If you’re looking for a Staffordshire wedding photographer who captures real moments without awkward posing or forced smiles, you’re in the right place.
I photograph weddings across Staffordshire in a relaxed, documentary style blending into your day when needed, stepping in with gentle guidance when it matters, and fully embracing the energy when the dance floor kicks off.
From elegant stately homes like Sandon Hall to modern garden venues and countryside barns, Staffordshire offers an incredible mix of wedding settings and I love working across them all.
Your wedding day should never feel like a photoshoot.
It should feel like your wedding.
My style is documentary-first. That means:
Real reactions
Genuine laughter
Natural interactions
No stiff line-ups
No awkward posing
I focus on the moments happening naturally around you the nerves before the ceremony, the proud looks during speeches, the chaos on the dance floor.
But documentary doesn’t mean hands-off.
When it’s time for couple portraits, I’ll guide you in a relaxed way so you feel comfortable and confident without feeling staged.
If timelines slip, I stay calm.
If the weather changes, I adapt.
If the party goes wild, I’m in the middle of it capturing the energy properly.
If you’d like to understand more about how I work, you can read about the full wedding photography experience here.
I’ve photographed (and filmed) weddings across a variety of Staffordshire venues, including:
Sandon Hall
Pendrell Hall
Thorpe Garden
Weston Hall
Coton House Farm
Oak Farm Hotel
Each venue has its own personality and flow, and understanding that makes a huge difference on the day.
For example, Sandon Hall offers breathtaking architecture and grounds perfect for golden hour portraits, while Thorpe Garden delivers modern greenhouse energy with incredible natural light.
If you’re planning your wedding in Staffordshire and want both photography and videography, I offer seamless coverage of both.
Having one team means your photos and film feel cohesive not like two separate productions happening at the same time.

I’ve photographed weddings all across the region, from emotional, elegant ceremonies to full-blown party energy receptions.
The thing I love most?
Every single wedding feels different.
Different families.
Different dynamics.
Different energy.
And that’s what makes documentary photography powerful it captures your version of the day, not a copy of someone else’s.
If you’re still choosing your venue, I’ve put together a guide to some of the best wedding venues in the Staffordshire from elegant manor houses to relaxed countryside barns.
