Lauren Potter Photography

Lauren Potter Photography is a specialist wedding photographer based in Ashford, Kent, dedicated to capturing the true story of your wedding day. Lauren’s work focuses on honest, emotive imagery — she looks for the little, unscripted moments that reveal real connection: a whispered laugh, a parent’s steadying hand, the exact tilt of a smile. Her aim is to create a wedding gallery that feels genuine and timeless, images you will want to return to again and again. Lauren’s approach is calm, unobtrusive and documentary-led. On the day she blends into the background to record your celebration as it unfolds, stepping in when needed for meaningful portraits and family groupings. She balances reportage-style coverage with relaxed couple portraits that allow space for natural interaction — not stiff posing — resulting in wedding photos that feel both personal and polished. Her photographic style favours natural light and candid composition to preserve atmosphere and emotion rather than staged perfection. Working from Ashford gives Lauren a deep knowledge of Kent venues and local light, allowing her to plan coverage that fits your day and helps manage timing for portraits without interrupting the flow of the celebration. Before the wedding she spends time getting to know you: a phone call or meeting to talk timings, priorities and the feel you want for your images. That preparation ensures she’s ready to capture what matters most — whether that’s reportage of the ceremony, family connections, or creative portraits during golden hour. Clients appreciate Lauren’s friendly, unflustered presence and her ability to help couples feel comfortable in front of the camera. While wedding photography is Lauren’s primary focus, she also offers engagement and portrait sessions that complement wedding coverage and help couples relax together ahead of their big day. Every wedding collection is delivered with thoughtful editing, careful sequencing and a focus on storytelling so your final gallery reflects the personality and emotion of your celebration. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Ashford or across Kent who values authenticity, warmth and a documentary-led eye, Lauren Potter Photography specialises in creating meaningful, lasting wedding images that tell your story.
