My style: It's a bit of a mix, because a wedding isn’t just one thing. Most of the time I’m in full-on reportage mode, catching the raw emotion, and all the small details that make the day yours. I’ll make sure to nail the all-important family shots (without it feeling like a military operation), and we’ll take a few minutes for some relaxed couples portraits—the kind with a bit of "wow-factor" that make the most of your venue’s backdrop.
My promise: I’ll make sure you look fricken awesome whilst bringing a creative and classic element, with a tonne of natural and documentary style moments. No whispering "vegetables" for fake giggles, no awkward posing, and zero jargon. Just honest, high-quality photos that look like you.
If you want a photographer who feels more like a guest with a camera than a ‘I’m the main character’ stage manager, we’re going to get along famously.

Natural, Creative & Award Winning Wedding Photography
I’m Steven, and I’m guessing you’re just looking for someone to take great photos of your wedding?
The No-Fluff approach:
I’m not here to turn your day into a six-hour editorial shoot or make you stare longingly into a bush. I’m after the stuff that actually matters: the chaotic "where’s the prosecco?" morning energy, the "holy shit we’re doing this" look at the altar, and those first glorious drinks where you finally get to breathe. I’ll capture the details you spent months obsessing over, the belly-laugh speeches, and the messy crying you didn't even realise was happening.
We’ll get some "hey-we-look-great" portraits without the stiff mannequin poses, then I’ll fade into the background while you eat. But I’m not heading home early. I’ll be right back in the thick of it for the questionable dance moves and the sweaty "don't-tag-me-in-this" party shots that prove you actually had a killer time.
