Capture Your Memories Angel Photography

Congratulations! You’re getting married, and that’s truly incredible! Now, you’re beginning the search for someone to capture your special day. Angel Photography understand that photographs and films will serve as lasting memories of what promises to be an amazing start to your life together. It’s so important to find a style you love and a team you connect with.

Andrea and Simon are the team behind the lenses. They love music, travelling, anything competitive, adventures, and… WEDDINGS! They are passionate about the fashion, themes, and tiny details that make each celebration unique. They appreciate the preparations, the emotions, and the outpouring of love. They cherish those moments when the couple first sees each other at the top of the aisle, the mischievous twinkle in the pageboy’s eye, and the quiet tear during speeches. Most of all, they love capturing all these moments in a quiet, unassuming way. Their goal is to document the happy moments, the emotional ones, and all the in-between times—acting as casual observers who tell your story through their photography and film.

One of their favourite parts of the day is taking a moment to create beautiful, intimate images of you together—offering a little ‘time out’ to relax, chat about the day, and catch their breath. They will gently guide when needed but aim to capture you being yourselves—together and in love.

They understand that you will choose a team of people who instinctively know what the other is thinking. That’s why every moment and emotion is captured naturally and unobtrusively. They work seamlessly together to tell the story.
