Hi I’m Martin

and I am a Nottingham based wedding photographer specialising in fun, documentary-led photography. Most couples I work with tell me the same thing. They want to have fun on their wedding day without constantly having to pose for photos. But they do still want some photos for family and a handful of portraits they’ll want to hang on their walls.

After training with some of the best photographer’s in the world, my approach is simple. I document the real moments exactly as they unfold, then step in briefly to create beautiful portraits that feel like you. The best of both worlds!

Two Storytellers, One Shared Vision

Let me introduce my wife Daiga. We’re partners in life and in our creative work. Together we photograph and film weddings with an instinctive rhythm that only comes from years of working side by side.

Our style is relaxed and honest. We work quietly in the background, offering gentle direction when needed but always letting the day unfold naturally.
This approach means you get to enjoy your wedding, staying present and celebrating with your favourite people.

Daiga is one of the UK’s best wedding videographer’s, known for her instinctive eye and effortless storytelling. I bring a documentary led approach mixing in stunning yet relaxed portraits and storytelling photos.

Together we offer a seamless experience. One team, one story, beautifully told in both motion and stills.

“from start to finish, the experience was incredible”
