Telling stories frame by frame,
Locking in your love & emotion
As a reportage wedding photographer in the Cotswolds and beyond, I collaborate with a select number of couples each year. Your celebration is so much more than a diary date – and we’ll make time to get to know each other, to connect and ultimately, to create images that truly resonate with you, together.

My passion is creating authentic, timeless images, filled with romance and light. Combining journalistic story telling with beautifully composed, fine art photos ensures you will receive magazine worthy images without impacting your time and allowing you to enjoy your day fully. This is not just a job for me, it is a passion. I adore photographing love and beauty, and thrive off the emotions, atmosphere and surroundings on a wedding day. I believe passionately in creating authentic, timeless images. I want to create a storybook of images that will stand the test of time & be poured over by your family and friends for generations.
The 2 main components of my work are storytelling and light. I am always looking for: 'moments' beautiful compositions and how the light is falling. It is a constant quest to tell your story truthfully and beautifully. I am inspired by people and nature, I love to photograph human connection and am constantly inspired by the beauty, light & colours in the natural world. Most importantly I work to create images that are timeless & beautiful in their aesthetic. No strange editing fads or awkward posing, just heartfelt, soulful images that tell your story as truthfully & beautifully as possible.
​
Together we will create heirloom images that will be passed down through the generations
Spoken from the heart
"WE WILL CHERISH THESE PHOTOS FOR A
LIFETIME."
"Oh Katrina! We love them! Thank you so much! We love how you've captured our friends and family as well as us and our venue. They're all so beautiful, we can't thank you enough. You'e given us exactly what we hoped for when we first found you on Instagram and stalked your website. In face you've given us more than we could've hoped for. You've truly captured our day as we remember it and for that we'll be forever grateful. We'll treasure these photos forever."
- Cantara & Michael
Imagine me as your shadow. I’ll be right there beside you, but discreetly out of sight.
I’ll never miss a beat and feel comfortable, familiar. I’ll soak up the energy and
essence of your wedding and be there to document the moments that make it.
