We adapt our style to the person in front of us, gentler with the shy and looser with the lively, so nobody is asked to be someone they are not.

We have been at this since 2001, and in that time we have covered well over a thousand weddings, which means very little on a shoot day surprises us now.

What we photograph in Potters Bar

From weddings to headshots

Potters Bar is a leafy commuter town on the London and Hertfordshire boundary, ringed by green belt. Whether you prefer the studio in Northwood, your garden, a local park or a business premises, we photograph clients right across Little Heath, South Mimms and Brookmans Park. We photograph the arrival of a first child, the party for a first birthday and the group shot at a christening, keeping the day's small moments as well as the big ones.

We photograph weddings of every tradition, from a classic church service to a multi day Asian celebration, as well as engagements, christenings and family milestones. We are asked to photograph maternity bumps, sleeping newborns, giggling one year olds and grandparents holding a new arrival, often for the same family across the years. You may want a formal set of family portraits or a loose session in the park, and we are happy with either, matching the mood to your family.

Headshots for professionals and actors, branding and product photography for businesses, and coverage for corporate events keep our commercial diary full through the week. We photograph corporate away days, conferences and launch nights, produce headshots and branding sets, and shoot product ranges for the businesses that book us across the year. For Potters Bar and companies like it we photograph headshots, events and product ranges, and we also restore old prints and produce passport and visa photos on request.
