PHOTOGRAPHY THAT FOCUSES ON CONNECTION NOT PERFECTION
"Wow! You are super talented. How you managed to capture all you did I have no idea. You were discreet, yet managed to capture some of the most personal moments I thought I would never get to see. This is exactly what we wanted - magnificent colours and people relaxing and having fun. We love them all.
Your professionalism and friendliness (which is still being talked about even today) was important to me as I hate the camera and contemplated not having a photographer! Thank you so much, we could not have asked for better!"
Hey, I’m Polly!
I’m here to capture your wedding day exactly as it happens—no awkward posing, no forced smiles, just the real, beautiful, messy, joyful and humorous moments that make your day yours.
With over 15 years of experience (and a knack for blending in like a stealthy photography ninja - most of the time), I’ll be there to catch the big emotions, the little glances, the wild (and questionable) dance moves, and everything in between. Cornwall and Devon’s epic landscapes make the perfect backdrop, whether you’re getting married on a windswept clifftop, a sandy beach, or in a cosy countryside venue.
If you want wedding photos that feel natural, relaxed, and full of personality (without the cringe), let’s chat—I’d love to be part of your day!
"You gave us photographs of moments of our day that I never imagined I would get to see."
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT! THESE ARE EXCITING TIMES AS YOUR PLAN FOR YOUR SPECIAL DAY
My Approach
I photograph weddings in a candid and spontaneous manner keeping true to the event of your day. I focus on noticing and celebrating the personalities, chemistry, emotions, connections and details - providing you with natural timeless photographs that will make you feel like you haven't missed a thing and that you will look back on in years to come with fond memories.
Your wedding shouldn't feel like a photo shoot. You should be living in the moment and enjoying the company of your guests, so in our preparations, we will work out what you would like from your photography and identify any specific events or group photographs that you would like included. These don't take long on the day and are fun and relaxed.
How will I work on your big day?
I will adapt to the unique mix of energies of the people at your wedding so that I blend in and connect at the same time. I can be a calming influence and someone to laugh with whilst you get ready, I can help fix those button holes at the last minutes and I'll have tissues on hand for when things get a bit emotional. Don't worry, I will also get in the thick of things in the dance floor.
At some point during your day, we will take a walk, find some gorgeous light or amazing views. I won't keep you from your guests for too long, but it will give you some quality time together (even if its just 15 minutes to take a breath) - after all, you have just got married.
The rest of my time will be spent observing and capturing the day as it unfolds. As your two families and groups of friends meet, I will be mingling to capture the characters and the camera-shy, to the looks, love and laughter, the food, the venue, the setting and all those details that you may well have spent months planning, as well as any moments that you may miss - as you can't be everywhere.
"I can't believe how perfectly you've captured the day...the emotions, vibrant colours, little personal touches, all the beautiful details...stunning photography."
"Polly was far more than just a wedding photographer, she was an absolute godsend! Comedian, confidant, counsellor and dare-devil. She seemed to be omnipresent, or perhaps part Ninja!"
"She was more than just a photographer...she made a perfect day all the more special. Worth every penny!" Jess & Jack
