Last update: January 2025

I'm Steve, a documentary wedding photographer based in Hessle, East Yorkshire. I specialise in capturing real, unscripted moments—those genuine smiles, fleeting glances, and emotions that make your wedding day truly yours.

With years of experience in the wedding industry, I know how to blend into the background while making sure every important moment is beautifully documented. My approach is relaxed and unobtrusive, so you can focus on enjoying your day without feeling like you're constantly in front of a camera.

I offer a range of packages that can be tailored to suit your needs. My most popular option covers everything from the ceremony to the first dance, with 350+ professionally edited images to look back on for years to come. Need extra coverage? No problem—I’m happy to discuss additional hours or travel arrangements.

If you're looking for a wedding photographer who captures the day as it naturally unfolds, without forced poses or awkward staging, let's have a chat. You can also check out my Google reviews to see what past couples have said about working with me.

Let’s create something unforgettable together.

Wedding Lazaats Cottingham

We held our wedding and hired Steve to be our photographer. His communication before, during and our Wedding as been exceptional and I highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a Wedding photographer in the Hull or surrounding areas.

His invoicing system in brilliant also and easy to use.

Before the wedding he called us to ask how we wanted the day to go and what pictures we wanted for our day. He called us the day before the wedding to see if they was any changes to the day.

During the wedding he was brilliant and you would not even know he was there.

The pictures he has taken are amazing and we ordered a USB in a decorative box which is great also.

I cannot describe in words how good Steve is at his job and you will not be disappointed if you hire him.
