registry office photography.
Twelve minutes.
Still a big deal.
No seating plan, no first dance, no seventeen bridesmaids. Just you, some nervous laughing, a stranger in a lanyard telling you you're officially married, and then straight to the pub.
Registry office weddings move fast. I move faster. Short ceremony, big feelings, someone else's wedding party walking past yours on the way out. I'll catch all of it, and none of it will look like it was taken in a council building.
You didn't want the marquee, the string quartet or the eighteen-month engagement. You wanted it done properly and quickly, with people you love. Your photos should match that energy.
All the photos on this page were taken at registry offices or during a short coverage package. See what’s really possible.

Making a day of it.
Six hours of coverage, for when the registry office is the start of the day, not the whole of it. The ceremony, portraits somewhere better than the car park, and the party after.

All photos are delivered via an online gallery, where you can download your photos and share them with family and friends.
Sneak peeks (~20 photos) are available within 48 hours of the wedding, and the rest will arrive 8-12 weeks later. Weddings outside of peak season will be delivered faster.

Of course! I’m mostly here for the candid chaos and unhinged portraits, but I’ll make sure Granny gets her mantelpiece photo.
However, I advise keeping these shots to a minimum. You will get photo fatigue. I recommend a maximum of 8 ‘must haves’ and then we can play it by ear for the rest.
(Wild wedding party photos are the exception, they’re my favourites!)

Me too, hun.
99% of my couples say this, but my photos speak for themselves.
I’ll never make you do anything that feels truly uncomfortable, but I’ll prompt and guide along the way to make sure you look amazing.
I love keeping portrait sessions playful - the more fun you have, the better your photos.

FAQs
Who even is she?
❤️🔥Heather❤️🔥
I’m a motorbike-riding, trail-running, dog-loving, adventure-seeking, vintage-wearing elder emo living in the Pennines with my videographer husband, two dogs and two cats.
My photography career started out in the sports industry, and I decided that if I could shoot bikes at 40mph I could probably handle a wedding.
In a former life I was a science teacher. This has given me a number of transferrable skills, as wrangling teenagers is the same as wrangling drunk uncles.
I want to be the antidote to boring, stuffy and beige wedding photography. I’ll make sure your important memories are beautifully preserved, but bring plenty of fun and colour along the way.
