About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2025

Last update: August 2026

Josh is a Hereford-based wedding photographer specialising in a documentary-style approach. He focuses on capturing the real, unposed, and honest moments of a celebration—the kind of photographs that transport a couple back to how the day actually felt, rather than just how it looked.

A "Fly-on-the-Wall" Approach

His method is primarily "fly-on-the-wall." Josh spends the majority of the day documenting the loud laughs, the quiet glances, and those split-second emotions, allowing his couples to stay present and focus entirely on their guests. By staying in the background, he captures the authentic story of the day as it unfolds naturally.

Stress-Free Portraits

Josh understands that most people feel a bit uneasy at the thought of "posed" photos. That’s why, for portraits and family groups, he ditches the stiff, awkward lineups in favour of a fun, relaxed energy. These sessions feel more like a casual hang-out than a formal production.

While he ensures couples get those beautiful, intentional shots worthy of a spot on the wall, he does so in a way that feels effortless. Most importantly, his streamlined approach ensures the "formals" are wrapped up quickly, getting everyone back to the party where they belong.

Brilliant photographer

Josh was great at our wedding. He was friendly and seamlessly moved around our guests. This meant we got some great casual shots, as well as the more posed ones. My favourite though is our confetti shot. He made everything feel so natural, and made sure we enjoyed the moments, rather than feeling like a photoshoot. I cannot recommend him highly enough

Highly recommend Josh for an excellent service!

Josh was friendly, skilled and discrete on our wedding day. He came as a second photographer as my dad was terminally ill and we wanted to capture as much as we could. Not only was Josh a supportive and responsive vendor to have with us on our wedding day, he also captured some incredible photos for us. Ones we’ll keep forever as a treasured memory. It was super easy to be photographed by him as he was so calm and reassuring - exactly what we needed for our first time in front of a ‘proper’ camera. He interacted with all of our guests and really felt more like a friend than a photographer! Would absolutely 100% recommend.

Perfect wedding photographer

Josh has such a calming presence that he really put my husband and I at ease on our wedding day. We wanted a very relaxed approach to our photos and Josh captured our day perfectly.
Couldn’t recommend enough!

Perfect Photographer in every way

Josh recently photographed our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with the service he provided. We were initially drawn to Josh's photography because of the vibrant colours and his relaxed style, and that's exactly what we received.
The engagement shoot was incredibly beneficial in helping us get comfortable in front of the camera and get to know Josh. He made everything feel so relaxed and natural.
On the wedding day, we couldn't have asked for more from Josh. He isn't the type of photographer to take control of the day or insist on specific photos; instead, he quietly captures natural moments, which was exactly what we wanted. So many of our guests commented on how great he was, and we can only echo those sentiments.
This was then topped off by the final photos, which we were absolutely thrilled with. They were everything we had hoped for and more.
Thank you so much, Josh, for being such an important part of our day. We would highly recommend his services.

Natural Wedding Photography

We hired Josh for our wedding in September, we could not recommend him more. From the day of booking right up until the delivery of our album he was exactly what we wanted. He listened to our needs and ideas and made some really helpful suggestions of his own. Nothing was too much trouble. Whilst we were really keen to have the staged group photos, once we saw the final products although we loved our group shots, and they were exactly what we asked for, our favourites have turned out to be the candid shots he took throughout the day. Josh was able to capture so many moments that we would otherwise have missed. Josh was punctual and friendly and not in the least bit imposing. For us he was the perfect choice.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
