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.

Modern Photography Excellence: From Street Moments to Portrait Artistry

Our curated collection highlights the most outstanding contemporary photographers to ignite your creativity and fuel your passion for photography.

The Essence of Street and Documentary Photography

Street photography contains everything from street portraiture, to classic candid moments in black & white, to a beautifully composed (and likely posed) image. As a master of this craft, Paul Lukin captures candid real-life fleeting instances in the streets of Bangkok to unveil a dark, mysterious, and dreamlike city. Through his use of black and white, he is able to distill the essence of his subjects, creating photographs that are both beautiful and thought-provoking. Lukin works on long-term projects, in pursuit of capturing raw and unfiltered emotions of the human experience.

Similar energy is found in Buenos Aires, where photographers embrace the unpredictable. One artist notes: "I love walking the streets, they are my jungle. I enjoy observing their dynamics and details, talking to people, learning about their lives, strengthening bonds, and that permeates my work." In this genre, the photographer wanders and interacts, searching for combinations of people, lights, colors, and shadows. Whether at a sporting event, a popular festival or a protest demonstration, that energy lifts the work up.

The Importance of Portrait Photography

Portrait photography gives you a vast opportunity to capture emotions. Eyes speak a thousand words. And that’s one of the most important aspects of portrait photography. Your photo will speak a thousand words without you writing a paragraph about it. Portrait photos look stunning because of the sharp features of the model in front of a hazy background, but it takes a lot of skill and experience to take the perfect portrait shot. A good portrait is a combination of various things: lighting, location, creativity, and many more things.

Is it essential to learn portrait photography to become a photographer? Yes. You can use its skill in wildlife photography and abstract photography because both involve understanding how light and background can make your photo look better. Moreover, portrait shots establish a connection between the photographer and the viewer.

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.
