Your wedding day should be fun, a celebration of your original selves and your love for each other. How? Well, you actually have to do fun things and be genuinely excited about what you have planned. But you know this already, and we love you for it. That's why we're on board with whatever crazy ideas you have planned for the wedding. If it makes you smile, you have our full backing, and we cannot wait to hear about it.
"There's an ever-growing pressure to make everything perfect, to keep everyone happy, and to do what someone else says I should be doing", says Jane. Don't be like Jane (sorry if your name is Jane).
We are not going to be dragging you away from the party for two hours and posing you like we're doing a shoot for the front cover of Vogue, sooo not our vibe. More important than capturing those perfect aesthetics is the chaos of a band of weirdos around you, all celebrating together, shouting, singing, dancing, hiking, laughing, and ugly crying together. Great love, in all forms, is kinda frickin' great, and we want you to be present, soaking up every second of it.
We're just a husband and wife, who happen to love filming and photographing happy people being their best authentic selves. We love producing photos and films that reflect the couple's vibe and tell their incredible love story. We genuinely want the absolute best for the couples we work with (we'll probably end up being lifelong friends... no, really).
"We're planning an elopement on top of a mountain "
We'll dust off the walking boots and help you plan!
“I want to add an engagement shoot, but I'm not sure where to go? “
We can help you decide with our knowledge of what looks epic and will fit your unique personality.
"I don't know if we want the ceremony and speeches in full or not."
You don't need to decide now, choose after the wedding, we'll capture it anyways!
"I'm worried we’ll get too drunk and forget to capture the night?"
We'll be partying right alongside the most hardcore guests until the sun comes up, camera in hand to capture your night in all its glory.
"I want to keep the dance floor full throughout the night"
We can recommend the best bands that will leave your guests sweaty but smiling.
"I want my 4 legged best friend with us on the day"
We can help scout out dog-friendly hotels and venues (we had to do this for our wedding).

Tell us as little or as much as you like about your wedding plans, we love hearing all the details, especially the date if you’ve got one in mind! Got burning questions? Fire away, we’re all ears.
We’ll check our calendar and confirm availability. If we’re free, we’ll send over our full brochure packed with everything you need to get started planning your journey with us.
Book a call with us, it’ll feel more like catching up with old friends than a meeting. You choose exactly what you want to book us for, and once you're happy, we’ll secure your date with a £300 deposit.
Book your engagement shoot, it’s like a practice hike before the big adventure. Get comfy in front of the camera and squash any nerves ahead of the big day.
Now we’re in it together! We'll send loads of handy info, be your go-to for any wedding-related advice, send a questionnaire to get all the juicy deets, and create a WhatsApp group so you’ve got us right in your pocket.
You get married and have the absolute best day, we’ll be there capturing all the adventure. Then, while you soak it all in, we’ll keep you updated while you wait to relive it all through your photos / films!
We are on the dance floor capturing all the best movers and we are right there with you until we have all the coverage we need or you tell us to bugger off. We may suggest a quick golden hour shoot, too. We'll tell you when the time is right, allowing you to make an educated decision, if you’re having way too much fun then let’s keep partying!
We'll already be there whilst you're still in your PJs, getting shots of the venue, and surrounding area. When you're dressed and caffeinated, we'll come to meet you, ready for any extra encouragement and hype. We'll capture more details, prep shots, and first looks before heading to the ceremony in plenty of time to capture you arriving.
We ensure you have time for a couples shoot, possibly more depending on your social battery (extroverted introverts over here, we get it). This can be as long as you want. We capture speeches, avoid pictures of you eating, and head for a quick break before we return for the cake cut and first dance.
Photos freeze a moment in perfect stillness, letting your memory fill in the story. Film adds the sound, movement, and emotion you can’t get from a still image. Each does what the other can’t, and together, they tell the whole story. You’ll want both, trust us.
You bet ya, we do! We quit our jobs so we could travel, so if you're planning on going somewhere outside the UK, let us know, and we can provide a bespoke package just for you. Check out our bucket list to see where we have yet to travel.
In the UK, no. We live in a van and love to travel. If you're outside of the UK then get in touch and we can chat more about travel arrangements.
We have a large community of professional photographers and videographers who get our vibe to call on should the worst happen. Of course, it would take exceptional circumstances for us not to be there ourselves.
Embrace it. We can accommodate all weather and know it will add to your day. If you're planning an elopement, we may discuss alternative dates, as a tornado and a boat ride won't mix (or so we're guessing).
Whilst Gemma is in charge of photos and Stu film, we are both well versed in each other's craft, which would be helpful should you be getting ready in entirely different locations from one another (we can cover both).
We'll either arrive the night before and stay at the venue so we're ready to go as soon as you are, or we'll park nearby to arrive early (you'll still be in your PJs). We'll leave when you ask us to (hopefully not before close).
We make it fun or otherwise completely natural. We're here to help guide you during any couples shoot, make you laugh, and turn your attention to each other rather than the camera. No awkward posing, that's a promise.
If you expect us to dress suited and booted, we're not for you. We won't dress shabby, but expect us in converse, jeans, or a casual dress. We ask that you allow us to dress comfortably so that we can be on our feet all day (and still smiling).
This depends on how busy we are, we work extra hard to deliver our best work. We don't give deadlines per se, as we never want our work to feel rushed, but on average, you can expect the photos in around 12 weeks, and films 3-6 months.
Unfortunately, no. We work incredibly hard to choose and work with the best images and provide a gallery you'll want to look through repeatedly. If there's a photograph we haven't worked on, there'll be a reason why. However, we provide an option to add raw film footage to your package.
We retain the copyright to all media provided, allowing us to share it for marketing purposes and submit our work for publication (magazines/awards). However, we grant you lifelong printing and posting rights to everything provided, so you can share on social media or print for your own personal use (to which we encourage both).
Choosing the right music for your film is a big deal, something we really take time with. The music has to vibe with the footage of your day. We ask about your music tastes, what you like / don't like to help inform our choice and you can send us a Spotify playlist with your fav jams. We can't use copyrighted music that we don't have a license for (e.g. popular songs like Ed Sheeran) but we use the best music licensing platforms to find the best soundtrack for your wedding.
