What is Micro Wedding Photography?

Micro weddings are intimate celebrations with typically fewer than 30 guests, offering couples a perfectly tailored alternative to traditional all-day events. These smaller gatherings allow for a more personalised experience that truly reflects the couple’s vision.

I’ve had the pleasure of capturing these special moments, including a memorable celebration with just five guests in attendance proving that the magic of a wedding isn’t measured by its size but by those present.

The Look of Love


The quiet moments speak the loudest. Stolen glances and little touches only the two of you share.

Confetti Happiness


A confetti-filled blur of love, laughter and a moment that lasts a lifetime.

Natural Portraits


Even if posing isn’t your thing, I’ll make you feel with no awkward smiles.

  • Online password-protected gallery to share with friends.
  • Pre-wedding consultation to discuss your wedding plans.

What will a 2-hour wedding photography package cover?

Below is a guide as to how 2 hours of photography coverage works if you are having a civil ceremony in Cheltenham.

  • Arrival at the venue 30 minutes prior to the ceremony to capture you and your guests.
  • 30-minute ceremony.
  • 1 hour of photos at the venue following your ceremony.   With a smaller number of guests, this is usually plenty of time for couple portraits, family photos and/or candid photography of wedding guests.

You can add additional hours to this should you wish to. You tell me what parts of your wedding you would like covered and I will work with you so your day is photographed just the way you would like it.

Alison did the photos for my wedding – well, what an amazing lady. She has an eye for detail, is professional, and very passionate about her job. Alison was very patient with us as we changed the photos we wanted on the day and was she happy to accommodate us. I would 100% recommend Alison – lovely person, very professional, and an amazing photographer. Perfect person for a perfect day. Highly recommend.

5 Reasons why micro wedding photography could be for you

Micro wedding photography is suitable for many couples and whilst there are no set criteria as to who books shorter wedding photography coverage, it may work for you if you are:

  • only looking for a few hours of wedding photography coverage rather than all day;
  • having a low-key wedding with fewer than 30 guests in attendance;
  • eloping; A micro wedding photography package will focus closely on you as a couple with a collection of personalised photos.
  • booking a last-minute wedding photographer; or
  • want professional, high-quality photos without the full-day price tag. My micro wedding collection delivers the same high quality as full-day coverage, just with a more focused collection of images.
