Wow, what an amazing year of weddings! At the start of this year, I made the big decision to go full-time into wedding photography and it’s been without doubt, the best decision!
I’ve had 31 incredible weddings to photograph and each wedding presented something new and exciting. I met incredible people and this year made me realise how privileged I am to call this my job. I also want to shout out my couples – all of whom have been so wonderful, it’s been a joy to get to know each of you and document your weddings; thank you for choosing me!
I’m also really proud with some of my achievements in the wedding photography industry this campaign. I was featured in Rangefinder Magazine, named as a TWIA regional finalist, picked up 2 This is Reportage Awards and was named in This is Reportage’s Top 100 Photographers in the World for 2023.
So there you have it. This is my 2023. Thank you for being a flipping brilliant year!
Time for the photos.
Enjoy,
Ollie x
p.s. it’s always fun to look through pictures with a bit of music, so why not enjoy a bit of Sam Ryder singing in the background whilst checking out my best of 2023!
