When you’re planning your wedding, one of the biggest decisions is choosing a photographer who will capture your day in a way that feels true to you. Over and over again, my couples tell me the same thing: they don’t want stiff, posed images. They want wedding photos that feel joyful, real, and full of life.

That’s where colourful and natural wedding photography comes in.


What is Colourful Wedding Photography?


Colourful wedding photography is all about celebrating the vibrancy of your day. From bright floral bouquets and bold bridesmaid dresses to confetti moments that burst with energy, colour adds a layer of storytelling that black-and-white alone can’t capture.

If you love the idea of your photos reflecting the happiness and personality of your wedding, a colourful style ensures your images feel as alive as the memories themselves.

What is Natural Wedding Photography?


Natural wedding photography is about capturing genuine moments, not forced poses. It’s about the laugh you share with your best friend, the nervous glance before walking down the aisle, or the way your grandparents hold hands during the speeches.

I take a relaxed, documentary-style approach, blending into the background so I can photograph your day as it unfolds. The result? Photos that feel honest, timeless, and uniquely you.

Why Couples Love Both Styles Together


Many of my couples in Worcestershire and the West Midlands say they don’t want to choose between the two styles – they want both. And that’s exactly what I offer:


  • The vibrancy of colour, to show off the beauty of your styling and your venue.

  • The honesty of natural moments, to capture the emotions that truly matter.


The combination means you’ll receive a gallery full of images that not only look stunning but also feel personal and authentic.


Real Weddings in Worcestershire


At venues like Whitbourne Hall, The Firs, colourful details often shine – from the stained-glass windows to the rolling countryside. Pair that with a natural, relaxed approach to photographing couples and guests, and you end up with a wedding gallery that tells the full story of the day, without missing a beat.

Final Thoughts


Your wedding photos are one of the few things that last long after the day is over. Choosing a photographer whose style reflects your personality – whether that’s colourful wedding photography, natural wedding photography, or a beautiful blend of the two – ensures your gallery will bring those memories flooding back for years to come.
