Hello There!

Creative, relaxed & authentic Norfolk Wedding Photographer for couples who want to be themselves

Your Day. Your Story.

Hi, I’m Tim – a creative Norfolk wedding photographer based just outside the beautiful city of Norwich, Norfolk. I photograph weddings across the East of England including of course Norfolk, Suffolk, Essex,  Cambridgeshire and am always happy to travel further afield. 

I love watching people – observing, capturing (photos!) and helping create memories crammed full with genuinely authentic moments for you to treasure forever.

My approach to your wedding day is all about photographing your unique day as it actually happens…

Weddings are wonderfully unique celebrations, bringing together your closest family and friends to celebrate your big day. 

I set out to capture beautifully authentic, heartfelt and storytelling photographs which when interwoven together tell the story of your very own wedding day.  

With no need for tired, awkward and staged posing, every single one of your photographs will be as unique as you are – all helping in their own special way to relive every moment of the big day!

Your Wedding Story

Your wedding day is yours alone and your photos should tell the story of your day, however that unfolds.

It's all about the magic, love, emotion, tiny details, fabulous dance floor party moves and those importantly formal bits too. Let's capture it all!

No Awkward Posing?

Nope! Never... Nada...

Unposed Wedding Photography

If there’s one thing that will always stand out from my own wedding day, it’s the idea of being posed. 

All I remember from being photographed for my own wedding photos is the awkwardness of someone waving a camera around while attempting to direct us to stand in a certain way; arranging every aspect of the image from where we were stood, to how our hands were positioned. 

The end result is well, let’s just say that we don’t have a single one of those photos on our walls. 

All the “poses” in our own wedding photos are identical to every other wedding our photographer has photographed – all the way up to weddings photographed recently.   It’s quite surreal looking back at the gallery and matching up the poses but that’s another story. 

This ethos has stayed with me ever since – so the absolute last thing I can guarantee to do on your wedding day is ask you to pose.

How did I get into shooting weddings?

My Story

My adventure as Norfolk based wedding photographer began somewhere around 2007 or 2008 when one of our family friends announced they were getting married. Like many new wedding photographers, I was nearby with a camera in my hand and volunteered to snap a few photos.  

Fortunately everything went OK, the couple loved their photos and soon after then more and more people kept asking me to photograph their own celebrations… Over the intervening years I steadily worked my way through all our friends and extended family who were tying the knot & haven’t looked back!

I’ve always had a passion for photography right from an early age when I was lucky enough to be able to experiment with developing my own black & white film & prints many moons ago back in school. 

Building on that, the idea and excitement of being able to dedicate time to photographing people on one of the most exciting and fabulous days of their lives ignited a whole new passion.

Every single wedding is different and I absolutely thrive on the uniqueness. Of course, we go into the day with a few plans, timeline and idea of when the important things will happen – but none of us actually know for sure how the day’s going to unfold once it gets going.. what the weather’s going to do or what photos we’ll create together… and that’s just magic! 

It’s what always pushes me to document the reality. The genuine, authentic moments that make the day are yours and yours alone – and I’ll use them to create the best possible story of your day; whatever direction they go in.

Fran & Rob

We cannot THANK YOU enough for the most AMAZING Wedding Pictures – we honestly love them and so do all of our guests!

From start to finish, working with you was such a breeze, we felt like we already knew you by our wedding! You really put us at ease throughout & half the time we didn’t even know you were there – no offence!! 
We are SO grateful you moved our date for us so that we could have the wedding of our dreams! It really was PERFECT.

Wedding photography for couples who want to be themselves

It's Simple

Honestly, it is. 

Let’s take away the need to pose, or worry about how you’re standing, where your hands are or whether you’re following the instructions.

Instead, you two incredibly special people get to be yourselves and spend some precious time together on your wedding day.  You relax, you’re in the moment, you’re deeply in love and you’re having fun. 

Together, we’ll laugh, explore your beautiful venue, seek out the light and most importantly we’ll create something special. 

I'd love to chat

Next Steps

To have the best wedding photographs from your big day,  I believe that it’s really important to connect with your photographer. We’ll spend a lot of time together on the day and I’d like nothing more than to start getting to know you both & having a chat about your plans. 

If you like what you’ve seen so far and would like to hear more, please head on over to my Contact page and send me a few details about your plans so far. I’ll then check the diary as I can only take on a limited number of weddings each year and will get back to you as soon as I can.
