I’m delighted to share Emma & Ben’s wedding story with you—a sporty couple from Oxford whose wedding day perfectly reflected their personalities and love for each other.

It was a bright, sunny day in Oxford when Emma and Ben tied the knot in a cosy ceremony at St Hilda’s College, surrounded by their closest friends and family. The day was filled with warmth and genuine happiness. Later, adding a fun Oxford twist, everyone enjoyed a punting trip on the river right next to the venue, complete with champagne and strawberries—a hit with all the guests!

As a photographer, I focus on capturing those natural, spontaneous moments that really tell the story of a wedding. I believe wedding photography is all about preserving these memories in a way that feels true to the couple. I specialise in helping couples who want to relax and truly enjoy their day, ensuring we capture all those fleeting, joyous moments.

Being part of Emma and Ben’s special day was such an honour, and I’m thankful for the chance to help them hold onto those memories.

If you’re planning a laid-back wedding in Oxfordshire and are looking for a photographer who can capture the real, joyful essence of your day, I’d love to chat with you about your plans.
