The Deep Dive...


Wedding photography for couples who want to feel relaxed...and remember everything

You’re planning a wedding that feels like you: a bit traditional, a lot of fun, and full of people you love.

You’d like the nerves and excitement of getting ready.

The look at the top of the aisle.

The hugs, the quiet moments, the wild speeches, the dance floor madness.

Not just a few posed photos – the whole story.


At the same time, neither of you is exactly thrilled about being in front of a camera all day. You want someone calm, professional and kind who will:

  • Gently guide you through the photos
  • Capture everything that matters
  • Let you actually enjoy your day

That’s where I come in.


My job is to look after you and your memories

Most of my couples tell me some version of:

  • “We’re a bit awkward in photos.”
  • “We just want it to feel natural.”
  • “We want all the moments covered without it turning into a photoshoot.”

You don’t need to know how to pose or what to do with your hands. You don’t need to perform.

My approach is simple:

  • I guide you gently whenever you need it (portraits, group photos, those “where do we put our arms?” moments).
  • I blend in and document the rest of the day as it unfolds, from the quiet build-up to the late-night chaos.

You get images that feel like your wedding – real, joyful, a little bit imperfect in the best way – with none of the stiff, forced posing you’re worried about.

Every part of your day, covered

You’re not hiring me for a handful of portraits. You’re trusting me to tell the story of one of the biggest days of your life.

Here’s what that looks like in real terms:

Getting ready

Nerves, excitement, makeup chaos, suits going on slightly wrong, the moment it suddenly feels real. Those last quiet minutes before everything begins.

Ceremony

The walk down the aisle, the reactions, the readings, the tears, the “we’re actually doing this” looks, and the walk back together as newlyweds.

Details & atmosphere

Flowers, rings, outfits, table decor, signage, little in-jokes you’ve worked into the day. All the touches that will fade in memory if they’re not photographed.

Guests just being themselves

The hugs, the big laughs, kids under tables, aunties on the dance floor, old friends catching up. The people you love, exactly as they are.

Your couple portraits

Around 15–20 minutes at some point in the day where I guide you through relaxed, flattering photos that feel like the two of you, not like a photo shoot you have to survive. If the light is incredible later on, I might borrow you for a quick 5–10 minutes to create something extra special.

Speeches & evening

Stories, reactions, happy tears, roars of laughter, quiet hand squeezes under the table.

Dance floor madness

The first dance, the second dance, the “they’ve really committed to this song”, and all the wonderfully messy, unforgettable bits that happen once nobody’s paying too much attention to the cameras.

From morning to dance floor, my aim is simple: when you look back, you feel like you’re there again.


My promise to camera-shy couples

You want beautiful photos and full coverage – without feeling like you’re on stage all day.

So here’s my Camera-Shy Couple Promise:

  • I’ll never ask you to do anything that doesn’t feel like you.
  • I’ll give clear, kind direction so you always know what to do.
  • I’ll keep portraits and group photos efficient, relaxed and (dare I say it) actually enjoyable.
  • I’ll quietly cover everything else – the details, the moments, the dance floor – so nothing important is missed.


You get the best of both worlds - portraits you’re proud to print and a complete, honest story of your day.


What you get when you book me

You’re not just booking someone with a camera. You’re booking a calm, experienced extra pair of hands who’ll support you before, during and after the day.

Here’s what’s included in my full-day coverage:

  • Coverage that fits your day

From morning prep to dance floor energy – we plan around what matters most to you, so the key parts of your day are properly covered.

  • No “watching the clock” feeling

I don’t squeeze you into tight hourly slots. Real weddings rarely run perfectly to schedule, and that’s okay – I’m used to adapting.

  • Unlimited images that tell the full story

If an image helps tell your story, it goes in. No arbitrary caps, no paying extra just to see more of your own wedding.

  • Relaxed, guided group photos

We’ll agree a list in advance so it’s all under control. On the day, I’ll organise everyone with a bit of humour and keep things moving so guests aren’t left hanging around.

  • Optional pre-wedding shoot

Perfect if you’re nervous about being photographed. It’s a chance to meet, take some relaxed photos and see how easy it can feel before the big day.

  • Fast sneak peeks

Within a day or two, you’ll receive a handful of highlight images to share while everyone’s still buzzing.

  • Full gallery in around 1–2 weeks

Carefully selected and edited by hand – no batch filters, no rushed churn. Just honest, flattering images that look like your day.

  • Online gallery & print options

A secure online gallery you can share with friends and family, where you can download your favourites, order prints and create wall art or albums.

  • Help beyond the photos

Need recommendations for suppliers? I’m happy to point you towards brilliant florists, makeup artists, bands and more that I’ve worked with and trust.

Why couples trust me with their wedding

Weddings are emotional, busy and sometimes a little chaotic. Timings shift, weather changes, nerves kick in. My job is to be the calm one who’s seen it all before. Couples tell me they chose – and recommend – me because:

  • I’m relaxed, but professional and organised
  • I blend in and don’t take over the day
  • I help them feel at ease, even if they usually hate photos
  • Their gallery feels like their wedding, not a generic template

You should feel looked after from the moment you enquire, not just when the camera comes out.


How it works

I like to keep things straightforward:

1. Get in touch with your date

Send me a quick message with your date, venue and a rough idea of your plans. I’ll confirm availability and send you the options that best fit what you’re looking for.

2. Have a relaxed chat

We jump on a video call or phone call. You tell me about your day – what you’re excited about, what you’re worried about, and what absolutely must be captured. I’ll talk you through how I work and answer any questions.

3. Secure your date

If it feels right, you reserve the date with a simple online contract and booking fee. From that point, your photographer is sorted.

4. Final planning

Closer to the wedding, we’ll go through your timeline, key people, group photo list and any must-have moments, so we’re on exactly the same page.

Questions you might already be asking

We really don't like being photographed. Is that a problem?

Not at all. Most of my couples feel this way. With gentle direction, a relaxed approach and short, focused portrait sessions, you’ll look natural and comfortable – like yourselves, just on your best day.

Will you still capture everything if you’re mostly in the background?

Yes. While you’re enjoying your day, I’m constantly watching and moving – picking up the details, reactions and little stories happening around you. You focus on the moment; I make sure it’s recorded.

How long will we be away from our guests?

We’ll keep couple portraits to around 15–20 minutes in one go, plus (if you’re up for it) a short 5–10 minute wander later when the light is beautiful. Group photos are planned so they’re efficient and don’t drag on.

What if the weather / timings / plan goes wrong?

They usually do, at least a little. I’m used to working with real-world weddings, not perfect timelines. If something changes, I adapt – finding great light, good locations and making the most of whatever happens.

Ready to feel looked after, not just photographed?

If you’re planning a relaxed, joyful wedding and you’d like a photographer who’ll


  • Calmly guide you through the bits you’re nervous about
  • Quietly capture everything from morning prep to dance floor madness
  • Deliver images that feel like your day


then I'd love to hear about your plans.

Kind words from my wonderful clients

Kind words from my wonderful clients

“Satisfied 100%, our wedding pictures look absolutely amazing! Andy is not only an amazing photographer with an artistic eye but also very professional and a great person. We wanted our wedding day to be light and fun and he contributed to the vibe with his humour and fun attitude. For the group photos he easily coordinated people speaking 3 different languages to stand for him, while the rest of the evening he was so discreet that we haven’t really noticed him taking the pictures.”
