About

Wedding day and civil partnership photography has evolved over recent years to include a wider variety of approaches to documenting the visual story. Ivan specializes in reportage style photography, capturing the essence of each couple’s preparations and celebrations. The mix can include a series of relaxed portraits, simple formal group shots and contemporary shots of the venue and guests, according to each individual couple’s wishes.

Ivan’s personal style is creative, natural and relaxed. Unobtrusively blending into the background, he will capture the many moods and moments of your day in a sequence of one-off shots – romance, laughter, quiet, candid - just as they happen. His creative eye and imaginative use of location combine with solid knowledge of digital technique.

His passion and professionalism translate into a series of stunning images from which to choose what best suits your individual requirements. Ivan's philosophy is based on authenticity - real people celebrating real life emotions and moments.

Couples often say how fast their big day flies, so capturing events tailored to their dreams is his top priority. Your wedding photographs will be lasting memories, and Ivan creates wedding albums that will be treasured forever.

Increasingly, the photographer may get involved in the early stages of wedding planning, which often helps couples get a clearer idea of how they want the day to work. Ivan is happy to discuss your personal style and vision to create the brief – then use his skill and passion on the day, to capture the magic.

Based in West Sussex and the south of France, his geographical coverage can extend to all UK locations and abroad. He is a member of the Society for Wedding and Portrait Photographers If you are looking for an experienced and sensitive wedding photographer, contact Ivan Catterwell ivan@icapturephotography.co.uk
