I am an award winning Buckinghamshire, England based Wedding Photographer covering the UK. Capturing your Wedding day in a soft, romantic and natural style.
I started up my photography business back in 2019, and immediately fell in love with weddings. The emotions, the joy, the happiness is a feeling that is infectious, and to be welcomed into a couples most special day is an absolute honour that I treasure with every single couple that book me. I am a documentary, unobtrusive story teller. I thrive on creating a relaxed and enjoyable experience resulting in natural, high quality photographs that capture real moments and memories.
Before the day?
Firstly get in touch - I'd love to hear from you. I offer a consultation meeting with me first so you get to meet me and have a chat to make sure that we connect and you get to ask any questions you might have before booking. From the moment you book I want you to know that you are in safe hands.I will email you over 3 helpful guides with your wedding planning, a bridal details checklist and a handy bridal morning timeline guide. The other 2 meetings are roughly 6 month prior to the day as a catch up and see how the planning and everything is going, then the last one is in the weeks leading up so I can get all the information and details from you for your day.
On the day?
On the day I try and ensure you day runs as smoothly as possible to the timeline you have created - I am not just a photographer, I also come with the side job titles of baggage chauffeur, jewellery assistant, wedding dress train carrier, umbrella holder, safety pin and tissue dispenser, and I am sure many more. I am present but in the background throughout your day capturing all your special moments, and the moments you don't even realise are happening. Everything is documentary other than the formals which we will run through with gentle guidance so you both feel comfortable throughout.

We had an amazing wedding with Sian as our photographer and a key part of our day. From early communication through to planning, the wedding day and sharing, Sian has been professional, communicative and easy to engage with. Her photos are a wonderful window to view our wedding through and she beautifully captured everything from the prep, formals to the fun and unexpected moments.
Not only was she an amazing photographer but she was fundamental in helping with the running of the day, helping to seamlessly rearrange things when timings changed, working with us and the venue to get the shots we wanted along with giving us the time to enjoy time with our guests.
She really went above and beyond helping with requests outside of just being a photographer and we loved having her be part of our day.

Amazing wedding photographer!
Sian was absolutely amazing, throughout our whole wedding planning journey and especially on our big day.
During the planning she was a huge help with our wedding timeline, helping us piece together the perfect day with plenty of time for us to have fun as well as photos.
We wanted to be able to relax and enjoy the day without too much structure around the photos or needing to be away from our guests for long periods of time but we still wanted great photos. Sian managed this perfectly on the day, she blended into the background capturing every detail and emotion throughout the day, but she was also able to step in to give a little direction when it was needed. Sian was so much more than just our photographer; she was a calming presence while we all got ready, she worked with the venue staff to make sure our day was running as planned and even helped fix my veil a few times when it blew off in the wind! I’m sure she was busy behind the scenes with more things that we weren’t even aware of.
As well as perfectly capturing our day including all the small details, raw emotions and big moments, I know Sian was also an integral part of making our day absolutely perfect! We’re so happy we found her!

Amazing wedding photographer
We booked Sian to be our wedding photographer in August 2022 at the Cherwell Boathouse in Oxford. She was absolutely amazing! The photos are better than we ever imagined, we love them and can’t wait to get our wedding book (although whittling down the images to our favourites will be very hard!). I was very anxious about being photographed as I normally feel very awkward in front of a camera but she really put me at ease. All round amazing and would 100% recommend, and I would defintely use again if I needed another photographer in future. Thank you Sian!

The best photographer ever!
I highly recommend Sian, she is so calm and lovely to have around on the day, she puts you at ease and captures all the little moments that are so special. She’s also fun and a genuinely nice person to have around!
We used Sian to photograph our newborn a few years ago and knew we wanted her services for our special day. It was one of the best decisions we made. Our pictures are stunning and I couldn’t be more grateful to Sian. Our wedding album is beautifully made, our biggest challenge was deciding on which of our lovely pictures to include.
My particular favourites are our sunset pictures and most of them with my daughter. Sian was also great with a toddler who didn’t really want to play ball!
A huge thank you and if you are considering booking Sian, 100% do it. You won’t be disappointed and she will help to capture your special day perfectly.

Sian was amazing!!!
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer In Sian! She was attentive, supportive and listened to everything we asked for right down to final details! On the day Sian was organised and helped with things she shouldn’t have even needed too. If I could recommend anyone it would be Sian and can’t thank her enough for the moments she captured on our special day!! Thank you!!!!!

More than a photographer
Sian was amazing from start to finish. Her communication was amazing, always getting back to you within a day. She helped with other wedding related things like organising the timeline etc. On yhe day suan became more than a photographer, she helped do up dresses, organise people and even made sure I had everything I needed. She makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera and at times you don't even realise She is there. So many of our guests said how great Sian was. Her photos are gorgeous and she really has an eye for detail. Will definitely recommend sian in the future and use her for family shoots.
All our best, Kerry-Anne and Aaron x

Beyond brilliant
Sian is/was absolutely brilliant.
From our first meeting to our catch ups we had constant contact and speedy replies throughout our wedding planning.
On the day Sian kept everything so relaxed and actually kept me quite calm. She ran the day so efficiently and kept everyone in order (even the dogs when they wouldn’t sit still)
We wanted a really casual day, really candid shots and Sian went above and beyond to make sure we weren’t just stood in-front of the camera posing ball day long.
We received some sneak peaks the day after the wedding which was lovely, from what we have seen so far we can’t wait to receive the full gallery.
All our guests commented on how lovely and funny Sian was. We could recommend her enough And will definitely be using her again for family photos etc.
Thank you so much Sian you were amazing and we appreciate all the hard work.

Incredible
Easily the best experience with Sian as our wedding photographer on Monday 29th August 2022. Sian is super personable and very talented at what she does. From 9am through to 9pm all she did was make sure she pictured the best moments. Sian made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. Not only was Sian amazing at getting the best shots she organised the guests, helped me when things didn’t go to plan, helped sort cutting the cake, first dance, sparkler arch, when kids needed entertaining with showing them her cameras and much much more.
I am so glad that I stumbled across her photographer on Instagram and when we first had our meeting there was no pressure to agree to her services and we automatically clicked. I can’t express how professional & knowledgeable with what pictures to get to, the lighting & the backgrounds. Sian really become part of the wedding party as a friend, it always defo helps she’s also just been married and knows exactly whats what. I will continue to use Sian in the future hopefully for more shoots not just wedding as we’re finally Mr & Mrs
Sian you are a wonderful human and made us feel so comfort and at ease thank you for making us feel amazing & having the most beautiful wedding photos for forever memories

The Perfect Wedding Photographer!
The experience with Sian was lovely from start to finish. Sian was warm, friendly and professional, and happy to adapt to our personal needs. In fact, one guest couldn't believe it when he saw pictures of himself dancing and commented "I didn't even see her taking the photos!" Sian has such a non-intrusive presence but is able to capture the atmosphere of the day with beauty and flair. We are delighted with our photos and would highly recommend!

Incredible Wedding Photographer
I cannot express enough how amazing Sian was at photographing our wedding. Sian was professional, energetic and on the ball the whole day. From getting ready in the morning, to throwing the bouquet at night - Sian captured every moment in such a beautiful way. The photos were delivered quickly and look incredible. I'll cherish these photos forever and would highly recommend Sian as your wedding photographer.
