About Me – Hayley B

When you work with me, you’re not choosing a general photography service – you’re investing in a person.

Your wedding photographer should be someone who you’re happy to share one of the biggest days of your life with and who understands its importance to you as a couple.

While finding out more about my wedding photography style will help you to discover how I work and the experience you can expect, you may also want to know a little more about me – the person behind the camera.

Like any classic romance, the journey of my love affair with photography has been a mixture of fun, passion and hard work. Having earned an A level in Photography, I was lucky enough to work in a studio with the BIPP president (British Institute of Professional Photography). At just 18 years old, I shot my first wedding, and from that moment on, I knew this was the vocation for me. I even met my husband through the industry, and we now run a photography studio together.

Over the last 20 years, I’ve photographed hundreds of weddings, capturing everything from the touching moments which have you in tears to the surprises nobody expected, all while making the experience as effortless and fun as possible. I’ve even gained the nickname The Wedding Ninja thanks to my ability to move with stealth in the background, finding those candid shots which unveil the real story of the day.

I’ve worked in some of the most fabulous, stunning venues across the South East (I have to pinch myself sometimes!), as well as destination weddings which makes what I do all the more adventurous.

While there’s no greater reward for me than being able to preserve some of the most joyful moments of your day, it’s always nice to get recognition for the work I put into providing such a personal experience for my clients.
