Beth Beresford Photography

I'm Beth (Elizabeth) Beresford — an Ipswich-based, fine-art wedding photographer who tells love stories with an editorial, documentary heart. For almost a decade I've been photographing weddings across Suffolk, Essex, Norfolk and beyond, crafting images that feel timeless, emotive and true to who you are. My approach is gentle and purposeful. I blend a relaxed, unobtrusive documentary style with editorial attention to light, composition and detail so your gallery breathes with authentic emotion: spontaneous laughter, quiet glances, the small details you spent months dreaming over. Couples often tell me that having me there felt like having a kind friend at their side — someone to hold umbrellas, pop on a veil, offer a lipstick rescue or quietly guide a moment when it matters. That practical warmth is part of how I create calm, confident photographs. Working with me is collaborative and considered. Ahead of the day we get to know each other — I want to hear the little things that make your story yours. I help with practical planning, timing and the parts couples often find stressful, so your wedding photography flows naturally within the rhythm of the day. Many clients choose an engagement or adventure shoot to become comfortable in front of the camera; that session isn’t just an add‑on, it’s a gentle way to build trust and relaxed movement so your portraits on the wedding day feel effortless. What sets my work apart is a blend of fine‑art editorial imagery and honest documentary storytelling. I look for light, quiet composition and the chemistry between people, then edit to a refined, modern romantic tone so your photos sit beautifully on your walls for years to come. While weddings are my primary focus, I also offer engagement photography and occasionally run education workshops and personal branding sessions — always without diluting the care I give to every couple’s day. If you want a photographer who feels like a calm, organised, creative extra on the guest list — someone who captures raw, unposed moments and makes the portrait time something you enjoy — let’s connect. I’d love to hear your story and see if we’re kindred spirits for your Ipswich or Suffolk wedding.
