Oxford wedding photographer and videographer
I’m Peter, an Oxford-based photographer and filmmaker. I shoot wedding photography and films across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and Berkshire, and I do my best work when nobody notices I’m there.
You get the ceremony, the speeches and the quiet minutes in between, without spending the day being told where to stand. Photos, film, or both, from the same person.
How I photograph and film weddings
Mostly invisible. I stay out of the way and let the day happen: the nerves before the ceremony, the changing light, the late-night party. I don’t stop people or direct the action.
Family groups, done quickly. You’ll still get the groups your families expect. I keep them quick and organised so you’re back at the party in minutes.
Photos, films, or both. Photography and film can be booked separately or together, and films are available for selected dates. The films are shot the same way as the photos, built from real voices, natural sound and movement. If you book both, there’s one person to brief, and the photos and film feel like the same wedding.
Watch a wedding film
Sound on. This is what a wedding film from me looks like: real voices, natural sound and the day as it happened.

Photography, films, or both together: pick what fits your day, then see where I work and what it costs.
Real weddings in Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds
Every wedding has its own pace: some calm and intimate, some loud and full of movement, most a bit of both. Here are three from Oxfordshire and the Cotswolds.
WORTON KITCHEN GARDEN
Roo and Rob married at Oxford Registry Office in the morning, then celebrated with a relaxed summer afternoon at Worton Kitchen Garden, bouquet toss included.
THE BAY TREE BURFORD
Phily and Matt married at The Bay Tree in Burford, in the Cotswolds, with a portrait session in the cobbled streets.
ISIS FARMHOUSE OXFORD
Patricia and Charlie celebrated at Isis Farmhouse, right beside the River Thames in Oxford. I photographed and filmed the day.
Hi, I’m Peter
I live on a narrowboat, which means reading changing weather and adapting on the fly is just part of daily life. I bring that same habit to a wedding: watching what’s actually happening and working with it, rather than trying to force a particular shot.
What full day coverage includes
Full day coverage starts with morning preparations and runs through the ceremony, reception and speeches into the evening. You receive over 500 fully edited images in a secure online gallery.
Photography can be booked on its own or with film on suitable dates. Photography starts from £1,950, films from £2,500, and photography and film together from £3,950.
A good fit for relaxed weddings
I suit couples who want to enjoy the day rather than run it. There are no hours of directed photographs and no long photo schedule pulling you away from your guests.
You’ll still get family groups and a short portrait session. The rest of the coverage follows what actually happens.
Photography and films across Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and beyond
I’m based in Oxford, so Oxfordshire, the Cotswolds and Berkshire are my home patch. I also travel regularly for weddings in Wiltshire and Somerset, and for films in Bristol and Cornwall.
Further afield across the UK is possible on selected dates. Send me your venue and date and I’ll tell you honestly whether it works.
Photography, film or both
You can book photography on its own, film on its own, or both together when the day allows it. Some weddings suit separate coverage and others a more compact combined approach, and I’ll recommend what works best for yours. There’s no fixed package to fit into.
Not sure which suits you? Send me your date, venue and rough timings and I’ll suggest one.

What couples say
“We wanted to spend the day enjoying every moment and not worry at all about getting the ‘right’ photo. It turns out that with the right photographer you don’t have to sacrifice either.”
“What really stood out was how perfectly he managed to reflect the personality, emotion, and atmosphere of the wedding in the final video.”
“He got some incredibly natural shots without us even knowing he was there. Even our guests commented on this.”
