Welcome, my name is Kate

And I’m a Manchester & Cheshire wedding photographer covering the UK & beyond, if you’ll have me.

I’m here for those quiet looks and that just-married giddiness, the space between the larger moments & the deep breaths you take to centre yourselves in tandem.

I’m your hype girl, your confidante, your timeline advisor & your extra set of hands. This is wedding photography based on trust, creativity & a little letting go

I'm here to be your time machine, to remind you of how it felt.

Emily & Lewis - A Gloriously Sunny & Joyful Spring Wedding at Mottram Hall - Cheshire Wedding Photographer

As a Cheshire wedding photographer, I’m lucky to work at some truly beautiful venues, but Mottram Hall always feels a little bit magical. And this one? Extra special. When Emily & Lewis first got in touch, neither of us realised we were actually neighbours — a discovery that made our first meeting feel more like a chat with old friends than a booking consultation. The best kind of surprise.

Hannah & Andrew - A Joyous Sale Town Hall & Kimpton Clocktower Wedding - Manchester Wedding Photographer

Just a few short weeks ago, Hannah & Andrew got in touch about their Sale Town Hall wedding. With their gorgeous two-year-old daughter Imogen already keeping them busy and another baby on the way, wedding planning had been delightfully last-minute — and I’m so glad our paths crossed when they did.

Jakub & Sebastian - An Intimate & Emotional Sale Town Hall Wedding - Cheshire Wedding Photographer

Yesterday was one of those wedding days that quietly settles into your heart and stays there.

I had the honour of photographing Jakub & Sebastian’s intimate wedding at Sale Town Hall — my most local wedding venue, and one I genuinely love. There’s something timeless and tender about weddings at Sale Town Hall. It always feels like a place where meaningful stories unfold, and this one was no exception.

A Bittersweet Farewell: Keira & Tom’s Beautiful Wedding at The Holford Estate - Cheshire Wedding Photographer

This Saturday, I had the absolute joy—and a little heartbreak—of photographing Keira and Tom’s wedding at The Holford Estate. It wasn’t just any wedding. It was the last ever wedding to be held at this incredible Cheshire venue after nine magical years of love stories, laughter, and unforgettable celebrations.
