I document weddings as they actually feel
the nerves, the joy, the chaos and the quiet in between

A litte about me

Quite simply, I love photography. I’ve had a “proper” camera since I was 16 mostly using it to document my friends launching themselves into rivers with questionable judgement.

I took on five A-levels and failed every single one… except photography. Which, in hindsight, feels like the universe gently steering me in the right direction. I stuck with it, followed the obsession all the way through, and graduated in 2015 with a degree in Documentary Photography.

Since then, I’ve had the absolute privilege of photographing over 400 weddings across the UK and abroad.

I currently live in Wiltshire with my son who has completely reshaped my perspective on life, love, and what actually matters. Becoming a dad has deepened the way I see moments. The quiet ones. The loud ones. The blink-and-you’ll-miss-them ones.

What I genuinely love most about weddings is the connection. Getting to know a couple and their people. Slipping into the day as a calm presence. Capturing things as they unfold not staging them, not interrupting them just preserving them honestly.

My approach

I photograph weddings in a way that feels natural, honest, and completely unobtrusive. I’m not there to take over or turn the day into a photoshoot. I’m there to quietly observe, to blend in, and to notice the moments that are happening without anyone realising they’re important yet. The real connections, the little glances, the nervous hands, the bursts of laughter, and all the in-between stuff you won’t see while you’re living it.

My approach is rooted in documentary storytelling, but with a strong awareness of light, composition, and emotion. I’m constantly watching how people interact and how the atmosphere shifts through the day, so I can capture it in a way that feels true to what it was like to be there. I don’t want your photos to just show you how everything looked. I want them to bring you straight back to how it all felt.

A lot of my couples mention in their reviews that I’m calm and discreet, and that’s something I really value in the way I work. Weddings can be busy, emotional, and sometimes overwhelming, and the last thing you need is someone adding to that. My job is to be a steady, reassuring presence in the background, letting you relax into your day while I quietly document it as it unfolds.

I believe the best photos happen when you’re fully present with the people you love, not thinking about the camera. By giving you space and working in a relaxed, low-key way, I’m able to capture moments that feel genuine, personal, and timeless. The end result is a set of photographs that don’t feel staged or forced, but instead feel like a true reflection of your day and the story that naturally unfolded.

  • Clearly one of the best wedding photographers for candid shots in all environments and we couldn't be happier with our photos. Discrete, calm and focused on the day

    Mel

  • Not only are his photos amazing but his relaxed approach made us feel really comfortable and removed all of the awkwardness of having the photos taken..

    Leanne

  • We wanted a candid, modern, and documentary-style to our wedding photos, and Matt captured the joy and fun of the day so perfectly

    Adrianna

  • A great person to have around on the day - very calm and friendly - exactly the kind of person you would want as your photographer.

    Cat

  • Matt was a great person to have around on the day - very calm and friendly - exactly the kind of person you would want as your photographer.

    Charlotte

  • Matt was a dream to work with from start to finish. We went with him due to his candid style and as soon as we met we knew his laid back personality would put us at ease

    Sophie

  • He was really calm and helpful in the lead up and we're absolutely thrilled with the photos. He captured some incredible candid moments.

    Natasha

  • He really captures the mood of the day. Often won’t notice he is there, but from all the candid moments caught he is obviously paying close attention.

    Grace

  • He was professional, friendly and really put us at ease in front of the camera. We have so many photos of our day that really capture the mood

    Ellie

  • He wasn't intrusive in any way - Matt was like a little invisible ninja! So many photos that we didn't even know were taken, or photos where we didn't even know Matt had moved places!
