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.

A Little Bit About Me

I love being a wedding photographer in Cornwall. I've 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. Photography has always been a huge passion of mine ever since I was a child.

I grew up in Cornwall but have enjoyed travelling the world as much as possible since my early 20s. Not only do I love photographing weddings in Cornwall, I've never been lucky enough to capture couples special days all over the UK, Europe and the rest of the world.

How To Plan A Dreamy Cape Cod Elopement | The Complete Guide

White sandy beaches, charming lighthouses, towering dunes, and beautiful marshlands provide stunning backdrops for a Cape Cod elopement. Cape Cod is a hooked shaped peninsula extending into the Atlantic Ocean located in Southeastern Massachusetts. If your dream beach wedding consists of a ceremony by the Atlantic Ocean with just your partner or with a small select group of close family members and friends then eloping on Cape Cod is the perfect option.

Why You May Choose To Have A Cape Cod Elopement

  • You envision yourself having a day with just you and your partner or a select few close family members or friends to watch you say “I do”.
  • Having a sunrise ceremony on the beach and then exploring Cape Cod with your best friend the rest of the day is totally up your alley!
  • You love the ocean and when you close your eyes and picture where you’d like to say your vows you have your toes dipped in the sand.
  • Your ideal wedding meal of choice is local Cape Cod seafood- fried clams, lobster rolls, oysters from Wellfleet.
  • By opting for a Cape Cod elopement or intimate wedding you can still have the beach wedding of your dreams, but incorporate your values for sustainability.

Travel and Logistics for Your Cape Cod Wedding

Getting to the Cape involves various travel options depending on your starting location. The following table provides estimated driving times without traffic:

Route Estimated Driving Time
Boston to Falmouth 1 hour and 15 minutes
Boston to Chatham 1 hour and 35 minutes
NYC to Falmouth 4 hours and 30 minutes
NYC to Chatham 4 hours and 45 minutes

If your final destination on the Cape is to Provincetown, then skip the traffic and hop on one of the many ferry options. Boston Harbor Cruises: The P-Town Ferry, Salacia, has an average trip time of 90 minutes underway from dock to dock. Bay State Cruise Company: Travels from Boston to P-town in 95 minutes. For those flying, the Barnstable Municipal Airport located in Hyannis (HYA) and Provincetown Municipal Airport (PVC) are your best options.

Photography Styles and Full Day Coverage

Professional photography is essential to tell the entire story of your celebration. David A. Smith, a Cape Cod Wedding + Elopement Photographer, notes: “I will not impose a time limit on your wedding + elopement day.” You give a start time, and he is there until all the events of the day and/or reception are covered. David provides couples with photos shot DIGITALLY AND ON FILM to give couples dreamy cinematic-style photography.

Sarah Murray is another expert option, being an award winning fine art elopement, wedding, portrait, and boudoir photographer based on Cape Cod. Fascinated by light, history and nature, Sarah is devoted to capturing portraits that tell the story of who you are today. Her goal is to evoke the fresh breeze of Spring, the first warm hints of Summer, the golden beauty of Autumn and the wonderland of Winter.

Top Venue Inspiration on the Cape

Pelham House Resort

The Pelham House Resort is a hidden gem on the coast of Cape Cod. It is a picturesque venue with its charming architecture and elegant interiors. It’s the perfect blend of modern luxury and classic New England charm. This stunning indoor event space provides breathtaking ocean views from the many windows that surround the room.

Wychmere Beach Club

Wychmere Beach Club offers a quintessential Cape Cod wedding vibe. Coastal decor glows in the candlelight as the sun sets. The Overlook is a beautiful grass area, overlooking a picturesque harbor in Harwich Port right around the corner from the venue. Not only can you take advantage of the beach for portraits, but you can also hold your ceremony on the sand, sharing vows in front of family and friends.

The Mass Gov website is an incredible resource for all your information on what to do before, during, and after you get married in Massachusetts. Additionally, some photographers like David A. Smith can also help coordinate a wedding. If you need any assistance in planning, vendor selection, travel arrangements, scheduling, or any other situation that might arise, expert assistance is available every step of the way for you and your partner.

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.
