Wedding Photography on Film in Warwickshire, the Cotswolds & the West Midlands

Your wedding deserves to be remembered with the timeless depth of analogue film photography. From grand celebrations to intimate elopements, I provide wedding photography on film across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, and the West Midlands, using both 35mm and medium-format cameras to capture each moment with honesty and artistry. Every frame is hand-developed through our in house Liquid Light Lab, ensuring your images carry natural tones, cinematic atmosphere, and the character only film can provide.

What matters most, however, is not just the photographs but the people within them. I take time to understand your story — the connections, family traditions, and details that make your day unique. My approach is quiet and observant, allowing your wedding to unfold naturally while ensuring that the moments that matter most are never overlooked. From the exchange of vows to the laughter of friends and the small gestures of family, I treat each with equal care.

When you revisit your photographs, they will not only show how your wedding looked but carry the emotion of how it felt — a narrative of your day told on real film, crafted with respect for both the medium and the meaning behind every frame.

Dedicated wedding film photographer in Warwickshire, Cotswolds and West Midlands
  • Yes — I work exclusively with real film for all weddings. Using both 35mm and medium format cameras, I create images with the depth, tone, and timeless quality that define analogue photography. Every frame is hand-developed through my in-house Liquid Light Lab, ensuring your photographs are cared for from exposure to final delivery.

    I’m also very comfortable working alongside digital photographers. While digital offers speed and broad coverage, film brings a distinctive atmosphere and permanence that can’t be achieved any other way. Many couples choose to have both, knowing that their film photographs will stand apart as lasting, crafted works of art.

  • Absolutely. I always take time to understand your story, your families, and what matters most to you. That way, I can capture not just the big moments but the personal details and connections that make your day unique.

  • Every wedding is different, so I don’t limit couples to rigid packages. Some prefer coverage of the full day, from morning preparations through to the evening, while others want a more focused approach for an intimate ceremony or elopement. We’ll discuss what matters most to you, then shape the right level of coverage, film formats, and delivery so your photographs feel personal and complete.

  • Quietly and attentively. My style is unobtrusive — I let the day unfold naturally while ensuring the laughter, glances, embraces, and emotions are all preserved on film. You’ll be free to focus on your celebration while knowing nothing meaningful is overlooked.

  • Film brings an atmosphere and authenticity that elevates wedding memories. Soft highlight roll-off, true-to-life skin tones, and a tangible sense of depth give your images a lasting quality. Many couples say the photographs feel exactly like the day itself.

  • I’m based in Royal Leamington Spa and regularly photograph weddings across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, and the West Midlands. I also travel further afield by arrangement.

  • After your negatives are developed and scanned, you’ll receive a private online gallery where you can view, download, and share your wedding photographs. Prints and albums are also available on request.

  • Because every wedding I photograph is personal. Whether it’s a large celebration or an intimate elopement, I treat it with the same dedication I’ve given to documenting actors, musicians, and families alike. Your photographs will be handled with discipline, care, and respect — both on the day and in the lab.

Portrait Photography on Film in Warwickshire, the Cotswolds & the West Midlands

A portrait should be more than just a likeness — it should feel alive. I create portrait photography on film across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, and the West Midlands, using 35mm and medium format cameras to capture people with depth, character, and authenticity. Every session is developed by hand through my in-house Liquid Light Lab, ensuring that your photographs are crafted with the same attention to detail I bring to my own work.

You don’t need to be a celebrity or public figure to experience portraits at this level. My role is to bring the same standards I’ve used when photographing actors, musicians, and directors into sessions for families, professionals, and individuals who simply want to be seen as they are. Whether it’s a timeless personal portrait, a creative commission, or an image that captures your family at a particular moment in life, each session is shaped to reflect you.

Film’s natural tones, grain, and depth add an atmosphere digital images can’t imitate. Combined with my patient, observant approach, the result is portraiture that feels cinematic yet deeply personal — photographs you’ll return to for decades.

  • Yes — every portrait session is photographed on real film, using 35mm and medium format cameras. This gives your images timeless character, beautiful tonality, and an atmosphere that feels both authentic and enduring.

  • I work with individuals, families, professionals, and artists. Whether you’d like a single timeless portrait, a creative editorial-style shoot, or a set of family images, each session is tailored to you.

  • Every portrait session is tailored rather than fixed into rigid packages. Some clients want a single timeless portrait, others prefer a fuller series of images across different looks or settings. I’ll discuss your thoughts with you in advance, then recommend the right approach in terms of time, film formats, and delivery. This ensures you receive photographs that feel personal, crafted, and exactly suited to your vision.

  • Relaxed and natural. I give people the space to be themselves and never rush the process. Many clients say the slower pace of working with film makes the session more enjoyable and meaningful.

  • All negatives are hand-processed in small batches through my in-house Liquid Light Lab, using cinema and Pyrogallol chemistry to bring out the best in your images. This means every frame is handled with the same care I give to my own, personal work.

For brands, artists, and events that demand originality, I provide editorial and event photography on 35mm, medium format and 4x5 large format film — delivering imagery with authenticity, atmosphere, and depth. From live music and theatre to corporate launches and brand campaigns, I use analogue cameras, professional lighting, and hand-developed negatives through my in-house Liquid Light Lab to create results that are both distinctive and archive-quality.

  • Yes. Every commission — whether a live performance, editorial project, or corporate event — is photographed on 35mm film. The negatives are then hand-developed in small batches through my in-house Liquid Light Lab, ensuring your imagery has depth, tone, and the distinctive character of analogue photography.

  • I balance unobtrusive documentation with decisive, creative framing. For live events, I capture both the atmosphere and the key moments. For editorials or brand campaigns, I work closely with you to create imagery that reflects your identity while carrying the timeless qualities of film.

  • For the event itself, I work in a documentary style — moving unobtrusively and using the existing light of the venue. With fast lenses and careful film stock choices, I can capture the atmosphere exactly as it feels, whether that’s stage lighting, theatre, or the mood of a corporate space.

    If the event also requires portraits of guests, performers, or teams, I bring professional lighting for those moments. This ensures controlled, flattering results while keeping the rest of the coverage authentic to the live environment.

  • Yes — and in fact, the combination often works beautifully. A digital photographer can provide fast, high-volume coverage, while my work on film focuses on creating cinematic, carefully crafted images. Together, this gives the event a rounded presentation afterwards: the immediacy of digital alongside the atmosphere, depth, and timeless quality of film.

  • Turnaround times vary with the size of the event, but typically you’ll receive your fully developed and scanned film images within 2–3 weeks. Each project is processed through my own Liquid Light Lab, so I control every stage from exposure to delivery.

  • Every event is unique, so packages are flexible. Some clients need a few hours of coverage, while others commission a full day across multiple locations. We’ll discuss your requirements in advance and tailor coverage, film stock, and delivery to suit your project.

  • All event and editorial photography includes clear usage rights, agreed before the shoot. Brands and corporate clients receive licensing for campaigns, websites, and social media, while artists and performers can use their images for promotion, press, or personal archive.

  • I’m based in Royal Leamington Spa and work UK-wide for events. I regularly cover events across Warwickshire, the Cotswolds, and the West Midlands.
