Think of me as your personal hype girl and honorary bridesmaid!

Hi, I’m Clare!

Natural Wedding Photographer Manchester

There are lots of fancy photography terms online, and it can be a bit confusing. Words like documentary, relaxed, photojournalistic, and reportage are thrown around a lot. But honestly, they all mean the same thing: capturing your day in a natural and unposed way. I enjoy watching people, predicting their reactions, and you'll never hear me say 'say cheese'—never! I dive into the day, taking pictures of you and your guests having fun, capturing real moments you might miss.

“My wife and I had a pre-wedding photography session with Clare in the Northern Quarter. From the moment we met Clare, we felt completely at ease, even though we were both apprehensive about the prospect of being photographed. She was upbeat, encouraging and kind and helped our awkwardness melt away. We ended up having to bring our very anxious dog along and even that didn’t phase Clare. We were blown away by the results”
