Choosing a Natural, Candid Photographer Might be the Best Decision for Your Wedding – Here's Why

 

When planning your wedding, there's a significant list of criteria that run through your mind when trying to find the right photographer to fit your day. And it should.  Because when the day is over, all you’ll be left with are your photographs. 

You’re probably looking for someone who captures the true essence of your day—the laughter, the tears, the stolen glances—and turns those fleeting moments into memories you'll love for the rest of your life. And you are NOT going to get that if you choose a photographer who can make great posed images but doesn’t know how to let things unfold and photograph them as they happen.

As the best candid wedding photographer based in South London, I believe that opting for a natural, candid approach to wedding photography might just be the best decision you can make for your big day.

Because I Capture the Real You.

Weddings are full of beautiful chaos. 

That’s probably the main reason we become wedding photographers. 

As a candid wedding photographer, I aim to capture all the obvious moments: the nervous excitement before you walk down the aisle, wearing the dreamy wedding outfits, the joyful tears, the vows, and the carefree dancing late into the night. These moments define your day, but there are also the hundred little off-beats in between those moments, just as important and perhaps even more interesting. And this is why you would choose a candid wedding photographer.

I'm passionate about photographing all the craziness, comedy, drama, and heartbeat-skipping emotions that makes your wedding special and unique. By opting for a natural photographer, you choose someone who will focus on these precious authentic moments rather than orchestrating posed shots. This approach not only helps to create a relaxed atmosphere but also makes sure that the photographs do reflect your true personalities.

The Benefits?

One of the main benefits of a natural wedding photographer is catching those moments you didn’t even notice were happening.

To achieve this I work almost entirely with natural light. Why? Because it lets the beauty of your day unfold organically. 

Imagine photos of how your partner looks at you during the wedding ceremony or the joy on your grandma’s face as she watches your first dance. These are the photos that will be most special to you and your family later on.

Trust me, these are the photos that will take you back to your wedding day every time you look at them.

Why You'll Love Having Me as Your Photographer

Being based in South London, I’ve had the privilege of photographing weddings in some of the most beautiful and unique locations. If you're choosing a South London wedding photographer, you can count on me. I don't care how big or small your celebration is. Planning a big party in a fancy hotel? Or a small, intimate ceremony at a local registry office? It doesn't matter to me. I put the same effort and passion into every wedding I photograph.

One of the aspects I cherish about wedding photography is the connection I build with my clients. I believe it’s important not only to love your photographer’s work but also to feel comfortable with them as a person. This trust allows me to capture moments that are deeply personal and meaningful.

I often say that if you’re more concerned with how many likes your wedding photos will get on Instagram rather than how much fun you’ll have on your day, then I’m probably not the right photographer for you. 

But if you want the emotional essence of your day crafted into a beautiful visual story, I’d be honoured to photograph your wedding.
