I try to cover the most common questions that I am asked below. If the answer you are looking for is not here, please get in touch where I will be more than happy to divulge further!
I have been a full time wedding photographer 8 years now, before that I worked part time in Manchester whilst running my wedding photography business along side. I have shot over 250 weddings both here in the UK and Europe.
I am a Canon user. I shoot primarily on a Canon R6 mirrorless system and I use prime lenses. I have a second camera which is my backup camera and that is a Canon 5D . I edit all my images on Apple mac or iPad. I also use the latest version of Photoshop through my Adobe Creative Cloud. All my computers sync which gives me freedom to edit anywhere.
Over the years I have worked on my editing style and I have found I love natural skin tones, bright and vibrant colours which look natural, with warmth and contrast. I shoot underexposed slightly so that I can get nice crisp shots that include movement in my images.
if my editing style isn’t what you like, maybe I’m not the photographer for you, and you would be best finding a photographer that suits your style.
All my full day weddings will receive at least 500 fully edited images. I shoot the story of your wedding in a documentary style, and for this reason the number of images you will get will likely be higher than 500. It sounds a lot but it really will tell the full story of your day. I send you both a private online gallery, for you to view your story, you can share this with friends and family. I will also deliver a USB with your images uploaded and ready to print.
Yes. Up to 48 hours after your wedding I will send you both a few sneak peaks from the day. The remaining images can take between 8-12 weeks to be fully edited, especially in high season which is April through to October.

KIND WORDS
EXCELLENT Based on 32 reviews Posted on Google Jayne Livesey Jo was amazing from start to finish, she really listened to what we wanted. We are so glad we had the shots taken Jo had recommended of group and a few more staged of myself and the groom. Our album still has the relaxed documentary style we wanted. Guests commented on how relaxed they had felt with Jo and how she wasn’t instructive on the day. We love our photos and would definitely recommend her …. Mr & Mrs LiveseyPosted on Google Hebe Axon Jo has been our family photographer since 2019! Always goes above and beyond, she’s done newborn shoots to cake smash, mother and me, Christmas shoots, gender reveal and now our wedding!!! She’s the best 🤎Posted on Google Eleanor Linsley We've chosen Jo as our wedding photographer for 2024 however we did a pre wedding shoot with her a couple weeks ago. We were both a little nervous as we've never done a shoot before however Jo made us feel comfortable from the moment we started. We gave Jo a brief overview of our vision for the shoot and the photos came out perfect! They are beautiful and exactly what we were looking for. We're 1000% sure we chose the right wedding photographer and can't wait to have Jo there as part of the team on our big day!Posted on Google Samantha Johnston Jo was the photographer for our wedding back in February and we are absolutely blown away with our gallery! We both said the day after our wedding how great Jo was - she’s so fun and easy to get on with, it really was like having a mate there with us. Like most couples, we’ve never had professional photos taken of us. Jo gave directions on what to do yet it didn’t feel awkward or like we were being watched, we really were so relaxed and comfortable in her presence, we can’t thank her enough. I would 100% recommend Jo to anyone needing a wedding photographer, I never normally use this word but she really was fabulous - thanks Jo!xxPosted on Google Adenike Adeyemi I m glad I chose Jo to shoot my maternity session. Very lovely human and highly professional.Posted on Google Ali C What can I say about Jo... from the get go I knew I made the right decision contacting Jo. She is friendly, fun, so warm and makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera. Her style is modern, classic but so on trend as well (smoke bomb anyone?!) I cannot wait to see our photographs. Thank you so much Jo - would totally recommend to anyone wanting a discreet, modern, stylish, cool and professional photographer!Posted on Google Jessica Bedford Jo was the photographer at our wedding and she was absolutely wonderful! Our wedding was a fairly relaxed day and she just slotted right in from helping the bridesmaids get ready in the morning to chatting with the guests throughout the day all whilst taking the most beautiful photos that really captured the atmosphere of the occasion! The photos we received and the way they were presented was just perfect. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer.Posted on Google Iona Orchard We have used Jo a number of times for family photoshoots & we are lucky to have her booked as our wedding photographer. Jo is one of the nicest people you'll meet, laid back & extremely easy to get along with. She makes you feel at complete ease and just knows how to take THE best photos. We are always extremely impressed with the results. I wouldn't use anyone else but Jo, I would definitely recommend her 🙂Posted on Google Stuart Gornall My partner had a couple's photograph package bought for her birthday and I cannot say enough good things about Jo. She picked a venue for the shoot expertly, her friendly and professional manner was superb for someone who is not comfortable in front of the camera. Jo made us feel at ease with her humour and style and I would recommend her services to anyone. Thanks Jo.
