Hi, I'm Charles, as a passionate Photographer dedicated to capturing life's special moments. I focus on high-impact photography for high-impact events. Whether it's a big event, an everyday scene, or a unique location, I love taking photos that tell a story.


Delivering the best possible shot is my top priority. I take pride in offering customer service that is exceptional and ensuring a seamless, enjoyable experience for you.


With the skills and experience to handle almost any type of photography, I'm ready to capture your cherished moments.
Now, why should you entrust me with your big day or event?


Beyond my passion, I put you, the customer, first. I'll address any questions or concerns, creating a relaxed atmosphere so you can just unwind and enjoy your event, knowing your memories are in safe hands.


I also have a policy of never deleting captured files. Years down the line, if you lose your photos, just reach out to me, and I'll provide them again. No moments lost!


Transparency and professionalism are key to my work. Every project comes with an invoice and a contact for mutual protection.

I’m based in Hertford, Hertfordshire, but I cover events worldwide.
If you have an upcoming project or event that needs a seasoned photographer, please fill out the contact form on my website or give me a call. I look forward to discussing the details and capturing the essence of your special moments.
As I always say, 'I'm a photographer, not a salesman, so I focus on capturing moments rather than selling them.

Photos by Charles - Wedding Review

Charles was a great photographer to work with from start to finish. He was professional, easygoing, and blended into the day seamlessly—never intrusive, but always in the right place at the right time. He captured everything from the big moments to the small, in-between ones that really made the day feel special. The photos came out beautifully: natural, candid, and exactly our style. If you’re looking for someone reliable, talented, and low-stress to work with, we’d definitely recommend Charles.

My wedding

What wonderful, natural beautiful pictures I had from Charles.
My husband and myself are not the easiest to deal with when it comes to time and organisation. Charles got used to early on haha.
The pictures are amazing and the moments he caught are unforgettable....

Perfectly captured and edited photos, with friendly and timely service

Charles was very easy to work with and took our guidance onboard very well - he also brought his excellent professionalism and creative angle to our wedding day photos. We absolutely would recommend his services as we were very happy with the photos and how they came out. Price is friendly, service was friendly too. Thank you!

Wedding day

Charles was there for our big day early to make sure he didn’t miss any photos shots from the start. and making sure us and guests were ok and making everyone feel comfortable.
Very professional and took so many photos so he didn’t miss any part of the day.
Very pleased when it come to see the outcome of the photos.
Would definitely recommend

I’m Charles, 32 and based in Hertford. Photography is my passion, it’s how I express myself and connect with the world around me. There’s something special about being behind the lens, capturing the little moments that often go unnoticed.

I’ve spent years developing my style, which leans toward relaxed, candid storytelling. Whether it’s weddings, events, or everyday life, I love being part of genuine, emotional experiences and freezing them in time.

Outside of photography I'm an ex-DJ, and someone who values . I’m neurodivergent, creative, and always looking for new ways to grow, both personally and professionally.
