Hello

and welcome…

I’m Kate; an experienced wedding photographer based in Margam. If you’re looking for someone who’s naturally creative, friendly and calming – I may be the photographer for you.

My style is warm, romantic and modern, using light and scenery to frame the moment, with the aim to capture genuine emotion and atmosphere of the day – but also the warmth, happiness and love, so when you look at them years later you remember the feeling of that day.

A true professional

Brilliantly talented lady! We have had a number of photo sessions with Kate, she has captured so many treasured memories for us, so beautifully, we will forever be indebted to her. I wouldn't hesitate to call on her again for more of her beautiful work.

Kate is the most wonderful person, a kind, calming, funny, creative, and hard working lady, who has an eye for capturing the best of people and places, producing images that are 'us' only better! She has gone over and above the call of a mere photographer on numerous occasions, to capture 'the shot', and to offer her friendly support, help and advice, while at all times remaining a true professional. She has preserved for us the joy of some of the best moments of our lives, images that we look through again and again, each time reliving those great memories.

We have many of the photographs that Kate made for us, hanging on our walls, visitors always comment on how beautiful they are; numerous family and friends have requested pieces of her work too. We just love looking back at them. Engagements and weddings, as with many of life's best experiences, can fly by so fast, it's hard to remember the days, hours and minutes of the occasion; thanks to Kate we will never forget our happiest of days.

Made it easy…

I can't rate Kate highly enough! we both really don't like having our photograph taken but Kate made it easy. She is funny and takes beautiful photos without making you feel like your constantly posing. On the day she blended in with our guests and became one of the wedding party. She helped organise, helped with flowers and dresses and even joined us on the dance floor.


This was our second wedding and she took beautiful shots of our 'lockdown wedding' last year also which was no easy job with social distancing but she took that in her stride too.


Thank you doesn't seem enough Kate

Couldn’t have chosen anyone better to capture our special day

Kate was absolutely brilliant and we feel like we couldn't have chosen anyone better to capture our special day.

We wanted a photographer that was natutal light and airy and kate suited our style perfectly. Kate kept in touch frequently and gave us great advice on the lead up to the wedding. During the wedding she was amazing, like many others we aren't naturals in front of a camera but kate made us feel relaxed and at ease throughout the whole day and captured our day beautifully. Our photos are more than we ever dreamed of and we absolutely love them.

We would definitely recommend kate to anyone she is fab, she was not only proffesional and approachable but an all round lovely lady. Thank you so much kate!  x

I wish I could give you a million more stars!

From our first meeting to our wedding day, Kate is the most lovely, professional, easy going person you will ever meet.

We were apprehensive about our engagement shoot as neither of us were very keen on having our photo taken but Kate made it such a fun experience and I was over the moon with the photos we had back. Our wedding day was no different, Kate is such a calming person to have around and happy to go with whatever is going on with no fuss at all, I hardly saw her or Dave during parts of the day but they captured some lovely shots.

Many of our guests have commented on what a lovely photographer Kate was on the day and how quick and organised she was with the group shots. We are in love with our wedding photos and have had so many compliments about them. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ❤

We had amazing fun too!

From the moment we met Kate we instantly clicked. It was a pleasure to have her photograph our wedding, she brought the perfect mix of professionalism and casual, friendly character which gave us confidence that she would get the best images taken on the day and made us feel sooo comfortable posing on the other end of the camera!!

The biggest concern for us was “would we feel comfortable in front of the camera?” Well I can tell you we weren’t just comfortable we had amazing fun too!! We are so so pleased with how the photos turned out and they really do capture how perfect the day went for us and how happy we were.


Thank you so much Kate for helping us have an amazing experience of our wedding day!! We will definitely book you again! Xx

Kate’s photographs speak for themselves


Thank you Kate for capturing the most gorgeous photos of our most amazing day!!




I cannot recommend Kate enough. The most relaxed, professional, fabulous lady you could meet. After half an hour you would of thought you’d have know Kate forever! We all felt so comfortable around her, she even popped me in my dress!!




Kate also remembered the little touches that I had mentioned and reminded me of these on the day. If Kate hadn’t of mentioned them, I would have completely forgot - see not only a photographer!




I had previously messaged Kate and asked for sunset photos down the beach (which was a little drive from the venue) and on the day the hubs wasn’t sure about leaving the wedding. Kate insisted we went as she knew that’s what we really wanted and off we went! Wow!!!!! The photos are insane! It was so much fun to go off and have a fun hour having to ourselves with Kate. One of the highlights of the day!! Would definitely recommend this!!




Kate’s photographs speak for themselves. We were totally blown away when we received our preview photographs, even capturing the children and the relaxed moments. I then had a wonderful surprise of coming home to the most gorgeous personalised box with our photos and memory stick! So lovely to keep.




Kate- Thank you again for capturing our day so perfectly. Our photographs are so precious to us and will be cherished for a lifetime and more.

Goes above and beyond!

Kate was such an amazing photographer for our wedding day.

She’s highly experienced and made me feel so at ease which was a godsend as it can be such a stressful day but she helped to make it calm and relaxing. Not only did she take the most gorgeous photos, capturing the most important moments and creating beautifully posed shots, but she went above and beyond on the day.

She helped to button up my wedding dress as it was so fiddly, she even got her shoes drenched in mud when taking a picturesque shot in the vineyard, and she worked so well with our videographer who she hadn’t met before! Thank you Kate

Absolutely over the moon

Both my wife and I can’t recommend Kate highly enough. She is a lovely woman and an exceptionally talented photographer. We’re absolutely over the moon with the quality and range of shots. She totally understood what we were wanting from the get-go and far exceeded our high expectations.

We’ve received some wonderful feedback from our friends and family about the sneak peak photographs we received in the couple weeks after the wedding. We are delighted and would happily recommend Kate to anyone in a heart beat. Look no further for brilliance and an unobtrusive professionalism.

Captured the day in a natural way

Where do I even begin?!?
From start to finish, kate was incredible on our wedding day. Kate was professional, discreet and not pushy in any way. We wanted a relaxed photographer that captured the day in a natural way and she did just that!

We also adored our pre wedding shoot that was included in the package, here we really got to know kate and got a feel for her photography style.

Everybody loves our photos and many members of our family commented on how lovely and professional kate was to have around on our special day!

Thank you kate, we can’t wait to see our official photo album!
