Documentary with a twist! That's our style...

Awaken Images is a family-owned and operated wedding photography business based in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. Matt and John make up the talented father-and-son team behind this creative company. Over the last 10 years they have shot at many locations all over East Anglia and are recommeded supplies at All Saints Hotel, Fornham All Saints, near Bury St Edmunds and Hockwold Hall in Norfolk.

Using a documentary style with a twist, they love capturing authentic smiles and natural reactions on camera. Daughter and sister Rachel also lends a hand whenever the duo requires extra assistance and cover. Working together as a family, they proudly serve weddings in East England and London.

Services Offered

Awaken Images offers a variety of services, including photography, videography, and photo booths. Matt even has a drone licence which allows him to take unique aerial wedding shots. New for 2024 they have added a content creation service.

Whatever option you choose, you can expect Matt and John to give your event the attention and care it deserves. They can also offer a sweet cart rental as an add-on to your wedding photography package.
