Hello and welcome
We are Emma and Pete. We met on Myspace seventeen years ago (yup, Myspace). We've been shooting weddings together for over twelve years. We've been married for ten and have been parents to Frank for six.
We live a stone’s throw from Penny Lane in Liverpool and in honour (and Pete’s obsession with The Beatles), our beautiful Talbot Campervan is also called ‘Penny’. We love getting out in nature, have a passion for community and enjoy the simple, everyday moments we have as a family.
Both of us are huge advocates for loving hard on the people around us and appreciating the memories we're making. Which is kind of why we're here now. A business that emerged from something we love, getting to know people and sharing their stories. Over the past twelve years we have been lucky to have been welcomed in to so many wonderful families, and by sharing their story they've become a huge part of ours too.
Our creative practice and community
We feel extremly lucky to have found photography and love opportunities to use creativity in impactful ways. Alongside our weddings we both work with local communities, using photography (and writing) as a tool for self expression, connection and to support mental health.
Emma is currently an Artist in Residence at Open Eye Gallery in Liverpool working with local community groups, facilitating photography workshops and creating exhibitions in local spaces. You can see more of Emma’s social practice here. She is also the founder of The RED Archive, a community archive that collects and shares Liverpool Football fans’ photos and stories (her Father, Jimmy Case played for LFC in the seventies).
Emma is fluent in British Sign Language and is also a volunteer peer mentor for Deaf young people for ICAN (Deafness Resource Centre).
Pete writes about Fatherhood, mental health and grief (having sadly lost his own Father in 2020 from Dementia). You can read more here
He is also an amabassador for NCT (National charity for pregnancy, birth and early parenthood) supporting new fathers and partners who are experiencing mental health difficulties.
Our passion has always been people. After years of working creatively with people, we know that the key lies in collaboration. Both our wedding and our community work is about partnerships. Creating a safe space where our couples and our community groups can feel safe to be themselves, to have an opportunity to feel joy, to trust us and to hopefully have an experience that will stay with them long after.
PRINT SHOP
In our personal lives, often whilst travelling we have a love of shooting with our collection of film cameras. We adore the tangible quality of film,
the quirks and surprises are always such a gift and we felt we wanted to share some of our favourites in glorious print.
We have a Print Shop where you’ll find a selection of A1 posters, fine art prints and greeting cards. We have many of these prints in our own home and love the thought that they might one day be in your home too…
