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.

My style is fresh and relaxed, and I really focus on telling your story by keeping things very natural and fun.

Destination Pre-Wedding Photography

What is a pre wedding Shoot? A pre wedding shoot is a couples photography session or elopement photography that can be taken in unique locations in London, the UK or anywhere in the world. Shoots can last anywhere from 2 hours up to 3-4 days for adventure pre wedding shoots. The idea is to get some incredible images in locations that would typically not be possible on a wedding day, and it’s a great chance for you to get some epic photographs to use before your wedding day.

Popular Pre-Wedding Locations in London

London engagement photography is very popular and there are so many iconic images that can be captured around the city. Some location suggestions for the best pre wedding photography in London include:

  • Tower Bridge and Tower of London
  • Westminster and Houses of Parliament
  • Big Ben and iconic red phone boxes and buses
  • St Paul's Cathedral and Covent Garden
  • The River Thames and Southbank
  • Notting Hill

UK and Worldwide Destinations

If you are looking for a pre-wedding session in London, Paris, Iceland, Santorini, Scotland or any other destination pre-shoot around the world then you’re in the right place! Each photoshoot is completely customised, and I spend a lot of time planning the perfect itinerary and offering suggestions for you to get the most out of your engagement photography. Destinations such as Iceland, the Scottish Highlands, and Santorini will benefit from having a car so that we can drive between locations and explore some of the more remote and unique locations.

Planning Your Photoshoot

I am able to recommend makeup artists and hair stylists, and I have a large number of contacts in London and around the world who are able to come to your hotel on the morning of your shoot. I can also recommend hotels that are in the best location to make the most of your photography session. This is useful if we are travelling between areas and spending multiple days on your shoot.

Contact Information: Please get in touch with your date and location of your destination wedding and I’ll send you a quote to capture it within 24 hours. I’d love to hear from you. Alternatively you can email me directly at [email protected] or message me using WhatsApp at 07738418846.

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.
