Your trust and satisfaction mean the world to me, and I’m grateful for the kind words shared by those I’ve had the pleasure of working with.

“John was incredible, we honestly couldn’t be happier with our photos and experience on the day. He worked so hard to get the best shots, he made us feel really comfortable the whole time (nothing awkward and really posed which I was dreading!). The photos speak for themselves”

“Lee and I got married just the two of us in Scotland, and John was wonderful. He was extremely easy to communicate with even though we live in the states. We did a zoom meet and greet with him and several email communications”

“John is fantastic at what he does! From the moment of arriving at our wedding venue he was totally chilled out and relaxed which is exactly what I needed during the morning of my wedding”

“John was a dream to work with to photograph our wedding. From the start he was quick to reply which put us at ease. On the day he was full of ideas for our venue and the photographs came out even more beautiful that we could have hoped for”

What to expect

My Wedding Style

Capture Your Perfect Day with Confidence

With hundreds of weddings under my belt, I bring a wealth of experience and a keen eye for detail to ensure your day is beautifully documented. I understand the intricate timings of weddings, can handle the unexpected with ease, and provide a calming presence that lets you enjoy your day.

Why Choose Me?

  • Experience: Having shot hundreds of weddings, I know exactly how the day flows and how to capture every important moment.
  • Reliability: I bring calm and assurance, ensuring that your wedding day runs smoothly.
  • Adaptability: I’m prepared for the unexpected, handling any surprises with professionalism.

My approach to weddings focuses on allowing the day to flow as naturally as possible. I document the events as they happen, capturing all the joy, laughter, and everything in between. This method of shooting ensures that the images reflect the genuine moments of your day.

I’ve always preferred this natural style throughout the day, and you can see this in all the images on my website. By letting your day unfold organically, I capture moments as they occur, resulting in a more authentic and comprehensive selection of photos.

To document a wedding day

I capture your wedding day as it unfolds, allowing it to flow as naturally as possible. From the tears to the laughter, the joy, and every emotion in between, I’m there to document it all. Most of the day is unposed and completely undirected, ensuring that the moments I capture are genuine and true to your unique celebration.

Group shots are of course an important part of any wedding day and these are of course included. I promise that these won’t take long at all and you’ll have plenty of time to get back to your guests and enjoy the rest of your day.

All about the details

The time and effort that each couple invests in organizing and creating a unique wedding day can sometimes go unnoticed amid the excitement of the celebration. That’s why it’s so important to capture and document all these carefully planned details. I always make sure to dedicate time throughout the day to photograph these special touches, ensuring that every aspect of your wedding is remembered and cherished.

The couple shoot.

My couples often tell me, “We’re not the posey type,” and that’s completely fine—I said the same thing to my own wedding photographer! I like to take you both away for about 20 minutes to capture some photos of just the two of you, alone, away from the guests. I promise to get you back as quickly as possible, but I do love going on little mini adventures to find that perfect spot with perfect light. I can’t emphasise enough how painless, relaxed, and even fun this experience is.

Full day wedding coverage
from morning prep to after first dance


I truly believe that full-day coverage is the best way to document a wedding day. From the morning prep, where I capture those special moments as your loved ones see you all ready for your big day, to the first dance and all the fancy moves from your guests—I’m there to capture everything in between. Typically, this takes me through to about 5-6 songs after the first dance, but I never set a strict time limit. I’ll always let you know when I’m finishing up and ask if you’d like any last-minute photos of anything or anyone.

That said, every wedding is unique, and full-day coverage might not be necessary for everyone. That’s why I also offer alternative options tailored to your needs.
