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.

Thank you for making our day so special.

Felt like having a friend around during the wedding

Kate photographed our wedding in May and she was great !

We had a pre-wedding session a few weeks before the wedding to get used to getting our picture taken which really helped on the day, and Kate was really good at making us feel comfortable and it was great chatting with her as well.

Kate is very professional but also very friendly and it felt like having a friend around during the wedding. The pictures she took look gorgeous, with great portraits of us but also really nice candid pictures of our guests, plus her style of photography is very bright and light which was also why we picked her in the first place, and we did not regret our choice !

We would definitely recommend Kate to photograph any type of event ! Thanks again Kate xx

I knew instantly she was the one to capture our precious moments…

From the very start, I was nervous about choosing the right wedding photographer. But the moment I emailed Kate and she arranged a Teams call with myself and my now-husband to talk through exactly what we wanted, I knew instantly she was the one to capture our precious moments. She is so friendly, genuine, and easy to connect with—it felt like chatting with an old friend from the start.

In the months leading up to the wedding, we often exchanged messages over Instagram and email—sometimes about the wedding, sometimes just friendly chats. This constant, warm communication made me feel so comfortable and reassured about having her there to capture our day.
On the wedding day itself, Kate was nothing short of brilliant. We booked her full-day package, which included bridal prep, and she went above and beyond—taking the time to beautifully photograph my flowers, jewellery, and meaningful floral decorations. Because both my husband and I were getting ready at the same venue, she even made sure to capture moments of the groom’s preparations too, which was such a lovely touch.

Nothing was too much trouble for Kate. She even gave me a clever tip to stay cool by hiding a fan in my bouquet—a little lifesaver in the heat! My husband isn’t usually one for photos, but Kate made him feel completely comfortable, capturing genuine and special moments between us.
Kate is professional, attentive, and truly gifted. Her photography is one-of-a-kind—captivating, timeless, and full of emotion. I will forever be grateful that we chose her to be part of our wedding. Thank you, Kate, for giving us memories we can treasure for a lifetime.

Endlessly creative

We hired Kate for our wedding this Spring. She was incredibly well priced, funny, thoughtful and endlessly creative. It's only been 3 weeks and we've been shown a large sample of our wedding photos already. I thoroughly recommend her for any and ALL events. I know we'll be thinking of ways to hire her again.

Captured our day perfectly

Kate, Thank you for everything you've done from the start when we met in the Buck over a drink in a relaxed environment, and you showed us all of your albums.

For the support throughout the years with the moving of the wedding date, the pre wedding shoot which gave us a teaser of your work down to the wedding day, nothing was too much to ask of you.

You captured our day perfectly and we are forever grateful. Your work is truly outstanding! When we received our personalised box with the unique colour ribbon to match our theme we thought it was outstanding. We will continue to use you in the future for any other events in our life and you are more than a photographer you are a friend. love Mr & Mrs Jones
