Working Together
“At That Moment I Knew. I Knew The Way You Know About A Good Melon”
I want to capture you in a natural way. Because true love and joy don’t need a filter. Falling in love with my photography is the first step. But are we going to vibe?!

Your wedding photography experience with me
Your relationship with your wedding photographer really can make or break your wedding day. Because we’re going to spend all day together! So there’s no point choosing someone you feel awkward or self-conscious around. After all, this is your day! And you deserve to feel free to be your true selves and enjoy every second of it with comfort and confidence. So as your wedding photographer, I want to bring out every last drop of fun and romance from your day. And make you feel like absolute superstars from beginning to end.
The images I create aren’t forced or posed for the ‘gram. Your experience is what’s important to me, not likes on social media. So I’ll never force you into a situation that makes you feel uncomfortable or self-conscious just for the shot.
But if you’re willing to go the extra mile, climb that hill, catch that sunset or get your outfit wet in those waves, then I’m totally HERE FOR IT! I focus on the moments that are unforgettable and all the little moments hidden in the background that make your day so truly special.
Client love
“I can’t recommend Jesse more!”
She was unbelievably helpful on the morning of the wedding, reminding me and my bridesmaids about details we’d forgotten. She was so discrete and fantastic at being’invisible’. She was brilliant at getting everyone together for group photos, and also keeping my fiancé and me on track with the timings of the day. We got our photos back quickly and they are so beautiful, we love them and can’t wait to get them printed. Jesse really captured the day beautifully and we will treasure these photos forever. Thank you so much.

So Where Is My Photography Budget Going?
I think that it is very easy to get caught up in the budgeting of your wedding day as it can be very intense. It is important to consider your wedding images as an investment rather than just a transaction. With this helpful graph you will see that there is so much more that goes into curating your wedding day gallery. Much more than just me photographing your wedding.

FAQ’S
WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?
I have two Nikon cameras to shoot with and a selection of prime lenses and flashes.
DO WE GET TO MEET YOU BEFORE THE WEDDING?
It’s so important we have a great relationship from the very start. So I always suggest a phone conversation over Zoom or Facetime so we can get to know each other before we sign any contracts. You need to know that you vibe with me and like my personality before we spend your whole wedding day together!
DO WE HAVE TO FEED YOU?
Yes please! I’ll be on my feet all day and a hungry photographer is a grouchy photographer! Plus, some venues are in the middle of nowhere, so if I have to dash out for food I might end up missing something. If we’re all eating together then I’m already on the scene with my camera if anything happens.
WHAT IS YOUR TURN AROUND FOR EDITING?
I like to try and have all of my weddings edited within 6-12 weeks. But I know you’ll be itching to see them! So I always send a first-look gallery of around 100 images to make sure you have some photographs of your day whilst you wait.
CAN WE HAVE THE RAW FILES?
The short answer to this is no! Firstly, I take so many photographs on the day just to check my light or composition, so you wouldn’t want the majority of them anyway. Plus, RAW files can only be opened on special (and expensive!) software, and if you don’t have that, they’d be inaccessible to you. Much better to have all the best 800+ images fully edited in my signature style than thousands of images you don’t want and probably can’t view anyway.
