I am a documentary wedding photographer. If you’re looking for your wedding story to be told as an honest reflection of your beautiful day, then I’d like you to consider choosing me.

Candid: ‘sincere, free from reservation, informal, unposed’

My preferred way of photographing weddings is in a documentary or candid style. Allowing the day to unfold with minimal distraction from me, the photographer, means that the wedding couple and their guests can get along with enjoying the emotions, thrills, and details of the day.

‘The breadth of emotions, love, joy, happiness and fun filled photos you captured will forever be a memory of exactly just how amazing our day was! We wouldn’t change a thing!’ – Shanna and Pedro, South Africa.To Really Remember Something, Don’t Take Pictures Of It, it’s a scientific fact that we make better memories by experiencing them. Essentially, the bottom line is that we commit things to memory better when we give singular focus to the thing we want to remember.

As I explained to two recent mother-of-the-brides, ‘You make your own memories today. Focus on the sights, sounds, smiles and smells and when you look at my photographs afterwards those memories will all come flooding back.’

The idea is that by moving as inconspicuously as possible, photographing your wedding day, I’ll document your story down in photographs for you to remember for many years to come. Your wedding album will become a family heirloom that your grandchildren will be able to look through and experience your wedding day as if they were there themselves.‘On the day you made everyone feel relaxed and at ease and we received many positive compliments from our guests about you. We would not hesitate to recommend your services to our friends and colleagues.’ – Bob and Shelly, UK

The preparation, ceremony and party. With laughter and tears and not 100s of contrived and posed photos, but rather with all that is sincere and true to you.

Notice that everyone is relaxed, thoroughly enjoying themselves and taking in the moments, sights and sounds that make up this very important day. This is my passion, documenting those moments and emotions where people aren’t specifically posing for a photograph, and getting great images that tell their story.‘Thank you for the superb photos… The quality and variety was amazing and the professional yet relaxed nature of your photography meant that all the required photos were taken and more.’ – Raj and Susy, UK

These images you’ve been looking at are my preferred way of telling the story of a day that happens once in a lifetime. There are no second chances, every single moment is an original, never to be repeated, and it’s my joy and passion to capture these moments.‘I thank him for depicting not only love, but commitment, trust, loyalty, friendship, grace, peacefulness, excitement and fun. Not all photographers are able to do that; capture the essence of a 12 year relationship in just one click. The professionalism and quality of images is only half of the amazingness that makes Tim Moolman, his spirit and guarantee is unwavering.’ – Ella-Bella and Mark, South Africa
