Photo & Film

Still & moving
in one session

Photography and cinematic film combined into a single session. Two ways to relive the same beautiful moments.

The Concept

Why choose when you
can have both?

A hybrid session gives you the best of both worlds. While I photograph the key moments of your session, I also capture cinematic footage that tells the full story. The movement, the sound, the atmosphere that stills alone can't convey.

This isn't two separate shoots crammed together. I work seamlessly between camera and film, so there's no awkward switching or double-up on posing. It feels like one natural, flowing experience.

You'll receive a full gallery of edited photographs alongside a short cinematic highlight film. Perfect for sharing, reliving, and keeping forever.

Perfect For

Sessions That Deserve More

Weddings

The ceremony, the speeches, the first dance. Captured in both stills and a cinematic edit you'll watch again and again.

Family Sessions

See your children run, hear their laughter. A film adds a dimension to family portraits that photographs alone can't match.

Brand Content

Give your brand static imagery for social media alongside video content for reels, stories, and your website.

Photo & film questions

How it works.

What exactly is a Photo & Film session?

It's stills and a short cinematic film made together, in one sitting. You get the photographs you'd expect, plus a little moving footage (the sound of the sea, a laugh, the way the light moves) that a still frame can't quite hold.

What do I actually receive at the end?

A private gallery of edited stills and a short, gently-edited film. We'll talk through length and feel beforehand so it fits what you have in mind, whether that's a family keepsake or something for a business to use.

Who is this kind of session best for?

Families who want movement and sound alongside their photographs, couples marking a milestone, and small Cornish businesses who want a warmer way to introduce themselves than a flat product shot. If there's a story with a bit of motion in it, this suits.

Where can we film?

Across Cornwall: your home, a meaningful spot along the coast, or your business premises. I'll suggest locations that film well if you'd like a steer, and we'll work around the light and the time of day.

Can I use the film online and on social media?

Yes. The film is delivered ready to share, and for businesses I can provide formats that suit your website and social channels. Just tell me where it's heading and I'll cut it to fit.

How far ahead should I book?

Film takes a little more planning than a straight portrait session, and I keep a limited calendar, so the more notice the better. Do get in touch with your rough timing and I'll let you know what's possible.
