Hi, I’m Oliver

A London wedding photographer living in Bristol,UK

I absolutely love telling wedding stories and specialise in documenting authentic and honest pictures with a focus on natural lighting.

Every wedding day is as unique as the couples celebrating and I endeavour to ensure that I will make you feel as comfortable as possible, enabling you to just celebrate your day as you intended. Without posing, just epic moments to ensure they are as important to you as the day itself.

I adore great coffee which there are an abundance of on my door step in the city, I am always broadening my musical horizons and can often be found up on Clifton Downs with my cockapoo Elyza.

“Oliver was the absolute best wedding photographer and was instrumental in making our day run smoothly.

We loved the natural style of the photos and captures the moments perfectly. Couldn’t recommend him more!”

“Oliver did such a great job at our wedding! He made us feel so at ease, and got to know all of my bridesmaid’s and family’s names which I thought was such a nice touch.

He captured so many great photos across the day and made sure to get group photos with all the people we wanted. He communicated well and was quick to give us a preview of our photos.

He fitted in so well with the day and was great company to have around, we would recommend him to anyone!”

“Oli surpassed all expectations for what I had for a wedding photographer and took all the stress out the process. It was truly enjoyable to work together.

Oli has a vibrant and easy going energy that brings the best atmosphere to your special day and his documentary style perfectly captures genuine moments without the worry of posing.

Also, his commitment to the dancefloor was superb. A photographer who goes above and beyond to create lasting memories - highly recommend!”
