Lee Waymont Photography

If you want your wedding photographed as a story rather than a checklist, I’m Lee Waymont — a Canvey Island–based wedding specialist who puts emotion and atmosphere first. My approach is relaxed, unobtrusive and people-led: I arrive at Bridal HQ ready to capture the nervous excitement of the bridal madhouse, then mingle amongst your guests to catch those cheeky grins, bear hugs, belly laughs and the lumps-in-the-throat moments that make each day unique. My aim is simple: to tell the story of your day. I don’t spend the afternoon arranging endless stiff group shots or making you pose around a tree. Instead, I keep things natural and flowing so you can enjoy the bubbly while I document it. When a moment is genuine it photographs beautifully — that’s what I look for all day, from the fine details of preparation to the emotion of the ceremony and the electric buzz of the first dance. Every image is carefully and individually edited in my signature style and delivered via a private online gallery, so you can relive your wedding while you’re still on honeymoon. Guests can view, share and order prints, and I prepare Instagram- and Facebook-ready images so your highlights are social-media friendly straight away. For couples who want something tactile, I also design bespoke photobooks and craft albums to your exact specification, presented beautifully when they arrive. I offer bespoke quotes to suit weddings of every size — from intimate daytime ceremonies to full-day celebrations and destination events across Essex, London and the Home Counties. While weddings are my primary focus, I also photograph relaxed engagement and family sessions and cover events when required — always bringing the same friendly, unobtrusive style. Working with me is straightforward and informal. I’ll chat through your day, explain how I work, and make sure you’re comfortable with the plan so photography becomes part of the day — not an interruption.
