SO YOU’RE GETTING MARRIED?! WAHOOOO! it doesn’t get more flippin’ exciting than that!!
Now you get to plan your big day, you probably have lots of decisions to make including deciding the perfect wedding photographer. Besides your shiny new spouse, your wedding photos will be the number one keepsake you take away to remember the day so choosing how it’s captured and by who is a big decision.
I’m based in Colchester, Essex and the majority of my wedding work happens all over Essex, Suffolk and London but I’ll travel to where ever you want. I love to hear about new and exciting destinations, nowhere is too far and nothing is too crazy!
So here’s a little about the kind of wedding photographer I am…
my style
in a nutshell: relaxed & creative.
I like to photograph a wedding as it happens, this is your day! So let’s make sure the focus is on you enjoying every single second and not dominate it with laborious posing sessions. I want to capture those natural, authentic moments that are truly special and individual to you and the people you love.
The best compliment I’ve ever had was from a bridesmaid who observed “I didn’t even know she was there but from the pictures I see she was everywhere!”
Lets plan together…
Anything to make the weddings I photograph EPIC!
Before your big day we can meet, drink coffee, talk all things wedding-y and even go for a little engagement portrait session. Your big day is to be celebrated with your best loved ones, but as your photographer I’m often given a front row seat to these most precious of moments. So it’s probably a good idea we get to know each other a bit and I promise I’m really very friendly!
Also because I’ve been on the wedding scene a while I have a little insight to some of the best suppliers around (like I said I’m really very friendly) so if you need some suggestions: just ask.

"Absolutely amazing service from start to finish for our wedding" | Alex, Frinton, Essex
Absolutely amazing service from start to finish for our wedding. Charlie makes you feel comfortable and relaxed (and I am certainly not relaxed when it comes to having my picture taken). Charlie is there for you every step of the way and always happy to answer any questions you might have, no matter how silly you think they are. On our wedding day Charlie was brilliant at directing small groups of people who needed to be in the pics, to all the mass guests for those amazing full pictures. She was in the back ground capturing those precious memories that no one ever seems to think about but wish they had got them. Everyone of our guests loved her, the energy she gives off and the amazing pictures she’s able to capture. Great job and certainly recommending you to everyone!
"She captures moments and visions and creates memories in an instant." | Liz, Halstead, Essex
"It was all just perfect and exactly what we wanted." | Mark & Sue, Braintree, Essex
We were more than happy with how our day went, and her involvement in it all. It was all very relaxed, and we didn’t feel pressured into anything or think that the photography ‘took over’ our day! It was all just perfect and exactly what we wanted.
From the initial contact, meetings in between, and the day itself, Charlie made us feel completely at ease. Despite our friendship she was completely professional throughout, making recommendations when needed but also acknowledging our laid back approach.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Charlie for any photography work. Proof of how good her work is can be seen in our pictures, and we would be more than happy to use her for other photography shoots.
"Her passion and enthusiasm for her work truly shines through in every picture." | Jess & Tom, Hackney, London
"All our guests said how lovely you were on the day and how excellent the pics look." | Laura & Harry, Chelmsford, Essex
"She was truly so much fun..." | Abi, Colchester, Essex
Charlie did our wedding and engagement photos and we could not be happier with the results! She was truly so much fun, no question went unanswered or another photo too much. We very highly recommend Farlie Photography.
"She has such a wonderful way about her that just adds to the excitement of the day." | Julie, Colchester, Essex
I would like to thank Charlie for capturing our Wedding day on Saturday 6th February at Hylands House, she was amazing- she has such a wonderful way about her that just adds to the excitement of the day. I would highly recommend her if you are getting married!
