Will Stedman Photography

I specialise in wedding photography in and around Godalming, bringing a calm, documentary-led approach to every wedding day. My aim is simple: to create professional wedding photos that feel natural, timeless and true to you. I focus on collecting the little moments and the big emotions that together tell the story of your day — without forcing poses or interrupting the flow. My work is driven by a love of authentic moments. I blend unobtrusive observation with thoughtful direction when it’s needed, so couples can relax and be present while I record the atmosphere, gestures and laughter that make each wedding unique. I favour a clean, understated aesthetic that places people and emotion at the centre of every frame, resulting in images that work beautifully now and for years to come. Working with me is collaborative and straightforward. I take time to understand what matters to you — whether it’s family groupings, documentary storytelling, or a few portraits that reflect your personalities. On the day I aim to be a reassuring presence: efficient during the organised moments and invisible during the in-between ones. After the wedding I carefully edit and present your images so you receive a cohesive collection that reflects the full arc of your day. As a Godalming-based photographer I know the character of local venues and the way light behaves across Surrey, which helps me anticipate moments and find the best settings for your photos. Couples choose me because I blend technical experience with a relaxed, human approach: I care about good light, composition and craft, but I care most about capturing the connection between people. If you’re looking for a wedding day photographer who values authenticity, atmosphere and storytelling, I’d love to hear about your plans. My focus is exclusively on weddings, so every aspect of my work — from preparation to delivery — is shaped to ensure your memories are captured with care and clarity.
