Lloyd Dunkley Photography

I specialise in wedding photography from my base in Hucknall, Nottinghamshire — this is my core focus and the work I love most. My approach is simple: disappear into the day and capture it honestly. I work quietly and attentively, seeking the unguarded smiles, the tiny gestures and the in-between moments that become the images you’ll keep returning to. Those are the photographs that feel like memory, not a set of posed shots. Choosing me means choosing someone who prioritises your story. I take time to understand how you want your day documented — whether you prefer a more documentary, natural feel or a few relaxed portraits alongside candid coverage. I offer a free consultation and a pre‑booking shoot so you can experience how I work and be confident that my style and personality suit you. That meeting is as much about building trust as it is about logistics; I want you to feel comfortable, so the real you shines through in every frame. On the day I aim to be both present and unobtrusive. My photographic style blends an artist’s eye with the instincts of a storyteller: I watch, anticipate and record. Lighting, timing and composition are handled with care so the moments come together into a cohesive visual narrative. After the celebration, I focus on a swift, professional edit and delivery because I know how eager couples are to relive their day. My turnaround is fast without compromising the thoughtful finishing that makes images sing. I also provide engagement sessions and cover events and portrait work as occasional services, but weddings remain my specialty. My service is flexible and tailored — I’ll work with you to plan the day, offer practical advice where needed, and adapt to whatever the event throws at us. Many couples appreciate the calm, friendly presence I bring; others value the practical extras like a private online gallery and a personalised slideshow to share with family and friends. If you’re planning a wedding in Hucknall or the Nottingham area and want professional, heartfelt coverage that puts your story first, I’d love to hear about your day. Let’s have a conversation and see if we’re the right fit — your memories deserve an experienced, caring photographer who will preserve them for generations.
