Hello

I’m MegaN


Previously a television director & writer, I learned the art of storytelling at the BBC and now use my expertise to tell the story of your day.

I blend documentary storytelling with the polish of Editorial imagery. My approach is about letting the day unfold naturally whilst gently guiding moments when needed, so nothing feels forced or awkward. The focus is on real connection, genuine emotion and beautifully composed images that feel honest and unposed. I make space for you to be yourselves and the result is a collection of timeless images that tell the full story of your day.

I edit with true-to-life colours and avoid fussy filters, to ensure that your images capture both the atmosphere and the emotion, exactly as it felt.

SAY HELLO

WE’ll be a good match if

this is your vibe,,,


You’re quick to laugh and just want to have a good time

You want a fun, joyful wedding where you laugh so much your tummy hurts. You’ll be the first on the dance floor and possibly the last to leave. You want to fully immerse yourselves in the day and make the most of being surrounded by your favourite people.

Wedding Photographer Bourton Hall Warwickshire 13 scaled

you want a few beautiful portraits but you don’t want your wedding day to feel like a photoshoot

Like most couples, you might not enjoy having your photo taken but you still want some beautiful portraits together. You’re not interested in spending hours posing and would prefer to pop out for just fifteen minutes to go for a relaxed wander. For the rest of your day, you’d like your photographer to blend into the background.

You value authenticity

You want your wedding to be documented exactly as it unfolds. Candid & real moments matter to you. You’d love photos of your guests fully enjoying themselves and you want a photographer who is close enough to capture the energy and emotion of the room, without disrupting it.

you don’t want to feel like a number

You would like a bespoke service, where your photographer isn’t juggling too many weddings at once. You would prefer someone who knows your story, understands your vision and is available to chat via WhatsApp.

  • Outstanding work, outstanding human being

     It was like having one of our best friends taking the photos for us. Our family and friends couldn’t stop telling us how lovely and professional she is. There are too many glowing words to describe Megs, so we’ll just say that it was our genuine pleasure to have her there on our special day.

  • Megan is a true artist and a joy to be around

    We had the absolute privilege of having Megan Maxwell as our wedding photographer, and we couldn’t be more grateful. From the moment she arrived, her energy was infectious. She’s warm, upbeat, and genuinely excited to capture our day. Her character shines just as brightly as her talent, and she made us feel completely at ease in front of the camera.

  • We are so happy to have found Megan to capture our wedding day

    We knew we wanted her to be our photographer as soon as we video called. The energy, enthusiasm & happiness she has is infectious, with the added bonus of being my hype girl on the day! She got along with all the guests, and was great with the children too.

A previous bride once told me…

“I’ll definitely pull thEse photos out when I’m 90 and wrinkly. I want to show the great grandkids that grandmama was a stunner!”


As each day passes, your photos will increase in sentimental value. They’ll become priceless as memories fade and loved ones age. Of course legacy building and family heirlooms are important. However, one day you might simply need proof that you were effortlessly cool and totally fabulous. I am here to help you win that argument.

Multi-award winning, Cheshire wedding photographer, flat lay enthusiast and lover of wow moments created with off-camera flash.

I decided to become a wedding photographer because I want to add even more joy to the happiest day of your lives & will be your ultimate hype girl on the day. 

My approach is relaxed, fun and a little bit cheeky. For fifteen years, I made kids telly at the BBC, so I know how to make almost anyone feel comfortable in front of the camera and I’m pretty fluent in toddler too. Whether they’re a Bluey fan or prefer dancing to the Stick Song, I’ve got you covered and will do my best to get a giggle out of them. 

I’m here to capture the real moments, the belly laughs, the tears and all the beautiful in-between bits that make your day yours. From gorgeous details laid out with care to wild dance floors lit up in style, I’ll tell the whole story as it unfolds.

Kind words from my wonderful couples…

During the wedding planning process, the relationship that I build with my couples is incredibly important to me. I am always available for a quick chat on WhatsApp to answer any questions and love to receive photos of shoes, dresses and blooms etc.

When we see one another on your wedding day, I want you to feel like you’re greeting an old friend. This helps you feel more comfortable in front of the camera but it also makes the experience of your big day better.
