You Probably

Hate

Having your photo taken

Most people do, and yet… here you are!

You’re not just looking for someone to take your wedding photos — you’re looking for someone who gets it.

I’m not just the girl with the camera. I’m the one holding your hand when the nerves hit just before you walk down the aisle. I’m quietly fixing that one rogue mascara smudge, tucking away them green exit sign in post, and making sure your veil is sitting just right.

I’ll match your energy (and raise it), cheer you on, carry your bouquet when needed, and absolutely drag people onto the dance floor if that’s what it takes to capture the real fun.

Because this isn’t just about pretty pictures… it’s about creating space for you to be fully present while I document every real, joy-soaked moment with a touch of elegance and a whole lot of heart.

Photographer. Hype Woman. Calm in the Chaos.

I’m a wedding photographer based in Manchester, but always up for an adventure across England. I’m your veil-flicker, lipstick checker, nerve-soother, and pro at getting you to laugh when it matters most.

My style? Light and airy with a true-to-tone twist — whites stay white, greens stay green, and everything feels soft, romantic, and real. I believe your photos should feel like you — just a little more magical and something you will still love when you look back in 10 years time. Think gentle direction, effortless posing, and the kind of candids you’ll treasure forever.

I live for the sneaky glances full of love, your gran wiping away a tear in the crowd, the kids jumping all over each other on the dance floor, these are the real moments with heart.

I'll guide you through it all with calm energy, a bit of sass, and zero awkward posing. Promise.

WORDS FROM MY COUPLES…

Carmen is an amazing photographer. She travelled all the way down South for our wedding and arrived early to make sure there was no stress or delays, just total professionalism from the moment she walked in.

She even visited us a few months before the big day for a friendly catch-up, which instantly put us at ease. From booking to planning, she stayed in touch and honestly felt more like a friend than a vendor. The photos made us cry in the best way, she captured everything we wanted and more.
-Alice & James

We were both super awkward and nervous about being photographed as I really do hate photos of me... until Carmen showed up with her calm energy, gentle guidance, and good banter. By the time the camera came out, we were laughing, relaxed, and honestly forgot we were being photographed. And the photos? Showed the true emotion and laughter we felt, it was like going for a walk with each other.
- Trcey & Anthony

Carmen is an amazing photographer. We had Carmen photograph our wedding at the end of December, and we’ve recently received all our photos, they are everything we wanted and more! From start to finish, Carmen captured every moment and every detail so beautifully. I would recommend her to everyone for any photography, she truly puts her heart and soul into it all. Carmen offered us a complimentary engagement photoshoot and kept in contact with us throughout the weeks leading up to the wedding with phone calls, Zoom meetings, and regular check-ins. I wouldn’t have anyone else do our photography for any future events, we have so much trust in Carmen.
- Hollie & Adam

I didn’t even know she was there half the time as i asked for it to be more candid than photos away, yet somehow she still captured every emotion, every detail, every person. my favourite photos of the day was our first dance, i didn’t realise how calm and beautiful our moment was until i looked about at them, thank you carmen!
