Rob Burress (Shootinghip) is a Bordon-based wedding specialist delivering storytelling, documentary-style images that feel natural and joyful. Portrait sessions available to complement wedding coverage.
Shootinghip is Rob Burress’s personal take on wedding photography: a storytelling, documentary-led approach delivered with warmth, humour and an eye for beautiful light. Based in Bordon, Rob specialises in wedding photography across Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex and London, working with couples who want images that feel real rather than staged. His work focuses on the little moments that make a day feel alive — the nervous laugh in the morning, the tear on the aisle, the wild dancing after dark — all captured with sensitivity and style. Why choose Rob? His reputation as a recommended photographer at a range of venues comes from consistent, thoughtful imagery and an easy, professional manner on the day. He aims to blend into your wedding so guests relax and behave naturally; that relaxed atmosphere produces the genuine smiles and spontaneous interactions that define his portfolio. Whether your wedding is a rustic barn, a country house or an urban reception, Rob composes images that tell the story of the day — from bridal detail to family moments and the unpredictable joy of the evening. What makes his approach special is a focus on storytelling and people. Rob combines documentary instinct with considered portraiture: when a quieter, composed image will serve the story, he’ll create it — but always with speed and minimal fuss. His editing favours timeless tones and clarity, keeping the emotion and atmosphere at the centre of each frame. He values collaboration with couples and suppliers, and brings experience working at many local venues to help plan smooth timelines and strong results. How he works: Rob begins with a friendly conversation to understand your plans and priorities. On the wedding day he keeps things calm, unobtrusive and flexible, stepping in for portraits when needed and otherwise capturing moments as they unfold. After the wedding you receive a curated collection of images that reflect the mood and narrative of your day — images you’ll return to again and again. While weddings are his primary focus, Rob also offers complementary portrait work to provide relaxed engagement or family sessions that sit naturally alongside wedding coverage. If you want wedding photography in and around Bordon that feels authentic, joyful and crafted with care, Shootinghip brings experienced, personable expertise to your day.
