warm, gentle, emotive
cotswolds wedding photographer
capturing authentic moments & genuine emotion, naturally
You WaNT
photographs that feel real.
moments that unfold naturally.
Images that show the joy, fun & emotion of your day
...without turning your wedding in to a photoshoot.
That's exactly what I do.
what's it like to have me at your wedding?
I bring a calm, reassuring presence, quietly documenting the moments that matter :
The nervous excitement whilst getting ready
The look on your people's faces when they first see you
The hugs, the laughter, the happy tears...and the fun
The tiny moments you didn't even realise were happening
I step in gently and give natural direction when needed (for portraits, family photos and when I think you need a breather), but the rest of the time I let your day unfold naturally.
Let’s work together

We can't even begin to express our gratitude to Lara for the beautiful photos she took of our wedding. Despite our day containing every variation of weather possible, Lara capturing the most gorgeous pictures, both styled and candid shots that we will treasure forever.
Lara was such a joy to work with - her upbeat and cheerful personality can't help but make you smile, and her photographs beautifully captured the atmosphere of the day. She was also very mindful about when she asked us to step away for photos , so we could stay fully immersed in enjoying the celebrations. Thank you Lara, for everything!

We had an amazing day and would strongly recommend Lara for any special events.
Lara made us feel at ease the whole build up, which was a task in itself considering we swapped a calm Cotswolds to a hectic London location. On the day, very organised, very chilled , somehow managed to keep two kids under 6 in control and get some incredible and truly wonderful photos.
We received our photos a few weeks after the day and cannot stop looking at them, we're so impressed, and so glad we visited the wedding fair that day.
Thank you so much Lara!

We had the absolute pleasure of meeting Lara at our first wedding fare at The Bay Tree. We immediately clicked with Lara and felt at ease around her. Lara adapted to our disgracefully early start and was on the ball from start to finish. Everything was our choice and we never felt the "urgh more photos" part.
Lara fitted right in with our wedding crowd - we had such a laugh working with you and you were a pleasure to have as part of our day.
Our photos are absolutely incredible, they're beautifully taken and we can spend hours looking through them. Thank you for capturing the most incredible day of our lives so far.

Lara did a fantastic job keeping us at ease. We are definitely not people who like being the centre of attention but she made us feel so relaxed whilst having photos. She took lots of lovely natural photos and we received them really quickly after the wedding at a high standard. We were recommended Lara through the Manor House Hotel, and she did not disappoint! She knew the venue well and all the best spots for photos. Would definitely recommend :)
LAURA & LEWIS
Lara photographed our wedding in March 2026 and was incredible. I couldn't recommend her more. My husband and I aren't the most natural in front of the camera so we were a bit nervous for the photos but she put us at instant ease. We also had our 2 year old son and 3 year old labrador with us so it was quite chaotic at times, however Lara was professional and patient throughout the whole day. Photos are incredible and we can't wait to get the printed.
