Our Photography & Video Approach:

"Our photography approach aims to capture the genuine emotions and candid moments of your wedding day unobtrusively. We steer clear of overly posed or staged photos, instead documenting the natural flow of events with a photojournalistic style. Our goal is to artfully tell the story of your celebration through a collection of beautiful, authentic images.If you wish, we can briefly step away from the hustle and bustle for 10-15 minutes to provide you with either candid couple portraits or some gently guided romantic photos. However, we ensure you are not kept away from the excitement and fun for too long. Our priority is for you to immerse yourselves in your wedding day, spending quality time with loved ones rather than extended periods with your photographers.We aim to blend into the background, capturing all the laughter, tears of joy, tender glances, and animated celebrations organically as they unfold. Our unobtrusive approach allows you to be fully present and lets genuine interactions and emotions shine through your wedding gallery".Three girls in wedding dresses standing in front of Orchardleigh House
