Devon and Cornwall wedding photographer based in Exmouth. Harley Jaffar blends documentary, candid photography with analogue 35mm and Super 8 films to capture authentic wedding moments.
I’m Harley Jaffar — a wedding photographer and Super 8 videographer based in Exmouth, working across Devon, Cornwall and the wider UK. My work is rooted in documentary, candid photography: I aim to be the friend with a camera who blends into your day so you can live it, while I quietly record the small, true moments that make your wedding unique. Why choose me? I believe wedding photography should feel effortless and honest. I shoot with both modern digital cameras and analogue 35mm film, and I shoot Super 8 for couples who want a nostalgic moving-image memory. The mixes of formats give your wedding an unmistakable character — natural, tactile, and genuinely emotional. I’m drawn to authenticity over posed perfection; imperfection is often the thing that gives a photo or film its soul. My approach is gentle and observant. I’m there early, I learn the rhythm of the day, and I stay in the background so you and your guests can be yourselves. I focus on genuine emotion — those glances, nervous smiles, laughter and the spontaneous moments you didn’t plan but will want to remember. I also have an eye for detail: the styling, the light, and the little things that tell the story of your wedding. Working with me is straightforward and relaxed. Start by contacting me with your date and venue; I’ll aim to reply within 24 hours. From there we can meet in person or chat over the phone/FaceTime to discuss your plans and how you want your day documented. On the day I take a discreet, friendly role and produce images and film that feel like an honest record rather than a staged portfolio. I take pride in delivering work that can be treasured — digital galleries, printed photographs and evocative Super 8 films that bring your day back to life. Couples often tell me how my images let them relive the emotions they felt, and how guests loved having a photographer who felt part of the day rather than in the way. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Exmouth or across Devon and Cornwall who prioritises authenticity, artistry and a calm presence, get in touch and let’s talk about your day.
