Looking for a Wedding Photographer for Over Barn?

If you’re planning your wedding at Over Barn and want natural, documentary wedding photography that captures the atmosphere without taking over — you’re in the right place.

My approach at Over Barn is always documentary-led. I capture the fun, emotion and atmosphere as it unfolds, working quietly with a fly-on-the-wall presence.

I won’t pull you away for hours of posed photos or make you miss time with your guests. Your wedding day isn’t a photoshoot — it’s a celebration. And the most meaningful photographs are always the natural ones aren’t they?

No staging. No over-posing. Just honest storytelling.


What About Group Photos?

Whilst 90% of my photography is candid, we’ll absolutely do group shots (if you want of course!)— just quickly and efficiently.

I usually suggest around 8–10 group combinations, keeping it to roughly 15–20 minutes. The barn exterior or courtyard makes a perfect rustic backdrop.

We’ll get them done smoothly (And I can even make them quite fun!), so you can get straight back to your guests.

Because no one books Over Barn to spend half their day standing in lines.
