Living Witness Weddings

Living Witness Weddings is a Coleraine specialist in wedding photography and film, dedicated to capturing the true atmosphere of your day. Simon’s approach is intentionally alternative, candid and gently quirky — he prefers to be a fly on the wall rather than interrupting the flow of your celebration. That means the images and films feel natural, emotive and full of the small, unposed moments couples return to again and again. Why choose Living Witness Weddings? Simon built the business from a lifelong love of image-making — inspired by nature documentaries and moving-image tutors — and his work reflects that curiosity and attention to detail. He values honest storytelling over staged perfection, and he brings that documentary sensibility to every wedding in Northern Ireland and beyond. His tagline — LOOK, SEE, CAPTURE, REMEMBER — sums up the promise: to look with you at what matters, to see the best ways to capture it, and to give you memories you’ll revisit for years. The experience is relaxed and personable. Simon takes time to get to know couples, learning what matters most to them so the photos and film reflect their personalities and relationships. Pre-wedding shoots and casual meet-ups are part of how he builds trust and helps camera-shy couples feel at ease. On the day, the aim is to blend in: unobtrusive, friendly and professional, so guests behave naturally and genuine reactions are preserved. Living Witness Weddings also offers videography that complements the photographic style — cinematic highlight reels and documentary-led edits that bring voices, vows and laughter back to life. Simon is supported by a small, trusted crew (including long-time collaborators Calvin and Calum) who share the same warm, unobtrusive approach and creative eye. Every collection is driven by the desire to create meaningful keepsakes. Simon’s personal story — marrying in Barbados and dedicating his work to the memory of his father — feeds a sensitive, human-centred way of working. If you’re looking for a Coleraine wedding photographer who prioritises authenticity, atmosphere and a relaxed, creative experience, Living Witness Weddings specialises in making your wedding day feel remembered exactly as it felt.
