Me and you

Not a fly on the wall. More like a guest who's working.

What it's actually like having me at your wedding — and what happens either side of it.

The honest answer

Somewhere between invisible and involved

“Fly on the wall” makes it sound like I’ll be hiding behind a curtain. I won’t be. I’ll be in the room — talking to your gran, getting out of the way of the caterers, standing somewhere useful about four seconds before something happens.

Most of the day you’ll forget I’m there. When you do notice me, it shouldn’t feel like an interruption.

What to expect on the day

Reading the room, from the moment I arrive

I'll check in with you, introduce myself to the people who matter, and quietly get to work without creating a fuss. I work comfortably alongside other suppliers and adapt quickly if plans change — which they often do — so you never feel like the photography is adding pressure.

If things are calm, I stay in the background. If the energy shifts, I move with it. When you need guidance, I'll offer it gently. When you don't, I'll step back and let the moments happen.

A smile on my face

Whatever's happening, you'll usually find me calm, positive, and fully tuned in to what's unfolding around me.

Suggest, never demand

No awkward posing, no cheesy setups — unless that genuinely is your thing.

Unfazed by weather

Rain, low light, changing conditions — all part of the day. Some of the most memorable images come from the unexpected.

On the day

If things are calm I stay in the background. If the energy shifts, I move with it.

Before the day, and after it

The bits that are easy to get wrong

Most of the worry about a wedding photographer isn’t about photographs. It’s about whether someone replies, and when the pictures actually turn up. So here are both, in writing.

Who turns up

When you book me, you get me.

Not an associate. Not whoever happens to be free that weekend. The person you meet is the person who photographs your wedding, and the person who edits it afterwards.

If something ever stopped me getting there, you would hear it from me the moment I knew — and I would find you someone I’d trust with my own wedding.

Kind words from couples

“Che was creative, chilled, and so easy to be around. He captured parts of the day we never would have seen and made the whole process feel relaxed and natural. The photos are simply perfect.”

Harry

“We're both former photographers and were very particular, but Che delivered perfectly. He made us feel completely at ease, blended in effortlessly, and captured stunning moments throughout the day.”

Luca

“Che brought such a warm, calm energy to our wedding and felt like a friend throughout the day. He captured every emotion beautifully, including moments we never want to forget.”

Frequently asked

How much of the day do you cover?
Full-day coverage is standard. That means I'm there for the full story — from the quieter moments earlier on through to the energy later in the evening — without watching the clock or rushing away.
We're not very comfortable in front of the camera — is that a problem?
Not at all. Most couples I work with say the same thing. My approach is relaxed and documentary-led, with gentle guidance only when it's helpful. You don't need to know what to do — I'll take care of that part.
How long do couple portraits take?
Very little time. We usually nip off for short pockets throughout the day rather than one long session. It keeps things relaxed and means you're never away from your guests for long.
Do you work with videographers and other suppliers?
Yes, and happily. I work collaboratively and unobtrusively alongside other suppliers to keep everything running smoothly.
