Natural, Relaxed, Nature Infused
Wedding Photography & Videography in Cornwall
For relaxed couples 🌿 I’m friendly, creative and so passionate about my work.
Cornwall Wedding Photographer & Videographer covering Cornwall, Devon and beyond. Hello, I'm Cat - wedding photographer, sunset chaser, coffee fanatic. I’m a Cornwall wedding photographer & videographer offering bright, bold photography; capturing you both genuinely enjoying the best day of your lives. To me, wedding photography is so much more than just being there to ‘snap away’. I put my heart
and soul into making sure you’re over the moon with your final photos & films. Overall, I’d love you to feel like you’ve invited an extra friend to your wedding. My approach is relaxed, unobtrusive and natural, capturing moments as they unfold. My style is nature inspired, relaxed and authentic, capturing genuine chemistry and real emotion throughout your whole day from morning preparations through until your evening celebrations. Your wedding photos and films are an investment; memories to revisit for years to come and even share with your kids, grandkids and great-grandkids. So its very important that you love the style and approach of your wedding photographer. If I sound like a good fit for you, I'd absolutely love to tell your story.

✨ How to Choose Your Perfect Wedding Photographer ✨
📷 Editing Style
One of the first things to consider is their editing style. Photographers each have their own unique way of capturing a wedding day – whether it’s light & airy, dark & moody, fine art, or bright & colourful. It’s all about finding a style that resonates with you and captures the vibe you want for your wedding photos.
📷 Recommendations
A great way to find a photographer is through recommendations. Word of mouth from friends, family, or even online reviews can give you a solid idea of who’s right for you. But don’t stop at reviews – always check out full galleries of their past weddings, not just the highlight reel. This will give you a better sense of their consistency and how they capture the entire day, not just the best moments.
📷 Your Photographer's Approach
Think about what matters most to you in your photos. Do you love intimate couple photos, or are you more into candid snaps of your guests? Maybe you’re after those little personal details, like the flowers, cake, or décor you spent so much time picking out. Most photographers will capture all of this, but some may have a stronger focus on one or the other. It’s worth thinking about what matters most to you when choosing.
📷 The Vibe of Your Day
Consider the vibe you want for your day. Do you want a photographer who brings energy and fun to the event, or are you after someone who takes a more unobtrusive, documentary approach? Maybe you want a mix of both! How your photographer interacts with you and your guests can impact the overall feel of your wedding gallery.
📷 Budget
And of course, budget is important. What’s included in their packages? Some photographers offer extras like pre-wedding shoots or albums, which can be a wonderful bonus. Be sure you know what’s included so you can decide what suits your needs – both for the photos and any extras you might want.
Happy photographer hunting! 💕

✨Did you know I include a COMPLIMENTARY ENGAGEMENT SESSION with my Full Day Wedding Photography and Wedding Photo & Film packages?! ✨
This is the PERFECT opportunity to have some fun and grab some wall-worthy photos of you both, while also getting to know me as your photographer before your wedding day so you feel as comfortable as possible having your photo taken. We can chat through your plans and it also allows me to get to know you both too!
A lot of my couples incorporate their engagement photos into their wedding day, such as guest books and table decor.
All my sessions are held outdoors, making the most of our stunning Cornish surroundings, usually as close to golden hour as possible to get that gorgeous dreamy light ✨🌿
I also offer engagement and couples photography packages separately if you fancy booking a session just because.
Let’s go on an adventure and create some magic 🌿✨

Thank you to all my lovely clients and friends for another wonderful year of weddings and family sessions.
Wishing you all a joyful, peaceful Christmas 🎄.

