My style and approach
Unobtrusively documenting the story of your day as it happens.
Capturing real smiles, happy tears, big hugs, fun, laughter and love!
I'm based in Warwickshire and photograph weddings all over The Midlands and the UK. I've been photographing weddings since 2014 and have been lucky enough to document so many beautiful love stories. I describe my style as storytelling. I document the moments of your day as they happen, as unobtrusively as possible.

From the morning preparations...
to the dancefloor shenanigans!
I love being there to capture the full story of your day, so all-day coverage fits around your timings, not set hours. I usually begin around two hours before your ceremony, during the morning preparations, and stay right through to your evening reception. And I don’t rush off as soon as the first dance is done, I love capturing some dancefloor fun too!

Beautiful portraits without missing the moments that matter!
I promise not to keep you away from the celebrations for too long. Those candid moments with your friends and family are just as important as the big epic portraits. I want you to enjoy your day with your favourite people, not spending hours posing for photos!
​
Around fifteen minutes during your drinks reception is usually all it takes to create some beautiful portraits. Couples also often tell me how much they love this little moment together to pause and take it all in.
​
If your timeline allows, I love getting a few more portraits later in the day, usually after the food and speeches, as this is often when there is that dreamy golden light as the sun sets. If it’s dark before I leave, I might steal you away from the dancefloor for a few minutes for a creative night portrait too (worth it, I promise!)
"We're awkward in front of the camera!"
Don't worry, so many couples tell me this! I keep couple portraits relaxed and natural, offering gentle guidance when needed. But that doesn't mean cheesy grins or awkward poses. Taking authentic photos that truly reflect you as a couple is more my style.

Group photos with your VIPs
I know how important it is to have photos with your favourite people! But I do recommend keeping your group photo list as short as possible. Around 10-15 is often the sweet spot. If there's a really long list to get through, it takes time away from me getting those natural, candid moments.
​
​
Little details matter
I love photographing all the little details of a wedding day. You put so much time and effort into planning everything, finding the perfect decor, choosing beautiful flowers and picking the tastiest cake. No little detail will be forgotten!

More than just a photographer...
One of the biggest compliments couples give me is that I was more than just a photographer; it felt like having another friend there on the day. I don't want you to feel like a stranger with cameras is turning up on your wedding morning, which is why I take the time to get to know you and hear all about your plans. You’ll also receive my wedding guide, which is full of helpful photography advice, plus tips and tricks I’ve picked up over the years.
​
On the wedding day, I know that little unexpected moments can happen, and I’m always happy to help wherever I can. I’ve helped with countless fiddly dress buttons and pinned on plenty of buttonholes over the years. I always bring my little emergency kit, which has everything from plasters to a sewing kit. I’ve stitched buttons, fixed a bridesmaid dress when the zip broke, and even saved the day during a ceremony when the pen to sign the register had disappeared!

"Amy took time to get to know us and it was like having a friend there on the day"
I also offer highlight films! Filmed seamlessly alongside your photography (you won't even know I'm swapping between the two), I capture little snippets of video throughout the day and edit them to licensed music, creating a short video of your wedding day’s best bits. Short and sweet, and full of all the feels that take you right back to your day.
"If you are looking for a down-to-earth photographer that will ensure you have every detail of your day captured beautifully, Amy is the one for you!"
The Experience
From checking my availability to receiving your photos... here is what to expect when you book me as your wedding photographer
1. Get in touch and let's chat!
The first step is to check if I have your date free by getting in touch here. I’ll check my diary and let you know if I’m available for your wedding date, and I’ll send over my e-brochure. I also offer a Zoom meeting (or a phone call if you prefer). This is a chance for us to meet, chat about your plans, and for you to ask any questions you might have.
2. Securing your date
If you decide I'm the photographer for you... YAY! The booking process is really simple, and everything is done online. First, I’ll send you a booking form to complete, followed by a contract to sign. There is a £250 booking fee to secure your date. Once the contract is signed and the booking fee is paid, the date is officially yours!
3. A little 'wedmin'
The remaining balance is due 4 weeks before your wedding. Being organised ahead of your wedding day is really important to me, so a few weeks before, I’ll send you an online questionnaire to fill out. This gives me all the key details about your day: locations, your timeline and group photo list.
4. Wedding day!
Yay! It's wedding time! You enjoy your day, while I photograph it all for you in my storytelling style.

5. Newlyweds – What's next?
A few days after the wedding, I’ll send some sneak peeks to keep you going while I work on the rest of your images. Your full gallery will be ready within 8 weeks. Your photos will be delivered in a beautiful, password-protected online gallery, where you can download, share and order prints and photo albums.
"Amy's photos were exactly what we wanted. They were so natural and truly reflected the day. Amy completely put us at ease and went above and beyond what we expected. The photos are a beautiful memory of our special day."
