Hey, I'm Laura
Taking photos has always been 'my 'thing'. When I was younger, I was always that person with a camera - taking a little digital camera on nights out, weighed down by disposable cameras on family holidays and always putting together photoshoots with my friends! People would roll their eyes and lightheartedly make fun of my constant snapping, but it was always so worth it when they saw and loved the results, and when I was able to give them mementos of their favourite moments.
Having be unable to shake the photography bug, four years ago I decided to take the plunge and begin photographing weddings! I've now worked with more than 50 incredible couples and there's nothing I love more than throwing myself into the joy and excitement of a wedding day, capturing beautiful moments for my couples to cherish forever.
I absolutely love working with people, and nothing brings me more joy than capturing people's personalities! You'll hear me shouting "perfect!" "oh this is gorgeous" and "DIVINE" many, many times whilst photographing and I mean it every single time. I always say to my couples that I want them to look at their photographs and really feel how their wedding day felt at the time. Authentic, emotive, personal and beautiful.
In terms of my life outside photography, pottering in the garden and curling up with a book are my happy places. I'm obsessed with my cats, love watching corny police dramas and am happiest when cooking a feast for the people I love most. I live in Warrington with my brilliant partner Sophie, our two mischievous tabby cats and our lovingly curated houseplant jungle.

My photography approach
Moments, not poses
No awkwardness, just beautiful moments captured effortlessly.
Present over perfect
Your day captured as it unfolds, from the nervous glances to the stolen kisses.
Come as you
are
No expectations or judgements about how a wedding 'should' be. Your day, your rules.
"Laura was super friendly and approachable and immediately felt that she had taken the time to understand us as a couple and our hopes for our wedding photography. Being relatively camera-shy people, the moments Laura captured are truly better than we could have hoped for. Thank you for helping us remember our favourite day forever!"
- Eleanor & Olivia
"Laura photographed one of the most important days of ours lives - our wedding day. Our photos were just amazing and more than we could have wished for. She was lovely to work with; so good in fact that my friend then asked Laura to do the photos for her wedding! Once again, she didn't disappoint. Memories to last a lifetime! Thank you Laura."
