What to expect when you book me as your wedding photographer...

It’s hard to put into words what a wedding photographer really does, because on a wedding day we end up being so many things all at once. We’re there to capture the big milestones, the quiet in-between moments, the little details you’ve poured your heart into, and the joy, laughter, and chaos that make the day uniquely yours.


I recently made a TikTok about this and thought it would be perfect to turn into a blog post too. So here it is: a little look into the kind of photographs you can expect when you book me as your wedding photographer.


Every single photo in this post was captured at one real wedding, at the beautiful Thorpe Garden. From the morning calm to the wild dancefloor moves, this is what a full wedding gallery really looks like - a complete story, not just a few “Pinterest-worthy” shots.



So here is a list of what you can expect to be captured if you book me as your wedding photographer..

In the meantime, if you’re planning your wedding and looking for natural, storytelling photography, my diary is now open for 2026 and 2027 weddings. I’d love to hear about your plans and chat about how I can capture your day.
