Wedding Photography Services

When it comes to your wedding day, I take a candid, documentary-style approach. This means your day unfolds naturally, while I quietly capture every fleeting moment – the laughter, the tears, and everything in between.

I offer a range of packages to suit your needs, whether you’re after ceremony-only coverage or full-day storytelling. Every photo is professionally edited and delivered in a variety of formats, including:

  • Online galleries

  • Luxury physical albums

  • High-quality prints

  • And more

When the weather (and venue) allows, I also love to use my drone to capture stunning aerial shots of you and your location—adding a unique and dramatic perspective to your wedding album.

Why Book With Me?

Let’s be honest—everyone wants beautiful wedding photos. But feeling relaxed in front of the camera with a total stranger? That’s not always easy.

That’s why many of my packages include a FREE Pre-Wedding Shoot. I get it—lots of couples feel awkward being photographed (I do too—my own wedding photos were a challenge!). But this shoot is all about breaking the ice, having a laugh, and helping you feel totally at ease.

By the time your big day arrives, we’ll have already met again for your wedding walk-through. You’ll feel completely comfortable, and I’ll know exactly what makes you tick. I won’t be a stranger with a camera—I’ll be someone you trust to tell your story.

Your wedding is never “just another job” to me. I bring genuine passion, experience, and a sense of fun to every celebration. Whether it’s helping calm the pre-ceremony jitters, pinning on a boutonnière, or joining in with the banter, I’m there to make the day stress-free and unforgettable.

But don’t just take my word for it—check out my reviews and hear directly from couples who’ve been there.

Let’s capture the real, the raw, and the ridiculously fun moments of your day.


Drop me a message—I’d love to hear all about your plans!

Amazing!!!

We hired karl to take pictures for our wedding. As a same sex couple, it can be abit nerve wracking trying to find a vendor who fits your style, and eases your nerves. Karl was amazing from the beginning, and so incredibly professional. I couldn't imagine our wedding day without karl now. He really made the day go so smoothly. I would highly recommend him, and we are SO glad we chose karl!

Brillent photography

Karl joined me ont he morning of my wedding. Advised me what shots he needed and how we would get them.
He helped with my dress when my mum was laceing it up and had all the tools on him even down to some scissors when my dress frayed.
He was patient threw out the day with us and our guests even at testing times.
He was professional and took all our wishes into consideration and took the shots we previously asked for on the day.
We had a short break in weather where we was able to get outside shots with a drone and Karl rallied everyone round and advised them where to stand.
I can’t wait to see my photos of my special day.
A huge Thankyou to Karl for his patience because of that was me I’d of chucked the camera at my guests haha.

Wedding photography

Karl was really friendly and approachable he put us both at ease during our day I would recommend him highly for anyone looking for a photographer. On the run up to the event he was quick to respond to any queries we had and was super patient and talked us through everything that would happen so we knew what to expect. His services are great value for money and we were able to split the payments over the months on the run up so we were not having to pay in one go. Alongside the wedding pictures he also did our engagement pictures as part of the package and they turned out amazing. All in all I’m glad we chose him for our day

Amazing! Highly recommended!

Karl has been amazing right from our first call. Kind, caring and actually listens! He has made the process of booking a photographer easy.
On our day, Karl was attentive and flexible. Working around family dynamics and the horrendous weather! He was snapping away all day and well into the evening but wasn't intrusive.
We honestly loved having Karl with us and felt like he was part of the family and friends we had attending.
There was never any pressure to book with Karl which was something that we really liked and he has been a calming influence for us both on the morning getting ready.
Our advice is to just give him a call and have a chat!
You won't find anyone better!

Our special day

From first meeting Karl he was very attentive. The communication throughout was good. Karl offered a pay monthly scheme too which made the payments easier.

Karl asked us what we wanted. We wanted a few standard pics but the rest we wanted natural pics of everyone. This was exactly what Karl did for us. He was very patient with everyone and gave us advice on what would look good. Karl was very laid back with us and our guests and for the photos on request from our guest, Karl didn’t hesitate to support this.

I really enjoyed working with Karl and would recommend his services in a heart beat. Karl even came fully equipped with bridal advice and hook and eye to help with my dress!

Thanks for everything and making our day relaxed and fun.

Highly recommended!!!

We first met Karl at my friend's wedding and because of how he was and the pictures he took we booked him for our wedding. When we booked we have a video call and he explained everything and the packages and products we could have. We highly recommend Karl. He couldn't do enough for us. On the morning of our wedding he gave us a call to check we are okay, he instantly makes you feel at ease. He was calm and explained the process all the way through. He went above and beyond on our wedding day. Gave tips and advice on standing, posing and even on how to get your boobs in the dress properly! 😂 He really did help in keeping me and the groom calm throughout our wedding encouraging us to take in every moment. Our guests all found him lovely, he was friendly and again put our guests at ease. Nothing was too much to ask of him and we are so grateful that we picked him to do our photography. Our friend even booked him for her wedding!
We appreciate what he did for us so much!

Our wedding day

Karl was professional from the very start
We booked our wedding like most couples 2 years in advance when we found Karl on social media he explained to us that we could pay each month up to our wedding day this was so helpful for us as it was fully paid well before our wedding so one less thing to worry about.
Karl can and done an engagement photo shoot and made a wonderful guest book from our photo shoot and all our guests commented on how great that was and something a little different than other guests books . Karl also came to meet us at the venue and had a walk through to see the best places for our photos, I would recommend Karl to everyone looking for a photographer great service, ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing!!!

Karl was very honest and open from the beginning. We had a video call and gave us all the information needed and there was never any pressure to go with him. We had plenty of meeting and he was always available to chat and answer all of our questions. On the day he helped us both out massively giving us tips and tricks for everything he was very calm and attentive to little details to make sure everything went perfectly. Couldn’t recommend anyone else for the job can’t wait to see the final pictures.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
