Candid, Relaxed & Romantic
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.
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).
Have FUN on your wedding day!
I create wedding photography that is atmospheric, natural and candid.
I won’t ask you to pose excessively or look at the camera.
