If you’re hosting a special event in Bristol and want to focus on enjoying time with your friends, family, or guests — while still having the moments captured properly — I’d love to photograph it for you.

I offer documentary-style event photography in Bristol and the surrounding areas, covering everything from relaxed private celebrations to polished corporate events. Whether it’s a small family birthday gathering, a christening or baptism, a surprise party, a school prom, or a large corporate dinner or gala, my approach remains the same: natural, unobtrusive, and thoughtful.

I work calmly and discreetly, blending into the background so your event can unfold naturally. Rather than interrupting or over-directing, I focus on genuine interactions, atmosphere, and the moments that often go unnoticed on the day — the laughter, reactions, and connections that truly tell the story.

All event photography bookings include two professional photographers throughout, ensuring full coverage from multiple angles and complete peace of mind. Travel within 20 miles of Bristol is included, making it easy to plan your event photography without hidden extras.

Corporate Event Photography

Events in Bristol and the South West that I photograph

I provide event photography across Bristol and the surrounding areas for a wide range of private, corporate, and community events, including:

Private parties, including birthdays, anniversaries, engagement parties, house parties and garden parties

Christenings, baptisms, and religious celebrations

Large extended family gatherings and milestone celebrations

School proms and formal school events

Corporate events, conferences, office parties, balls, dinners, and awards evenings

Community events, auction evenings, and charity fundraisers

I don’t photograph festivals or nightclub events, but I’m very happy to cover formal evening events, including corporate balls, dinners, and gala evenings.

If you’re unsure whether your event is a good fit, please feel free to get in touch and we can talk it through.

Events move quickly. Conversations overlap, laughter breaks out unexpectedly, and the best moments rarely happen on cue. That’s where documentary event photography works best.

I photograph events in a calm, observant way, blending into the background so guests feel comfortable and relaxed. The result is a collection of images that feel honest and polished, without looking staged or forced. Whether your event is formal or informal, intimate or lively, my aim is always the same — to capture the energy, connection, and details that make it memorable.

While I’m based in Bristol, I’m happy to travel throughout the South West and across the UK for event photography.

My approach to event photography is the same as my wedding photography: unobtrusive, documentary-led, and focused on genuine moments. This allows you to enjoy your time with friends, family, or colleagues, knowing everything is being captured naturally. Alongside candid coverage, I’m always happy to take group photographs or accommodate any specific requests you may have. Optional additions, such as a manned photo booth with props, can also be arranged.

What to expect from your event photography

Before your event, we’ll talk through the schedule, key moments you’d like covered, and the overall feel you’re aiming for. This helps me work efficiently on the day while remaining flexible as plans naturally evolve.

On the day itself, we work discreetly and professionally, documenting the event as it happens. Coverage includes a natural mix of wide shots, candid moments, guest interactions, and smaller details, creating a well-rounded visual story of your event.

Afterwards, your images are carefully edited in my signature style and delivered via a private online gallery, ready to download and share.

Two photographers, every event

All event photography bookings include two professional photographers as standard.

Having two photographers means nothing important is missed. While one of us focuses on key moments, speakers, or formal parts of the event, the other captures candid reactions, atmosphere, and details happening elsewhere.

This approach allows for:

More natural, documentary coverage without rushing
A wider variety of images, angles, and perspectives
Simultaneous coverage of key moments and guest reactions
Smooth coverage of larger or fast-moving events
Peace of mind that everything is being captured properly

Working as a two-photographer team also allows us to adapt easily if timings change, ensuring consistent, high-quality coverage throughout your event.

Whether it’s a corporate dinner, brand launch, private celebration, or community event, this approach ensures your event is documented thoroughly and professionally from start to finish.

Event photography is typically priced by the hour, with options available for both short coverage and longer events.

Full pricing details are provided on enquiry so everything is clear from the start.

All event coverage includes two professional photographers as standard, so nothing important is missed.
