Cornwall Wedding Photographer

Unposed, Natural, Relaxed Professional Photography

Hey! I'm Steven. I am a Cornwall Wedding Photographer. I have been professionally photographing weddings since 2004 and have captured hundreds of happy couples. Before I was a wedding photographer I was a professional music photographer working worldwide with big acts. My approach to wedding photography is simple: to create a whole story that documents your most important day in the most natural and beautiful way possible. Working on all that the pictures are captured for forever. I will always look to capture your special day naturally and organically, documenting the fun, laughter and happiness as and how it occurs. I cover set up, love, photographs of your big day directing you or your guests. I follow the narrative of the day and capture all of the magical moments.

Essential Steps for Planning Your Wedding Media

1. Verify your venue and wedding date first

You can’t have a wedding date without a Hawaii wedding venue reserved. Being able to lock in your wedding date and a venue can allow you to move forward with wedding planning, creating your guest list and having save the dates. It also ensures that the time you spend researching wedding vendors like event planners and wedding photographers isn’t wasted because many of the best vendors have full schedules and will require a final date to provide accurate pricing.

2. Decide on your ideal photography color and style

First and foremost, it’s important to settle on a color and photography style early on before you begin your search. Photographers typically have 1 or 2 main styles and are not able to produce images that are outside of their area of expertise. You can narrow down what you specifically want, whether it’s classic, lifestyle, or a more modern, photojournalistic take.

Common Color Styles:

  • Dark and Moody: This style is much more darker, lower in contrast and often with a green or brown tint. It emulates a more foresty/earthy early morning feel and has an emotional vibe.
  • Light and Airy: This is a bright color style for weddings.

Engagement and Couple Photographer Cornwall

As well as being a wedding photographer in Cornwall I am also a professional couple and engagement photoshoots. I love photographing love! In which I do love having photographed couples for the last 15 years in Cornwall and the rest of the world.

Whether you are a new couple or have been married for 50+ years, a professional couple is a wonderful gift. I have photographed couples of many stages of their relationship.

I always make sure the photoshoots are relaxed, unposed, and fun. Not many people enjoy having their photos taken, including me, which is why I make sure that you are both relaxed and happy during the shoot.

Engagement photoshoots are a great way to get used to the camera before your wedding and are offered as part of my wedding photography.
