Documentary wedding photographer in Ashford, Kent. Emma captures natural, in‑the‑moment photos with a relaxed, friendly approach. Engagement shoots offered.
Emma Collyer is a specialist wedding photographer based in Ashford, Kent, known for a documentary, fly-on-the-wall approach that honours the honesty of your day. Her work is elegant and timeless with beautiful warm tones, but what truly sets Emma apart is her focus on capturing the small, unguarded moments that carry real meaning — the stolen glances, the laughter between friends, the quiet tears. Why choose Emma? She isn’t a stranger on the day; she’s the calm, friendly presence who mingles with your guests and helps everyone feel at ease. Emma’s style is deliberately unobtrusive: she takes a step back, lets the day flow, and trusts that the best photos are the ones created when people are simply being themselves. Couples consistently tell her she felt like a friend on the day — someone who helped calm nerves and allow authentic moments to unfold. Emma’s process is warm and personal. From your first conversation she emphasizes connection and understanding so your wedding photography feels like a natural fit. She listens to what matters to you, adapts to your comfort level — whether you favour pure candid coverage or want a handful of relaxed portraits — and works quietly to tell the story of your wedding in images you’ll want to live with for years. While wedding photography is her core expertise, Emma also offers engagement shoots and collaborates with MAC Videography (her husband) for couples who want both photo and film. The combined husband-and-wife team is experienced, award-recognised on the film side, and happy to coordinate so your visual memory of the day is cohesive and personal. Emma is rooted in Ashford and the Kent wedding scene but travels across the UK and beyond for ceremonies and celebrations. Her passion for personal development and love of genuine connection inform every shoot — she cares about the people in front of her lens and about crafting images that tell a true story. If you want naturally beautiful wedding photos that feel honest, relaxed and full of feeling, Emma Collyer is a specialist wedding photographer in Ashford who will capture your day with warmth, discretion and a storyteller’s eye.
