WHo am i?
I live in Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire with my ginger bearded boy, Simon and our puppy, Pixel. I wasn’t a person who was given a camera as a child and instantly fell in love. Photography found me in my early twenties and became a way of processing the ups and downs of life. I loved photographing people and had a lot of friends who were getting married around that time, so I took my camera along. The rest is history!
Wedding photography is a dream come true for me. It allows me to surround myself with happy, smiley people, be creative and give my couples lovely memories of them on their very best day.

how i work
Booking a wedding photographer can be quite a daunting task. There are so many options and it’s totally normal to feel a little overwhelmed.
I prefer to keep things simple. My style of photography is as natural as possible, so that you can enjoy every second of your day. I won’t make you pose for hours on end because I don’t believe that this is how the best photographs are taken. You should be able to feel relaxed and like your best self on your wedding day, rather than rushing from one task to the next. I want to create photos that will instantly transport you back to how you felt on that day.
Being a photographer also means being a drink fetcher, flower fastener and all round best pal on your day. I’m proud to have create and maintained hundreds of friendships with wonderful couples over the years because ultimately, I want you to feel like i’m a friend, rather than just a supplier.

a few facts about me
– I’m a big fan of music with quite an eclectic taste but am sadly a terrible singer.
– My favourite colour is mustard yellow. It’s just the best one.
– My all time favourite TV show is Grey’s Anatomy. As soon as I reach the end, I restart it.
– I own far too many house plants
– I love collecting tattoos and growing my record collection.
– I also love making pottery and have a little shop selling things that i’ve made
– I recently got into youtube cooking channels. I can highly recommend Binging with Babish and Claire Saffitz.

This day was a long time in the making but boy was it worth it. Two wonderful humans made it official on Saturday and I was so thrilled to be able to take their pictures. The biggest congratulations to my wonderful couple and now firm friends, Anna and Helen 🧡

Guys, it's my business birthday! Laura Rhian Photography is 14 years old today.
This business has been with me through thick and thin. Love, heartbreak, 5 house moves, a global pandemic, and many pairs of shoes. It is the one of the biggest loves of my life and I'm so grateful to have completed another year.
Off to find some cake 🧡