✨ MATT & ELLIE ✨
There's only one word to encapsulate Matt & Ellie's October wedding - actually two - UTTERLY EPIC!!
Ellie & Matt had the most beautiful ceremony at St Eval Church surrounded by a sea of 180 guests, which is one of the largest weddings I've had the honour of capturing. They then walked through a tunnel of ski's while being showered in confetti.
A clifftop marquee reception overlooking Boobys Bay awaited us all. It was filled with beautifully laid out tables and colourful florals. Scrumptious food was cooked up by friends, served by guests adorned in chef hats and aprons. Even Ellie herself got involved!
After speeches, Ellie & Matt had scheduled in a sea swim for which they were joined by a good portion of their brave guests! Everybody (except us photographers!) changed into their swimwear. We headed down to the beach after dark in the pouring Cornish rain and wind. Thankfully I bought my waterproof camera covers, video light and flash, which were our best friends while stumbling down to the beach from the marquee, as well as on the beach as we couldn't see a thing 😂
Everybody then warmed up with the most epic Ceilidh I have ever witnessed! The dancefloor was full up til the moment we left. And yes, we definitely found it hard to tear away!
Ellie & Matt were the most kind, fun and lovely couple. Thank you for choosing me to capture your unforgettable day!
There were just too many unforgettable moments to squeeze into one post, so you'll just have to enjoy these super cute beach portraits for now 🐚 🌊
I can't even remember the last time I took my cameras on an outing with my beautiful bunch! The last time was possibly when my youngest was a newborn and he's now 21 months! 🤯
So, let me introduce you to Olivia, Seth and Elias - the absolute apples of my eye! I love how these photos capture their individual personalities.
Olivia - my kind, brave, dragon obsessed warrior princess 👑
Seth - my funny cheeky chappy, the wild one 😝
Elias - my sweet, cuddly puddle jumper 🍂
I actually didn't set my hopes too high on our trip to Tehidy Woods. As most parents have probably discovered, getting 'nice' photos of your own kids is mission impossible! It took a bit of chocolate bribery but I let them run wild, followed their lead and captured them doing what they love: exploring, climbing trees and rocks and splashing in muddy puddles! Plus I managed, with the bribery, to capture some more 'posey' ones of the three of them. These are some of my favourite photos of them all and I'm so glad I could capture our adventure, even with a little grump at times (can you spot him?! 😂)
I take bookings all year round for family sessions.
Sessions are £150 and include:
- up to 1 hour shoot
- 3 hi-res digital images of your choice
- option to purchase more
- prints, photo books etc. are available through my online shop

Natural, relaxed, nature-infused Cornwall wedding photography & videography for relaxed couples who are looking for stunning bright, colourful photos.
23/11/2024
Hi! I'm Cat – a Natural, Relaxed, Nature-Infused wedding photographer & videographer located in the heart of Cornwall.
I honestly have the best job in the world! And I've had the honour of capturing many wonderful weddings over the last 9 years.
Here's a little bit about my style and what I do.
🌻 My approach is natural and relaxed, capturing moments that tell your unique love story as your wedding day unfolds.
🌿 My style is bright and colourful. I love to capture the authentic connection between you both.
🌻 I adore shooting outdoors, infusing nature into my photos & films and making the most of natural light.
🌿 Golden Hour is my absolute favourite time of day to capture your beautiful couple’s portraits. The light is gorgeously golden and soft, you’re more relaxed as the more time-pressured parts of your day are out of the way, and it’s a calm, serene, less busy time. It’s a chance to steal away just the two of you (plus me!) for 20 mins or so for some quality time to just ‘be’. Golden Hour just makes for the most incredible photos! Trust me!
🌻 I love to get to know my couples before their special day. That’s why I offer a complimentary pre-wedding shoot with my full day packages, which is a great get-to-know-each-other opportunity where we can chat about your wedding plans, for you to get used to being photographed and my working style, as well as you having some gorgeous keepsake photos to take away.
🌿 I adore capturing anything from large weddings to intimate elopements.
I'd be over the moon to be YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER 💛
Vast sandy beaches, rugged coastlines, rustic barns, wild woodlands, luscious countryside - let’s go on an adventure!
Sunflowers, tractors, delicious locally sourced food (it was my first time trying venison - YUM!) and an epic party complete with smoke filled bubbles! Frances & Jacob pulled out all the stops for their beautiful wedding day on their family farm!

✨Review time!✨
When considering your wedding photographer, be sure to look at what their past clients have to say about their experience. Word of mouth is one of the best ways to figure out whether a photographer is right for you.
All the hours and love I pour into capturing your day and editing your beautiful photos and videos is definitely worth it when I know my clients are over the moon with their forever memories. And, as cheesy as it sounds, I'm usually shedding a tear or smiling along as I go through your photos as I'm reminded of all the special moments - I truly do feel invested in my couple's wedding days 🥰
On that note, Lianne & Cillian kindly left me a glowing review from their sunny spring wedding at Tredudwell Manor!
⬇⬇⬇
"We just wanted to say how over the moon we are with our photos. We knew we were in safe hands with you as soon as we met you. Your professionalism and knowledge shone at all times. We couldn't be happier with the final outcome. You listened to what we wanted whilst giving your professional input.
You're a star. Thank you so much for giving us memories to treasure from our perfect day."
I had the honour of photographing this little family back in June. This was a very special shoot. Not only was it to celebrate the newest member of their gorgeous family, 2 week old little Colby, but it involved a surprise proposal! Such a happy day 🥰
🌿 SAMMIE & JIM 🌿 Mount Pleasant Eco Park - Festival Vibes.
Oh how I struggled to narrow down the selection of photos to share of Sammie & Jim’s AMAZING June wedding day! To say that their day was emotional and unique is an understatement! From the cutest first look between Sammie and her gorgeous little boys, to the scrummiest vegan food cooked al fresco in front of all their guests, a beautifully rustic and incredibly romantic outdoor ceremony, bouquet toss, bride and groom toss, heartfelt speeches, outdoor games, softplay tipi, glitter tattoos, giant glow sticks, the best family atmosphere, not mention the glorious weather! And right on the doorstep of Porthtowan beach 🌊

