Hi, I'm Em 👋
Friendly Kind
Adventurous
Caring
On the day, Emma was so great to be around, she was professional and calm even when we were short on time. She took control and ensured we got all the photos we wanted and made us laugh all day long.
I’m a mum, stepmum, sister & an auntie too. I was a 1980’s teenager I had a perm, wore batwing jumpers and Neon. Lots of Neon! I promise I don't wear it oustide of the house these days though 😂 For commercial work, I’ve photographed snipers aiming at me so I don’t spook easily! I’m a bit of a techie, the creative one in a family of engineers & if I’m not behind my camera or editing, I love being outdoors with my dogs.

Full Description
Everyone's idea of a perfect wedding day is different ... I like to think its the same for my photographic approach -Composing a scene that reflects your personality - Against a naturally beautiful backdrop- Taking candid shots of people relaxed and 'in-the-moment' - Discreetly moving around snapping away - Relaxing even the shyest people in front of my camera is how I like to work. The love that surrounds any couple on their Wedding Day is tangible and for me it's always a privilege to capture it for them to see.

A photographer that felt like a friend
We are so happy we chose Emma as our photographer for our special day! Right from the start, she was friendly, informative and punctual with her communication. We first met Emma for a pre-wedding photo shoot near our home where we got to know her better and she took some fantastic photos of my husband-to-be and I. Not only were these photos stunning it gave us a chance to get to know Emma better and for us to understand how she works. She is simply lovely, made us feel so at ease and had brilliant ideas for our photographs. On the day itself, again, Emma was fantastic. As it was an Autumn/Winter venue with not-so-great weather, it wasn't ideal for photograph locations, but Emma was not hindered at all and produced fabulous photos throughout the day despite the conditions. She was great with our guests and manages to keep everyone in order for the group photos in a fun, light-hearted way! All the guests commented to us how great she was after the day (and how fantastic the photos were). A really valuable part of our day was the married couple's photoshoot with Emma, where we go off for fifteen minutes with Emma for some private photos. This allowed us to have a bit of quiet time to ourselves during a busy day. Emma also gave fantastic advice to us for our first dance, which we had not practiced, to ensure it looked great and she could get some more quality photos. In summary, I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a professional, talented and friendly photographer. We will certainly be using her again for future events and have recommended her to our friends!

Thank you both for taking the time to write this wonderfully informative review ! I think the rain gave us the opportunity to create some unique photographs together, a challenge which I thoroughly enjoyed ! Your wedding was simply stunning 📸

Incredible and so glad we found her
Despite there being a storm on the day of our wedding (trees fell down!), Emma was calm and so helpful. We got so many amazing pictures and she’s just super lovely! Talked us through everything a few days before the big day so we had all the details down and answered any questions we had.
Response from the supplier
Thank you for the kind words Mr & Mrs Boswell 😉 Storm Claudio did give us a bit if a challenge, but I really do love some of those dramatic photos we got of you !

The perfect photographer
Emma is outstanding. From our first meeting, Emma put my wife at ease. She doesn't like having her photo taken and Emma managed this with kindness and understanding. Our free pre-wedding shoot captured amazing photos of our first child. On the day itself, Emma had a back up plan for every eventuality and because we valued our time with our guests, when our first plan to go off site didn't work out, Emma had tricks and ideas for a fun and exciting mini-shoot. Her involvement in our day was simply amazing.
Response from the supplier
Thanks for taking time out to give me this great feedback ! Your wedding was great fun & I really had a great time creating those photographs for you. Shout out to Kit for being such an awesome lighting assistant !

Couldn't be happier!
The service Emma provided for our wedding was 5* and we are so so happy with the photo's we have received so far, I've cried (happy tears) every time watching the slide show sent to us less than 24 hours after our wedding. We can't wait to see the final album. Emma is very professional but also a lovely person which helped put us at ease on our wedding day. It was so nice to be able to meet Emma for our pre-wedding shoot which was included in our package. Thank you for everything, Hayley, Ramin and main boy Frank! xx

I returned to film photography when studying as a mature student at the Kent Institute of Art & Design & then Ravensbourne. 12 years ago I went digital with my first DSLR learning new techniques & I started building my own full time business about 5 years ago.
