Oxfordshire Wedding Photographer
Hi, I’m Lewis, a wedding photographer covering Oxfordshire. Over the years, I have had the pleasure of capturing countless love stories all across the UK and beyond, and let me tell you, it never gets old!
I have photographed well over 200 weddings and built up a reputation over the years for putting everyone at ease, allowing you to celebrate your day to the max. I’m all about capturing candid moments, from the love, laughter, and everything in between. My goal is to give you photographs that will transport you right back to how your day felt.
Posing, I don’t go big on posing, and I won’t take you away from your wedding for hours. I understand you want to spend as much time with your loved ones as possible. At some point though, you’ll want a few creative photographs of the two of you. (No cheesy posing here, and that’s a promise!) But rest assured, these will not take long at all, giving you more time with your nearest and dearest.
From charming rustic barns to sleek city venues, I’ve seen it all and loved every minute of it. If you’re in the mood for some wedding inspiration or just want to see some pretty pictures, then why not check out my portfolio, or read a blog or two!
But enough about me – let’s talk about your big day! As a photographer, my mission is simple – to capture every precious moment of your wedding day with as little intrusion as possible. I believe that the best moments are the ones that happen naturally, so you won’t catch me staging or directing – I prefer to let the magic unfold on its own. Whether it’s the look on your partner’s face as you walk down the aisle, the laughter of your friends and family during the speeches, or the stolen moments of affection between you and your sweetheart, I’ll be there to capture it all.
And when it comes to delivering unforgettable images, I don’t mess around! I pour my heart and soul into every photo, ensuring that you have a treasure trove of memories to look back on for years to come. I believe that your wedding day is one of the most special days of your life, and it deserves to be celebrated and documented in the most beautiful way possible.
If you wish to talk at any point or have any questions, then please contact me anytime!

History of Oxfordshire
Oxfordshire is a county located in South East England, and its history dates back thousands of years. The area was originally settled by the Iron Age Belgae tribe, followed by the Romans in the 1st century AD, who established a town called Alchester. During the Anglo-Saxon period, Oxfordshire was part of the Kingdom of Mercia, and the town of Oxford was founded in the 9th century as a defensive stronghold against Viking raids. The University of Oxford was established in the 12th century and quickly became one of the most prestigious academic institutions in the world. During the Middle Ages, Oxfordshire was a center of trade and commerce, with wool being the main commodity. The county was also home to several important religious sites, including Abingdon Abbey, which was founded in the 7th century. During the English Civil War in the 17th century, Oxfordshire was a Royalist stronghold and saw several battles, including the Battle of Edgehill in 1642. During the Industrial Revolution, Oxfordshire saw significant growth and development, with the expansion of the textile, engineering, and brewing industries. The county also played a key role in the development of the Morris Motor Company, which produced iconic British cars such as the Morris Minor and the Mini.
Today, Oxfordshire is a thriving county with a rich history and a vibrant economy. It is known for its stunning countryside, picturesque towns and villages, and world-renowned academic institutions such as the University of Oxford.
