Ellie Ferreira Photography

Based in Bury St Edmunds, I specialise in wedding photography with a natural, relaxed and fun approach. My background in film and a lifetime growing up around family photographers taught me to love the tiny unscripted moments — the laughter between vows, the stolen glances, and the glorious messiness that makes every wedding uniquely yours. I aim to tell your story honestly, creating wedding photos that feel real, timeless and full of heart. Why choose me? I photograph weddings in a documentary style that keeps things calm and unobtrusive. Rather than forcing poses, I look for genuine interactions and emotions, blending into the day so you and your guests can enjoy the celebration. Couples often tell me they felt instantly comfortable — my friendly, upbeat manner helps even those who dislike cameras to relax and be themselves. With attention to light, composition and timing, I capture both those big milestone moments and the small, candid scenes you'll want to remember forever. How I work: our process is all about making your experience easy and enjoyable. After you enquire we’ll have a relaxed chat in person or on Zoom to plan the day and get a feel for what matters most to you. About a month before your wedding I’ll send a short questionnaire so I don’t miss any key moments. On the day I stay present and flexible — I’ll organise quick group shots with your help, plan a short 15–20 minute couples session if you want portraits, then return to documenting the celebrations. I share a small preview soon after the wedding and deliver the full edited gallery within 4–6 weeks so you can relive the day and share it with loved ones. Although weddings are my core focus, I also offer relaxed couples sessions (engagement shoots) for those who want updated photos or practice in front of the camera before the big day. I cover Suffolk and nearby counties including Cambridgeshire and Norfolk, and I’m proud to bring a friendly, professional and personal touch to every booking. Photography is about memories that last generations. I’d love to hear about your plans and help capture the honest, joyful story of your wedding day.
