COLCHESTER BASED WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER, COVERING ESSEX, SUFFOLK, NORFOLK, KENT & ALL OF THE UK.. AND WORLDWIDE!
FUN, AUTHENTIC & RELAXED WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
RAW, UN-STAGED, AUTHENTIC MOMENTS. THIS IS WHAT I LIVE FOR. IT'S A WEDDING DAY, NOT A PHOTOSHOOT!
REAL WEDDINGS, REAL PEOPLE,
REAL MOMENTS.
No staged smiles, no boring couples shoots & no cheesy posing. Your wedding day is your wedding day. Not a photoshoot. I want you to remember how amazing your wedding day was, not how long your photographer took you for photos!
I want you to be completely relaxed, enjoying your day while I quietly document everything as it unfolds. My goal is to capture real emotions, laughter and all the little moments that make your wedding unique. You can’t stage your dad crying, your uncle pulling out the worm on the dance floor, or your friends carrying the grooms man on their shoulders on the dance floor! These moments just happen, and my job is to be ready for them. That’s why my approach is entirely natural, so your photos feel effortless and feel like ‘you’.
“Luke is a lovely guy, great energy but relaxed at the same time! He was
one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. He kept us relaxed, gave great direction without making anything feel posed, and captured so many natural, in-between moments that we’ll treasure forever. The sunset shots were unreal. He also worked seamlessly with our videographer, which made the whole day feel smooth and stress free. Luke’s creative too and also looks for the opportunity to capture some fun shots- which added a fun touch to our wedding!
Thank you Luke for capturing all our special moments 10/10! Can 100% recommend!”

When it comes to your wedding photographer, you aren’t just paying for ‘nice photos’ – Instagram is full of nice instagram feeds these days, but it’s not just aesthetics. There’s LOADS of photographers out there that have a large majority of their instagram feeds/website from content days & set up workshops etc. (no pressure, no time constraints, models, perfect setups).
A nice instagram grid or website doesn’t tell you if they can handle chaos, keep you from shitting your pants before you go down the aisle, doesn’t tell you if they can read a room, move portraits later in the timeline as you booked a live singer for the reception and you actually want to listen to them. That stuff doesn’t live on pretty feeds – It lives in experience.
The real risk isn’t just bad photos, it’s a bad fit. Feeling awkward, being dragged around, missing the good bits because someone was too busy staging ‘the perfect shot’. So here’s the meat and bones of it: don’t ask yourself ‘do we like their photos?’ – instead ask yourself ‘do we trust this person to show up on the day and smash it out the park’ (read my reviews).
Once you realise that, you stop scrolling for the prettiest grid and start looking for the person, the vibe, the energy you want to spend your entire day with, someone who will sing along to the fresh prince of bel air during bride prep, someone who will knock out some body popping on the dance floor before capturing the bridesmaid whacking out the perfect worm – and if that ends up being me – happy bloody days!!

Luke was absolutely fantastic! He tailored his approach perfectly to what we needed and made everyone feel completely at ease. He captured all the candid moments beautifully, while also organising the more structured group shots effortlessly and inclusively. We had so many guests comment on how professional, engaging, and friendly he was throughout the day.
We couldn’t be happier with the results and the experience—highly recommend Luke to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. Thank you so much, Luke!
