Colourful, joyful wedding photography for people doing things their own way

If you're planning a wedding that feels like you, you're very much in the right place. That might be a stately home, a zoo, a pub, a walled garden or a field full of garden games. It might have drag queens, dogs, alpacas, magicians, pizza, confetti, emotional speeches, or your mates turning up in inflatable dinosaur suits.

I photograph weddings for big-hearted humans who care more about people than perfection.

02 — Full of feeling

Colourful because it's full of feeling

The weddings I love most aren't necessarily colourful because every single thing is bright and bold. They're colourful because they're full of feeling.

That's what I'm there to capture.

01Big laughs.
02Happy tears.
03Ridiculous dance moves.
04Tiny in-between moments.
05The people you love being completely themselves.
03My approach

No awkward posing. No wedding day weirdness. Just you and your people.

I know most people don't spend their lives being professionally photographed, and I absolutely do not expect you to know what to do with your hands.

My approach is relaxed, colourful and candid, with gentle direction when you need it and plenty of space for the real moments to happen naturally.

I'll help you feel comfortable, keep things easy, hype you up when needed, and quietly disappear into the background when the good stuff is unfolding all by itself.

Your wedding day isn’t a photoshoot. It’s a day to be lived. To laugh, hug, cry, dance and have the absolute best time with your favourite people. I’m just there to bottle up the joy.
04 — The packages

Hiring a wedding photographer shouldn't be rocket science 🚀

Most of my couples go for one of my three main packages. It just depends on how much of the day you'd like captured, from the key moments to the full prep-to-party story.

Whether you're planning a smaller celebration or a full-day extravaganza, the heart of it stays the same: relaxed, colourful storytelling with me there as your wedding bestie, hype girl and professional moment-catcher.

So, what's included?

Every package includes a get-to-know-you pre-booking chat, a wedding WhatsApp to keep in touch, and a pre-wedding meeting so we can have a proper natter about your plans before the day.

You'll get a sneak peek within a week of the wedding, and your full gallery 8–12 weeks after your big day.

Your images arrive in a blooming beautiful online gallery, live for at least 12 months, where you can print, share and download your photos as often as you like.

You'll also have a personal licence to print and share your images, because these memories are yours to relive, show off and absolutely spam your favourite people with.

Travel anywhere in the UK is included with Peake and Aldrin, and there are a few fun add-ons if you fancy making things even more out of this world ✨

01 · The shorter day

Armstrong

Shorter coverage for wedding days where you still want a beautiful chunk of the story captured, just not all of it.

It usually works brilliantly for the ceremony, confetti, group photos, couple portraits, drinks reception and all those lovely "we just got married!" moments with your people. You can also use it as six hours in a row to capture whichever parts of the day matter most to you.

Perfect if you're keeping things a little more compact but still want your day captured with all the joy, colour and personality it deserves.

This package includes:
  • ✦A get-to-know-you pre-booking chat
  • ✦A wedding WhatsApp to keep in touch
  • ✦A pre-wedding meeting to chat through plans
  • ✦Up to 6 hours of coverage
  • ✦Travel within the Nottingham area
  • ✦A sneak peek within a week of the wedding
  • ✦Your final gallery delivered 8–12 weeks after your big day
  • ✦An online gallery, live for at least 12 months, to print, share and download your photos as often as you like
  • ✦An unlimited personal licence to print and share your images

02 · From prep till dancing

Peake

This is my most popular package, and for good reason.

It usually covers the morning buzz right through to just after the first dance, which gives you a lovely big chunk of the story. There's plenty of time for the getting-ready bits, ceremony, confetti, group photos, couple portraits, speeches, evening guests arriving and those first dance floor moments.

Basically, it's the sweet spot for most full wedding days.

