I believe in the grey area.

Life is short and long but always “this too shall pass”.

That’s why I love photography for capturing the immediate and ephemeral.

There is poetry to be found in the fleeting and the messy, and I look for beauty in the chaos.

I also know that there is future nostalgia around the people and places in the images of important moments of your life.

It’s an art to capture the emotions and complex connections of family and friends. It’s a privilege to do the capturing so you can enjoy those times.

I was born in Singapore and since then I’ve travelled to 56 countries and lived in 8 different cities.

I have always taken my trusty Canon with me wherever I went and I now want to explore my homeland in the same way.

I enjoy creating unique images of unique individuals and buildings, creating Art from the everyday.

  • We were delighted with our wedding photos by Ellie, they were everything we wanted and more.

    Ellie listened to what we wanted and added her professional opinion and guidance throughout. Ellie managed to capture all of the special moments of us, our children and guests, balancing beautiful posed shots with those lovely little moments you often miss when you are the bride! Our photos were of a great quality and I would definitely recommend Ellie.

  • Ellie was a great photographer

    Ellie was a great photographer for guests to work with at our wedding in Ledbury Rugby Club Pavilion Rooms. She produced a superb gallery of photographs. If you want somebody to produce quality results on time and to budget we would recommend Ellie.

  • Ellie did an amazing job at our wedding.

    She captured the day exactly as we asked her too with natural photos and a few group pictures. The quality of the pictures are exceptional. I'd highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding day

    -Tracy

  • What can I say, the best photographer we could ever have hoped for.

    Ellie was the fab from start to finish. Her attention to detail is amazing, she reads the crowd, takes the pictures in the best locations. If you are looking for a photographer do not hesitate and book Ellie. The photos were shared via a link afterwards so quickly given the effort and time that she had put into them. Thank you again Ellie.

    -Nicola

  • We had the most fabulous time with Ellie on a small group photoshoot.

    Not only is she a very talented photographer, super responsive and creative, but also the most joyful and warm-spirited person that you will take delight in hanging out with. The shoot was great, we had lots of fun doing some natural outdoor shots, and tonnes of beautiful photos afterwards to remind us of a memorable afternoon.

FAQs about Ellie’s Cotswolds wedding photography

How much does a Cotswold wedding photographer cost?

Wedding photography varies according to the length of coverage, the photographer’s experience and what is included. I offer flexible coverage so couples aren’t forced into paying for more photography than their wedding actually needs. My standard hourly rate is £150 per hour.

Contact me with your date and venue and I can recommend the right amount of coverage.

Do you photograph weddings throughout the Cotswolds?

Yes. I’m based in Tewkesbury, Gloucestershire and photograph weddings throughout the Cotswolds and surrounding counties.

Do you photograph small Cotswold weddings?

Absolutely.

Some of my favourite weddings are smaller celebrations. A wedding doesn’t need 150 people to deserve beautiful photography, and shorter coverage can work particularly well for intimate ceremonies.

What’s the best time of year for a Cotswold wedding?

There really isn’t one.

Spring blossom, long summer evenings, autumn colour and atmospheric winter light all create completely different photographs.

The best season is the one that suits the sort of day you want.

Can we have natural photographs rather than lots of posing?

Yes — that’s at the heart of the way I photograph weddings.

We’ll still make time for the important family photographs and some relaxed portraits of the two of you, but most of your gallery will come from what genuinely happens during the day.

Are you available for weddings at Cripps Barn and other Cotswold venues?

Yes. I photograph weddings across Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds and am happy to travel to venues throughout the region
