Capturing your most intimate, candid moments with sensitivty

MY APPROACH

OUR VISION

I prefer to steer away from photography and editing trends and I stick to what I know stands the test of time. Authentic, one-of-a-kind imagery using natural light and neutral complimentary tones.

As dedicated as my team and I are to our artistry and work, we always put the happiness and experience of our clients first. We are well known for providing an outstanding high quality of communication and service. My client's experience from booking and beyond are just as important to me as the final photographs.

With over a hundred wedding enquiries that come in each year, there are always multiple key dates during summer season that I get enquiries for.  As one person, I couldn't say yes to them all.

I have always loved the idea of building a cohesive, friendly team to work with me so that If i was not personally available, we could still document more amazing weddings for lovely couples.

I’ve met and worked with many wonderful photographers since I started out so it was the easiest decision to chose who I could wholeheartedly trust to work with me and my couples.

My team have all worked alongside me to ensure they create the same brand of relaxed, beautiful photography and then your images are edited in house to match my natural signature style.

A look back on the last decade

2012

2014

2016

After years of dreaming about being a professional photographer, I took the plunge, bought a second hand DSLR and began technical training.

After two years, I had built up not only my kit bag, but my experience and had photographed over 25 weddings alongside other professionals. I created a basic website and took on my first wedding clients under my brand. 

Now four years into my five year plan to become a full time photographer, I doubled my wedding clients again, and began adding editorial shoots, babies and families to my photography portfolio and skill set.

2015

I got married! I had also doubled my wedding bookings, all while still working a 9-5 full time job in retail buying. I started to receive recognition for my wedding photography after becoming a finalist for 'Best Wedding Photographer' in The Wedding Industry Awards (TWIA). I also began advanced creative business training and met many of my industry friends and colleagues who continue to inspire me today.

2017

I now had my work featured on many top wedding blogs and magazines, as well as recognition for a second year for photography at TWIA.  'Shot by Philippa' was born this year, where I began to use all the skills from wedding photography and retail buying, to build a commercial photography business where I could focus energy into creating beautiful visuals for independent businesses to elevate their own brands. Wedding photography clients were still growing, and I began my remote product photography services.

2018

I QUIT MY 9-5!!
I began working with Luxury Florists, Events Agencies, Event Producers and Beauty Giants to deliver beautiful brand imagery as well as having my biggest year of weddings to date.

2019

After a whole year as a full time photographer, I couldn't be happier and things were still going from strength to strength. As wedding season began to slow down, I gave birth to my beautiful daughter :)

2020

2021

A slow start to the year but commercial work was back with a bang and come the summer, so were weddings. It was GLORIOUS and I was so happy to finally see so many of my lovely couples celebrate the best day of their lives. This was mostly a year of catching up and appreciating how lucky I was to do this job.

We all know what happened in 2020... A break from weddings allowed me time to find a team of talented photographers to work for my brand so that I could offer my services to more people. I raised money for charity offering my 'Doorstep Portraits' during lockdown(s). Thankfully, my remote product photography service really took off for luxury beauty brands, photographing product mailers for press and influencers.

2022

My family became complete as  my gorgeous son was born and life seemed so much more normal again. I've spent the year ensuring my clients have received a flawless service while photographing more weddings and families than ever before. I now look forward to all the fun and joy that 2023 will bring as I set myself new goals that balance the job that I LOVE with the magical madness of family life. 

What a year, eh?

Pop that bubbly!

Humble beginnings!

IN A NUTSHELL

I live in London with my two young children Eloise and Oxley and husband James. Everything I do, I do for them. We love to explore and travel, South Africa is next on the list.
I splurge on skincare and have been cheating on fashion with interiors as we have been converting two flats into our dream home. Cat lady. Cocktail of choice would be anything with gin.

I have made a conscious effort over the years to be as sustainable as possible, changing to eco UK Album suppliers as well as using recyclable packaging.

I am really proud to have now partnered with Ecologi, the UK's leading climate platform in tackling the impact of our carbon footprint and will be donating a % of all wedding and event bookings to preserving our world. A wedding will plant around 50+ trees and an event around 10+. 

Working together should not just be about preserving your memories, but protecting the ones we hope to make in the future. Together we can be part of the solution and I am grateful we can be on this journey together.
