Heartfelt Wedding Photography

My style & Approach on How I photograph your wedding Day:

How I shoot the Day

my perspective

I'm there to document your wedding day, as it naturally unfolds; all the laughs all the tears and everything in-between.

I'm a big people-person, so you'll most likely find me enjoying chatting to your guests and being part of the day to help capture those unseen moments. I love being able to capture you having the best time, interacting with your guests, and of course, with each other! 

I get such a buzz when I'm at weddings! Meeting the people, the moments, the excitement, the emotions; and by the end of it all I want to give all my couples a beautiful visual story of their wedding day.





‘natural, natural, natural!’

From the second I step out of my car, knock on the door and say hello, I want to keep things relaxed, fun and natural. So what you’ll find is that I won’t be snapping away from the moment go, but I’ll most probably be chatting to you, your parents, bridesmaids / groomsmen to get to know names and faces (I’ll try and remember you all, I promise!) and see how everything is coming along.

When I do reach for the cameras I won’t say “Look at me!” “Turn this way!” or “Say cheese!” – it will be something like “You guys crack on as you are, feel free to ignore me and I’m just going to capture some nice moments as they happen. Be yourselves.” Hopefully, this sets the tone early doors and you can relax into your wedding day. 

‘Busy busy busy!’

There will be many fantastic moments happening on your wedding day that you aren't aware of, so my job is to be constantly anticipating and hunting for them. I love to keep busy, stay on my feet, chat to guests, meet your family and be involved in the atmosphere of the day.

Wedding days can be fast-paced and I love it! I don’t want to miss a second and so I give my all in those 10 hours to be present and awake to everything around me. By the end, even though my feet are tired my heart is always full (and so is my memory card!)


'Couple Time'

Probably my favourite part of the day and I'll only need  you for 10-15 mins max! I want your couple time to be authentic to who you are, so no posing or manoeuvring body parts so you look ridiculously uncomfortable – your couple time is your time.

I want you to be yourselves, whether that be holding hands and going for a little walk, piggy backs or practising that upcoming first dance; you guys do you, that’s what matters. Nipping off for 10 mins on two occasions for some couple time is a great way for you both to breathe, take a few mins out together and reflect on your day as well as having some nice portraits in and around your venue. I keep an eye out for good light, scout out some nice spots and that’s it. Easy!

What if you could have a photographer who...

Weddings are wild, wonderful, and full of life – and I am HERE FOR IT!

I’m Ollie, and I photograph weddings because I genuinely love people. The way your mates throw their heads back in laughter during the speeches. That tearful hug. The wild dance moves that come out after dark. These are the moments that matter – and I’m there to catch them all.

My style is natural, vibrant, and full of energy. I’m not about stiff poses or endless direction. I’m about connection. I blend in like a guest with a camera, letting things unfold while I capture the fun, the joy, and all the chaos that makes your day uniquely yours.

"We are so happy that we chose you and you've done our special day justice in a way that we believe, only you could. You're a master at what you do! Thank you ollie!"



You’ll find me in the middle of the action –  laughing alongside your family, chatting to guests and always ready for the big moments and the quiet ones too.

I love to capture images that allow you to step back and feel the moment again.

If you're looking for someone who will match your energy, love your people, and tell your story in a way that’s real and joyful – I’m your guy.

My Photography style

I’M THE RIGHT PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOU IF….

My photography is very much under the 'documentary' umbrella and is really summed up by this - capturing moments of: love, joy & intimacy. 

On the day itself, I like to be close to the action to get those photos with feeling, but without getting in your way; blending in with your guests to capture those candid moments of real emotion for you to enjoy forever.

You want Someone who loves to capture the natural and candid moments

You'd like someone who is friendly and will chat with your guests

You want someone who is confident SPEAKing WITH YOUR FAMILY AND MEETING NEW PEOPLE

You want someone who is super laid back but will help give direction where needed


You love to have fun! And are up for a good time (documented by me!)
