This collection is ideal for full-day weddings, covering everything from the morning preparations through to approximately half an hour after the first dance — ensuring the key moments and atmosphere of your celebration are beautifully documented.

Prior to the wedding, we’ll have a pre-wedding consultation to discuss your plans, timeline and priorities. Around one month before your wedding, I will also send you a detailed questionnaire to gather final information, important moments, family groupings and any specific requests, so nothing meaningful is overlooked.

On the day itself, I will personally photograph your wedding for up to 10 hours, working in a calm and unobtrusive manner to capture natural moments, genuine emotions and the finer details as they unfold.

Complimentary drone photography is included where weather conditions, venue and location permissions allow, offering a beautiful aerial perspective of your venue and surroundings.

After the wedding, I carefully edit and refine at least 500 images in my signature style. Your photographs will be delivered via a private online gallery for easy viewing and sharing.

As a passionate wedding photographer with 12 years of experience, I am dedicated to capturing your love story in its most authentic, beautiful form.

My approach is a blend of documentary-style storytelling and natural portraiture. I pride myself on creating a stress-free, enjoyable experience on your big day.

I mix storytelling along with elegance and refined contemporary photography with a hint of the daringly unusual,
This plan will provide up to 10 hours modern informal wedding coverage, from bridal prep until party shots late into the evening.
Images are optimised with approximately 750+ naturally enhanced digital images for both you and your guests to download and enjoy.
The majority of images are in colour and carefully toned black and white, set within a secure Swiss designed online protected gallery for your pleasure.

Consultation and ideas strategy before wedding day.

I'm an multi award winning wedding photographer (L.M.P.A, L.B.I.P.P, L.S.W.P.P, L.R.P.S, 7 further awards from Master Photographers Association, Qualified with Elite wedding photographers and recognised as one one the top 100 photographers in the United Kingdom).  When you book me you are investing in a professional who genuinely cares and is committed & passionate about your day.

I want to give my clients something creative throughout the ebb and flow of your wonderful day.
For the most part I am in the background telling the story of the day through the lens, at times to get the best for my clients I might suggest certain things which may enhance the image, formal family or contemporary lifestyle couple shots.

I used to be a commercial fashion and advertising photographer up until the early 90's but decided to plough headlong into wedding capture, in truth I wanted to make a creative difference. Wedding photography at that time was super formal and static. It didn't show personality, creativity or emotion just endless groups of people and lots of soft focus!
Due to my editorial magazine and advertising background my style from the beginning was free flowing, informal and fresh lifestyle,
in direct contrast to my competitors.
Today I really work fluidly in most parts of the UK to achieve the very best story telling images for my clients, I want them to have something exciting, special and often unique, be it documentary, informal, lifestyle or quirky.

In a career of 30 or so years I have shot well over 1000 weddings now spread over four countries, attended ceremonies from the Ritz to the Savoy, beautiful castles from Leeds to Hever and stunning hotels from Eastwell Manor to Claridges.

I'm truly passionate about my work and the style and ideas that go into each image that I take. I'm relaxed, approachable and patient with a certain amount of quirky humour : ) (important qualities if you want to get the best out of people)

At the end of the day your wedding is all about you. Your family, friends and relatives are there to celebrate with you. Be your true self with all your fun personality. Do things that make you happy and embrace the new day, I will be there to record those moments and so much more.

Hi, I'm Gabriel and I'm a friendly and relaxed photographer based in Amersham, Buckinghamshire.
I approach the day in a very relaxed manner and I do my very best not to bring extra stress to the day, if anything I alleviate it with my experience in making sure the buttoniers are done correctly, a making sure the girls are holding the flowers at the right height or even just making sure that the couple doesn't take the day too seriously and stress more than they should.
On the day I do my job without intervening too much unless I really have to.
I like to think that most people end up liking me by the end of the day and I always try to leave a nice impression.
If this is something you'd like to have at your wedding, don't hesitate to send me a message

I’ve always believed that the most beautiful moments in life aren’t staged – they’re felt. The quiet breath before you say “I do.” The way your hands find each other in a crowd. The laughter, the tears, the tiny glances that say everything without a word.

That’s what I love to capture.
Not just how your wedding day looks, but how it feels.

As your photographer, I’ll be more than someone behind the camera – Whether your day enfolds in an intimate setting or a grand Palace. I want you to feel completely at ease, free to be yourselves, knowing that I’m there to preserve every honest, joyful, once-in-a-lifetime moment.

