Jasmine & Nilesh ~ I’ve known Jaz since she was wee. To see her grow into the woman she is has been a joy and that was capped off by witnessing her marriage to Nilesh as the rain fell (well, poured) at their gorgeous coastal wedding. Durlston is a magical place to marry 👌🏻
I wish them happiness and love in abundance and I’d like to thank them for choosing me to capture BOTH of their weddings (Hindu & British) 🙌🏻☺️4.0

I’m playing with fire here, but someone needs to say something 😉😘🔥
I can’t claim to be speaking on behalf of every photographer, but certainly a dozen or so that I’ve spoken to.
Photographers love to share their work, it gets it out there and it can sometimes be seen as a compliment. Photos are meant to be seen, right?
However, the industry has started to treat our work with an entitled expectation - that everything we produce is free for everyone.
It isn’t. 🤷🏻‍♂️
If your work or your face is in a photo, it doesn’t make it yours. That isn’t how it works.
ALL YOU NEED TO DO to make it a fair trade between photographers and other suppliers is to engage. That’s it. It’s free!! LIKE, SHARE, COMMENT AND COLLABORATE on posts you’ve been tagged in.
We aren’t obliged to deliver free images to everyone, so please consider how you view our work. We make every effort to tag everyone in our posts, so please do the same. 🙏
I admit that by posting this it will rustle some feathers, but it can’t go on indefinitely.
If you persist in posting our work without credit / tagging us, then you might be on the end of a message telling you to take it down. 😬
We all want to get along and value each other, so let’s actually do it.
Plus, our clients (the bride(s) & groom(s)) have already paid you for the job - it doesn’t come with a free batch of professional images… that they’ve also paid for. 😉
Love you! Have a good weekend! 💃

Anna & Jamie married at in September and it was just a phenomenal wedding to capture. Every type of weather, every emotion and a couple who are madly in love with one another. The venue is a beauty too, with staff who really care and who make every effort to maintain the highest standards - I hope to return soon! 👏🏻👏🏻
So pleased with this - watch til the end. ☺️👌🏻

It never fails to amaze me how quick husbands are to help retrieve the confetti from a dress 😂 (We’re that transparent, boys!!)
Abby & Matt have been a bloody good laugh alllll the way along the journey. I’m so thankful they chose me to capture their wedding day at a fantastic little venue . The prep was in the most awesome house down the road (Hygge House) in the most idyllic setting I’ve seen for a long time. I’d highly recommend checking out this place if you’re looking for a country backdrop to your day.
It’s been an ideal end to my wedding season - which this year has been full on. 90% of my years work fell within 3 months, which was tiring but hugely rewarding. It’s not time to recharge, reset but to hopefully, move into my new home. 🙌🏻🏡
Next year is booking up well and offering up some intense periods and some quieter gaps to enable me to travel. I limit how may weddings I do as most people add the film and I need space and time to write & record the music, plus any voice overs. I appreciate everyone who has chosen me to capture their day!

Tanya & Kayleigh ~ Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Your wedding today (which is always a great venue to work at) was not only a brilliant day to capture but it’s been a joyous way to end my 2025 wedding season.
To see two such incredible women tie the knot was a joy to behold and to spend the day with their welcoming family & friends, a blessing.
My love and best wishes to them both for their married life.
Xx
So good to see & again - always a pleasure! And to work with - such a lovely, talented chap!

Very often I first ‘meet’ people via a video call. So it’s always nice to meet them in person, when everything just clicks. It isn’t work, it’s a pleasure. 👌🏻 Finally meeting Georgia & Edd (& Dougal! 🥹) this morning, ahead of their wedding next year, was the best start to the day. I can’t wait to capture their day in photos and film 📷📹💃

Charlotte & Jack ~ you are 👌🏻 together. It just works, it’s effortless and it’s adorable to behold. You are so fortunate to have found each other in this crazy world. Enjoy the ride! Xx

Lovely to be back at 🙌🏻
Fantastic to work with these beauties too -

Pre wedding visits are so helpful for me to learn about you. For you to establish trust in what I’m doing and, ultimately, maximise the quality of your wedding photos. If we can’t get to the venue for whatever reason, I’ll always try to arrange something, so that we have that important time together prior to your wedding.
Clare & Wayne were / are a total joy to be around. Their tactile affection is ideal for photos and film and their wedding next year promises to be a real highlight - being held on the land they call home. Big love to these beauties!

Sam & Liam ~ with the little sleep you got, I’m amazed you were able to get through such a day!! It was wonderful and it’s been wonderful to work with you both. Your calm kindness is very welcoming and your enthusiasm is fantastic. Thankyou so much for having me capture your wedding in photos and film! 🥹🙌🏻
I hope you look back on everything and it brings a smile to your face. ☺️
😘
Lovely to see the ever brilliant
and work at one of my favourites too! 🙌🏻

Lauren & Matt ~ It’s been a dream working with you both. You’ve embraced the whole process and revelled in the moments as they’ve passed and now it’s time to look back, already. Because fairytales are meant to be retold, right?
Wishing you both every happiness in your lives together, every step of the way. You deserve it.

This is why I love my job. The people.
It’s been my saviour this year.
Faces and moments that will stay with me.
From other suppliers on their own journey, to the people who employ me (and everyone inbetween) plus little keepsakes I acquire along the way. I’m so grateful to do what I do.
The first shot is my personal favourite image of the year. I was fortunate enough to capture all their wonderful weddings! X
I’ve been a wedding photographer in Dorset and beyond for 14 years. By far, it’s been the best job I’ve ever had… and I’ve had some jobs! From selling houses & musical instruments, to Banking, Green Grocer and Pot washer (first ever job, at Kingston Lacy) - this brings me the most joy, the most peace.
Thankyou to everyone who employs me. It means more than you know. 🙌🏻
I appreciate it’s a bit weird to post a loads of photos of my own face, but they’re the reminders I’ll have in years to come. 🥹

Abi & Matt ~ You guys are a blast! From first meeting to today, you’ve been so down to earth, so real. And I love that. It will stand you in good stead for your married life together. Keep the humour, keep the vibrant personalities and enjoy!! Huuuuge love from me to you xx

A lovely first visit to another great wedding venue -
And awesome to work alongside the very talented wedding suppliers -

Great work everyone!!