This package includes:
  • ✦A get-to-know-you pre-booking chat
  • ✦A wedding WhatsApp to keep in touch
  • ✦A pre-wedding meeting to chat through plans
  • ✦Up to 9 hours of coverage
  • ✦600–800 images
  • ✦Travel anywhere in the UK
  • ✦A sneak peek within a week of the wedding
  • ✦Your final gallery delivered 8–12 weeks after your big day
  • ✦An online gallery, live for at least 12 months, to print, share and download your photos as often as you like
  • ✦An unlimited personal licence to print and share your images

03 · The ultimate party package

Aldrin

For couples who want the full story, from start to almost finish.

This is the one if you want me there from the morning excitement right through to the dance floor madness, emotional hugs and everyone fully letting loose.

It's perfect if you've got lots happening across the day, want morning prep and a proper chunk of the evening party, or just don't want anything to feel squeezed in.

This package includes:
  • ✦A get-to-know-you pre-booking chat
  • ✦A wedding WhatsApp to keep in touch
  • ✦A pre-wedding meeting to chat through plans
  • ✦Up to 12 hours of coverage
  • ✦800–900 images
  • ✦Travel anywhere in the UK
  • ✦A sneak peek within a week of the wedding
  • ✦Your final gallery delivered 8–12 weeks after your big day
  • ✦An online gallery, live for at least 12 months, to print, share and download your photos as often as you like
  • ✦An unlimited personal licence to print and share your images

Smaller Weddings & Elopements

Small days still deserve big feelings.

Not every wedding needs full-day coverage, and I absolutely love smaller celebrations too.

Whether you're planning a register office wedding, an intimate ceremony, a pub lunch, a city elopement or a small day with your favourite humans, this option is for the moments that matter most.

How It Works

1

You enquire.

Send me your date, venue and a little bit about what you're planning. Tell me the good stuff: the dogs, the drag queens, the dinosaur suits, the pub garden. I want to hear it all.

2

We have a natter.

If I'm free, we'll book in a relaxed Zoom or call so we can chat properly. It's not scary, I promise. It's just a chance to see if I'm the right person for you and your day.

3

You book.

Once you're ready to go ahead, I'll send over your booking details. Your date is secured once your contract is signed and the booking fee is paid.

4

We keep chatting.

I don't disappear after booking. I'll be around if you need help, have questions, want to set up a WhatsApp group, or just need someone to squeal at about your plans.

5

You get married.

You have the best day with your favourite people. I capture it all: the beautiful bits, the ridiculous bits, the teary bits and the bits you didn't even realise were happening.

6

You get your photos.

You'll get a sneak peek within a week, then your full gallery within 8–12 weeks.

You're Probably My Kind Of People If…

  • You care more about people than perfect traditions.
  • You want photos that feel alive, colourful and full of emotion.

  • You're planning something that feels properly like you.
  • You want a photographer who'll blend in, hype you up and probably end up feeling like a mate.
  • You want the big moments captured, but also the tiny blink-and-you'll-miss-it ones.
  • You believe pets at weddings are always a good idea.
  • You want to feel safe, relaxed and completely yourselves.
09 — Mission briefing

A Few Handy Questions

Absolutely. Most of my couples tell me this. You don't need to know how to pose, where to look, what to do with your hands, or how to become professional models overnight. I'll guide you when you need it and keep things relaxed, easy and very much like you.

Yes. I usually recommend keeping the formal group list fairly small so you don't spend ages standing around. We'll chat it through before the day and make sure all the important people are included.

Yes please. Dogs, cats, alpacas, tarantulas and all beloved creatures are welcome. If they're part of your family, they're part of the story.

Yes. Always. All love, all identities, and all humans being fully themselves are welcome here.

Yes. I'm based in Nottingham and photograph weddings all over the UK. Travel anywhere in the UK is included with Peake and Aldrin. Armstrong includes travel within the Nottingham area, and hourly coverage includes travel within Nottingham city. Anywhere further is just a small travel cost, and I'll always tell you upfront.

You'll get a sneak peek within a week of the wedding, and your full gallery will be with you within 8–12 weeks.
