MICRO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN NOTTINGHAM

Your wedding love story, captured in TWO hours

(about the length of a good rom-com!)

Say “I do” with a micro wedding photography package

Micro weddings may be small in scale, but they’re big in meaning. Whether you’re planning a relaxed ceremony at Nottingham Council House, Bridgford Hall, or an intimate Nottinghamshire venue, my two-hour micro wedding coverage is available for weekday and weekend weddings.

As a Nottingham-based micro wedding photographer with over 15 years of experience, I focus on natural, timeless storytelling, photographing the genuine emotions, fleeting glances, and laughter that make your day unforgettable.

I’d love to create a collection of photos for you that will bring back all those special moments every time you look at them. If my natural style of wedding photography speaks to you, let’s chat.

For couples planning a larger celebration, you can view my full-day coverage as a Nottingham wedding photographer here.

Alison is an incredible photographer! She made us feel so calm, confident, and natural throughout our entire wedding day. I was looking for someone who could capture effortless, beautiful moments, and she exceeded every expectation. Thank you, Alison!

WHAT IS MICRO WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY?

Small wedding, same happy ending

Micro weddings are intimate celebrations with typically fewer than 30 guests, offering couples a perfectly tailored alternative to traditional all-day events. Some couples will have more guests attending but still only need 2 hours photography coverage, and the coverage is based on the time rather than the number of guests.

What I’ve learnt is that the magic of a wedding isn’t measured by its size but by those present. This was reinforced during one of my most memorable micro weddings, an intimate day with just three guests, yet it flowed with personality and emotion.

These smaller gatherings allow for a more personalised experience that truly reflects your vision and if this sounds like you, I’d love to hear from you.

HELLO, I’M ALISON

I’m a huge fan of rom-coms, so it’s no surprise I’m a wedding photographer.

I’ve been photographing weddings since 2009 and I love the smaller celebrations just as much as the big ones. My approach is relaxed and natural, with a mix of documentary moments and styled portraits that feel like you.

With a micro wedding, the coverage may be shorter, but you’ll still get the same personal service, experience and attention to detail as my full-day couples, just focused into the part of the day that matters most to you.

If you like my approach to photographing weddings, I’d love to hear from you.

Before we get to the confetti …

Everything you need to know about me photographing your small wedding.

2 hours of photography captures the key parts of your wedding and are shaped round what matters most to you, often varying depending how many guests you are having or if you’re having an elopement.

Some couples want just a handful of portraits and more time with their guests; others love the idea of making portraits a bigger part of the two hours. Either way, I’ll help you make the most of the time without the day feeling rushed.

Regardless of the size of your wedding or the duration, my style remains the the same – natural, documentary, candid, fashion-led. My editing follows the same principle, classic rather than trend-led.

Real Weddings

With nearly two decades of wedding photography experience, I know how to make the whole process feel straightforward from our first conversation through to your gallery delivery.

When your photography coverage is two hours rather than ten, timing matters. I’ll help you plan when coverage should begin so the ceremony, congratulations, family photographs and portraits all fit naturally without the day feeling rushed.

Wedding photography packages

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 Nottingham.

  • 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, of course, add additional hours if you wish. I’m always happy to work with you to photograph your wedding in Nottingham in a way that feels natural and relaxed.

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 the couple with a collection of personalised photos.
  • 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. or
  • booking a last-minute wedding photographer.
