Fun, colourful wedding photography and films from Formby-based Rach. Specialist in relaxed, documentary wedding days—no cheesy poses, just honest, joyful photos and a 3–5min highlight film.
Hi—I’m Rach (Rachel Burt) and I make joyful, colourful wedding photos and films for couples who want to do their day their own way. Based in Formby, I’ve been shooting weddings since 2017 and have photographed hundreds of celebrations across the UK. If you want a photographer who feels less like a stiff supplier and more like a guest who takes badass photos, you’re in the right place. Why choose me? I’m obsessive about real emotion. My work is bold, colourful and authentic—not staged or cheesy. I specialise in relaxed, documentary wedding photography paired with fun highlight films that bring your day back to life. I love festival-style, alternative and totally personalised weddings, and I’m at my happiest capturing the messy confetti, the terrible dance moves, the belly laughs and the proper-cry wedding moments. My approach is simple: I get to know you, I listen to what matters, and I make sure you’re comfortable. I’m great with camera-shy couples—most of my couples tell me they hate having their photo taken, and by the time the day comes they’re relaxed and actually enjoy the couples photos. I use playful prompts and a chilled, conversational style so nothing feels forced. Think of me as the friend at your wedding who’s constantly pointing a camera in the right direction. I offer both photography and wedding films (my most popular package combines the two). My highlight films—carefully edited to your soundtrack—are designed to make you laugh, cry and relive the best bits. I regularly work with an awesome second shooter so we can catch the ceremony, reactions and party from every angle without missing a beat. How we work together: we’ll start with a proper chat (email, WhatsApp or Zoom—whatever suits you). If you’re nervous about photos, an engagement shoot is a brilliant way to practice and get comfy. On the day I stay unobtrusive, focusing on documentary moments but also carving out relaxed time for portraits you’ll actually love. After the wedding you’ll get sneak peeks, then a beautiful online gallery and options to print or design a bespoke album. I’m proud to be inclusive, values-driven and a massive lover of colour, craft beer and all things joyful. If you want wedding photos and films that actually feel like you—fun, colourful and full of feeling—let’s chat. I can’t wait to hear about your plans.
