All in, from day one

Modern documentary wedding photography, from someone fully invested in your people and your story.

I’m Lewis. I read the room, notice the details, and let your day unfold the way it’s meant to. No performative posing. No theatrics. Just honest, considered images of the moments that matter most.

Feel it all over again.

Why couples choose me

Present. Professional. Emotionally attuned.

Emotion-led

The truth, in a single frame.

I tune in to what’s happening and photograph it as it unfolds. Your dad’s face during the speech. Your gran’s hand on your arm.

A calm presence

Where I need to be, when I need to be.

I arrive early, watch the light and the timings, and handle the logistics quietly in the background.

Straightforward support

Quick replies. Clear answers.

No chasing, no guessing, no waffle. You’ll know what’s happening at every step.

The experience

How it works.

One person looking after you, start to finish.

First

Tell me about your day

Send your date and venue. I’ll reply quickly with availability, pricing, and a link to a relaxed video call.

Then

Calm planning

A £300 booking fee secures your date. Your online portal keeps everything in one place, and I’ll help shape a timeline that works with the light.

The day

Fully yourselves

From morning preparations until late, I document it all quietly. Expect a few previews before you’ve left the dance floor.

After

Your gallery, within four weeks

500+ individually edited, full-resolution images, with an easy print store. Films follow within eight weeks.

Photo + film, one person

Hear the speeches again. See the dance floor move.

Honest, handheld film alongside your photographs. No extra crew, no lighting rigs. The same calm presence, with sound and movement too.

Your coverage

Everything you need. Nothing to decode.

One full day, one calm person, and a gallery you’ll return to for years. Clear from the very first message, with no hidden extras.

Behind the camera

Calm, curious, and completely invested.

With over a decade of weddings behind me, I treat your day with care, your family with kindness, and your friends like they’re mine too. I’m not for everyone, and that’s a good thing.

Good to know

Your questions, answered.

Where are you based, and do you travel?

I work across the Cotswolds, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, South Wales, and London, and travel is included for most of the UK. For Scotland or weddings abroad, I’ll outline any accommodation or flights up front.

How many photos will we receive?

You’ll receive at least 500 individually edited images, though most galleries land between 600 and 800.

How soon will we see our photos?

You’ll get a few previews on the day itself. Your full gallery arrives within four weeks, and hybrid films follow within eight.

Will you direct us all day?

No. I’ll guide you briefly for couple portraits and family groups, then step back and document the rest of the day as it happens.

How do we book?

Check your date, then we’ll have a relaxed video call. A £300 booking fee and a simple online contract secure your date.
