Emily Scotney Photography is a specialist wedding photographer based in Andover, dedicated to capturing the true story of your day. Emily approaches wedding photography with a documentary-led eye and a calm, unobtrusive presence, focusing on the small, honest moments that together create a meaningful, lasting record of your celebration. Her aim is to deliver professional wedding photos that feel both authentic and beautifully composed. What sets Emily apart is her commitment to storytelling. Rather than staging every moment, she watches for real emotion — laughter between guests, quiet glances during the ceremony, the energy of the dance floor — and frames these scenes with care. Bridal portraits are treated with equal attention: Emily blends relaxed, natural posing with a sense of light and composition that lets couples feel comfortable and look like themselves. Working with Emily is collaborative and relaxed. She begins by getting to know each couple — their priorities, the flow of the day, and any must-have shots — then offers practical guidance to help the timeline run smoothly without interrupting the celebration. On the wedding day Emily moves gently through the crowd, capturing candid interactions while stepping in for brief, natural portraits when the moment calls for it. This balanced approach ensures a comprehensive collection of images: reportage-style sequences, intimate couple portraits, and the details that make each wedding unique. Emily’s style suits couples who want wedding photography that prioritises emotion and honesty over heavy posing. Whether you’re planning a small church service in Hampshire or a larger reception nearby, she brings calm professionalism and an attentive eye for light and detail. Alongside weddings, Emily also offers engagement sessions and family photography as complementary services — helpful for relaxed pre-wedding portraits or documenting new chapters after the big day.
