HideTidesMedia

HideTidesMedia is a Burntwood-based specialist in wedding photography, serving couples across Staffordshire and the West Midlands. With over ten years of experience, I focus on creating timeless, storytelling images that reflect the real emotion and atmosphere of your day. My work aims to preserve the laughter, the quiet looks and the spontaneous moments that make each wedding unique. Why choose HideTidesMedia? I combine a relaxed, affordable approach with professional technique and local knowledge. Working regularly throughout Burntwood, Staffordshire and the wider West Midlands means I know the best outdoor locations, light and timings to get beautiful portraits and natural scene-setting shots. My priority is always to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera so the genuine connection between you and your guests becomes the focus of the photographs. My photographic style blends documentary storytelling with carefully composed portraiture. I favour natural light and unobtrusive shooting so I can capture candid moments as they happen, while stepping in to create striking, timeless images when needed. Whether you want relaxed reportage of the day or elegant couple portraits at sunset, I adapt to the flow of the wedding and to what matters most to you. The process is simple and client-focused: an initial conversation to understand your wedding plans and priorities, clear communication leading up to the day, and a calm, professional presence on the wedding day itself. Engagement shoots are available to help build rapport and ease nerves before the big day — they’re a great way to practise together and create images you’ll love. While wedding photography is my core speciality, I also photograph portraits, families and maternity sessions, which can complement wedding collections for couples who want cohesive imagery across milestones. Above all, HideTidesMedia is driven by a passion for storytelling and the desire to give you photographs you’ll cherish for years. If you’re planning a wedding in Burntwood or the West Midlands and want a dedicated, experienced photographer who prioritises authenticity, get in touch to discuss your vision and how I can capture your day.
