Lancashire wedding photographer
Your day,
as it really felt.
I’d rather blend in with your guests than line them up.
I’m a Lancashire-based photographer who has called the North West home since 1987. My approach is simple: keep things relaxed, get to know your family and friends, and capture your day as it actually happens. The nerves, the belly laughs, the happy tears and the moment the dance floor fills up.
Couples tell me I’m a calming presence on the day. I keep group shots quick and painless, so you can get back to your guests (and the prosecco).
Real days, real people.
Every wedding has its own story. Here are a few of my favourites, told from start to finish.
Mr & Mrs Moreman
Rollers and prosecco, a garden gazebo, and a rainbow that turned up right on cue.

Mr & Mrs Lorton
A barn full of fairy lights, a veil that wouldn’t behave and a dance floor cartwheel.

Mr & Mrs Collins
Burnt-orange flowers, a veil in the wind and a little girl who stole the show.

Alice & Dawn
A joyful same-sex wedding among the trees: fairy lights, bunting and a brief of “nothing too traditional”.

Easy-going, from hello to gallery.
Let’s have a chat
A relaxed conversation, over a brew or a video call, about your plans, your people and the moments that matter most to you.
On the day
I blend in, keep the group shots quick and painless, and let the day unfold naturally. Kids, grandparents and nervous best men are all welcome to be themselves.
Your gallery
Within four to six weeks your images arrive in a private, password-protected online gallery, ready to download, share and relive again and again.
The bits you’ll treasure.
The glances, giggles and in-between moments that make a wedding yours.
