You’re looking for Candid & Unposed Documentary Wedding Photography in Shropshire. You’ve put real thought into the details, from the flowers to the playlist, and you want photographs that do them justice without turning the day into a photoshoot.

You want to remember exactly how your day felt. It’s important to you that your guests have the best time, and that those authentic moments are captured with total honesty—real smiles, real laughter, and real emotion.

You may be a little camera shy, and that is completely okay. I believe beauty is found in the “in-between” moments when you’re given the space to be yourself—no pressure, no awkward posing, and no drama.

My approach focuses on the quiet glances, the nuzzles, and the handholds. You want to look back and feel it all: the joy, the nerves, and the connection. I provide natural wedding storytelling with no frills and no fuss—just beautiful photographs that tell your story exactly as it is.

CLIENTS ARE SAYIN’

  • “It was such a joy to have Charlotte photograph our wedding! The images we received are absolutely beautiful and have really captured the essence of the day so well. We got the perfect mix of candid relaxed photos and beautiful portrait shots. Leading up to the day Charlotte checked in regularly and accepted our request for some specific shots, making us feel at ease and also helping us to work out our timings and logistics to get our first look. On the day she blended in so well – so many of our guests commented on how great it was that she wasn’t intrusive at all, just discreetly capturing all the special moments and our favourite people. It was also a real bonus that Charlotte offered an hourly rate so we could have a reduced session due to budget. I’ve already recommended Charlotte to a friend getting married next year

  • “Charlotte was absolutely perfect, from start to finish she was part of the wedding not just taking our photos. All our guest said how amazing she was, we aren’t big on posed photos and we still have come out with the most beautiful shots any family could have wished for. The day wouldn’t have been the same without her. Her energy and professionalism just added to a beautiful day for us. “

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

If pushed, I’d describe myself as a creative, documentary, wedding photographer.  I’d much rather capture your day naturally, as it unfolds, rather than presenting everything in an overly posed way.
I love movement, storytelling, and all the little details that make up your day. I see photos as little nudges for your memory, to remind you of what you saw and how you felt.  
If I had to choose then I’d go for emotion over perfection every. single. time.
While I shoot most of the day in an unobtrusive, documentary style,  I also love to work with the two of you to create some gorgeous portraits.  I still aim for these to be authentic rather than posed.   I’ll scout out a backdrop that I think looks good and get the two of you to interact in front of it. Nothing cringe-worthy –  I promise!
I also understand that there are more traditional parts of the day that need capturing in a simple, timeless manner. I always include the “mum shot”  a straight to camera, smiley portrait and I always get a mixture of group shots. Some with everyone lined up and smiling at the camera and some with more interaction.

Again, this one is really up to you.  I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE taking portraits, but I also believe that your wedding is not a photo shoot.  You’ve spent a huge amount of time (and money) on your day and I wholeheartedly believe that you should be able to enjoy every single moment of it.
With this in mind, I generally recommend taking 15 minutes, for portraits, as your guests are busy being seated for their meals, and 10 minutes as the sun starts to set. 
If you want to do any more or less than this, that’s cool too. 

Not at all! In fact, my unposed documentary wedding photography is specifically designed for people who feel uncomfortable in front of the lens. Because I don’t “direct” you or ask you to look at the camera, that “watched” feeling disappears. I focus on your interactions with each other and your guests, capturing you at your most natural and relaxed.

Nobody wants any awkward waiting around and wasted wedding time.  Three months before your wedding I’ll start requesting info and walking you through any important info helping to create  a pre-planned list for family groupings. On the day, I keep anyone on the list back after the confetti and/or group shot (no hunting around for aunties gone rogue) so I can whizz through them quickly and painlessly. 

As someone who is incredibly awkward in front of the camera, I’m totally with you on this and I’ve got your  back!
It’s always my aim to get you interacting so that your attention is firmly on each other and not me, or the  camera. 
Once I have your photos I’m ruthless with the editing and I promise no unflattering ones will ever see the light of day! I’ll even give you control over your gallery, so if there are any you don’t like you can remove them before sharing with friends and family. 

Coverage is simple: £250 an hour, for anywhere from 2 to 10 hours, booked as one continuous block.
