Candid, Relaxed & Atmospheric

Wedding Photography


by UK & International Photographer, Samantha Masters



If you are looking for a candid wedding photographer who specializes in capturing genuine, unposed moments throughout a wedding day. Then look no further! My approach is centered around documenting real emotions, interactions, and details rather than orchestrating poses. My aim is to blend into the background, allowing couples, family members, and guests to act naturally, which results in authentic and heartfelt images. I want to capture your wedding and present your images as a timeless body of work for you to cherish.

Have FUN on your wedding day!

My wedding photography is all about documenting the day as it happens in my signature rich & warm tones ; no staged photographs (except for group photographs).


I let the day happen & capture the moments...


I create wedding photography that is atmospheric, natural and candid, with a touch of romance & luxury.

I won’t ask you to pose excessively or look at the camera.


It’s all about capturing the real you!
