A small practice
By introduction or enquiry.
Quietly present.
A small practice
I’m Joseph. A documentary wedding photographer based in Bristol, married to Jessica since 2007. I photograph a small number of weddings each year, by introduction or enquiry — across the South West, the UK, and occasionally abroad.
How I work
I cover the day in an almost entirely photojournalistic way, looking for what actually happened rather than what looks good in the moment. No directing. No re-takes. I move quietly and stay out of the way.
What I’m watching for are the larger moments and the smaller ones in between — the half-light, the half-laugh, the half-second between two people.
A bit about me
I collect old cameras and clear glass bottles. I hate DIY but enjoy gardening, bonsai trees especially. The city excites me; I’m a country boy at heart. I dress smart most days, but nothing beats a hoody and joggers at the end of one. Cat person.
Recognition
Member of the Wedding Photojournalist Association. Internationally awarded for documentary wedding work. Recommended photographer for two venues in the South West.

Engagement shoots
Every wedding booking includes an engagement shoot — about an hour, somewhere that matters to you, before the day itself.
Begin quietly
I’d be glad to meet for a coffee or a walk in Bristol and hear about the day you’re planning.
