Fabulous photography
From the moment we met Helen we knew she was the one to photograph our wedding. She is loud, bubbly and enthusiastic, just perfect. Helen makes everyone feel comfortable Infront of the camera. The results are amazing. Love my wedding photos. Would highly recommend to anyone who wants fantastic photos to book Helen.

Extremely Professional but Caring
Always had a smile. Knew how to make all relaxed. No fuss. No panic. Took inclement weather in her stride. Warm. Made the occasion even more joyful. Unobtrusive. Very natural so guests forgot she was pointing a lens at them. Cajoled everyone in a civil and beguiling yet professional manner to “pose”. A credit to the profession.

The nicest and most professional photographer you’ll meet
I have worked with Helen on so many weddings over the years. She is always so professional and easy to work with. Her personality shines through on every job and she makes the experience so much nicer and easier. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Helen to friends and family and regularly do. Good luck Helen!

The most amazing photographer
Helen is an incredible photographer. She is so easy to work with. For both our engagement shoot and on our wedding she’s made us feel comfortable and relaxed. She listened to everything we wanted and made sure she’s captured the moments and looks most special to us. All of our guests commented on Helens professionalism and enthusiasm and praised her for organising photos and also blending into the background. I highly reccommend Helen not only for her breathtaking photography skills but for her personality. She was a pleasure to have photograph our wedding and I wouldn’t have changed a thing!

Simply amazing!
Helen is absolutely wonderful. From the moment we first met her she was genuine kind and funny. We warmed to her right away and had no problem deciding to choose her for our wedding. We asked for a slightly bespoke package which she accommodated with no issue. We had an engagement shoot also which was just fab and the pictures came out glorious! Her approach is speedy but she makes sure she captures the shot she’s looking for and you don’t feel like you are having to hold poses forever. On the day of our wedding Helen’s presence was only felt when needed. I can’t wait to see the shots of our big day and all the lovely moments she captured.

Relaxed, fun and kind - everything you want at your wedding
Helen was just fantastic. She literally lay face-down in the mud on our wedding day to make sure she got the perfect pictures - they were so natural, everyone felt very comfortable around her. Would 100% recommend Helen - she made our special day perfect.

Made our day
Helen photographed our wedding on a very wet and cold October day but that didn't stop her from getting the best outdoors woodland/autumn photos (even if it mean't she got a bit muddy). She had some fantastic ideas and these were just stunning.

Amazing photographer
Helen is a passionate and enthusiastic photographer. She puts all her energy into making sure she gets all the best shots at the best angles regardless of her own safety at times - lying in the middle of roads, climbing out windows and attempting to get into a pond! So many of our guests commented on how fabulous she was and were very impressed. Our photos are stunning and capture so many perfect moments, Thank you Helen!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

Too many to choose! Loved the one that got featured by bride book as one of the best wedding photos in 2017 of my bride and groom dancing to a busker in Picadilly Circus. Also Nigerian style money pinning is incredible to watch due to all the dancing and commotion so this is a great memory for me.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, capturing the moment

What about your business are you most proud of?

I built it up myself from nothing and have now photographed over 300 weddings and have one of the best reputations in the industry.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Book things in advance and ask if you get this years prices- you can save a fortune :)

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

All different gin bottles with flowers in as the bride and groom love gin, or forget me not seeds as wedding favours.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I meet in person if they are ok with doing that for a chatter and then we go from there there I am guided by what the couple want.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

Weirdly saying this as a photographer it isn't a photo, It is taking a moment with each other.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

A bride sitting on her groom shoulders with the dress covering his head so it looked like her legs are stilts so funny still makes me laugh :D

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrellas and wellies :). Rain definately doesn't ruin a day, but peoples attitude to rain can, so just go with it, you can get amazing pictures it is not possible to get when it is not raining :)

Describe how you got into photography.

I qualified in art, design and photography, I originally wanted to become an artist! :)
