Suffolk Wedding Photography

Congratulations!! You’re getting married!!

Let me tell your story and create images that will make you smile for years to come. Why me? That’s a good question! What I can promise is that I will thrive to capture every moment as it unfolds, including the ones that you didn’t see. My aim is to put you at ease and allow you to relax in front of the camera so that I can create natural, emotive images of your special day.

Hi, I’m Martin!

Based in the heart of Suffolk, I am able to cover weddings not only in Suffolk, Norfolk and Essex but also all over the UK. I have also captured destination weddings.

My role is to tell the story of your day.

I will leave no stone unturned. Before the wedding day I will make it my job to get to know you both. I want to be confident that you will be relaxed around me and the camera. This will ensure that we get natural, non posed images that capture the emotions and moments as they unfold.

I will make it my job to understand your expectations and how to deliver exactly that. It is your special day!

I will visit the venue before the big day, assess lighting, find the best backdrops for beautiful images and check for any potential issues.

I will be fully prepared for any eventuality and remain calm and composed throughout the day. I will make sure that your day is perfect and that the photographs will provide you with a lifetime of happy memories.

“ Martin recently photographed our wedding and did such a magnificent job of capturing the day. He made us feel so at ease during both the pre-wedding shoot and on the wedding day - he was great with all the guests and we are thrilled with how all the photos have come out - they are all more lovely than I could have ever imagined and we will treasure them forever. Can’t thank Martin enough for all he’s done for us :) highly recommend!”

Suffolk Pet Photography

Capturing stunning images of your pet to display in your home

Studio Pet Portraits

Would you love to have some beautiful images of your pet but are worried about how they might behave for a photo session?

You really don’t need to worry! Many of the dogs I have photographed in my studio have been challenging but with patience, treats and a few tricks we always end up with images that show off their personality.

If necessary your dog can stay on the lead and I will remove this during post processing of the images.

It only takes 1/500 second to capture an image so don’t be worrying about your dog not keeping still!!

The Suffolk countryside is full of great locations for an outdoor photo shoot.

“I would highly recommend Martin, we had a studio photoshoot of our dog Wilma and our two children. Martin has so much patience, especially with children and animals. The photos he took are stunning, it was so hard to choose which ones to have as they are all beautiful. Martin is fantastic, thank you for our gorgeous photos.”
