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 — think 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.
I'm a Cornwall wedding photographer based in mid Cornwall, and this county is my patch. 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.
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 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.
«We had a wonderful shoot for the branding of our new company with Mary Ann. She has fantastic vision and is so easy to work with. And the final product is just breathtaking! We will be using her again without a doubt and we recommend her to anyone and everyone who will listen! If we could give ten stars we would however we will just have to settle for the five!»
«Maryann photographed my wedding and the photos are amazing! Highly recommended.»
«Where do I start! I have too many nice things to say about Maryanne! I and my husband had never had any Professional photos of us done, we wanted an engagement shoot and that’s when I stumbled across The Menagerie Lifestyle page. We wanted an outside and that was Walton on the Naze. It was an early evening shoot with our little dog as well and Maryanne & Nathan made us feel so comfortable. I was super happy with the engagement pictures when they came through and was so happy when Maryanne said she was able to do our wedding in Tenerife a few months later. Our day in Tenerife was about 35 degrees and everyone was so hot, in all the pictures you would never know that we were all dying of heat stroke. Maryanne captures moments in time that you never want to forget, I was getting ready with my bridesmaids and flower girls of all different ages. The room was a mess and we were all fanning each other, the pictures came out amazing! Something that I would have thought to have been chaos was perfection. I seriously cannot choose which photos I want to print out and put on the walls of our home as I love them all so much. I will always use The menagerie lifestyle for future shoots, whether it be for work, personal or family she is my go-to photographer. You will not regret going with them xx»
«Excellent, Brilliant, Professional, Imaginative, Quality, I couldn’t have wished for a better wedding photography team. They made us, and all the guests, feel at ease and at our most comfortable. Made the photos look amazing, and nothing looked posed or unnatural. Great value for money, worth every penny. Couldn’t recommend them more. Just wish we could bring them with us when we moved!»
«As someone who hates having their picture taken, I was really nervous to be in front of the camera for my branding shoot. However, Maryann made me feel more at ease by suggesting we have a chat whilst she photographed me. She also photographed my children...one of whom doesn’t stay still, but we are absolutely in love with the pictures she took!I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Maryann. She’s a real star x»
