Whether you’ve just got engaged, you’re celebrating an anniversary, or you simply want beautiful photographs of the two of you, the Cornish coast is the perfect backdrop.
I’m Maryann, and for over a decade I’ve been making photographs that feel like the real thing. Natural, relaxed, and completely you, not stiff or posed, but genuine moments caught in golden light.

Cornwall is one of the most photogenic places in the UK for couples sessions, and I know every corner of it. Some of my favourite locations include:
Kynance Cove, dramatic sea stacks, turquoise water and golden light at low tide. Perfect for adventurous couples who don’t mind getting their feet wet. Godrevy Beach, wild, windswept and effortlessly romantic with the iconic lighthouse in the background. Porthcurno, crystal-clear water and white sand that doesn’t feel like England at all. Marazion & St Michael’s Mount, golden sunsets with the mount reflected in the tide pools. Trevaunance Cove, St Agnes, rugged, rocky and beautifully moody for a more dramatic feel. Not set on a beach? We can explore the moors, a wildflower meadow or a woodland, whatever feels most like you.
Cornwall Couples Photography FAQs
Do we need to be engaged? Not at all, couples sessions are for anyone in love. Anniversaries, just-because shoots, and elopement-style portraits are all welcome. When is the best time for photos? The golden hour, roughly 1–2 hours before sunset, gives the most magical light. I’ll advise on exact timing based on your chosen location and the time of year. What should we wear? Wear something you feel comfortable and genuinely yourself in. I’d suggest avoiding very busy patterns and leaning into textures and layers. Can we bring our dog? Absolutely yes. Dogs are always welcome on shoots and honestly often steal the show. How many images will we receive? Mini sessions typically include 30+ images; full Story sessions 100+. All fully edited and delivered via private gallery within 3 weeks.
