THE EXPERIENCE

Your wedding day matters, so does how it’s remembered.

Your day won’t follow a script—and neither will the photos. I’ll be there to document it as it unfolds, with a mix of relaxed portraits, real in-between moments, and quite likely some dad jokes too. This is a celebration, not a checklist.

I know what you’re going to say…

You really don't like having your picture taken, and you're dreading the photography on your wedding day. I understand and I'm exactly the same. (Possibly worse, actually!)

◆ You want to feel like yourself
◆ You’re worried about feeling awkward
◆ You want photos that feel real

You’ve found the WEDDING photographer for people that don’t want a wedding photographer!

“Trust me, you’re not the only one who feels weird about photos.”

Just like most of my past wedding clients, you're probably not a natural in front of the camera. So let's get past that now. My promise to you is that we'll all have a good time (yes, me too), a good laugh, and you might even *gasp* enjoy yourself a little bit.

Take a few minutes to look through my past weddings and client reviews and reassure yourself that if those folks were enjoying themselves, you just might too :)

DAYTIME - £850

  • You’re covered from the preparations before the ceremony to the start of the wedding breakfast. Up to around five hours coverage, and finished before around 5pm.

    Speeches can be included if they are before the meal, or add just £130 if you’d like them covered after the meal.

INTO THE EVENING TOO - £1225

  • My same daytime coverage but extended to around 8pm to catch the cake cutting, first dance and a bit of dance-floor action.

    Speeches will be covered before or after the meal, and we can arrange an extra evening photo session to catch a golden sunset or some dusky blues depending on the time of year and how lucky we get with the weather.

    You will receive digital images and a selection of prints as standard.

Extras:

Pre-Wedding Shoot - £150

A relaxed photo session before the big day—think of it as a little warm-up. We’ll head somewhere nice, have a wander and a chat, and take some natural shots along the way. Includes five digital images, with the option to add prints later.

Wedding Storybook - £380

A beautifully designed and professionally handmade album to tell the story of your day. Around 10"x10" in size, with your choice of leather-style or linen covers. You choose the images, and I’ll carefully create the layout for you.

PIP + ROB

“We wanted someone relaxed, fun, and unobtrusive—Matt was all that and more. He kept things running smoothly, made us feel completely comfortable, and delivered incredible photos and prints. Book Matt. You honestly won’t regret it.”

HARRIET + JASON

“Matt was amazing from start to finish. He put everyone at ease and captured beautiful documentary-style photos. He even worked brilliantly with our dog! We couldn’t have asked for better and would highly recommend him to anyone.”

JANE + KIER

“Matt, you have been exceptional from start to finish and we cannot thank you enough for giving us the most beautiful photographic memories of our wedding day. Your enthusiasm for what you do shone through every minute of the day and we cannot recommend you enough.”

SHELL + PHIL

“From first seeing Matt’s website to chatting about our vision, he made us feel at ease and knew what we wanted. He’s incredibly professional, full of energy, calm, and relaxed. He fitted in perfectly, took every opportunity to get the best shots, and nothing was too much to ask. The photos were phenomenal. We’d absolutely recommend him—he did a smashing job!”
