Emotional Wedding Photographer


I’m Laura, a Yorkshire-based wedding photographer for couples who value connection, calm and considered beauty. I specialise in capturing weddings with a refined, unobtrusive approach — documenting honest moments, gentle emotions and the quiet magic that often goes unnoticed. If you’re drawn to elegant celebrations that feel deeply personal rather than performative, my work is about preserving your day with care, sensitivity and timeless artistry, so your memories are felt just as much as they are seen.

“On the morning of the wedding, it took Laura all of approximately 3 minutes to feel like family. She fit into the day seamlessly.

Laura is incredibly kind, especially talented, and has the patience of a saint. I will recommend Laura for wedding photography to everyone I meet - she is completely wonderful.”

“"It was easy to trust Laura to give us directions when needed for posed shots and upon receiving the final photos we found she had captured moments so small and precious we simply wouldn’t have known they’d happened on the day. I cannot recommend Laura enough, simply extraordinary!”

I don't force you into natural poses, and I would absolutely hate if you were to look at a photo from your day and think "remember when the photographer made us do this?"


My goal from couples portraits is to document the love and connection you share, to encapsulate it in an image for you to keep, as a timeless snap shot of this moment in your life.


So many people feel anxious about having their photos taken, but I approach these situations with compassion and empathy. Your wedding is about you; your happiness and the joy you feel in that moment, I am there to document that and support you in creating beautiful portraits, without anxiety or rigid agenda.

To document these perfectly unique moments that are so special to you and your family is a true privilege.


I am driven by the desire to creatively capture the story of your wedding and create images that narrate this once in a lifetime moment in your lives.
