About

Welcome, My name is Scott, a Kent based wedding photographer living in Whitstable. I specialise in a documentary/reportage style of photography, which means I focus on capturing real, honest, raw emotion throughout your whole wedding day. I do not believe a wedding should be one long photoshoot! It should be celebrated with festivity and excitement. Memories will be created and then re-lived through photography, that is why it is so important to remember the day just how it was!

Over the 8 years of being a full-time wedding photographer, and the 200+ weddings I have shot, my photography style has been described by clients and guests as relaxed, candid, unobtrusive, genuine and real. I have been told many times I am like a ninja with a camera, as I capture little moments that nobody even realised I was paying attention to.

I cover weddings across the whole of Kent and the Southeast including Whitstable, Canterbury, Maidstone, Ashford, Tunbridge Wells, London pretty much everywhere. I often travel to other parts of the UK and abroad to photograph weddings. Enquire and I can give you a bespoke quote.

Services offered

My pricing for wedding photography ranges from £1300 - £2700, with the majority of my couples booking me for a full-day coverage package for roughly £1750. I generally have 4 wedding photography packages.

Best supplier at our entire wedding

Scott was the first supplier we booked, and the best value for money. His professionalism, creativity, passion and energy were contagious. Our guests loved him as much as we did! His edits were fantastic, he worked harder than anyone else at the wedding, and I hope he expands to do other life events so we can book him to document other milestones. We couldn't have asked for more perfect photos, we're so happy with them.

Best photographer ever!

Scott what can I say… you were outstanding from start to finish, so calm, relaxed and exactly what we were looking for in someone to capture our special day. You went above and beyond to capture stunning natural photos, often when we didn’t even realise you were taking them! If you are looking for a photographer who is fun, friendly and takes amazing in the moment shots, this is your man. He even helped me to hook up my bustle when the bridesmaids couldn’t! Highly recommend, thank you again Scott for capturing our day so perfectly.

Amazing - highly recommend!

Scott has been amazing - start to finish! When we first met him online, he was professional and friendly. Throughout the booking process, he has always been very efficient at responding to emails and keeping us updated.

We met Scott for a trial shoot, as my now husband and I aren’t very comfortable in front of a camera. Scott was really friendly and gave us some direction/ideas but made it all feel really natural which resulted in some great shots! I also caught him taking a sneaky few when we weren’t looking, which again is something I really appreciate as I don’t like posed photos.

On the day of the wedding Scott was again great! He was helping out with the preparation, knew when to get out of the way when us girls were flapping to get ready and again just seamlessly fitted in and didn’t make anyone feel awkward. Some guests even asked me how I knew him and assumed he was a friend.

His pictures are amazing and have really captured the spirit of the day and all the little details that other people would miss. His photo booth also went down very well and we have some amazing photos from this too! We got the photos in a timely manner (just longer than a week) after the wedding, which is ideal as everyone is eager to see them.

Would highly recommend! Thanks so much Scott!

Best wedding photographer.

If you want the best wedding photos, Scotts your man! The entire process was smooth and efficient from start to finish. Throughout he was professional, calm, friendly, and patient. Even though it was a blistering cold day Scott trooped on enthusiastically and without complaint. To top it all off he took beautiful, heartwarming photos that captured this special day perfectly. Thank you Scott for making this day even more memorable. I can not recommend him highly enough.

STOP! Look no further for your photographer

What can we say about Scott that has not already been said??
Scott was amazing from first quoting and meeting to after the wedding and more. Both myself and my wife were not keen on having cameras pointed at us and being dragged everywhere for pictures on our special day which was one of the best things about Scott, it was like having a friend around (when you knew he was there, often you had no idea) He made us feel so relaxed and at ease. He knew our venue well so knew all the best places to capture shots we had spoken about, he is very creative and also open to ideas, including playground pirate ship photos and pumpkin head brides (yes those really happened!) All of our guests commented on how lovely Scott was and how friendly he is, not pushy to have photos like some photographers can be.
Scott captured everything about our day perfectly and we could not be happier with our decision to ask Scott to capture our day. The pictures and edits are second to none and we can't stop looking at them.
If you are looking for a photographer, please do not look any further, it will be the best decision you make booking Scott!!
Thank you so much Scott, love Mrs and Mrs Picton-Owen

You won't regret booking Scott for your wedding

We couldn't recommend Scott highly enough following his amazing service as our wedding photographer. Scott was an absolute pleasure to work with and so easy going from the start, he made us feel so at ease and provided invaluable advice regarding timings etc. which made our day run so smoothly. We particularly wanted Scott's documentary style for our wedding and certainly were not disappointed, the quality of Scott's images are amazing and he captured moments that we feel no one else would of done. Thank you Scott!!

