Stellallevaphotography

I specialise in wedding photography from my base in Camden Town, bringing an artistic, storytelling approach to every celebration. Photography for me is about more than beautiful pictures — it’s about capturing the small, intimate moments that tell the real story of your day: the glance, the laugh, the quiet between vows. My background in painting and formal studies in photography inform an aesthetic eye for composition, colour and light, while my years working across London and Italy have taught me how to move quietly through a wedding and find the moments that matter. Why choose me? I aim to be both present and unobtrusive: gently directing when a composed portrait will create a lasting image, and otherwise working as an ‘absent presence’ to preserve spontaneous emotion. Couples tell me they value my calm, easygoing manner — I’m there to put people at ease, to listen to what you want from your images, and to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera so your true selves can shine. My wedding work balances candid reportage with considered portraiture. I love documenting the atmosphere and details — from the ceremony’s emotion to the joyful energy of the reception — while also creating portraits that feel timeless and true to who you are. Engagement shoots and bridal portraits are a natural extension of that approach, offering an opportunity to build trust and creative direction before your wedding day. Working with me is collaborative and relaxed. I take time to understand your vision, the moments you care about most, and the look and feel you’d like for your photographs. On the day I focus on capturing authentic expression and beautiful light, always with respect for the flow of your celebration. After the wedding I apply careful editing to deliver images that reflect the emotion and aesthetic of the day. Based in Camden Town and happy to travel across London and the UK, I bring passion, an artistic eye and a genuine love of people’s stories to each wedding I photograph. If you’re looking for a photographer who prioritises warmth, honesty and strong visual storytelling, I’d love to hear about your plans and how we can create memories you’ll cherish for a lifetime.
