Heartfelt / Creative / Honest Photography for Laidback Couples
Capturing beautiful wedding memories in Jersey
Let’s create magic
Let me tell you a story…
A tale of two eleven year olds. Definitely not a childhood romance. Polar opposites, musical rivals (ha!). He had pink hair and a love of Nirvana. She was an honorary Gallagher, complete with an ultra cool Kangol hat (cringe).
Little did Sophie and Dean (that’s us!) know that, many moons later, they would find each other again at the school reunion of all places and - just like in all the best stories - fall in love.
It turns out that our ‘happy ever after’ was just the beginning. Six years on, Matilda and Frankie have joined the gang along with Bella the cat. Together we are the Darwins. And we love love!
Now, let us tell your story…
Wedding photography for the free spirits
You want the real moments captured. The inbetween. The chaos of the dancefloor, the intimacy of your ceremony. The squeeze of a hand, a shared joke.
For us it’s all about catching emotions, atmosphere and personalities in our laid back style. For most of your day we’ll be in amongst the action. Documenting everything as it happens. Then, when the light is at its best, we’ll sneak you both away. We’ll get creative while you two take a moment to just...be. To embrace your first day as a married couple. To spend time together, away from the world. To take it all in.
Don’t worry, we won’t keep you for too long though. The dancefloor will be calling and we want to get right in the thick of the action!
Less awkward // more laughter
Like us, you firmly believe that weddings are celebrations, not photoshoots.
You don’t take the pomp and ceremony of a wedding too seriously, you are far too caught up in marrying the person you love!
We love that you care about the little details - the styling, the flowers, the cake - but we know that what really matters to you both is that you are surrounded by the people you love the most.
We’ll join you for the hustle and bustle of morning preparations, we’ll give you a smile of encouragement as you say your vows, we’ll cheer and whoop as you joyfully walk through a sea of confetti and we’ll throw a load of shapes on the dancefloor with you all!
Hey! Want to know a secret?
We’re not the most conventionally romantic of couples, and you might not be either. That’s ok! Weddings, like relationships, come in all shapes and sizes. However you choose to celebrate we can’t wait to be there with you. All that matters is that you marry the love of your life and have a bloody good time whilst doing it!
Like the sound of that?
Get in touch and let’s chat weddings!
Your story doesn’t end at your wedding…
You don’t get rid of us that easily!
We have stayed friends with our couples and it’s great to hear all about your antics. We adore seeing your family grow - whether that’s with furry friends or little humans - and there’s nothing we love more than catching up with you all to explore a beautiful corner of Jersey and capture some new memories.
Lovely words from couples
“Sophie makes you feel so special on the day and we are so happy with the photos”
QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
01We’d love to hang out with the Darwins! How do we book?
Ahh yay, thank you! We’re so excited to meet you!
Booking is easy, get in touch and let us know your wedding date. If we’re available then we’ll send over all the info you need.
02We are SO awkward in front of the camera, help!
Don’t worry! Every single couple tells us they hate having their photographs taken. That’s why we’ve developed such a relaxed and laid back style of photography. You just get to hang out with loved ones (and each other) while we take care of all the creative stuff. Nice and easy!
03How long after our wedding day will we receive the photographs?
We don’t want to do a rush job on your memories, these are the photographs you’ll look back on for years to come! We send over a sneak peek a few days after your wedding and then your full gallery will be ready for you within 12 weeks. We recommend sitting down with a glass of something nice and cold when you view your gallery!
04Do you travel for weddings?
We limit our travel throughout the year, we have a young family so taking time out to go and shoot a wedding abroad isn’t as easy as it used to be! Having said that though, we both love an adventure so why not get in touch, tell us about your plans and if we can make it then we would absolutely love to be there!
05Can we book in a pre-wedding shoot with you?
YES! We love getting to know you and a pre-wedding / engagement shoot is the perfect chance for us to meet up and have a good old chat.
If you’ve got somewhere special in mind for your shoot then we’ll join you there. If you’re open to ideas then we can take you on a tour of our favourite Jersey spots. Whether you’re looking for an urban shoot, or picture yourselves strolling down the beach or chilling out in the woods we’ll find the perfect location!
06Do we always get you both on our wedding day?
It all depends on what package you go for. If you’re planning a small wedding or elopement in which case I’ll leave Dean to fend for himself and I get to come and celebrate with you!
07Are you insured? What if your camera breaks?
We are fully insured and have plenty of backup equipment so you don’t need to worry about a thing.
