I’m Maryann, a Cornwall wedding photographer based in mid Cornwall, capturing real moments with warmth, romance, and a documentary eye. From clifftop ceremonies above the Atlantic to intimate barn receptions tucked into the Cornish countryside, I photograph weddings across Cornwall and beyond. My style is natural, unscripted, and quietly romantic — stolen glances, genuine laughter, and light that makes your heart catch. Whether you’re planning a relaxed elopement or a full-day celebration, I’d love to tell your story.
My style is part documentary, part quietly romantic. I’ll catch the bridesmaid wiping a tear during the speeches, the groom’s hand finding the small of his partner’s back, the dog photo-bombing the family group. I won’t make you stand awkwardly in a row pretending to laugh. We’ll go for a wander instead — find some good light, talk about your week, let the camera do its thing while you forget I’m there.
Brides, grooms, partners of every kind — Cornwall weddings come in every shape, and so do the people getting married. Two brides, two grooms, partners and people of every gender — you’re all welcome here, and your love story will be told honestly, beautifully, and entirely on your terms.
Cornwall is my canvas. I work across the whole county and know its light intimately — from the beaches at St Ives and the cliffs above Porthleven, to the wide open moor at Bodmin, the hidden creeks of the Fal, the wild headlands of the Lizard, and the harbour at Padstow. Popular venues I’ve photographed include Trevenna, Knightor Winery, The Lost Gardens of Heligan, Beacon Crag, Bosvathick, Pendennis Castle, Trelowarren, The Rosevine, and many intimate barn conversions and private estates across mid and west Cornwall. Wherever your day takes us, I’ll meet you there.
Based in mid Cornwall, I cover weddings across the whole county including Truro, St Ives, Penzance, Falmouth, Newquay, Padstow, Bodmin, Helston, St Austell, Looe, and the Isles of Scilly. I also travel regularly to Devon, Somerset, and beyond — travel fees may apply for weddings more than 60 miles from Truro.
How far in advance should I book?
Most couples book 12–18 months ahead, especially for popular summer Saturdays. I only take a small number of weddings per year so I can give each one the attention it deserves — I’d recommend getting in touch as early as possible.
Do you photograph elopements?
Absolutely. Some of my favourite days have been small, intimate elopements — just the two of you, a wild Cornish headland, and a sense of adventure. Get in touch and we can design a day that fits exactly what you want.
What’s included in your packages?
All packages include a pre-wedding consultation, full-day coverage, a professionally edited online gallery, and print-quality downloads. Combined photography and videography packages are also available. Full details and pricing are on the pricing page.
Can we meet before booking?
Yes — I always recommend a call or video chat before booking so we can make sure we’re the right fit. I want you to feel completely comfortable with me on your wedding day.
Do you travel outside Cornwall?
Yes! I love destination weddings and have photographed across the UK and Europe. Just ask.

I'm a Cornwall wedding photographer based in mid Cornwall, and this county is my canvas. The beaches at St Ives, the cliffs above Porthleven, the wide open moor at Bodmin, the hidden creeks of the Fal, the wild headlands of the Lizard, the harbour at Padstow — wherever your love story takes us, I'll meet you there.

Brides, grooms, partners of every kind — Cornwall weddings come in every shape, and so do the people getting married. Two brides, two grooms, partners and people of every gender, you're all welcome here, and your love story will be told the same way: honestly, beautifully, and entirely on your terms.
Real moments over perfection. Storytelling over staging. The good light, the goosebumps, the first dance under the fairy lights, the way you look at each other when you think no one's watching — that's what I'm here for. Find out about pricing and packages.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, I'd love to hear from you. Tell me about your day, your people, your venue, your dog. Let's make some photographs you'll actually want to print.
«Rebecca, married on 03/05/2024Maryann was perfect from start to finish. We instantly felt at ease and really couldn't have asked for anyone better to document our special day! She completely fit in with the relaxed, laid back vibe of the day and we're so happy with how everything went. Maryann was more than just the photographer on our day, she helped with so many of the small details and helped out massively when I was getting ready, including helping me use the steamer for the first time! We're thrilled with the sneak peek photos we've received so far and can't wait to see the rest!»
«Chris, married on 20/05/2023Cannot recommend Maryann and Nathan enough, they were both amazing. They fit in brilliantly on the day and the photos are incredible. Would highly recommend!»
«Pkaymakeup, married on 01/01/1999I used Maryann for my own personal Branding shots and she made me feel so comfortable and at ease during our session. I am so happy with the results! Maryann has a wonderful eye for great shots and creates a relaxed, calm atmosphere. She is so professional and I wouldn't hesitate to book again in the future!»
«Andrea, married on 07/10/2023Having Maryann as our photographer for multiple weddings (to the same guy, Maryann knows what we mean) speaks volumes about the trust and confidence we have in her. Her ability to capture the most natural, beautiful, and meaningful moments is truly unparalleled. From the candid shots that perfectly encapsulate the joy of the day to the carefully composed portraits, every image reflects her exceptional eye for detail and storytelling. Her warm and calming presence means that you almost forget she's there, allowing for truly authentic moments to be captured. The quality of her work is outstanding and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her there to document our special occasions. A huge thank you Maryann!»
«Scarlet, married on 14/05/2025We hired Menagerie in a dual package as both our photographer and videographer, something surprisingly rare to find, and we honestly cannot stress enough how fantastic they were. They captured beautiful shots of the ceremony and family, and when it came to our private photos, they struck the perfect balance of fun and sentimental. It was so engaging to see how invested they were in exploring unique ideas that gave us memories we'll treasure for a lifetime.The quality is outstanding. The video they created is a full hour of professionally edited footage, which means we'll be able to relive the most important parts of the day for years to come. Despite planning for years, the day itself flew by, so having this keepsake is priceless.»
