EDITORIAL, LUXURY & EMOTIVE
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Photography is more than a record of a day: it is the first chapter of your family legacy.

I document weddings with a gentle, editorial eye - focusing on the honest, unscripted moments and the sophisticated details that make your celebration uniquely yours. Based in Cheshire, available worldwide.

a blend of refined elegance and honest storytelling.

I believe the most beautiful images are found in the unscripted space between the poses. My work is unintentionally unobtrusive, allowing your day to unfold naturally while I capture the fleeting glances, the quiet touches, and the meaningful nuances that define your celebration.


Drawing from my Swedish roots and love for natural, cinematic light, I document your day with an editorial eye - creating a visual legacy that feels as honest as it is high end.

FAQ’s

  • I don’t have a maximum number of photos that I deliver. I will carefully select around 600 photos that best tells the story of your day.

  • Yes of course, I will always capture them if you want them. If it’s important to you to have photos with the people closest to you, they are a great way of making sure that you get them. If you don’t like the sound of formal photos we can always come up with a way to make them more fun and creative.

  • Ideally some of the couples photos will be done during drinks reception and some later on in the day, closer to sunset when you can hopefully catch the gorgeous golden hour.

    I also take candid photos of you during the day, so make sure you spend as much time together as possible for me to catch all those beautiful emotional and intimate moments.

  • Rain will not ruin the photos, and it tells the story of your day. If you are happy to brave the rain it can make for some beautiful photos. If you prefer not to go out in the rain we can do the couples photos and group photos indoors.

  • I can travel anywhere - and any travel fees will be included in the final proposal.

  • Whilst I try my best to take photos of as many guests as possible, my focus will mainly be on you and the people closest to you. When there’s a second shooter there is a greater chance of getting photos of a bigger portion of your guests. I will always encourage you to let me know before the wedding if there’s any specific photos you would like so I can make sure I get them for you.

  • I do! I absolutely love the look of film photographs and I am more than happy to add film into final proposal, if this is something you are interested in.
