Wedding Photographer Cardiff, South Wales

A More Natural Approach To Wedding Photography

Hello I’m Sacha, an award-winning documentary wedding photographer based in Cardiff, South Wales, with over 20 years of experience capturing unforgettable wedding moments across the UK and internationally.

A specialist in creating candid, natural, and emotive photography. My unobtrusive and relaxed approach ensures that you actually have time to enjoy your day. It is not often you get all your friends and family together, and wedding days move pretty fast so it is best to squeeze out as much fun and laughter as possible. Whilst you are enjoying yourselves, I shall produce a stunningly beautiful pictorial record, with the understated timeless elegance of reportage photography.

Natural approach to ensure that you actually get time to enjoy your wedding day.

At your request, I am happy to arrange a few group photographs of close family and friends and a few portraits of just the two of you to utilise the surroundings, but these are at your discretion. They do not need to take up too much time, allowing you to enjoy the company of your guests for the vast majority of the day.

“His photography highlights the intimate moments unseen by many, whilst exhibiting the balance of composition capable of only a true master.”

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY REVIEWS

I’m truly fortunate to work with such wonderful couples who trust me to photograph their special day. I deeply value this trust and approach each wedding with the utmost care and dedication, always striving to create a beautiful, lasting record of their celebration. Here are some kind words from a few of my happy couples.

“Would 100% Recommend. Sacha was completely brilliant from the initial conversation through to the day itself. He was great at listening to what we wanted and we couldn’t have been happier with the results. The photos were phenomenal, capturing all of the days moments. We were able to completely relive the day looking though all the photos. Great with communication and so easy to deal with on the day. Absolutely fantastic service!”

“Sacha was fantastic! I was very specific in wanting to capture the narrative of the day and that I wanted atmosphere over posed photographs. I have a background in Fine Art and Sacha was the only wedding photographer I liked, so I was very happy that he was able to do our wedding. He even ran into the sea with us for some quirky shots in the wind and rain! He never complained despite getting soaked and the photos captured such a beautiful vibe of the day. I would highly recommend him.”

“Sacha was great in the lead up the wedding; listening and understanding what we wanted from the day as well as working with us to accommodate the different locations of the bridal party and ensuring photos were taken in all. On the day you hardly knew Sacha was there but the photos showed he was everywhere!! He was so discreet but captured some wonderful moments throughout the day. We are so happy and proud of the photos.”
