Welcome Guide
Hey! I’m Pril
Pril joined the team in 2024, and we’re partners in life & business and as newly engaged we’re so excited to be part of your day.
Hey! I’m Steph
Steph has been photographing weddings for 10years, and over the last 4 years has become the inclusive representation that the wedding industry needs & deserves.
Pril has been a film photographer for many years, and now shoots digital too.
It’s likely you’ve had a call with one of us, and that’s the person you’ll likely to see at your wedding. However we are sometimes both there, if you want us, help with film and video options & are each others second photographers too
What to expect
We’re an inclusive and diverse Wedding Photography duo, ready to capture your day in the way you want it to happen.
We’re not one for traditions, and love something casual, relaxed and fun that really sums you up as a couple.
We’re so glad you've booked us, and we’re so excited to be photographing your day.
Closer to the time we'll talk more about the timeline of your day and what you'd like captured, but for now if you need us or have any questions at all then please just email.
On the day we’ll be ready to capture everything and anything, each smile or laugh, every tear or emotional hug. We'll talk about what's important to you and make sure you have a great time whilst getting awesome photos of the day.
Documentary wedding photography
What does it mean?
As we mainly focus on documentary style as wedding photographers. we want the most natural, candid, authentic photos. We want you to be fully involved in your day, together, with friends & family and the joy and love that comes with it. Being able to see the connection between you & truly photograph the story of the day
We pose very little, although may direct slightly to get the most out of your images.
We may not do the same thing that your cousins photographer did, but we always think about your full gallery and the story of your wedding day in everything we photograph
We’re still really keen on working collaboratively, so if you need more direction or have ideas of your own we’re so down for that too
Dance like no one’s watching
From our photography you'll see a natural, intimate and authentic style, capturing emotion and love.
Although we will ask you to pose a little, we’re here for al the raw and real moments.
We really just look for the love, connection and emotion within the images we capture. Our editing style is a little darker with muted and warm tones, We work with natural light as much as possible, and rarely “photoshop” images- as it’s really timportant to document your day how it happened.
We are documentary photographers 80% of the day, meaning we won't be posing you to get a certain shot whilst getting ready or that your parents think you need. We simply capturing the real life of your day.
Group shots are where this changes the most, to get those stand and smile moments with friends & family
Wedding Day Tips
GIVE US YOUR TIME
The main thing we need on your Wedding day is time, and as it can feel rushed and go by so quickly, it's important you get the most out of your day too.
Making sure you get the right timings for your day can really help it flow really nicely, not feel rushed and be sure to get the best from your photos.
DO WHAT'S IMPORTANT TO YOU
As a relaxed photographer, the best thing we can suggest is doing things on your Wedding day for you. Ask yourself why you're cutting the cake or having a first dance, if you want your Father to walk you down the isle and please don’t only men do all the speeches.
If you still want these things, then great, amazing, they'll be so lovely- however if you'd prefer to spend your time and money on other things, that's totally awesome too.
CANDIDS, DETAILS & LOVE
We always focus on a few things through the day, with camera in hand almost all day. Candid photos, those natural shots of you and your guests, are always high on my list. As well as this we will make sure we capture all the little details, that you've spent time and/or money on.
Laughing, crying, love and emotion is what will drive my images.

All day photography timeline example
MORNING PREP
Usually we’ll arrive 2 hours before the ceremony, if you're getting ready at the same location or together then we can obviously cover you both otherwise I'll confirm who we be covered for getting ready photos. It's always great to be ready around 30mins before the ceremony
CEREMONY
On average this is around 30 minutes
CONFETTI & CONGRATULATIONS
15-20 Minutes
GROUP SHOTS & DRINKS RECEPTION
It's best to have 2 hours for this, group photos will take 30-45 minutes however we want you to spend time with your guests too.
Your couple portraits will also usually be done at this time, although later in the evening may work too depending on your timeline and time of year that you're getting married.
WEDDING BREAKFAST & SPEECHES
2 hours
CUTTING CAKE
10 minutes
FIRST DANCE & DANCING
5 minutes & then we’ll stay for a few songs after SO STAY ON THE DANCE FLOOR!
WANT THE BEST CONFETTI PHOTOS?!
Use paper circle confetti
this is the confetti to use for the best photos, it flies & falls perfectly, the colours pop & it’s so much fun. most are eco friendly and really the only way to get the most awesome confetti shot
there’s never too much
buy more than you think you need, having enough is crucial for the shot. most companies will sell per person and they know what they’re talking about- so don’t skimp.
ORGANISE AND TIMINGS
Be sure that someone is in charge of the confetti, that the venue know you’re going to be having a confetti throw and there is time for it.
walk slow & enjoy it
my gosh, it’s so much fun! don’t rush it, stop for a kiss or a dip and enjoy it.
CAN’T HAVE PAPER CONFETTI?
Bubbles are always the best option, get bubble guns & give them to 2/3 people
Newlywed Portraits
Couple Portraits are our FAV!
But don't worry we won't ask for too long with you, although we do find most couples enjoy the time away.
We’ll usually take 20-30mins with you, and most of the time they can be done through the drinks reception (just before you get called in to take seats for food).
If the evening weather and light are pretty then we could do some in the evening too.
A lot of my couples mention feeling awkward or not comfortable in front of the camera, so you're not alone if you feel that way. However, as your personal cheerleader I'm here to make you feel comfortable and wonderful. We'll head for a little walk and just capture photos as we go, it's all super relaxed and I don't expect you to be models.
We chose to direct rather than fully pose, meaning I can capture those gorgeous natural reactions. we promise only 1 or 2 stand and smile... to keep the family happy!
You'll notice a lot of walking shots, laughing and being silly, getting intimate and expressing your love- whatever that looks like to you. When you realise we’re just a third [or 4th] wheeler and no one special you'll soon get into how we work and hopefully enjoy this part of the day too
“Steph was amazing and I would highly recommend securing her for your wedding! Me and my wife don’t love being the centre of attention or posing for photos but we felt so comfortable around Steph. Steph went above and beyond to make sure she captured every part of our day and the results are amazing. I love every single picture taken, they are all stunning. We were also amazed with how quickly she managed to get a few shots over to use the day after the wedding - I think we had 25 shots sent to us within 12 hours of her leaving the venue! We shouldn’t have been surprised though because throughout the whole process Steph was so communicative and responsive.
Thank you so much Steph for being part of our special day 💜🧡🌈”
