About

Last update: December 2025
Hi, I’m Tess, a South London-based wedding photographer with a documentary approach and an editorial edge. I photograph weddings exactly as they unfold, the laughter, the chaos, and the quiet moments that make your day yours.
My work is mostly candid and natural, but I also love creating couple portraits and group shots that feel effortless and genuine. When it comes to the more directed parts of the day, I work closely with my couples, sharing ideas, reference images and Pinterest boards in advance so we’re on the same page about what you’d love captured. These portraits are shaped by your ideas and energy, so they still feel true to you.
I’ve photographed weddings across London, the UK, and abroad, capturing everything from small, intimate ceremonies to big, lively celebrations. I love working in the city, but I'll take an abroad beach wedding any day! My goal is always the same: to tell your story honestly and creatively.

Meet the team
Hey, my name is Tess :) I am a trained and qualified documentary photographer with nearly 10 years of experience in wedding photography.
My diverse background in documentary and art-led training inspires my wedding photography with a distinctive flair. I eschew cheesy clichés and instead focus on real, unique moments, from intimate to wonderfully weird. I love to tell a story through my photographs, and with a sense of humour and an observant nature, I am able to capture those subtle, often-missed gems as well as your traditional shots.
I pride myself on being extremely understanding and very open-minded. Whether your wedding plans are traditional or offbeat, large or small, I'm here to seamlessly blend into your day.
