A Moment to Pause | Jay Anderson Weddings

A Moment to Pause

As the year slows down and the Christmas break arrives, it feels like a good moment to pause and properly say hello.

I’m Jay, a wedding photographer and filmmaker based between the West Midlands and London, working across the UK and internationally. I photograph weddings in a way that feels natural and honest, focusing on how the day actually unfolds rather than how it’s meant to look.

My approach is simple. I don’t force moments or over-direct the day. I pay attention, stay close, and let things happen. The quiet parts matter just as much as the loud ones, the in-between moments, the chaos, the calm, and everything surrounding them. That’s where the story really lives. If you’d like to know a little more about how I work and what matters to me when photographing weddings, you can read more on my about page.

If you’re reading this over the Christmas break, you might be newly engaged, deep into planning, or just taking some time to look around. However you’ve arrived here, there’s no pressure. Take your time, explore the work, and see if it feels like the right fit for you.

I’ll be sharing more weddings, venues, and stories over the coming months. including destination celebrations and intimate city weddings, but for now, this feels like a nice place to pause.

If you do feel like getting in touch, whether now or further down the line, I’d love to hear about your plans when it feels right for you..

I reply personally and usually within 48 hours.
