Photos of me and Pearl by Nadia Meli.
Thirteen years I have been in the world of wedding photography. It's been one hell of a career, and I am thankful every day that this is what I do. There is so much reward in stopping time for people so they can revisit the most precious of memories with the people they love the most.
Every wedding I have photographed has been such an amazing experience. I have cried during many ceremonies, laughed at some incredible speeches and witnessed some of the best dance moves. I love to build a personal relationship with my couples, so that on the day I become a part of it and can really capture the authenticity of their wedding.
Weddings are the ultimate human experience. Its one of the few times in your life that you will have everyone you love around you in the same place. That's why it's so important to me to tell the story of your day through imagery that will be timeless and that will only increase in sentimental value as time goes on.
As well as weddings and photography I have several other passions. My family & friends is the first, split between London and Devon - spending as much time with them as possible is the number one priority for me. Next we have my amazing horse Pearl who I have had since she was a foal. I am a deep lover of anything to do with nature so being outside is incredibly important to me. I love to have adventures through travel and I spent most of my early 20s living in the mountains of various European countries. Reading & writing are also two things I love, and my guilty pleasures are Marvel, GOT and many a fantasy novel (I am a bit of a geek)
I love rich colours and beautiful light, and my work very much reflects that. Atmosphere and emotion are my driving forces. My camera is generally always with me as I get just as excited about photographing the world around me as I do weddings. I love to find beauty in the most unexpected of places.
If you are looking for a documentary wedding photographer who will value your memories as much as you do and who wants to immerse themselves in the joy of your day, then you've come to the right place. I want to fill my diary with couples who are deeply in love; couples who live for the moment and are not afraid to make their wedding a reflection of who they are.
I travel all over the UK for my incredible job, but mostly work within London & the South East. This is a big new adventure that you are taking together and I will be so much more than just a wedding photographer many of my previous couples have become long term friends. This is so much more than business.

WORDS FROM PREVIOUS CLIENTS
“Ami was the photographer at our Wedding back in September.
She was an absolute delight to work with. At every stage of the process she was fantastic and did a brilliant job corralling people and overcoming various complications on the day whilst remaining really positive and keeping us all smiling! Ultimately the photos speak for themselves - she has a fantastic documentary style that delivers beautiful naturalistic results.
Her photos will help the day live long in our memory! We would heartily recommend her for anyone who wants a top notch photographer for a big occasion.

“Ami photographed us for our wedding in May 2022. We are so balled over by our photos, we can’t stop looking at them! She is a true master, she captured everything and the photos bring us right back to our special day. Everything about Ami is relaxed and exactly what we were looking for, we could trust in her completely. We are so thrilled with the beautiful keepsakes and memories for our friends and family. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with Ami again if we could!! Thank you so much and for being so reassuring about the crazy weather!”
“Ami photographed our wedding in London last month and we couldn’t be more delighted to have had her as part of our day. She is so talented and captures the most beautiful photographs that we will treasure forever, on top of which Ami is the most lovely individual. I would highly recommend booking her for your own wedding or event. We have had so many compliments on the photos from our wedding and we can’t stop looking at them. We felt completely reassured from our first phone call that Ami is a seasoned professional, with answers to all of our questions and more. Thank you Ami so much, I wish we could do it all over again!”
“We are thrilled with the photos Ami took of our wedding in London In June 2022. They captured the day and our guests so perfectly. Ami was a joy from start to finish and really fitted in with the wedding making the whole experience amazing and smooth. Everyone at the wedding was particularly impressed with the group photo shots and how organised she was, it meant we as a couple and family were able to have more time to enjoy the wedding. Prior to the wedding we did a pre wedding shoot around London, where she made us feel so relaxed and comfortable (we are both naturally quite camera shy people) we would 100% recommend this as we were all able to get to know each other and the photos were stunning. Thank you Ami.

“Ami is the only choice if you want relaxed, documentary style wedding coverage. She felt like an extra guest rather than a photographer, she blended in so well with our family and friends meaning our photos are of people having the time of their lives without realising they were being photographed. She offered a calming presence and no nonsense advice and reassurance. We honestly can’t recommend her more, the photos are truly special and we will treasure them forever. Ami - thank you for everything!”
