Hey! I'm Gavin, a creative documentary wedding photographer from Bristol!
Firstly It is awesome to meet you, I might be a wedding photographer in Bristol however I also capture weddings all over the UK and further afield. A wedding to me is like a gigantic memory album, an album that contains mini stories of the wonderful people that you love. Each photograph forms part of this story and each picture is captured in an honest and authentic way. A style that blends natural, yet artistic, documentary wedding photography. I want to show your granny 'resting her eyes' and that mad best friend falling over after going heavy on the sauce! I ultimately wanto to capture the true personalities of everyone involved in the wedding day.
What about the non-photographer me. I love bow ties, music, red wine & photographing faces! I used to work at sea, but now live with my amazing partner, and our two cats, Mungo & Tinks (who are sick of having their photos taken) in the town of Clevedon near the city of Bristol.
When I am not playing wedding photographer, you will most likely find me cycling over Clifton Suspension Bridge, kitchen dancing or paddle boarding; listening to Cat Stevens on my vinyl player or taking a selfie in Clevedon Marine Lake. I love shooting street photography especially around the Bristol suburb of Stokes Croft. Finally I love all things art, foreign cinema and music - Bristol is insane for gigs!

Bristol wedding photography + films in an artistic, unobtrusive, documentary style
Wedding photography or documentary films should be natural, beautiful & honest stories of the day! You wont see me creating moments for the camera, or distracting yourselves & your guests from enjoying the wedding day. I also wont get in the way with obtrusive equipment. You will see me busting moves on the dancefloor and photographing all the mini moments in between.
All photographs will tell personal stories, shot in an artistic and authentic way, I will enter as your chosen photographer but leave as a good friend who has just documented your amazing wedding day. I don't just shoot wedding photography around Bristol, as I also I travel the whole of the UK working as a wedding photographer and also shoot a few destination weddings per year too. Contact me now and I'll be there rocking out on the wedding dancefloor with my camera and dancing shoes.

"an absolute dream of a wedding photographer"
Steven + Mary // Wedding
Gavin was an absolute dream of a wedding photographer. We wanted someone that could capture the essence of our day without being in our face and he really delivered on that. He also produced a humdinger of a wedding album, he must have taken so much time to make the photos look as spectacular as they did. His talent as a photographer, coupled with his personality makes him the perfect choice. If you're umming and ahhing, don't do so for too long. This man is going places
"Wow!!
what an amazing talent!"
"Wow... what an amazing talent! Gavin makes you feel at ease and you don’t even realise he’s there most of the time! Such natural shots and he takes the perfect shot in a split second, I never once felt I was posing for a photo which is exactly what we wanted. Highly recommend!! I can’t stop looking at them! X"
Nick + Aileen (Wedding)
"He Loves a laugh...
...All we did all
day was howl"
Richard + Victoria // Wedding Couple
"Gavin's work is nothing short of art. An amazing wedding photographer who really captures the feeling of your wedding day without intruding at all! He loves a laugh, which was good because all we did all day was howl.
We couldn't recommend him highly enough and we are so grateful to have found him. keep doing you Gavin!

There are so many incredible places to get married. Right in the centre you have the M-Shed, Bristol Museum and Art Gallery, and Goldney Hall.
