Everybody Smile Photography & Videography

Hi, I'm Darren! I’m a photographer based in Warwickshire, though I shoot weddings all over the UK.

My laid-back approach to weddings helps guests feel at ease right away. I’m not the type to boss people around, take over your big day, or steal you away for hours when you should be savoring those precious moments with family and friends.

I see myself more as a guest on your special day, blending in with the flow. This approach allows me to capture truly creative, documentary-style images without making anyone feel self-conscious about the camera. Your guests can simply relax and enjoy the day, without the pressure of posing or being directed.

Of course, we can still take some group shots, but we’ll do them in a way that doesn’t interrupt the celebration, leaving you free to enjoy your drinks and mingling.

As for couple photos (if that’s something you want), they won’t take you away from your guests for hours. Most couples appreciate this short, 15-minute break to escape the whirlwind of handshakes and selfies and just enjoy each other’s company. These shots are mostly unposed—I want you to be yourselves, so you won’t find me asking you to look at the camera or do awkward poses with your arms or hips
