Real moments, creatively Captured

Hertfordshire Wedding Photographer

Award Winning Documentary Wedding Photography.

Hey there, thanks for scrolling down! So, you are getting married (woohoo!) and you’re on the hunt for a wedding photographer, well thanks for stopping at my site, I hope you like the images that you’ve seen so far. I like to sum my work up as Real Moments, Creatively Captured. Your wedding is unique and I want your photos to reflect this. If you don’t want your wedding to feel like a photoshoot and are looking for a more relaxed, less traditional approach to your day, then you could be looking for a ‘documentary wedding photographer, and would you believe it, that’s what I am! I want you to enjoy your wedding day, with big genuine smiles written all over your happy faces. These are the moments I love to capture. Real moments, captured creatively (see
I said it again!) in a natural and relaxed manner.

I live in Hitchin Hertfordshire, which is the best town in the world, if you don’t know it, come visit, we can grab a coffee and talk weddings! I do travel outside of Hertfordshire, with most of my work falling within the homecounties of Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Cambridgeshire. If you have a wedding taking place outside these areas I would still love to hear all about your celebrations, a festival wedding in Scotland, or a fun filled carnival party in Brighton will most definitely tempt me away from Hertfordshire!

REAL MOMENTS, CREATIVLEY CAPTURED

I don’t believe your wedding day should feel like a photoshoot. I want you to enjoy your day, eat the canapés you’ve paid for, have fun up with your guests, dance till your feet hurt and look adoringly at your new partner in crime, because you want to, not because I’m telling you to. Your wedding is unique and I want your photos to reflect this. On the big day I try to blend into your wedding, capturing the little candid moments that can so easily get lost.

The Wedding Industry Awards

I am beyond proud to have won wedding photographer of the year for the east of England 2023. The wedding Indsutry awards are the very best wedding awards, recognising and rewarding Excellence in the Wedding Industry. For my business to be recognised for the great service I provide, as well as my photographic skills, really does mean the world to me.

PHOTOGRAPHY TEACHING & TRAINING

Besides being a wedding photographer in Hertfordshire, I also love teaching beginners all about photography at Hitchin’s North Herts College. We dive into cool stuff like the exposure triangle, rule of thirds, composition, and more. But the best part? I get to meet awesome people who share a passion for photography and it’s absolutely amazing to see them grow their skills.”

KIND WORDS

“We were unsure whether to invest in a photographer, because we both don’t like having our photo taken! And I can honestly say that Erica was one of the best decisions that we made. Erica made me feel so relaxed and at ease that I totally forgot that she was a there taking photos!

Erica is personable, friendly, professional, organised and sooooo incredibly talented. We really wanted our photos to capture the emotion of the day and Erica did just that. Looking back over the photos we have been reminded of so many special moments and she captured special moments that we loved looking back on. People who couldn’t make the wedding day have commented that they felt like they could feel the emotions of the day from the wonderful photos that she took” Sarah and Wayne South Farm
