A little more about me.
Hey, I’m Stuart! I’m a professional wedding photographer based in Dorset, UK and available worldwide.
Hailing from sunny Bournemouth, it was almost impossible to avoid getting involved in the local nightclub scene. Little did I know this would be where I would get my initial training for dealing with Auntie Julie after she’s had a few too many free prosecco’s at the end of a wedding.
It also helped me to develop my chops at photographing in some of the most difficult of environments. As both myself and my photography style matured, I decided to focus exclusively on wedding photography. With a slightly mixed and confused photography background, I developed a style that can barely be categorised.
It’s both fun and dramatic. It’s both moody and natural. It’s filmic but still very modern.
I also brought my nightclub skills to the table and really pull out all the stops when the bottles get popped and the heels get swapped out for something a little more comfortable. The party is definitely one of the best bits. The things I get to see really are beyond words, and that’s what makes it so awesome!
There’s something about being invited to be such an important part of a couple’s day that just gets the creative juices flowing on levels I couldn’t have imagined.
At the risk of blowing my own trumpet—I was also voted by industry leaders as one of the 10 best wedding photographers in the world at the 2021 International Wedding Photographer of the Year Awards. Couldn’t resist slipping that one in there.
Alongside photography, I also like to travel. By travel, I don’t mean flying to Spain and sitting by the pool for two weeks. I mean driving through a blizzard in North Iceland before a week-long road trip kind of travelling.
Do I photograph worldwide? You’re damn right I photograph worldwide. Just let me know where you’re getting married—I’ll be there and be part of the adventure.
