Your wedding deserves to be remembered with the depth and permanence that only real film can provide. My approach is cinematic: every frame captured on 35mm for candid storytelling and medium format for iconic portraits, then hand-developed through my in-house Liquid Light Lab to preserve the tones, textures, and atmosphere of the day.

Based in Royal Leamington Spa, I offer wedding photography across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, and the West Midlands. Each roll is developed in either cinema chemistry or the historic Pyrogallol processes of the 1830s, ensuring your photographs are more than images — they become true heirlooms, carrying the emotion and narrative of your celebration with lasting depth and authenticity.

“Martin made our wedding ethereal, dreamlike and as romantic as the memories we hold.” - Jason & Melinda Stallard

On-location sessions for individuals, couples, and families, photographed on 35mm and medium format film.

Every session is carefully lit and crafted to create images with depth, texture, and timeless character. Whether it’s a personal portrait, a creative collaboration, or family photography in Leamington Spa, Warwick, Stratford-upon-Avon, or the Cotswolds, these are not disposable snapshots — they are hand-developed works of art that carry the richness of analogue film.

“Martin can make the craziest concept come to life in just minutes. He’s phenomenal.” — Mounia Moula, Actress (Wonder Woman, Inception, No Time to Die, Ghost in the Shell)

For brands, artists, and events that demand originality, film photography offers an authenticity and depth no other medium can match. I create distinctive imagery for editorials, music, theatre, and corporate events, working with analogue cameras, controlled lighting, and hand-developed negatives through my in-house Liquid Light Lab to deliver archive-quality results.

For brands and creatives, this means campaigns and promotional material with a signature look that truly stands apart. For events, it means photographs that capture not only what happened, but the atmosphere, performance, and artistry of the occasion.

I provide event photography across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, the West Midlands, and beyond into the UK as a whole, ensuring every commission carries the timeless character and professional precision of film.

“Martin’s photography for Martial Arts Illustrated magazine brought our articles to life, and I have no doubt he helped us sell more copies with his incredible visuals.” - Bob Sykes, Editor, Martial Arts Illustrated

Liquid Light Lab is a specialist service for photographers across the UK, dedicated exclusively to 35mm film development. Every roll is hand-processed in small batches, using ECN-2 cinema chemistry and historic Pyrogallol developers to preserve authentic grain, rich tones, and true depth.

Whether you’re shooting portraits, weddings, travel, or creative projects, your film is treated with the same precision and care I apply to my own photography. Scans are produced to the highest quality, ready to use for print, portfolio, or archive.

Film photographers nationwide trust Liquid Light Lab for results that are consistent, characterful, and true to the analogue process.

Post your 35mm film from anywhere in the UK and have it developed with expert attention. Your negatives deserve more than automated processing — they deserve craftsmanship.

“From the choice of camera, lenses, film, right down developing each roll himself, there is no doubt that Martin is hands-on in his craft.” - Hannah Brown, Lomography
