Top Wedding Tips

When choosing you venue check if there are enough rooms and space if it rains. You will want the space for mingling with the guests and room for group photos.

Go through the timings of the day with your photographer to make sure you are all on the same page. It's best to have more time than less time to enjoy the day to its fullest.

Brides - Be ready at least 30 minutes before the ceremony. This gives you time to compose yourself and allows your photographer to capture the dress reveal to your dad and bridemaids.

Cornwall Wedding
Steve is an incredibly talented, passionate photographer which can be seen in all of his photos. He has a way of capturing those raw emotions and moments that are truly breath taking. He seems to be able to take photos of everything and everyone without ever being rushed or in the way. When it came to our couple photos, he made us feel calm and relaxed and made it a time where we could run away and just be ourselves. No staged photos! We could just be with each other, laughing and smiling on the happiest day of our lives. We have received so many glowing compliments about the photos, he’s made it so difficult to choose which ones to put on the wall!

He is really professional, on time and ready to go. We couldn’t recommend him highly enough!! Thank you so much, Lauren and Ali

I can’t find enough good things to say about Steven. Our wedding photos were everything we wanted and more. Not only did Steven take amazing photos, he was such a delight to have throughout our big day.

We had a very low key and laid back wedding and it was so helpful to have Steven there to help organize and navigate the day and keep us on schedule! From the beginning, he was easily able to understand the type of vibe we were going for, and he helped make that happen. He did such an amazing job at capturing such nice candid shots of the entire day, and also putting our family groups together for some more formal shots. Seriously such a great photographer!

Fairyhill Wedding
Thank you for being our wedding photographer! We are overwhelmed by the quality of the photos you’ve taken and the speed with which you got them finalised. You managed to capture so many wonderful moments throughout the day.

The couple portraits came out beautifully composed with you really bringing out the autumnal colours all around us and our love for each other. Beyond those shots, the photos of our guests really stand out and highlight the beautiful people who shared our day with us with some of their serious and silly moments. You certainly earned your title as a ninja since we (and our guests) often had no idea you were there freezing moments in time forever.

We must say that having the pre-wedding photo shoot was invaluable to us. It got us used to being in front of the camera and gave us a chance to get to know you – which was a delight in itself. This meant that, on the day, we felt like we were welcoming another friend to our wedding.

We wish you all the best in the future and hope that many other couples make the great decision of having you as their wedding photographer in years to come.
