For wildly wonderful weddings, intimate elopements and everything in between.

For wildly wonderful weddings, intimate elopements and everything in between.

Based in Cornwall and photographing weddings across the South West, we’re inspired by wild coastlines, beautiful beaches, rolling countryside and that incredible Cornish light. But more than anything, we’re inspired by people — the laughter, the nerves, the happy tears and all those little moments you didn’t even realise were happening.

​

Our approach is simple: enjoy your wedding day your way.

Nothing stiff. Nothing cheesy. No endless posing. Just relaxed, natural photography that captures your day as it really felt — with a little creative magic thrown in along the way.

 

​

​

With over 15 years and 800+ weddings behind us, we know when to step in and when to disappear into the background. We’ll help when you need us, whether that’s holding your dress, removing a forgotten price tag, calming the nerves or rounding everyone up for the one family photo Nan really wants.

And while you’re busy getting married, laughing, drinking champagne and having the time of your lives, we’ll be watching for everything else.

The squeeze of a hand. A look across the room. Your best friend crying during the ceremony. The chaos on the dance floor. The wind in your veil on a Cornish cliff top. The tiny, fleeting moments that become some of your favourite photographs.

​

Because wedding photography isn’t about turning your day into a photoshoot. It’s about giving you the freedom to live it.

Your people. Your story. Your wildly wonderful day — captured exactly as it felt.

Absolutely amazing!

From start to finish, booking Charlotte to our actual wedding day, everything was so easy. Charlotte is a really good communicator and really understands how stressful wedding planning can be. She put my mind to rest at all times and anytime i needed a question answering she did not take long to respond. Charlottes photography skills are superior to any i have seen. Her style is very elegant and she covered every angle/suggestion that i requested. We receieved a few sneak peak photos within a couple days of the wedding which was lovely to take away with us on honeymoon. To our surprise we then receieved the entire album within 3 weeks of the wedding day. This was super fast and really impressed us. The photos we receieved are fantastic quality and so beautifully taken by Charlotte. I would 100% recommend Charlotte to any bride looking for that wow factor. Charlotte is also a very special person and so welcome at our wedding with her beautiful personality. Thank you Charlotte for making our day and future memories so special
