Hello!

Hi, Im Gareth A professional UK & International wedding photographer from South Wales.

So this is me, posing with a camera as a subtle hint that I am indeed a photographer. Some call me an advertising genius. Ive been photographing weddings for over 7 years. Ive photographed weddings in some amazing venues, such as Pencoed House Estate, Gileston Manor and a bunch of others. Ive also photographed professionally in both Australia & New Zealand !

My photography ethos

your wedding day isn’t a photoshoot — it’s a party. I’ll make sure you spend less time posing and more time celebrating (while still getting those photos that last forever)

Authentic moments

A bride and groom share a kiss during their wedding ceremony in an ornate, gold-trimmed room, with guests watching and smiling in the background.

The best moments aren’t posed — they just happen. I’m there to catch the laughter, the tears, and everything in between.

Life

My life outside of wedding photography is travel. It is my absolute passion. I have been lucky enough to live in both New Zealand and Australia, travel to the Philippines, see the northern lights in Iceland and feel like i’m in a movie in New York. I love to travel. Photography still plays a huge part of my life, capturing placess I have traveled to its such a joy to me.
