Hey I’m Polly
Cambridgeshire Wedding Photographer
I’m the nutter behind the lens… a mama to my own little crew – two small humans, plus my furry sidekicks Reggie the Cocker Spaniel and Tango, the OG boss cat!
When I’m not shooting people (with a camera, obviously!) or rushing to the school gates, you’ll usually find me at the gym lifting weights, cooking up something delicious, getting outdoors, or planning my next spontaneous adventure.
I absolutely love being outside, whether that’s hiking, mountain biking, exploring the coast, chasing sunsets, sitting around a fire pit, gardening, or getting stuck into a DIY project. I’m not very good at sitting still… but when I do, you’ll usually find me watching a gripping drama series or bingeing a true crime documentary, trying to work out who did it before the ending!
Where it all began… I’ve always been creative. As a child I was constantly painting, drawing and making things – anything arty. Fast forward to graduating in Media Production at university, I decided to take the leap and start my own photography business. After having children, I pushed myself to take it to the next level and build the business I truly dreamed of.
I’m also super energetic, and I bring that energy into every wedding day. I will give absolutely everything I have to documenting your day and making sure you have the best time possible while doing it. I work quickly, calmly and with confidence, bringing hype-woman energy when you need it, problem-solving when things get stressful, and helping everyone feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera.
My number one priority on your wedding day is making sure you actually enjoy it. No awkward posing. No taking over the day. Just genuine moments, loads of laughs, and someone who blends in like a guest with a camera.
After 13+ years photographing weddings, I still feel ridiculously lucky to do this for a living. When people describe me, they usually say I’m fun, quirky, energetic, spirited, playful, laid-back, trustworthy and approachable… and honestly, I’d say that’s pretty accurate!
I’m not here to be liked by everyone – just the right people. If you hate being photographed, I might just be the right photographer for your day! Drop me a WhatsApp or Email and lets have a chin-wag about your plans!

DOPAMINE SEEKER
My ADHD brain thrives on creativity, spontaneity, and bold, impulsive ideas… I hold a full bike licence & once jumped 14,000ft out of a plane – because life’s too short to be ordinary!
My approach
For couples who prefer dancing over posing.
I try to avoid overly posed shots, instead focusing on real emotion and spontaneous moments that make every story unique and every wedding feel authentic. The best moments happen when people relax and stop worrying about the camera.
It’s all about capturing things as they unfold… unfiltered, natural and real, creating photography that feels like YOU!
I don’t believe in doing things just because “that’s how wedding photography is done.” I’m always looking for beautiful light, fresh perspectives and creative ways to tell your story.
After photographing weddings for over 13 years, I’ve learned that the best photos come from letting you enjoy your day, not spending it posing for the camera. My approach is simple…
Most of your day is captured naturally as it unfolds. No constant posing or interruptions, just genuine moments and honest storytelling.
Family photos are planned in advance, then captured quickly and efficiently, so you can get back to enjoying your day.
Just 10 minutes away from your guests is all we need to create beautiful, natural portraits that feel authentically you.
