Wedding photography for the wild & free

Two women in elegant attire standing close together among trees in a forest, smiling and facing each other.

Quick Glance:

Name: Lucie
Pronouns: She/Her
Based: Greater Manchester
Covers: UK and beyond
Summary: I am a neuro-spicy and totally inclusive alternative documentary-style wedding photographer with a flair for capturing the love stories of the wild and free. Serving the goths, the nerds, the fairies, and the weirdos, when I photograph your big day, you won't feel like there's a photographer there at all, just another one of your people. Expect a stress-free, calm, and fun approach, loads of candid moments that you didn't even see yourself, and a gallery that's just 100% you.

It’s not a phase… Dark Weddings are not a fashion trend - they’re here to stay!

In 2022, a group of alternative wedding suppliers gathered inside a deconsecrated church in Leeds to create a dark celestial wedding shoot. Four years later, we can see it was about more than moons and stars.

The alternative wedding world has grown enormously since these images were taken. New suppliers have appeared. New events and communities have been created. The breadth of what an alternative wedding can look like has expanded, and, somewhere along the way, two independent wedding collectives eventually found their paths converging to become Dark Wedding Collective.

Heart & Soul: When a wedding theme becomes a language

There is something wonderfully strange about the way we've turned the heart into a symbol of love. The real thing isn't symmetrical. It isn't pink. It certainly doesn't come with an arrow through it. It's muscle and valves and blood.

Which, when you think about it, makes the anatomical heart a rather perfect wedding symbol.
