Editorial Wedding Photography / Inspired by Art and Fashion


I’m Sam – a wedding photographer inspired by the worlds of art, fashion, and human connection. My work blends documentary observation with editorial styling, creating imagery that feels intentional, elegant, and deeply personal.

Every wedding tells its story through design, emotion, and atmosphere. I look for the balance between those – the way light falls, fabric moves, and moments unfold – capturing it all with a fashion-inspired eye.

I operate from my own creative space in the heart of Derby; Brickwork Studio, and also run Another Idea, a podcast and YouTube channel that celebrates and discusses the creative industry.

For couples who value atmosphere, emotion, and effortless style.


My work is driven by a simple intention:

I want to create images that make you feel like you were there, even if you weren’t.

Images that don’t just show how a moment looked, but how it felt.

I want to create photographs that stop you in your tracks – that feel like art; open to interpretation, inviting you to linger.

I want to capture your guests not just as attendees, but as characters – their personalities, their laughter, their emotion.

For me, photography has always been as much about the process as the final image – about connection, observation, and the joy of creating something honest and lasting.

Each wedding is a new canvas, shaped by light, movement, and emotion, and my role is to stay present, respond intuitively, and let the story unfold.

I’ve been fortunate to work all over the UK, Europe and Internationally as a wedding photographer during the past decade, and more recently educating and mentoring like-minded photographers in the industry, or those looking to start a new career within photography.

“Sam excels at what he does. The way he throws himself into his weddings is completely unique and the results speak for themselves. As a planner, it’s exciting and comforting to know that Sam is on your wedding team. He’s friendly, supportive, gets the best out of people and doesn’t get in the way! You will never regret hiring Sam as your photographer.”
