Olivia Whittaker Photography

I’m Olivia Whittaker, a Haslingden-based wedding photographer who loves documenting weddings with honesty and heart. I specialise in wedding photography, focusing on the real moments that make your day unmistakably yours — the quiet glances, the tearful speeches, the laughter in between. My aim is to create wedding photos that feel natural and timeless, images you’ll keep returning to for years to come. What sets my approach apart is a blend of documentary sensitivity and a calm, friendly presence. I look for the small, unscripted moments and the big emotional beats, always mindful of how each image contributes to the overall story of your day. My style is unobtrusive: I’ll be there to capture the moment without directing every movement, creating a relaxed atmosphere that helps couples and guests feel comfortable in front of the camera. Working with me is straightforward and personal. I take time to understand what matters to you, from the moments you want captured to the tone you imagine for your photos. On the wedding day I balance a documentary mindset with gentle guidance for portraits, ensuring you receive a mix of candid storytelling and beautiful, composed bridal images. I’m used to adapting to different venues around Haslingden and beyond, and I plan shoots so your timeline flows naturally while allowing space for authentic connections. My work is driven by a genuine love for weddings and the people at their heart. I value honesty, warmth and attention to detail — from the way light falls on a morning dress to the confetti burst after the ceremony. Each wedding is treated as its own story, and I strive to deliver wedding photos that are both emotionally resonant and beautifully crafted. If you’re looking for a Haslingden wedding photographer who prioritises real emotion, a calm presence on the day, and professional, thoughtfully edited images, I’d love to hear about your plans. Together we’ll create a collection of wedding photographs that reflect your story and feel like you.
