Specialist wedding photographer based in Eastleigh, Carly creates natural, candid images that tell your story. Calm, fun and emotive — I capture the real moments and your vibe.
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Eastleigh who puts natural emotion and storytelling first, you’re in the right place. I’m Carly Wild and wedding photography is my core passion — I specialise in candid, relaxed coverage that honours the laughter, the little in-between moments and the full-on tears of joy. My approach is simple: I blend into your day so you can be yourself. I shoot in a natural, documentary-led style with a splash of ‘artsy farsty’ for those beautiful portraits you’ll love on your wall. Over the years I’ve refined the way I find those honest moments — the look across the room, spontaneous hugs, and the unscripted silliness on the dancefloor. My aim is always the same: freeze memories that feel real and that you’ll return to for years to come. Why choose me? Because I care about your story. I come from a background working with film and darkrooms, and I still hunt for the feeling in a frame more than anything. I see myself as a memory-capturer — not just someone who takes pictures. I love beach ceremonies, sunlit forests, and floral-filled venues, but I also thrive in the smaller, quirkier moments of a laid-back celebration. Couples often tell me they felt relaxed and at ease — that’s the vibe I build from the first chat through to the last dance. Working with me is friendly and uncomplicated. We’ll meet for a coffee (or a virtual chat) so I can learn about you and your plans. On the day I’m steady, supportive and ready to help — whether that’s finding a lovely light spot, calming morning nerves, or capturing the confetti mayhem. After the wedding you’ll receive a beautifully presented online gallery so family and friends can view, download and share your favourite moments. Professional wedding albums and printed keepsakes are also available if you want to transform your images into heirlooms. Based in Chandler’s Ford, Eastleigh, I cover Southampton, Hampshire, Bournemouth and the surrounding areas. If you want natural, emotive wedding photos that feel like you — let’s chat and see if I’m the right fit to capture your day.
