I’m a street photographer who shoots weddings as they really are

You’re not looking for posed smiles or cheesy clichés. You want photography that captures your day—warts, wonder ’n’ all—as it actually unfolds. That’s what I do: award-winning street technique meets genuine, candid wedding photography. Authentic and unique to you and your day. It’s low-key and relaxed so you can simply get on with celebrating your day as you should – with friends and family.

It’s like street photography, but with confetti.

100% no cheese. No clichés. And definitely no bullshit. There’s not lots of different wedding packages to bamboozle you. No upselling after your wedding day. It’s simple, straight-forward and without all the usual wedding industry blah blah blah!

There’s just one wedding fee for as long as you want me for on your day. There’s no set amount of photos you’ll receive, as each and every wedding is different. You’ll simply get all the good ones.

My fee is £950.00. Travel expenses would apply for any wedding more than 50 miles from the BS23 postcode.

“OMG Darren!! We’ve just relived our wedding day!! You’ve done amazing work, we loved all of them! They really tell a story. What a day. We’re in tears. Thank You…we’re so glad we found you.”

(Pauline & Dale)
