Natural, Relaxed Wedding Photography in Essex and Beyond
Real moments, relaxed portraits, and photography that feels like you.
Hi, I’m John.
I’m a full-time wedding photographer based in Essex, with over 15 years of experience photographing weddings across the UK and beyond.
I document the day as it unfolds, capturing real moments alongside relaxed, natural portraits, all in a way that feels easy and unobtrusive.
MY STYLE
I document weddings in a natural, unobtrusive way, focusing on real moments as they happen.
Alongside that, I create relaxed couple portraits and modern family photographs, keeping everything efficient and easy so you can enjoy your day without feeling like you’re on a photoshoot.
The result is a set of images that feel genuine and timeless.

Your celebration, your way
I think a wedding should be whatever you want it to be! I there is a certain tradition you don’t like then don’t do it! Want to do something unconventional? I say go for it!
There is so much inspiration for couples, such as wedding blogs and social media. You can have fun planning all aspects of the fun and festivities, from the flowers and confetti to the cake and the reception and of course the photographic style.
I aim for a natural and relaxed style of photos, and I love making creative, modern and fun images of you and your guests.
The most important thing is that you enjoy every priceless moment, I will will make sure I capture it all, so your memories can be preserved forever.