Every Asian wedding is different, and that’s what makes this work so special to me. Whether your day unfolds in a quiet backyard or across the world, I’ll be there – documenting your story with care, heart, and intention.

I’m an award-winning photographer, with over 15 years of experience shooting beautiful weddings. Each time I feel honoured to be entrusted to capture the unique moments that occur between family and friends on such a special day.

I strive to preserve those moments in time and bring wonderful, treasured memories flooding back every time you pick up your wedding album.

I hope you enjoy looking through a small sample of my work and I look forward to discussing your wedding plans if you choose to work with me.

Best wishes for your big day,
Roge

“Adam is a confident and relaxed photographer, making us feel at ease from the moment we met him. He was very discreet throughout our wedding day and got some fantastic candid shots of the guests. He made everyone feel comfortable having their photos taken, and made the portraits run very smoothly and to time. We had every confidence in him, and the photo results prove that he knows exactly what he is doing! We would highly recommend Adam to everyone we know. Thank you ever so much for capturing our special day for us.”
Louise & James

“We would just like to thank dearly Adam for being our wedding photographer for our special day. 
Our wedding was set in a garden marquee in August with perfect weather.
From the start, Adam was greatly enthusiastic with his contact and his portfolio amazed us ! We felt he could capture the memorable moments that we would look back on in the years to come.
Even prior to the wedding, we were able to make changes to the arrangements which meant a lot to us and his suggestions were very helpful with planning the right shots for us.
All our guests were very happy on the day with the style of photography and he made everyone feel comfortable. 
Adam even managed to get the most reluctant of our wedding guests to smile for the camera (including my uncle !)
All in all, it was an pleasure to work with such a great professional and we look forward to using his services again in the near future.”
Emma & Rob

“Adam is a lovely guy, and an incredible photographer. On our wedding day, he captured all the great moments by always being in the right place at the right time. In the group photos he was efficient in arranging and placing everyone, and in the bride and groom shots, he captured all the special moments between us. After the wedding, he was very quick to get back to us with the pictures, which are stunning! Thank you, Adam!”
Aiysha & Robin

“When it came to booking a photographer for our countryside wedding, we wanted someone who would capture the relaxed, unique theme, but also produce the wonderful wedding shots that we secretly love! Adam was our standout favourite after looking trough his portfolio, and we could not have asked for a more perfect photographer on the day of the wedding. He was alert to every tiny nuance on the day, pouncing on the perfect shots, bending over backwards to meet our last minute requests and helping make our day last a lifetime. We can’t thank Adam enough for the wonderful photos, and would recommend him to anyone! (Book him right now!!)”
Sara & Kris

“Having Adam doing our Wedding photos was great, not only because his pictures are so beautiful but because he has such a non intrusive presence. He captures the best candid moments and takes great group shots. All my friends and family got on really well with him. It was a pleasure to have him at our wedding.”
Deanna & Paul

“Adam is a fantastic photographer and we both felt totally at ease with his friendly, relaxed and professional style. The wedding photos we received were were excellent and he caught lots of beautiful and magical moments. He gave us a lovely mixture of candid moments and the more traditional posed photos, which was exactly what we were looking for. We would highly recommend Adam!”
Rachel & Andy

“We approached Adam to be the photographer for our wedding, who is very friendly and easy going. Adam took a wide range of photos on the day without being intrusive but captured the events of the day brilliantly. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Adam or use his services again at a future date.”
Heather & Rhys

“Adam was our wedding photographer back in August.
I chose Adam as he had a great portfolio and I really liked the unobtrusive style. I knew that I didn’t want the wedding photos to take up a huge part of our day.
Adam really took on my preferences and kept the photos after the vows short and sweet. I loved the way he was snapping all our guests even before I arrived. He really did capture the most lovely natural images of our friends and family.
After our wedding breakfast Adam found a lovely spot just opposite our venue so he could capture a few more shots. I loved the way he really looked into the surrounding area to see where we could get the nicest snaps.
All my guests were very complimentary toward Adam and loved his friendly nature. He really felt like one of our guests by the end of the day!
As you can imagine I was delighted with the images which we received about 10 days after the wedding (super quick)
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Adam and am happy to be contacted to give any further feedback. Adam was an amazing find.
Thank you Adam!”
Stacey & Mark
