The feeling of your partner's hand in yours. The excitement of starting a new chapter together. The warmth and pride in your loved ones’ eyes as they celebrate with you.


These moments are brief - but they don’t have to fade.


As a wedding photographer, my aim is simple - to capture the day authentically and unobtrusively. So that you can experience it again, and again.


Based in Darlington and the North East, I offer unlimited coverage of your day with various packages to suit your needs.  I will happily travel across the UK and beyond. From the mountains of Italy to a luxury hotel in County Durham, I'll capture the magic of your day - just as you imagined it.

My wedding photography approach

Your wedding only happens once! You want to be present for it, drink in every moment. But, you want beautiful photos too...

Good news - you don't have to choose.

I don't need to pose you for hours to get incredible, real photos. My approach is 95% in-the-moment, candid wedding photography. I capture genuine moments, which makes for great photos.

For the group and couple shots, I offer a gentle nudge in the right direction. My secret to making this part fun and easy is really getting to know you and your partner on a personal level before the big day. This is something I heavily resonate with.

i love to travel


I am primarily, but not exclusively, a Darlington and North East wedding photographer.

Darlington is known for its railway lines, connecting Newcastle and the rest of the country. I love exploring Darlington's venues, and love to travel others all over the country.

My favourite venue (so far!) is Dalton Old Pumphouse, an incredibly luxurious venue in the North-East. I'm soon travelling to Italy to do my first destination wedding, how exciting!

Testimonials
Josh was professional, friendly and approachable all day! As two people who aren’t super comfortable in front of the camera, he made us super comfortable and the photos prove it

Testimonials
We planned our day with just one wish - that it was relaxed for us and everyone who attended, Josh knew this and took on board our comments that we wanted photos to be natural wherever possible and he absolutely nailed it!
