Wedding Photography in Cornwall: Authentic Moments, Naturally Captured
Welcome to Checkered Photography. I’m Sarah, a wedding photographer rooted in the heart of Cornwall, based in Redruth. My style is simple and heartfelt—documenting your love story in a way that feels honest, organic and uniquely you.
Whether it’s a windswept embrace on the cliffs of Newquay or a quiet moment beneath the canopy of Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens, I’m here to create a collection of photographs that reflect the raw beauty of your day.
Relaxed & Natural Wedding Photography
Your wedding day should be about love, connection and joy — not about awkward poses or stress. My approach is all about blending into the background, letting your day flow naturally. Together, we’ll create images that are as relaxed and authentic as the two of you.
Cornwall Wedding Photography
Cornwall is more than a backdrop — it’s a feeling. From the sandy shores of Lusty Glaze and Porthcurno Beach to the hidden coves of Kynance and the dramatic cliffs of Huer’s Hut (see photos below), this stunning region is full of inspiration.
I’ve been fortunate to photograph love stories at some of Cornwall’s most beautiful venues, like Cosawes Barton, Knightor Winery and Carbis Bay. Each one offers its own unique charm, whether you’re dreaming of a beachside elopement or a garden wedding tucked away in nature.
I’ve had the joy of capturing incredible weddings across Cornwall. From intimate cliffside elopements to vibrant celebrations at St Agnes and romantic evenings at Mousehole, each wedding tells a unique story.
Hey, I’m Sarah
Hi there! I’m Sarah, the person behind the camera. Originally from Berkshire, I found my forever home in Cornwall in 2013 and I fell for both the scenery and a Cornishman. We tied the knot on a North Cornwall beach, and now I spend my free days exploring the coastline with our three cocker spaniels or freediving in the Atlantic.
Cornwall’s wild beauty inspires my photography. I believe in capturing moments that are free-spirited, unscripted, and full of life — the same way I try to live my own.
Your Story, Told Naturally
This is your story, and I’m here to tell it. No cheesy poses, no over-staged moments—just you, as you are. My photography is about preserving the laughter, the love, and all the beautiful chaos that makes your day unforgettable.
Featured Wedding Locations
Cornwall is home to so many stunning venues and hidden gems. Here are a few of my favourites:
Tremenheere Sculpture Gardens: a perfect blend of art, nature and romance
Lusty Glaze: a private beach setting with breathtaking sunsets
Knightor Winery: rustic charm meets the Cornish countryside
Simple, Honest & Heartfelt
When it comes to wedding photography, I believe less is more. It’s not about staging the perfect shot but about capturing the moments that matter—the ones that make you laugh, cry, and relive your day every time you look at your photos.
