Let’s be honest: not everyone loves being in front of the camera. In fact, many couples dread the thought of endless, posed wedding photos, especially if the idea of standing still and “holding that smile” makes you want to run the other way. If that sounds like you, then we’re already a match made in heaven!

I specialise in photographing couples who would rather not be photographed. If you feel awkward in front of the camera or can’t stand the idea of stiff, staged shots, I’m here to tell you—you’ve got nothing to worry about.

I Keep It Moving


One thing my couples always tell me they love? The fact that I keep things moving. No awkward, frozen moments where you’re stuck in a pose wondering if your smile looks right or if your arm is in the right place. Instead, I move quickly, capturing real moments and natural interactions. We’ll be walking, talking, and laughing, not standing still for ages like statues.

You’re not just stuck standing around; we’ll be out enjoying your day. Whether we’re walking through a beautiful garden or sneaking around the back of the venue for a quiet couple’s moment, there’s always motion, energy, and spontaneity. I’m all about keeping things light, fun, and moving swiftly so you don’t even have time to feel awkward.

I’ll Keep You Distracted—In a Good Way

Hate the idea of awkward silence while you’re being photographed? Good news—I’m a talker! I can chat for not just Britain, but the world, and I’ve found that this keeps my couples feeling comfortable and at ease. We’ll talk about anything and everything—your wedding, your dog, that last holiday you took. You won’t even realise I’m snapping photos half the time because we’ll be too busy laughing and enjoying the moment.

This helps to get those natural, candid shots that everyone loves. You won’t be standing there wondering, "What do I do with my hands?" because I’ll be keeping the conversation flowing. Before you know it, the session is over, and you’re left with stunning photos that don’t feel forced or fake.

Fast-Paced, Fun, and Full of Life


If you’re someone who’s easily bored or just doesn’t like standing still for too long, I get it! I’m all about speed and efficiency. We’ll get through your photo sessions quickly without cutting corners, so you can enjoy the rest of your wedding day. You’ll never feel like the photos are dragging on forever because I know how to get the shots I need, and then we’re off to the next exciting moment.

Plus, I love to incorporate movement into my photos, a quick walk hand-in-hand, or a fun run into the sunset. These types of shots not only look great, but they also feel more like “you,” capturing the authentic, in-the-moment magic of your day.

The Bottom Line? No Stiff, Uncomfortable Poses


If you’re a couple who hates being photographed, working with me means you won’t have to worry about stiff, awkward poses or feeling uncomfortable in front of the camera. I’ll keep things moving, keep you chatting, and most importantly, keep you relaxed so you can truly enjoy your day.

Your wedding photos should feel natural, authentic, and fun. And that’s exactly what I aim to deliver.

So, if you’re ready for a wedding photographer who works fast, keeps it light, and makes you forget the camera’s even there—let’s chat! You deserve photos that capture the real, beautiful moments of your day without feeling like a chore, and I’d love to help make that happen for you.
