Wedding photography for couples who'd rather enjoy their day than spend it posing.

Photographing weddings across Yorkshire & the UK

Hey, I'm Emily


I'm the face behind Emily Bailey Photography, and I'll probably spend more time with you on your wedding day than most of your guests!


I love photographing weddings naturally, without turning your day into a production. I'll keep things relaxed, have a laugh with your friends and family, and quietly capture everything from the big moments to the little ones you might miss.


If the thought of standing in a field for hours posing makes you cringe, you're exactly the kind of couple I love working with.

If you're planning a wedding that's all about celebrating with your favourite people, you're in the right place.


Maybe the thought of being in front of the camera makes you feel a little awkward, or you've already said, "We just want natural photos—we're not very posey." You'd rather spend your day laughing with your friends, hugging your family and enjoying every moment than standing in front of a camera for hours.

If that sounds like your kind of wedding day, let's chat about your plans.

Why Choose me?



While everyone else is chatting after the ceremony, I'm looking for your mum wiping away a tear when nobody else notices.


✓ I never leave you wondering what to do.

✓ Family photos are organised quickly.

I blend into the background for most of the day.

✓ You'll receive sneak peeks within 24 hours

✓ Unlimited planning support before the wedding.

✓ Calm presence when timelines inevitably change.


Think of me as the calm, camera carrying friend who blends into the background making sure genuine moments, laughs and little details are captured beautifully.

 

Wedding photography from £300 for ceremony coverage. £850 for half day Coverage and £1,200 for Full day coverage, with bespoke coverage available for every kind of celebration.

 

One of my favourite moments isn't the first kiss. It's usually about ten minutes later, when you've finally realised you're married and the nerves disappear. That's when the biggest smiles happen.

Emily made everything so comfortable from our pre-wedding shoot to the end of our wedding day! The previews are amazing and we are so excited to get the rest of our photos. Nothing was ever too much trouble, Emily even helped get the kids shoes on when time was running away! Our day would not have been the same without Emily and we are so happy we found her to capture our day 🤍
