Well Hello, I’m James, A documentary wedding photographer in Derry, Northern Ireland. Available Everywhere
Tis I, a Documentary Wedding Photographer for the Relaxed Romantic and the Fun-loving couples based in Derry, Northern Ireland, available everywhere.
My journey began in 2014 when my daughter was born. I wanted to capture as much of her growth as possible so I bought a camera. Over the years, my interest grew, and I ventured into the world of weddings. What started as a curiosity soon blossomed into a genuine passion. Now, I wholeheartedly embrace the art of photographing weddings, and nothing brings me more joy than providing my couples with a breathtaking experience. I value the opportunity to capture authentic love and create lasting memories for each and every one of my couples.
Somewhere along a typical wedding day, you’ll find me with an iced coffee in hand or quoting films & tv shows like 90s Jim Carrey movies, The US Office or lines from Father Ted.
Just imagine holding onto a moment from the past—a touchable photograph or album, a timeless memory that evokes the emotion of the day it was captured. This is what I strive to offer, preserving the heart and soul of your special day for a lifetime
My philosophy: is to give YOU an unforgettable experience. I’m here not just as your wedding photographer but as your trusted guide—the professional wingman who will support you throughout this beautiful journey, both before and after your wedding day. Let’s begin with a free wedding guide, on the house.
ME IN A
NUTSHELL
WHAT MAKES ME TICK AS A
MEMORY CATCHER
I’m passionate about documentary style photographs that truly matter to those who value moments that are must-haves throughout their wedding day. My focus is on the heartfelt, emotional scenes that go beyond just memories, transporting you back to that exact time. I’m driven by photography that captures the deep connection between two people, creating images that resonate with the heart & drives the soul.
I’m inspired by the deep connection between couples—their love and desire for each other fuels my romantic spirit. There’s nothing I enjoy more than capturing a fun-loving couple on an adventure, sharing laughter and letting their personalities shine. Being part of their story is an honour, documenting every cherished moment that will stay with them forever is what makes me love what I do most.

GET TO KNOW ME
Just a few of my favourite things…
LOVE MY FAMILY:
I am blessed to have a gentlemans family. My girl Eilish and my son Harrrison is what keeps me on my toes when I’m not photographing weddings. Family is precious.
ICED LATTES
Are unbelievably awesome! Thank the world for creating this amazing beverage. It’s completely random I know, but if I’m not drinking one on a wedding day, then something is very wrong.. P.S Up-a Coffee
MY FAVE MUSIC BANDS
I started getting into music at the ripe age of 13. It began with Blink 182, became an emo kid, then a metalhead, and now I listen to everything. Guilty pleasure? 80s music
I´M MOST THANKFUL FOR:
I’m deeply grateful to my couples for trusting me to document their wedding days. It’s an honour to ensure they have the best experience possible, and I truly appreciate being chosen to capture the moments they’ll treasure forever.
