Curious Rose (Laura) is a Birmingham wedding specialist delivering relaxed, artistic and UNCRINGE wedding photography and engagement shoots. Expect authentic, timeless wedding photos with a connection-first approach.
Curious Rose is Laura Sawle — a Birmingham-based, specialist wedding photographer whose work marries documentary sensitivity with an artistic, relaxed eye. If you want a wedding day photographer who values honest emotion over forced poses, Laura’s connection-first approach puts people and relationships at the heart of every frame. She deliberately seeks the unpolished, perfectly imperfect moments that tell the true story of your celebration. Why choose Curious Rose for your wedding photography in Birmingham and beyond? Laura brings an artist’s curiosity and a decade of wedding experience to each commission. Her style is described across the site as UNCRINGE: natural, joyful, and quietly original. Whether your ceremony is an intimate pub gathering, a barn party, an art-gallery wedding, or a countryside celebration, Laura tunes into the pace and personality of your day — slow where needed, playful where it fits — to create images that feel genuine and enduring. What makes her approach special is the blend of documentary storytelling and subtle curation. Laura watches for the spontaneous glances, laughter, and ceremony that reveal real connection, then gently guides moments to ensure you also have beautiful portraits that capture your personalities. Her practice draws on movement, meditation and a curiosity about human psychology to help people feel at ease in front of the camera — even the camera-shy. How she works: from the first conversation through to delivery, Laura prioritises a calm, supportive relationship. Pre-wedding chats, planning calls and a relaxed presence on the day keep things simple and stress-free. Post-shoot, she delivers thoughtfully edited galleries that are designed to be printed, framed and shared — images meant to live in homes and albums, not just on screens. Though weddings are her primary focus, Laura’s background in portraiture and brand work enriches her wedding practice — giving her a confident eye for composition, light and personality. Based in Birmingham and with roots near the Malvern Hills, Curious Rose is the choice for couples seeking professional wedding photos with an artistic, authentic and uncringe approach.
