Birmingham Wedding Photographer

RELAXED & ROMANTIC, TIMELESS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Hi, I’m Jo! A Wedding Photographer based in Birmingham. I photograph weddings across the whole of the UK and abroad. From luxury manor houses and rustic barn venues in the West Midlands counties of Warwickshire, Worcestershire, Staffordshire and Shropshire to urban city weddings in Birmingham. I love them all! I’m all about capturing real moments and emotions on your wedding day in a creative, storytelling style.

WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY THAT TELLS YOUR STORY

My wedding photography style is a mix of heartfelt, natural moments, as they happen, along with some relaxed portraits and editorial style details. I love to photograph genuine connections, so your couple photos won’t feel like your posing. Instead, you’ll be laughing, talking a walk and sharing a genuine moment. Your photos will look effortless and stylish.

OVER A DECADE OF EXPERIENCE

Over the past 12 years, I’ve gained so much knowledge and experience. I’ve captured over 300 weddings and I’ve faced every kind of scenario you can think of. From rainy days, to heatwaves, small, intimate wedding days to large multi day celebrations and everything in between. I can handle anything that comes my way. I’m a calm reasuring presence who will chat to your guests and fit into your day like one of the gang. You can relax knowing your wedding photography is in expert hands.

I adore weddings and I’m passionate about you having an incredible experience working with me. Nothing is too much trouble! I’m on hand to advise with timelines and give tips on how to make your day run smoothly. On the big day I’m there to calm you down and be your biggest cheerleader. Do up dresses, pin button holes, dry bouquets. I want you to feel like you’re my only clients and that I’m the best decision you made for your wedding.
