About me…

Hi, I’m Steph (she/her) and the face behind “Kiss Photo”.

I have always loved the quirky, the alternative and the creative. Whatever your vibe, whatever your style, I have you covered.

After gaining a Fine Art degree specialising in photography, I spent 14 years working in photography. My experience has included working for some of the UK’s leading brands, Argos, Habitat and Sainsbury’s, covering web, multimedia and print content. I have travelled and worked as a photographer on cruise ships, and been featured in The Sunday Times after winning a photography competition. However, weddings is where my passion lies - it’s been great seeing the industry evolving with more venue, outfit and even catering options these days. Gone are the days of solely church or registry office weddings, now you are able to choose what is important to you and what reflects your individual personalities and uniqueness that makes each couple so special. Your day should encapsulate you, and that is exactly what I set out to do through my photography.

After recently getting married myself, I fully understand how important it is to bring your vision to life and to enjoy a stress free day with your loved ones.

With me, you will get a photographer, but also somebody to help with all the small details on the day ensuring it runs smoothly; from helping with button holes, smoothing out dresses, grabbing your glass of fizz, or ushering Great Aunt Gert for a family photo.

Your day should be relaxed, stress free and a whole heap of fun. Yes, I will grab you for couples shots, however, I will space these out during the day so your wedding is as seamless as possible. I will capture lots of candid shots of yourselves and your guests, because, let’s face it, that’s when you get your most natural relaxed pics, and I will cover all the other small details of your day.

Sounds good? Fab! Get in touch and let’s make your perfect day a reality.

My approach…am I your cup of tea?

I know I wont be every couples cup of tea and if you’re looking for a Photographer that will direct and control every moment of your day then I am probably not the right photographer for you. For me, the most important thing as your Wedding Photographer is capturing those true, real and raw moments from your day.

Your Wedding day should feel like your day; seamless, full of laughter and completely relaxed. Follow traditions, break traditions or make your own traditions - I am there for it all. If you are relaxed and naturally having fun then this will come across in your images.

I will step in when needed to keep group photos efficient and calm, guide you during couple shots so they feel natural, and step back to let those moments of laughter and joy unfold when it’s right to do so.

I will be the calming presence behind the camera, working like a stealth ninja to capture those moments that make your wedding day that once in a lifetime event.
