Authentic Wedding Stories. Beautifully Captured.

Event & Wedding Photographer in Essex

Hello, I’m David Jennings, a wedding and event photographer based in Colchester, Essex. Together with my wife Emma, we’re passionate about capturing the joy and emotion of your special day. We love being part of those moments of laughter, happy tears, and the beautiful connections that make your wedding uniquely yours.

We believe your wedding photos should tell the story of your love and celebration, focusing on genuine emotion rather than stiff, formal poses. If you’re dreaming of a day filled with joy, surrounded by your favorite people, and want beautiful images that reflect the true spirit of your celebration, we’d be honored to be your photographers.

Our approach is all about making you feel comfortable and relaxed, so your personalities can shine through in every photograph. We’re here to preserve those precious memories in a way that feels authentic to who you are as a couple. If you’re looking for wedding photographers in Essex, Suffolk or across the UK who truly care about your story, we’d love to hear from you!

We had the pleasure of Jennings Photography capturing our Wedding Day. David and Emma made the planning process very easy. Firstly, we were asked to send them ideas of what we wanted, then they put together their own timeline for the day. Jennings Photography specialises in candid (non-posed) shots, which is exactly what we wanted. At the editing stage, they kept us updated. They sent a link to a couple of sneak peek shots, which got us very excited! It didn’t take long at all for us to receive a link to the full gallery of 500 photos! We made it an occasion to look through all the photos with a glass of fizz on the TV. It was an emotional experience! David and Emma captured the day perfectly from start to finish. They were very discreet on the day. We hardly noticed the photos being taken, which really made those candid shots. We highly recommend Jennings Photography!

I liked the idea of candid photographs and we were not disappointed. Great planning, ideas and information including a timetable before the day with an invite to make any changes, made for a relaxed friendly experience and access to David & Emma’s experience, knowledge and expertise was so appreciated. We cannot thank them enough !!

What a brilliant photographer David is. He recently captured our wedding and did a fantastic job. We were clear that we wanted candid photographs that didn’t disrupt the flow of the day and David delivered 10 fold! We recently received our gallery from him and as we scrolled through each photo we relived the memory and joy of the day with every image captured. We feel so lucky to have photographs that capture the essence, emotion and memory of the day so perfectly. If you are looking for a great photographer for your wedding, who is also a effective communicator, does what he says he is going to do and is a joy to work with David is perfect for the job.
