Wedding Photographer Journal
This journal of my photography showcases a selection of images that I have produced from wedding commissions in Cardiff, South Wales and throughout the UK. This endeavour is to demonstrate a consistency of quality, style and the affectional properties a picture essay possess when telling an authentic and heartwarming story. The weddings are shown in chronological order, though through the buttons below you can view weddings via area or via some of the more popular venues that I have photographed.
