As a wedding photographer here in South Wales, it’s always a pleasure to shoot at new locations. I was initially at Bello Capelli in Swansea for the first time, and also working with the Beauty Boutique. The staff here are fab, so friendly and accomodating. And the results the brides hair just says it all. Read More
Natalie and Paul were due to get married soon, so we headed out on location for an engagement photography session at Oxwich Bay. With the summer we’ve been having here in the UK, it was rude not to go down the beach for some photography! Read More
Last year, I had the pleasure of covering a wedding for a fellow photographer, for personal reasons, they were unable to photograph the wedding on this day. This is the reason why you should hire a professional photographer, we are within a group we organised ourselves, where we only allow the best wedding photographers in South Wales in, but not just the best, you need to be trustworthy, enjoy banter and a good laugh too!

I had a meeting with Hayley and Adam at Craig Y Nos Castle, they’re due to get married later on this year. But seeing as it was a sunny day, and I was also on my 365 challenge (take a photo a day for the rest of the year – but with a mobile phone), I thought I’d get some portraits of these guys whilst I was here at Craig Y Nos Castle with them.

I, and many of my fellow professional wedding photographers got tagged in a Facebook post yesterday. Someone had their wedding photographer cancelled on them! 🙁 Read More
A huge congratulations to Joanne and Simon on their beautiful winter wedding at the Craig Y Nos Castle in Brecon, South Wales. With the recent weather warnings of snow, leading up to the big day, parts of the country were snowed in! For me, it was having that horrible feeling of whether I could make it to the wedding or not. Luckily, on the morning, the snow had died down, and the rain had melted a lot of the snow, so I was able to travel up! If that wasn’t the case, I would have hiked up if I had to!
Massive congratulations to Rian and Adam’s beautiful wedding at the Oxwich Bay Hotel yesterday! My first wedding of 2018, and what an amazing one it was to start with. You may remember seeing their engagement photos at Bracelet Bay in Mumbles, Swansea, I posted a selection on my facebook page.
Early December, on my way to Craig Y Nos Castle, and it was snowing! It snow’s rarely enough here in South Wales, but to be snowing on a wedding that I’m photographing! Amazing! I was so looking forward to getting photographs on the newlyweds in the snow! Read More

As a South Wales wedding photographer it was a pleasure to be documenting Kelly and Rich’s wedding at the Oxwich Bay Hotel at the Gower in South Wales.
Kelly and Rich decided to get married on 31st October, on Halloween, I was prepared to dress up haha, but they opted not to have fancy dress at their wedding. But they did have some fantastic pumpkin cetrepieces, so glittery, I had to use one to get a photo of the wedding rings!
Missed the first part of Jodie and Gareth’s wedding at Fairyhill, Swansea? No worries, just read the second part of this South Wales Wedding in Fairyhill instead! This is my second time shooting a two day wedding, the last time was an Asian Wedding in Cardiff. All I need now, is a three day wedding – get in touch guys! haha. Read More
As a wedding photographer in South Wales, I have to travel around to document weddings, but today, I was at my home town Llanelli, just minutes away photographing our beautiful bride-to-be Jodie at Bella Compelli in West End. It was just Jodie and her son Jack, so it a nice calm morning. Read More
So this was the most unexpected wedding I’ve photographed! A fellow photographer who was unable to photograph the wedding due to unforeseen circumstances asked if I was able to photograph a wedding that day. It was a good thing I was up at 8.30am that morning, totally not like me when I didn’t have to work! Read More
As a wedding photographer, you really have to be creative and think on the spot, sometimes, there are just minutes to come up with a photograph, and in the more unflattering locations. Here are a few example photos I’ve taken at weddings that shows how much difference hiring a professional wedding photographer for our wedding day makes! Read More
It’s another South Wales wedding for me today, this time, it was in a Llansamlet in Swansea. A lovely intimate wedding in St Samlet Church, but first, it was a few drinks at the Plough and Harrow with the boys. The best man is a friend of mine, so it was easy to get everyone relaxed in front of the camera quickly. After a drink ot two, and a few group photos, it was time for the church. Read More
It’s been a whilst since I’ve documented a wedding here at Craig Y Nos Castle, so it was an absolute pleasure to photograph Sarann and Paul’s wedding here at this gorgeous and historic castle. Read More
