It's nice to meet you

 

I'm Heather Birnie. I’m a documentary wedding photographer who lives on a farm in West Wales and I’m a sucker for the outdoors, adventure, meeting new people and of course, weddings. I care about real emotions, capturing intimate moments and creating truly memorable photographs for you to cherish for the rest of your lives.

I don’t do posed, I don’t do awkward; I just do natural and unstaged wedding photographs that flow with your day.

I welcome bookings from all over the UK and further afield, so please, tell me about your plans. Whether it’s a forest wedding, a classical country house wedding, a destination wedding or an elopement with your nearest and dearest, I’d love to hear more. 

If you want to learn more about me, head this way!

Or if you want to say hello, head down to my contact page to get in touch.

Weddings

 
 
Heather photographed our wedding and we couldn’t have wished for someone more perfect. She fitted into our day like a glove and the shots are just mesmerising. We can’t recommend her enough, so lovely and friendly whilst being completely professional and getting amazing shots. Heather was our dream photographer. We feel like we have gained a new friend!

Heather was a joy to have with us on our wedding day, she blended into the day without making anyone feel the slightest bit uncomfortable, and managed to capture all the special moments that happened throughout. She is such a lovely person and we all felt like she was part of the family. Her unobtrusive way of working meant she made the most beautiful, natural images which we will treasure forever.
