 I'm a Cheshire wedding photographer based in Nantwich. I capture beautiful, natural moments for couples who want to feel completely comfortable, present and themselves on their wedding day.

If the idea of being photographed feels a bit awkward, you’re not alone, almost all of my couples tell me they’re nervous about photos, don’t want anything to feel forced, or simply want to enjoy their wedding day without spending hours posing.

I’m incredibly proud to be a multiple award-winning Cheshire wedding photographer, named one of the UK’s Top Wedding Photographers for four years running. Most couples book around 18–24 months in advance, especially summer Saturdays and bank holidays, so if you think we might be the right fit, I’d love to hear all about your plans.

PRETTY, romantic Cheshire wedding photography, full of love & light 

If you're looking for a wedding photographer who feels like another friend on the day, who captures natural, flattering moments without taking over, and delivers beautiful photographs in a timeless light and airy style, you're in the right place.

I've been a full time wedding photographer for over 10 years, and all of that experience means I'm a calm, friendly presence who'll gently and confidently guide you when needed and seamlessly blend into the background when you don't.

I've photographed weddings in all kinds of different places, with just a handful or hundreds of guests, in all weather, and with all kinds of family set ups. I'm used to last minute changes, calming nerves & buttoning up dresses - I've even stepped in as a witness! 

My couples  tell me how much they loved my relaxed, unobtrusive approach, allowing them to spend more time enjoying their day while knowing all of those important moments are being captured naturally as they unfold.

Bringing a calm presence and gentle guidance to your day..

From the very first moment we met Sarah, she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She has such a calming, positive energy that makes the whole experience feel fun and natural.
On our wedding day, it truly felt like having a friend with us rather than a photographer. She blended in so effortlessly, yet somehow managed to capture every single special moment.
You can clearly tell how much Sarah loves what she does. It shows in the care and emotion she puts in, as well as her attention to detail. The beautiful way she captures genuine emotion is just amazing. Our photos are beyond anything we could have imagined, and we’ll treasure them forever.

We’re so glad we found Sarah! We loved her bright, light and airy photography style and knew she’d be perfect for our special day.  Sarah was such a calming presence at the wedding and made us feel so at ease in front of the camera - it was just like having another guest/friend with us. We were smiling from ear to ear when we received the pictures. Our day was captured so beautifully and we couldn’t be happier. 
Thank you for everything, Sarah! You’re superwoman!

Sarah was absolutely incredible! From start to finish, she was so lovely and made us feel so amazing on our wedding day. We fell in love with Sarah’s light and airy editing style and before booking the venue I had to double check she was free as we wouldn’t have wanted anyone else! We had the best day with her and wouldn’t have changed a thing.
The photos she captured are absolutely breathtaking and we love every single one. 100% recommend! 
Thank you again Sarah!

Sarah is so amazing at what she does! Not only did we get the most amazing photos from our day, but she is such a lovely presence to have around. You don’t know she is there most of the time but when you need her she is right by your side, she even ended up sorting the boys button holes out in the morning! We can’t recommend Sarah enough she really is amazing!
