Stanhope Photo Full Description
Hey, I’m James! 👋🏼 As a wedding photographer I focus on capturing the genuine emotions, unscripted interactions, and authentic details that make your story unique. I love to create honest, compelling imagery that tells your story as it is. I would describe my style as documentary wedding photography with an editorial edge. I do try and stay out of your way as much as possible on the day allowing you and your partner to fully enjoy the wedding you have spent so long planning together. However, I'm never too far off to grab me for a specific shot. When retouching your wedding I aim to keep the edits timeless and natural as you will see from my previous weddings. I want your gallery to serve as a wonderful reminder of your day together with all of your closest people.

I love the excitement & emotion of each and every wedding (I will most likely have a tear in my eye during the speeches). I would love to chat with you more about your wedding day and hear all your plans so please do 'request a brochure' on here or get in touch via my website!
