"Unguarded emotion rendered with a sculptural eye. Helaina sees weddings not as scenes to document, but as worlds to interpret."
— THE LANE
Every glorious, precious, unrepeatable nuance of your celebration deserves to be observed and honoured with intention and heart. From the delicate emotions and subtle interactions during the build up to your ceremony, right through to the wildly imperfect chaos of the dance floor, my job and my joy is to make the things you feel into art you can see.
With my ethos rooted in conviviality, I tailor every experience to you as a couple, in homage to the way you move through the world together and the energy you share. Establishing a personal and meaningful connection with you and your loved ones, immersing myself in the atmosphere and noticing details and moments which most overlook, I will shoot from inside your circle, weaving together the evanescent fragments of your day to curate a collection that mirrors your spirit and outlives us all. Poetic, layered, lived-in and timeless.
Emotions never go out of style.

forever
Moments you
Long after the music fades and the flowers have wilted, your images will live on eternally as the only remaining tangible memory of one of the most significant and wildly fleeting days of your lives. I am aware of the resounding privilege and responsibility of your trust in me to preserve your legacy and this will be reflected in my approach to your photographs, pouring my soul into encapsulating the true essence of you and your unique love story, as though you are my own family.
Time is our most precious commodity and the ability to visually pause a millisecond of wonder to be treasured for eternity is a truly priceless artform. As the years go by, the immeasurable value of your wedding photographs increases exponentially. They become a cherished part of history for friends, children, and grandchildren to look back at, re-living ephemeral, transient moments, otherwise gone forever.
Recognising that your photos are an investment, it's crucial that your values align with those of your photographer.
If you seek an image maker fully committed to capturing authentic, breathtaking images of your day, someone who shares your discerning appreciation for thoughtful details and a fascination for deep human connection, who can craft a distinctive, relaxed, and thoroughly enjoyable experience from beginning to end, then I would be delighted to work with you.

Analogue 35mm is one of my favourite mediums for telling the story of your day in the nostalgic, perfectly imperfect way that only film can, with dreamy, soft, rich colours and grain. It has a charming unpredictability and a calming effect requiring a slower, more considered and intentional process, which is palpable in your collection when you opt for hybrid coverage. Film-only coverage is also available on request.

HEALEY HOUSE, NORTHUMBERLAND
Don’t mind me crying happy tears! The photos are more than we could have ever imagined and have left us absolutely speechless! We simply cannot believe how beautifully they capture the weekend and reflect us and our loved ones so perfectly in our essence. They are pure magic and we can’t stop smiling. It’s impossible to decide on our favourites which is a credit to you and the work you have done. Thank you for making us feel so seen. The care that you have shown us is visible in every single image. We are in love with them all and so grateful to you. We will continue to enjoy them for years to come and just feel so lucky to have had you capture these memories for us. You were absolutely incredible!!!
CLARIDGE’S, LONDON
We cannot thank you enough for the most beautifully breathtaking way you captured our day. You have exceeded every expectation we had for our photos. Your style, elegance and artistry shine through in every frame and this collection is nothing short of sensational. I always knew you would bring our vision to life perfectly, but these have completely blown us away. The details, the moments, the aesthetic. So natural, so effortless, yet every image is rich with emotion and intimacy. Your ability to tell the story of the day through your documentary perspective is such an art and truly a gift. Every time I look through them, I spot something else I hadn’t noticed before. They just get better and better.
ONE MARYLEBONE, LONDON
We just wanted to take a moment to say a huge thank you for being such an important part of our wedding day. From the moment you arrived, you made everything flow so naturally and seamlessly and it honestly felt like we’d known you forever.
You brought such warmth, energy and professionalism, and it really put us at ease throughout the day. Our parents even mentioned how genuine and invested you seemed, which meant so much to us.
We are so grateful to you for capturing our day and helping everything run so smoothly behind the scenes. Thank you again for your incredible talent and for playing such a big role in making our day so special.
