Life isn’t posed, the smiles shouldn’t be fake (unless you’re trying your mother-in-law’s cooking for the first time) and neither is Mark Wallis’ fabulous photography. With Mark, the bride and groom can enjoy their wedding without being pulled away for awkwardly posed photos and the end result is gorgeous, honest pictures of the happiest day of their lives.

The best moments on a wedding day “just happen” and there’s nothing worse than seeing those lost.

Allister Freeman
Style: Reportage, contemporary
Where: London & UK
The thing that struck us about Allister Freeman is how much attention he pays to the smallest details; the make-up, the straightening of the bow-tie, the nervous glass of bubbly with the bridesmaids and the moment where the groom lays eyes on the bride are all caught in his unique, creative blend of contemporary reportage.
David Stubbs

Where: Manchester & UK
The joy, the tears and the smiles, it’s all plain to see in David Stubbs’ amazing documentary style photography. GoHen loves the genuine emotion, the unique-ness of each happy couple and with pictures so perfectly timed, it’s hard to believe that not one of them was staged.
Jamie Bott

Being able to capture a single photo that can bring the whole day back to life is a very rare talent indeed. Jamie Bott does it in so many of the photos he presents to his happy couples.

Kevin Wilson
Style: Contemporary, reportage
Where: Dorset, UK & abroad
We need to talk about Kevin. He’s got the rare distinction of a fellowship in the BIPP, RPS and MPA meaning there’s serious skill behind his OMG wedding shots. But qualifications mean nothing without that natural eye and innate skill to let the wedding tell its own story. Somehow he then lets it all flow into his lens to produce some breath taking results. A true artist.

Friendly, family-run and always relaxed, Christian Michael is an amazing wedding photographer with a fair share of awards to his name.

Where: Devon, UK & abroad
Anna and Mike are getting ready to be on the other side of the camera (they’re in the midst of planning their own wedding).

Kirstin Prisk
Style: Contemporary
Where: Cornwall
As well as Tatler, Harper’s Bazaar, Brides Magazine, Wed and Vogue, Kirstin’s also appeared on BBC’s hilarious Don’t Tell the Bride. With a stunning eye for detail, it’s no wonder he’s earned so many plaudits and little hiccoughs like “crying over the movie Cinderella” (don’t worry Kirstin, we won’t tell a soul) are a clue to how he makes the romance that is at the heart of the big day are recorded for everyone to enjoy.
