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.

The Magic of Mini Sessions

If you’re not familiar with mini-sessions, let me fill you in. They’re short, sweet, and to the point. Instead of a long, drawn-out photo shoot that leaves everyone (including the kids) exhausted, mini-sessions are designed to be quick and efficient. We’re talking 15-20 minutes, max. Jax Mini Sessions Studio is the perfect space to make capturing your family’s special moments effortless and fun.

One thing I love about the studio is that it’s perfect for families who have small kids that won’t last an hour. Whether your kids are tiny toddlers or all grown up, these moments are fleeting, and capturing them is a gift you’ll cherish forever. For photographers, Jax Mini Sessions Studio is your go-to spot, providing everything you need to make your family sessions go smoothly, from versatile backdrops to kid-friendly props.

Before booking, we will have a call to discuss what you are looking for and the best plans to have an awesome session with memories you’ll cherish forever!

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.
