CAPTURING YOUR LOVE STORY

Human Connection is everything

BRISTOL WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Natural Wedding Photos & Films

For couples that value real moments

Hi, I’m Nicola

PHOTOGRAPHER | FILM MAKER

My love of people, travel and human connection has naturally led me to a nearly decade long career as wedding photographer and videographer.

I use my camera to document and tell love stories all over the world. I have visited many beautiful locations and met so many wonderful people. No wedding is too big, too small or too far.

Don’t worry This is 99% of my couples!

HERE’S MY SECRET….

Creating amazing natural wedding photos and films is all about making you relax, feel comfortable infant of a camera and most importantly letting you be yourselves. If you are having fun together, you will always bring out the best in each other, after all, that is why you have chosen to marry your partner in crime.

After many years as a Bristol wedding photographer & Videographer I know it is my job to help you forget that I am there. When creating your wedding images, I make sure the experience I provide is dedicated to the two of you. I will get you to interact, walk, talk, play little games together. Little things that will make you smile and laugh with each other, your connection will do the rest.