✨2024✨What a year! Here's just a small handful of my wonderful wedding couples I've photographed this year 🤍
It’s been an incredible year and my first full time year back since having my two littlest boys. I’ve been so privileged to have worked alongside some amazing suppliers and captured so many beautiful weddings at some gorgeous Cornish venues, which are now on my top 5 list! Not to mention the incredible couples and families I’ve had the honour of photographing. I’ve experienced so many unforgettable moments with you all, from beautiful outdoor ceremonies, stunning golden hours, heartfelt speeches, champagne towers, the most epic dancefloors and capturing an after dark sea swim with half the weddings guests in the wild Cornish weather - my wildest moment yet! Getting to know you has been a highlight and it truly has been an honour to be a part of the best day of your lives!
It’s been a whirlwind and a challenge at times, particularly managing my work/life balance with 3 young children so I just want to thank all my amazing couples for being so supportive, patient and for all the wonderfully kind words/testimonials you’ve given me. I am truly grateful for you all and thank you from the bottom of my heart. I put my heart and soul into every gallery and wedding film to make sure you’ve got the perfect lifetime memories to treasure, and knowing that you’re all over the moon with your photos & films is the best feeling. Here’s to an amazing 2025 🥂 I can’t wait to capture more precious moments for you!

Tom & Candice | Wedding Highlights | Padstow, Cornwall
Tom & Candice's wedding was just gorgeous and was such a fun family affair! Their ceremony was at Padstow church where they were married by Tom's sister and their kids did some beautiful readings! Followed by their wonderful reception at The Pickwick Inn. The venue was dressed so beautifully and I witnessed some of the best dance moves I have ever seen in the evening so of course I stayed a little bit longer to make sure it was captured!

Jenny & Kelvin's Winter Wonderland Wedding
What an adventure! The ‘Beast from the East’ transformed Jenny & Kelvin’s spring wedding into a white winter wonderland at The Green Cornwall. There was so much snow! I did pack an overnight bag ‘just in case’ but didn’t really expect to be stranded overnight along with the guests and wedding party. Although this way we were able to capture even more of the wonderful celebrations. I am so excited to show you a short preview of their beautiful white wedding.
Congratulations Jenny & Kelvin!

Hello & Welcome
At Take One Photos & Film we are passionate about creating stunning photos and beautiful films that not only capture moments but also tell your incredible, unique love story.
Every wedding is different and completely unique to each couple and that is why we aim to provide a personal service that captures YOUR day in a way that fulfils YOUR photography and film desires.
Our main approach is relaxed and unobtrusive, blending in with your guests, which allows us to capture your wedding in a more informal and reportage style.
Our style is natural, creative and fun, capturing moments as they unfold.
We are friendly, reliable and dedicated to capturing your day.
Natural light and being outdoors is at the heart of our photography & film making. We adore the bold colours of nature be it beaches, coastlines, woodland, stunning gardens or luscious countryside.
We love to capture the tiny details as well as the significant events throughout your day.
Every couple deserves some beautiful personal portraits (both photos and film according your chosen package). We like to achieve this by taking some time out with you both at some point during your day for a quiet 20 minutes or so. While some couples are completely confident in front of the camera, we realise that most couples are not and require a bit of guidance on how to ‘pose’ together. However, you will never know – our style means that even with a guided pose your natural reactions and chemistry will be captured and will certainly not be forced!
We capture a mix of informal and formal portraits (if you would like them) but mostly natural photos of you and your guests enjoying the celebrations.
Ultimately, YOUR wedding day should be captured the way YOU want it and that is what we are here to do.