Best wedding photographer

From start to finish Scott was fantastic. He was so organised and kept in touch throughout the organising process and was really responsive to messages, even giving us help on things like whether or not to wear our glasses on the day (we did and the anti glare on the lenses didn’t affect the photos at all).
On our wedding day Scott made everyone feel at ease, he managed to get all the shots that we had asked for without being pushy and took plenty of photos that we didn’t even know we wanted. Scott somehow managed to be everywhere and nowhere, we have no idea how he did it but has managed to take photos of multiple different moments that we are convinced were happening at the same time, he must be magic!
Scott got the first set of photos back to us the day after the wedding and the whole set (over 400) in just a few weeks. We are so grateful to him for all of his work and the memories that he captured, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second in recommending him as your wedding photographer.

Absolutely brilliant

We couldn't be happier with the service Scott provided us on our wedding day. Right from the start he was incredibly approachable and made us feel really relaxed. We aren't local to Scott, so conducted our discussions via zoom, which worked out really well. On the day Scott was really calm, which helped relax both of us. The photographs he took were amazing. What we particularly loved were the natural shots he took of everyone as we went through the day. He really managed to capture the atmosphere to a tee. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending Scott for your wedding photography.

5 Star Service - Absolutely Brilliant!

Scott was attentive, relaxed, organised & professional - simply brilliant! He made everyone feel at ease and photographed the formal shots quickly, without fuss. He was fantastic throughout the initial contact stages, meetings, on the day itself and afterwards when we needed to contact regarding prints and albums. Scott slotted into the day perfectly, not drawing attention but making sure everyone felt relaxed and comfortable being photographed. He is a friendly, professional photographer who gave advice and guidance in a subtle manner and helped the day to flow without any issues. The bridal party and guests commented on how fantastic he was throughout the day and how helpful he had been with suggestions - even tips or advice that wasn’t necessarily linked to the photographs! Scott is highly recommended and we couldn’t have asked for any more from him!

Wonderful day - Thank you Scott!

We were so pleased that Scott was able to be our wedding photographer, he was just amazing! His photos speak for themselves, they are just stunning, imaginative and creative. He captured the happiness and energy of our day so perfectly, not missing a moment. He was also a wonderful person to have around, just so friendly and upbeat. Scott made use feel completely comfortable from the moment we met him and definitely felt more like a friend at our wedding!

We absolutely love the photos and every time we look at them we relive our fantastic day. We would 100% recommend. Thanks so much Scott!

Best Photographer Book Scott he is awesome

We met Scott a year before our wedding and loved his relaxed - friendly approach. We are blown away by how good the photos are. He was the talking point of the wedding everyone saying he just blended in and what a great guy he was. He has the most amazing eye and got lots of natural photos which we will treasure forever. He is also brilliant with dogs we had 2 at the wedding and we could have a dog album too 🥰 thanks Scott I think you already have 1 couple from our wedding who want to book for 2023 as they were so impressed!

Fantastic Photographer!!

Scott was amazing from the moment we booked him until 9pm on our wedding night. Scott was flexible throughout the pandemic with our many re-bookings reassuring us that he would accommodate us. We met Scott at our venue prior to the wedding in August 2021 and went through various options and how the day would work with our photos. Scott was bloody fantastic on our wedding day so incredibly helpful , fun, friendly and produced the most amazing photo’s. Totally recommend Scott for your wedding photos - nice touch too that Scott allows you to make monthly instalments which helps with those big wedding costs!

Amazing wedding photographer!

We lost our original photographer two months before our wedding date but couldn’t be happier that we found Scott to take our photos instead. He was super organised in the run up to the date and always really responsive. On the day he was so friendly to us and all our guests and knew exactly where to be at all times to capture the best moments. The sneak peak of 30 or so photos he sends through the day after your wedding is such a nice surprise and the photos themselves were absolutely amazing! Would 100% recommend Scott for your wedding!!

Cannot recommend highly enough!

Scott absolutely smashed our wedding photography, he was totally approachable from day one, really receptive to our ideas, enthusiastic and so understanding regarding the problems surrounding rearranging our big day owing to Covid-19.

The pictures he took were superb - and he helped make the most of the thunder, lightening and absolute monsoon we had to deal with on the day! All of our guests commented on what a nice guy he was as well and he made them all feel at ease.

Post wedding, we've also been really impressed with how professional and well presented the photos and USB have been.

If you're looking for a great photographer who is fantastic value for money, look no further than Scott. Cheers mate!
