Alternative, LGBTQ-friendly wedding photographer & videographer in Corby. Gem Wright is a hybrid shooter who captures bold, documentary wedding photos and cinematic films that feel authentic.
Hi — I’m Gem, an award-winning alternative wedding photographer and videographer based in Corby, proudly shooting joyful, colourful and unapologetically honest weddings across the Midlands and beyond. Weddings are my speciality: I’m a hybrid shooter who blends documentary-led wedding photography with cinematic wedding films so you get a cohesive record of your day — the tears, the mayhem, the dancefloor carnage and all the tiny secret moments you didn’t see. Why choose me? I pair a relaxed, non-traditional approach with an eye for drama: bold colours, deep contrast and an edit that gives your images punch and personality. I don’t do stiff posing or treat your wedding like a photoshoot. Instead, I stay close to the action, anticipating real moments and capturing them as they unfold so your gallery and film feel like an honest, emotional retelling of your best day ever. As an LGBTQ-friendly photographer and filmmaker I create a safe, inclusive space where every couple can be themselves. I’m known for being part-hype-squad, part-documentarian — friendly and energetic on the day, with the technical skill to deliver high-quality stills and video that stand the test of time. My hybrid workflow ensures your photos and film share a consistent style and storytelling rhythm, meaning your memories sit together perfectly whether you’re watching a highlights film or scrolling your gallery. How I work: we’ll start with a no-pressure chat about your plans, priorities and the vibe you want. On the day I keep things fun and fast for any hero couple shots so you can get back to celebrating, then sink into the documentary work — candid family moments, quirky details and the emotional beats that matter. I travel from Corby across the UK and internationally for the right celebrations, and I always aim to deliver a relaxed experience that leaves you with images and films that make you feel everything again. I also shoot engagement and couple sessions as part of my wedding offering — a great way to get comfortable in front of the camera and build a rapport before the big day. If you want an energetic, inclusive wedding photographer and videographer who celebrates love in all its forms, let’s do this.
