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.

Understanding Your Wedding Vibe

Your wedding vibe, also known as your wedding style or aesthetic, details the look or feel you want to represent on your wedding day. Your wedding vibe encompasses a variety of factors such as venue, attire, color palette, decor, and florals. It also assists your vendors with bringing your wedding day vision to life!

Wedding Vibe Key Characteristics Ideal Venues
Bohemian Macramé designs, ornate rugs, festive pillows, and earthy, nature inspired colors. Clifftops, forests, or under a tent.
Modern Clean lines, minimalistic designs, monochromatic color scheme, and geometric decor. City Halls, trendy lofts, or luxury hotel rooftops.
Romantic Light and soft color palette, delicate lighting, and an abundance of ethereal florals. Botanical gardens, greenhouses, or a gorgeous estate.
Rustic Lace, wood decor and furniture, string lights, and mason jars. Wineries, barns, and cabins.
Vintage Antique furniture, typewriters, Victorian trinket boxes, and stunning candelabras. Historical buildings, museums, or opera houses.

Ethereal and Romantic Ideas

One romantic wedding idea is a woodland wedding full of nature and natural beauty. Think about a fairy garden-type vibe. There is something so precious and ethereal about natural tones used in weddings. There are so many benefits to having an ethereal-themed wedding. Because decorations are usually minimal, you are honoring the earth and making excellent choices in reducing your carbon footprint. If you find a garden location, you can use natural or planned florals as decoration instead of paying thousands of dollars for your own florals.

Lighting is a massive contender to how a mood is set. You want to take advantage of natural light in every way possible for an ethereal vibe. However, if you need lighting, opt for fairy lighting or soft lights. There is nothing more beautiful than greenery with soft mood lighting. Green is a magnificent color known to soothe anxiety and evoke feelings of abundance and peace.

Practical Tips for a Unique Celebration

  • Personal Attire: For a bold, boho wedding gown, choose designs with Aztec inspired lace print or a fitted silhouette complemented by embroidered leaf and vine details.
  • Catering Ideas: When choosing foods and desserts, follow the less is more philosophy. Naked cakes have been trendy for some time, but they complete a beautiful and light wedding vibe. Couples can serve made-to-order pizza, burgers and tacos for their guests as the perfect comfort food combo.
  • Atmosphere: My advice would be to throw away any "rules" and just do what you want! Think about how you want to feel. No matter what style or theme you choose for your wedding, Pinterest is a great place to find ideas and inspiration.

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.
