the right place!

I pride myself on this being a safe & inclusive space. I make no assumptions and welcome everyone with open arms.

My couples all say I put them at ease, and I think that’s down to my ‘don’t take life too seriously’ outlook. We often have a giggle and just get on really well, which helps a lot! No awkward poses here, thank you very much!

I’m a laid-back person and love all things colourful!

Unforgettable engagement shoot!

Fantastic experience doing our engagement photoshoot with Harriet - super fun and she was great at giving direction to elevate the photos! She got the photos back to us even quicker than promised and they are beautiful! Can’t wait for her to photograph our wedding in July, and would highly highly recommend her ❤️ thanks so much Harriet!

Best decision we made for our wedding!

Harriet was a complete godsend both before our wedding and on the day itself. Her perfect mix of bubbly joy and professionalism made me so excited to see her when she turned up on the morning of our wedding for getting ready pictures. From there, she was an absolute superstar - somehow everywhere all at once, capturing the big and small moments throughout our day. The photos speak for themselves; they are STUNNING and encapsulate the joy and love of the day so well. Would 100% recommend Harriet for your wedding day (and am just waiting for another excuse to have a photoshoot with her in future!). Thank you so much Harriet, we love you! Finola and James x
