I am a Manchester-based wedding photographer capturing weddings in an elegant, documentary style with a subtle editorial influence - focusing on real moments, genuine emotion, and the quiet beauty in between.

My approach is relaxed and natural. I truly believe the most meaningful wedding photographs happen when you are fully present with the people you love, free to enjoy every moment without worrying about posing or performing for the camera. Most of your wedding day is photographed exactly as it unfolds, allowing your story to be told honestly, naturally, and with feeling.

Alongside this documentary approach, I bring a refined, editorial eye to composition, light, and detail, and offer gentle guidance when it’s needed, particularly during couple portraits. This ensures your images feel intentional, elegant, and beautifully composed, without ever feeling stiff or over-posed
