Art By Design Photography

At Art by Design Photography, we are passionate about capturing the beautiful moments of your special day. As a wedding photographer based in South Wales, I, Steve, have had the privilege of documenting countless wedding stories for over 20 years. My aim is to provide a fun, professional, and supportive photography experience that you will cherish for a lifetime.

My Story

Born and raised in Wiltshire, I moved to Wales at a young age and am proud to call myself Welsh. When I'm not behind the lens, you can find me indulging in my love for pastries, practicing martial arts, or spending time with my two adorable Samoyed dogs, Sammi and Kato.

My Photography Style

My style is perfect for outdoor, bohemian, woodland, farm, and festival-style weddings. I take great pride in capturing the full story of your day, from the moments of laughter and love to the tender moments of connection and joy. My passion is to freeze the beauty of your special day in a way that will make you relive the memories forever.

My Achievements

I have been fortunate enough to win 'Wedding Photographer of the Year' at the WWA 2018, ranked as one of the top 3 photographers in Bridgend, and top 100 in the UK by Your Perfect Wedding Photographer. My work has been published in various wedding magazines, online wedding sites, and press including the Telegraph.

Choosing Your Photographer

When selecting a photographer, it's essential to consider how important photography is to you and your budget. Remember, once the ceremony is over, the food has been eaten, and the party has ended, all you have are pictures. A photographer will document the full story of your day, capturing all the connections, moments, love, and laughter that you will forget as your day will go by in a blink of an eye.

Trust Your Instincts

Book a photographer whose editing style is consistent and aesthetics align with what you love. Connect with the photographer to find out if you feel comfortable in front of the camera. Most importantly, trust that your photographer will make you feel at ease and capture your special day with love and care.
