Hi, I’m Martin, a professional wedding photographer and filmmaker.
Behind the Lens:
From a young age, I’ve been captivated by storytelling. How one image can hold so many layers of connection and meaning?
My passion for natural storytelling and documenting important moments evolved into capturing weddings through photography and video.
To me, your wedding day isn’t just a single event; it’s a chapter in your lifelong story. My role is to preserve that chapter with honesty and heart, so every frame feels timeless, emotional, and true.
My Style & Approach:
My style is loose editorial which is a relaxed blend of documentary-style storytelling and elegant editorial portraiture. I capture natural, unscripted moments alongside timeless couple and group portraits that never feel forced.
I take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure every couple receives my full attention and creative energy.
Many of my couples first meet me through engagement shoots and later go on to book me for their wedding day — something I take as the biggest compliment. Couples often tell me they felt comfortable quickly, trusted the process, and loved seeing moments they didn’t even realise were happening.
I primarily use digital on full frame with modern art lenses but I also have a wide array of analogue gear which clients can purchase as add-ons for an extra vintage/nostalgic feel to some parts of the day.
Above all, I aim to make the entire experience relaxed, memorable, and enjoyable.
A typical full-day wedding includes 800+ hand-edited images, each thoughtfully curated to reflect the emotion and rhythm of your day. Explore the Real Weddings section to see examples of consistent quality across different cultures and venues.
Professional Experience:
I’ve had the honour of capturing 100s of weddings across the UK and abroad. This ranges from London’s iconic town halls and countryside manors to vibrant celebrations in Germany and breathtaking Haciendas in Mexico.
Wherever your story unfolds, I’ll capture it with care and creativity. Nothing means more to me than when a couple feel as though their day was documented with authenticity and emotion.
Recognition & Reviews:
I’m honoured to hold a 5.0★ rating on Hitched with over 100 verified five-star reviews across Hitched, Google, and other platforms. I’ve also received multiple award nominations for my wedding and couple's work for which I’m deeply grateful for, but nothing means more than a couple’s joy when they relive their day through my lens.
Pricing / Packages:
Every wedding is unique, so I offer tailored collections that can include:
-
Full-day and multi-day coverage
- Micro weddings / mini town hall bookings (e.g. 1-4 hr durations)
-
Engagement or pre-wedding shoots
-
Drone footage and highlight films
- Full feature productions
-
Luxury albums and print collections
-
Second photographer/videographer for extended coverage
Full-day collections typically start from £1,200, with weekday and off-season rates available. Pricing varies based on date, location, and coverage, and I’ll provide bespoke options after a relaxed discovery call or coffee chat.
Next Steps...
If you’re looking for honest, timeless photography or video and someone who’ll help you feel relaxed, confident, and fully present on your wedding day, I’d love to hear about your plans and help you in any way that I can.
