Hi, I'm Liam.

I believe the best wedding photographs happen when you're completely immersed in your day—not when you're constantly being asked to look at the camera.

My approach is quiet, observant and documentary, creating timeless photographs while you simply enjoy being with the people you love.

‘Liam is an incredible film documentary photographer and I would highly recommend him to anyone who’s looking for authentic, candid and truly heartfelt images. We adored the photographs he took of our wedding which were unplanned, unscripted and authentic to who we are.
He captures timeless moments through film and we’re grateful to have these images forever’

FAQ’s

Do you only photograph weddings in Leicestershire?

Not at all. I'm based in Melton Mowbray and regularly photograph weddings throughout Rutland, Nottinghamshire, Lincolnshire and across the UK.

What is documentary wedding photography?

It means capturing real moments as they naturally happen rather than constantly directing them. I'll gently guide you during portraits but the majority of your day is photographed quietly and unobtrusively.

Is 35mm film worth adding?

If you love the nostalgic character of analogue photography then absolutely! Film brings a softness and authenticity that's difficult to replicate digitally and blends beautifully with your digital gallery.
