Hi, I'm Martin, a London photographer since 2016. With a blend of documentary and editorial styles, I capture genuine moments, ensuring timeless memories for your wedding day.

FAQS

What has been your favourite experience?

Narrowing down a favorite is tough; I cherish all weddings. A standout was a winter destination wedding in the French Alps, where the ceremony on a frozen lake and a snowmobile ride to the mountain top for a breathtaking reception made it unforgettable. Another highlight was capturing a stunning wedding at Chiswick House for ITV's Ant & Dec Saturday Night Live in February 2022.

Do you do Micro Weddings?

Over the past few years, my passion has grown for capturing micro weddings, reveling in their intimacy. This allows me to forge deep connections with clients and their loved ones, ensuring an unforgettable day filled with personalised moments.

What if I’m camera shy?

I understand this concern from most of my clients, but with my gentle approach, there's no need to worry. Feeling camera shy is completely normal, but rest assured, I specialize in making couples feel relaxed and comfortable during our session.

What is your approach?

My primary goal is to deliver a captivating documentary-style experience, seizing genuine moments with a candid approach. During our couples shoot, I employ movement and communication to artistically showcase your love against stunning backdrops. Let's create unforgettable memories together.

What are your packages?

I offer a range of packages to suit different needs. I recognise that my clients have different budgets. My most popular package (Diamond) covers end of bridal preparations through to after the first dance, typically ending within an hour of the afterparty, roughly 10 hours. See more on my website for further details.

Testimonials

Our favourite aspect of the photos Martin took for us is how intimately they capture each moment, from the pre-ceremony anticipation through to the elation and joy of the reception. The photos bring us back into the memories and emotions of the day. And he manages this while staying out of the action, catching the genuine mood of our guests.

I found Martin through a listing website and the process could not have been easier. Martin responded to my enquiry within a few hours and then we had a video call with my fiancé to go through the day in full detail. We were getting married in a venue that Martin had not shot at before and I was incredibly impressed with how he took the time to visit and plan the best places for our photographs before the day itself. This was very reassuring, and, on the day, Martin took all the classic wedding photos I knew I wanted but also suggested some amazing additional shots to highlight the dress, venue or guests in a way I would never have thought of. Martin was professional but also put everyone at ease, all our guests came away saying how friendly he was! The finished photos were just brilliant, Martin sent a few over within a day or so for us to enjoy and the remainder within the next week. I couldn’t have been happier and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Martin (in fact… I would actively encourage it!)

Francesca & James

Having Martin be our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made! We were lucky that we had a few options of photographers but were so pleased we went with Martin. He was so responsive through the whole process and captured our day beautifully. He listened to what style of photos we wanted and gave suggestions on the day for some shots he thought would work well.. and they came out amazing! He did not disappoint and Martin, we really won't be able to thank you enough for capturing our day like you did. Would recommend for anyone looking for a wedding photographer!

Tom & Laura

It's my pleasure to say that Martin was an amazing photographer. Every photo was not only amazing, but completely professional. He mad it so difficult to decide on favourites. He completely delivered what we wanted and more. Every photo was special and unique. We highly recommend him and wish we could offer more that 5 stars. Thank you Martin!

Jayson & Don

Martin is incredibly talented and we are so happy with our photos. He really listened to what we wanted and more than delivered. He was great at directing our guests and really fast at sharing our first batch of photos.
