Moments that endure

12 Years behind
the lens

A photographer
who listens first

I grew up in Carmarthenshire, and the landscapes here have shaped everything about how I see. The way late afternoon light falls across the Tywi, the particular shade of grey the Preseli Hills turn before rain, the almost unbearable quality of a West Wales summer evening — these are the references I carry into every commission, whatever I am photographing.

After training at the University of the Arts London and spending several years working in commercial and editorial photography, I returned to West Wales to build a practice that feels genuinely rooted in this part of the world. I work across weddings, portraits, commercial projects, events, and fine art landscape — the common thread being an unhurried, attentive approach that puts the subject first.

Before a shoot begins, I want to understand your vision — not so I can replicate something you have seen elsewhere, but so I can create images that are entirely, specifically yours. That conversation matters more to me than any equipment or technique.

We start with a relaxed conversation — in person, by phone, or via video call — to understand your brief, your vision, and what you need from the day or session.

02

Bespoke Proposal

You receive a tailored proposal with clear pricing, a detailed brief summary, and a contract for your records. A deposit secures your date.

03

The Shoot

On the day, I work quietly and unobtrusively, letting moments unfold naturally while ensuring every key element of your brief is captured with care.

04

Gallery Delivery

A curated, fully edited gallery is delivered via private online link within the agreed timeframe. High-resolution files, print-ready and ready to keep for life.

What clients say

Adrian photographed our wedding at Aberglasney in May and the images are simply extraordinary. He was invisible on the day — in the best possible sense — and yet somehow caught every single moment that mattered to us. We look at these photographs every week.

Emma & James Rees Wedding, Aberglasney Gardens

We commissioned Adrian to shoot our new restaurant and hotel in Laugharne. The images completely transformed our website and marketing. He understood the atmosphere we were trying to convey without us having to explain it twice. Genuinely exceptional work.

Ffion Morgan Commercial, The Corran Resort

We had a family portrait session on the beach near Tenby and I cannot overstate how good these photographs are. Our children are notoriously difficult to photograph — somehow Adrian got them relaxed and laughing within ten minutes. The results are everything we hoped for.

The Williams Family Portrait Session, Pembrokeshire

We purchased two large prints from Adrian's Tywi Valley series for our office and they are the first thing visitors comment on. Beautiful, calming, and genuinely evocative of this part of Wales. Will be commissioning more.

Carwyn Hughes Fine Art Print, Carmarthenshire

We booked Adrian for our annual charity gala in Cardigan and he delivered comprehensive event coverage that perfectly captured the spirit of the evening. Fast turnaround, beautifully edited, and incredibly professional throughout. Our go-to photographer for events in West Wales.

Mair Thomas Event, Cardigan

Our engagement session was my favourite part of the whole wedding process — Adrian made it completely relaxed and we came away with photographs that genuinely look like us, not a stock image. His knowledge of the best locations in Carmarthenshire is extraordinary.

Questions
answered

If you have a question that is not covered here, please get in touch directly. I aim to respond to all enquiries within one working day.

Ask a Question
How far in advance should I book?

For weddings, I recommend enquiring at least 12 months in advance, particularly for summer dates which book earliest. Portrait and commercial sessions can often be arranged with shorter notice — typically two to four weeks, depending on availability.

Do you photograph weddings outside Wales?

Yes, absolutely. I am available for destination weddings and commissions throughout the UK and internationally. Travel and accommodation costs are discussed transparently at the enquiry stage and factored into your bespoke proposal.

How long will I wait for my photographs?

Wedding galleries are typically delivered within three weeks of your wedding day. Commercial and portrait commissions are usually completed within one to two weeks. A fast-turnaround option is available for event photography when required.

What if the weather is bad on the day?

West Wales weather is part of the landscape here — overcast skies, soft rain, and dramatic cloud cover often produce the most compelling photographs. I am experienced shooting in all conditions and always have backup plans for location sessions.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. A deposit secures your date, with the balance due prior to the session or wedding day. Instalment plans can be arranged for larger commissions — this is discussed openly during the proposal stage.

Can I order prints and albums after delivery?

Yes. Your online gallery remains active for 12 months following delivery, and prints, albums, and wall art can be ordered at any point through the gallery portal. Fine art prints are produced by a specialist photographic laboratory in the UK.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. I hold full professional indemnity and public liability insurance. Documentation can be provided to venues on request.
