Mikaela Jade Photography

I’m Mikaela — a Suffolk-based wedding photographer rooted in Ipswich, specialising in warm, serene and romantic wedding photography. For over a decade I’ve devoted my practice to capturing the honest, wholesome moments that make each wedding unique. My work is guided by a simple belief: the most beautiful images come from relaxed people, genuine interactions and an attention to the small, tender details that tell your story. Why choose me as your wedding photographer? I approach wedding days with a calm, unobtrusive energy that lets real emotion breathe. Whether you’re planning a full celebration in a manor house, a forest elopement, a beach-side vow exchange, or a small intimate ceremony, I focus on capturing the truth of the day — the laughter, quiet glances, and all the moments in between — with a warm, romantic aesthetic. I love both the sweeping, cinematic frames and the quiet, candid touches that become keepsakes for years to come. My process is collaborative and personal. From our first chat I’ll listen to your vision and help shape a photography plan that suits your day and personality. Many couples find a pre-wedding or engagement session a comforting way to get to know one another before the big day — it’s something I often recommend to help you feel at ease in front of the camera. On the wedding day I blend gentle direction with documentary observation: guiding when you need it, stepping back when moments unfold naturally. Though weddings are my primary focus, my background in portraiture enriches how I see people and light — I bring that experience into bridal portraits and couple sessions to create images that feel timeless and authentic. Based in Ipswich, I cover weddings across Suffolk, the UK and Europe, and I welcome destination celebrations with the same thoughtful approach. Above all, what drives me is the privilege of being present for one of the most important days in a couple’s life. I strive to deliver a calm, confident presence on the day and images that feel like you — warm, honest and full of heart. If you want a specialist wedding photographer in Ipswich who values authenticity and romance, I’d love to hear about your plans.
