Jan 4, 2026 | Round up 2025
Wedding Photographer in Dorset & Hampshire
It’s that wonderful time of year again; a chance to slow down, look back, and feel immensely grateful for the people and moments that have shaped the past 12 months. 2025 has been another year full of happiness, connection, and the kind of memories that remind me daily why I feel so lucky to do this job. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, to every couple, family and friend who trusted me to document such meaningful moments of their lives. Guys, I never take that lightly.
This year was packed with hilarious speeches, packed dance floors, singing waiters, brilliant weather (honestly, it barely rained!) many a dog pal and so many moments of quiet connection in between. I met an incredible mix of people – always kind, creative, funny, emotional… of course wildly in love – and every wedding brought its own magic. From intimate ceremonies to big, joy-filled celebrations, it’s been an absolute privilege to witness and capture so many stories.
In 2025 I photographed 40+ weddings once again, alongside stepping in as an associate photographer for a few lovely friends who, for medical reasons, were unable to shoot their own weddings. Being able to support them in that way felt really special, and it reminded me how strong and supportive the wedding community around me is and how lucky I am to be part of it. I’m endlessly thankful for the friendships that continue to grow with both couples and fellow suppliers; this industry really is built on collaboration and trust.
As ever, so much love goes to the venues that feel like second (and third) homes. My ongoing relationship with Clock Barn continues to mean the world to me. Being recommended there for the past ten years is something I’m incredibly proud of, and I’ll never stop loving that place and the wonderful team behind it. I hope to move in one day haha. I also continue to work closely with, and absolutely adore, Rhinefield House, which never fails to feel like home every single time I walk through the door. And this year brought some very exciting news: being added to the recommended supplier list at Upwaltham Barns which is such a beautiful venue, and I’m so thrilled to be working more closely with them going forward. Yessss please to more weddings at this fabulous venue!
Below I’ve chosen a favourite image from each wedding, plus a few extra moments that made me smile (can you spot you?!) Thank you for continuing to book me, recommend me and support me. Honestly, it means the world. This job is still my very favourite thing, and I feel unbelievably lucky to call this my work.
Here’s to more weddings, more love stories, and another year of doing what I love with the best people around. Roll on 2026!!!
With love always,
Mia xx

Dec 30, 2024 | Round up 2024
Hampshire & Dorset Wedding photographer
It’s that fabulous time of year again – when I get to pause, reflect, and express how truly thankful I am for the incredible couples, families, and friends who allowed me to capture their precious memories over the past 365 days. 2024 has been filled with utterly unforgettable moments, and I am deeply grateful for every single one of you who have put your faith and trust with me. This has been a year of hand painted wedding dresses, homemade cakes and, a particular highlight – watching Ani’s New Zealand family sing traditional Maori songs to everyone during the speeches. I also got to experience my first Hora with the bride and groom lifted on chairs in the air and all the fabulous madness of the dance floor.
This year, I had the honour of documenting 40+ weddings, and each photo has been a reminder of why I love this job and the incredible people I get to work with. As always, I’m incredibly thankful for the friendships that have blossomed with my couples and fellow wedding vendors and venues. Every single wedding is a collaboration, and I’m so grateful for the support and love shared by my talented photographer friends, wedding planners, florists, caterers, and everyone who works behind the scenes to make each day unforgettable. Particular shout out to Clock Barn, Rhinefield and Old Vicarage who have become my second homes and favourite places to shoot. I love being part of the team and count myself very lucky to have you all. One of the weddings previewed here was actually shot by my lovely friend Ange Ward-Brown, who thankfully stood in for me when I was really ill in hospital this year. Ange did an incredible job stepping in at the last moment to cover me, which reminds me again how grateful I am to have this wonderful community around me of lifelong friends who I know have my back and I theirs.
Below, I’ve picked a favorite from each wedding, plus a few extra gems (can you spot yourself in the mix?) Thank you for continuing to book me year after year – this job is my very favourite thing and I truly can’t imagine doing anything else. More weddings, more love stories, please!!
A big shout-out to all my fellow wedding photographer friends and vendor buddies who work tirelessly to make each celebration perfect. Here’s to another year of collaboration, love, and memories. Cheers to you, and roll on 2025!
With love always,
Mia xx
Jan 4, 2021 | Round up 2020
Every year around January, I love looking back and reflecting on all the previous years’ gorgeous weddings and putting together a little blog post of my favourite photos. Although 2020 was a strange year and in no way went to plan, I was still lucky enough to photograph 7 wonderful weddings which absolutely helped keep me sane and happy.
I won’t bang on about all the heartbreak of 2020 because we all know how awful most of it was, so instead I’ll celebrate this absolute bunch of babes and their determination to prove that love always wins and no horrible virus can put a dampener of their joy.

May 31, 2019 | May 2019, The Old Vicarage
Lauren & Alex’s wedding at The Old Vicarage in Dorset was one of those weddings where I just wished I’d been a guest! Everything was just so damned cool AND beautiful, which is an unusual and winning combination in my eyes. The bride wore a blue, yes BLUE wedding dress, with delicate pink flowers sewn in and possibly the sparkliest pair of heals I’ve ever seen.
Lauren and her gals got ready at The Kings Arms Hotel in Christchurch before arriving in style to The Old Vicarage in some cool vintage cars, generously loaned by some friends. Although it rained most of the day, this gorgeous pair didn’t let it dampen their spirits, even when it meant they couldn’t get married outside like they’d hoped. The best thing about The Old Vicarage is that, even if you are unlucky with the weather, the ceremony room with it’s huge stag head it just as wonderful as the great outdoors, so nothing was really lost. And with Willow & Wisps‘ glorious fauna, it looked as if the outside was inside anyway.
After the ceremony the rain suddenly stopped so we ran outside like crazy people to take some couples shots and the family photos, enjoying the lush and colourful gardens. A delicious BBQ and speeches followed, before the evening party kicked off with a hilarious dancing game, which made for some absolutely awesome photos!
Thank you so much lovelies, I had a blast!! Thank you for having Holly and I along – some of these photos are hers.
