Hi, I'm Martin, a Bristol wedding and elopement photographer covering weddings all over the UK and destination wedding photography overseas. I have been documenting weddings for 10 years and had a chance to eat more than 350 different pieces of wedding cakes! Trust me this is not the main reason why I'm photographing weddings :) I truly love my job. I love capturing the little moments, the candid ones when nobody thinks I'm looking; memories that may otherwise be forgotten. After many years working as wedding photographer Somerset, I pride myself on providing each of my bride and grooms with very friendly and professional service. I have plenty of fantastic reviews from past couples and I won quite a few awards too! My photos have been published on a range of online wedding blogs including The English Wedding blog, The Wedding Community, Festival Brides, Fly Away Bride. I also love travelling and has been to more than 50 countries and still have plenty to visit, some of them for weddings! I am fluent in English, Spanish, Polish and "Portuñol" ;). I'm a family man, hiker, dog owner and Asian food lover. I spent 13 months exploring South & Central America before I became a Bristol wedding photographer and interestingly enough my first wedding that I ever photographed was in Mexico!

I discovered photography in 2012 and quickly found it to be the creative outlet I had always sought. I have an IT/software development background and one of the things that attracted me to photography was the blend of technical and creative elements. I still love learning about new cameras and lighting and discovering the wonders of photo editing software. Of all the different types of photography, I’m drawn to people, moments, emotion and reactions. A wedding is the perfect environment to experience all of this and was the main driver for setting up my wedding photography business. Also, I really love the ‘access all areas’ pass you get when photographing a wedding – taking the pictures that no one else gets, of people at their happiest. There is no better feeling than when I capture a spontaneous moment (be it of the couple, a loved one or close friend) and they are lost for words or cry when seeing it for the first time on the screen of my camera. I always think this is what it’s all about and it’s a privilege to know that some of the pictures I take may well become someone’s most prized possessions. Being able to produce a body of work that perfectly captures each couple’s wedding from start to end is so rewarding. I am a very cheery, bubbly, chatty person who is passionate about photography and weddings. Whilst I’m as inconspicuous as possible for certain parts of the wedding (ceremony & speeches), I’ll probably chat and interact with the entire wedding party through the rest of the day; I smile, laugh, joke with them whilst snapping away. I work my hardest to make sure everyone is relaxed and ignores the fact that I have a camera. Once this relationship is established, the real genuine, camera unaware moments happen and I’ll be there to capture them! The couple’s portrait sessions I shoot are always very jolly and relaxed. Ultimately, I am looking for genuine laughter and emotion and I do all that I can to bring this out so we can get some really beautiful, natural portraits. [Bristol Wedding Photographer]

I grew up in a small town next to a beautiful mountain and my intense love of nature came from wandering through woods with friends and spending time with my grandparents in the country. As a child, I found our family Pentax camera endlessly fascinating even before I was able to use it. Later I finally got my first digital camera and was arranging impromptu portrait sessions with my friends during the holidays. I was always interested in creative media and music but decided on a career in business and marketing. After not long, I decided to take seriously my passion from my childhood and give up my day job. Wedding photography came to me by being asked to take photos of my friend's wedding. I feel very privileged to be able to get to know new people by witnessing a very intimate day of their life. After every wedding, I feel I have experienced and learned a lot. It's like you are watching a very emotional movie but you also run around and snap all day :) I love capturing natural moments and telling an honest story of the day. I have photographed more than 50 weddings in England and abroad since 2016. [London Wedding Photographer]
