Hi, I'm James, A multi-award-winning, documentary wedding photographer.
After photographing countless weddings, I've come to realise that everybody (regardless of how much they like or dislike being photographed) loves to re-live their wedding through their photographs. No matter how many weeks, months or years have passed since the wedding your wedding photographs need to be so vivid that they can depict all of those moments from your big day and bring it all flooding back. This is what I do.
Your wedding day is supposed to be nothing less than a fairytale, where you soak in every single moment and have a genuine flow of emotions. If you get stressed or overwhelmed or feel like you are doing things that you don't want to do then it will significantly impact your ability to enjoy your day. That's why you need a photographer who doesn't just take good photographs, you need somebody who picks up on social queues and can read people so you don't get torn away from your friends or interrupted mid-conversation to do a thousand varieties of the same photograph. This is another one of my key skills.
My primary focus is to capture your wedding from a documentary perspective. Unscripted interactions can include the tearful embrace between you and your mother, the loud laughter shared with your friends, and the stolen glance of love between you and your partner. These moments genuinely define your day, and I have a knack for immortalising these moments with my camera. In saying that, we will still pose for some photographs because you will be getting an incredible photographer, but I understand the need to let your wedding breathe and not take it over.
"It is your wedding, not my photoshoot".
An Investment in Memories
Your wedding photographs are more than just beautiful, they are a priceless investment of memories that will last a lifetime. Years from now, these photographs will transport you back to your wedding day's sights, sounds, and emotions. They will become treasured heirlooms, shared with your family, friends and even your children, showcasing the essence of your love story.
I truly believe that choosing me is an investment. I take that responsibility seriously, ensuring every image captures your special day's raw beauty and emotions. You can trust me to document your story with artistry and care, creating a visual narrative that will only increase in value to you as time goes on.
Why me?
I'm an award-winning, highly motivated, and creative documentary wedding photographer with in-depth knowledge of perceiving moments and capturing them with my lens. I ensure that the quality of my imagery is amalgamated with bright and vibrant colours, and my airy signature-style edits add a unique artistic flair.
I think the wedding day belongs to you. So, I'll let you relax and I will focus more on natural, relaxed photography. These candid pictures do not include stiff postures, frowning faces, or forced smiles. Instead, my images tell a story from angles that you didn't witness on the wedding day.
So, if you want to relive the beautiful golden memories of your big day long after the event, get in touch!
