My Story
My Story
For me, photography has never been about pressing a button or ticking off a shot list. It's about storytelling.
I don't just want you to remember how your day looked — I want you to remember exactly how it felt. The nervous excitement in the morning. The laughter halfway through the speeches. That surge of energy when the dancefloor finally fills.
I work in a documentary-led, cinematic style, which means honest, unscripted moments instead of stiff, awkward posing. Your gallery should feel like a film of your day — full of the details you didn't even notice were happening.
I'm based in Burnley and photograph weddings throughout the Ribble Valley, Clitheroe, Manchester and the wider North West — from countryside barns beneath Pendle Hill to city-centre celebrations.
My promise to you: I bring a calm, friendly, human presence to every wedding. You look your best when you feel relaxed, so my job is to create that atmosphere — and quietly handle everything else.

BEHIND THE CAMERA
A few more things
At home in Burnley
I'm Tom — a creative soul with a habit of noticing life's fleeting moments. I live in Burnley with my fiancée, Rachel, and our ginger cat, Pumpkin. Rachel's creative in her own right, now self-employed and running her own podcast, and still lends a hand with my photography now and then. Our home runs on laughter and creative energy — and I carry that same energy into every wedding I photograph.
Off duty
Off duty, I'm usually still learning something — always trying to better myself, whether that's a new skill or just a better habit. You'll often find me out walking the Lancashire countryside, having a picnic with Rachel, or lost in a Nintendo classic with some questionable dancing thrown in.
Everything feeds the craft
Everything I do feeds back into my craft. The games I play, the books I read, the places I walk — they all shape how I see a wedding day. I never want two couples' galleries to feel the same, so I approach every wedding fresh, looking for the perspective that makes your story unmistakably yours.
At home in Burnley
I'm Tom — a creative soul with a habit of noticing life's fleeting moments. I live in Burnley with my fiancée, Rachel, and our ginger cat, Pumpkin. Rachel is my biggest supporter and occasional collaborator; she's wonderfully creative herself, recently launching her YouTube channel "Lofi Lounge & Café", blending her original music with spooky-cute animations. Our home runs on laughter and creative energy — and I carry that same energy into every wedding I photograph.
Off duty
Off duty, I'm usually learning something. I have ADHD, which keeps me endlessly driven and curious — you'll often find me deep in a business or self-help audiobook, at the gym, or out walking the Lancashire countryside to clear my head. And when it's time to properly switch off? Nintendo classics and questionable dancing.

“I want you to open your gallery in ten years and feel the day all over again — not just see it.”
