Wedding Photography With the Romance, Elegance and Captivating 60's Colour Film Look and Feel

When I started photography in the 80's it was still film. I always used the older types of film like Fuji 400h or Kodak Portra. I just loved the "look" they had - soft colours, lower contrast and beautiful character. I still love this!

Which is why I have spent years perfecting this "look". I use cameras that value image quality over features, I use lenses that give photos with character rather than crazy sharpness, I edit photos in Lightroom in a way to accentuate the softer tones and less harsh colours of the old film photos.

In short I give my couples photos that are timeless and romantic and full of character.

My approach on the day goes beyond traditional wedding photography. I blend in with you and your guests and discreetly wait for moments and a story to tell. I ensure I'm in the right place at the right time to get the best photos throughout the whole day and I only use prime lenses as their image quality is better than zooms so quietly move arround getting shots.

We'll spend a few minutes getting some "created" rather than posed photos of you as a couple as after all this is the day you're both looking your absolute best.

Each photo is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring a timeless and elegant representation of your love story.

To provide the highest level of personalized service, I limit my bookings to just 30 weddings a year. This allows me to dedicate the necessary time and attention to every couple, from the initial consultation to the final delivery of beautifully edited images. With numerous wedding awards and memberships in prestigious photographic societies, my work is recognized for its quality and artistry.

If you are looking for a wedding photographer who can offer a high-end, artistic experience, combined with a relaxed, "no drama" approach I invite you to explore my portfolio and connect with me.

Let’s create something beautiful together.

The Unnoticed Photographer

We really wanted someone to photograph our day and give us great photos but we didn't want any faff or posing or interferring with anything. Someone recommended Allen and he ws perfect! Blended in, no fuss, and unnoticed. Perfect! Thanks Allen ;-) Beth and John

Great Photographer and a Nice Chap Too!

Our wedding was in January and I'd heard that it's difficult to get good photos as it's dark so early - Allen amazed us with beautiful photos even though it was dark really early. Very pleased:-)

Exactly what we wanted

We went into looking for a photographer very nervous and wondering if it was something we needed. Safe to say, we are so thrilled with what Allen was able to do for us on our day. He was fantastic with all our guests and my niece especially. I can't stand my photo being taken usually but he made it fun and unimposing. We have a lovely album and lots of photos that are already treasured.

Incredible photographer

We have recently got married, February 2024. Allen was recommended to us by some friends and we was so pleased he was. Being a winter wedding we was a little bit worried we wouldn’t get amazing photos, we had nothing to worry about. Thankfully the weather held out but he did a great job at working with the lighting and just captured our day so brilliantly. We was also lucky enough to be a runner up in his yearly competition so received quite a discount on his package.

Thank you so much Allen!

Fantastic photos that we will enjoy for life.

We really liked Allen. We met him for an engagement photo shoot that lasted approx. 20 mins and when we got the photos back they looked stunning. We were also surprised at how relaxed we looked in them as we are both very camera shy. We booked him for our wedding after seeing the engagement photos as we knew that if he could capture photos like that in 20 mins the wedding photos would be stunning! And they really were. Allen is incredibly relaxed and easy to work with. He did such a good job of being right in the action when it was needed e.g. for the group photos and the couple shots but then keeping in the background for the rest of the day. There are so many amazing photos that I didn't even realise were being taken, which is just what we wanted really as they all looked very natural and he really captured the essence of the day. Allen is quite gentle and very relaxed when taking photos, he will give you a bit of prompting and suggest different ways to stand etc but then will often leave you to it so the photos will always look very 'you'. I definitely recommend! We love our wedding photos very much and really enjoyed Allen's company on our big day.

Fantastic Wedding Photographer

Allen did an incredible job of capturing a wide slection of candid shots of both the bride and groom, and the guests. We also did the traditinal group photos. Communication has been excellent before and after the wedding. Highly reccomend.

Got great relaxed pictures of my guests

Really was impressed that Allen recorded the ceremony and got this to me the day after our wedding which was really impressive. Sad not to have his expertise for smaller group shots but meant more "moments" were captured.
