JESS BUXTON PHOTOGRAPHY

WHO AM I?

Hey, I’m Jess…

I’m from Belper, which means Beautiful Retreat.

I am the first woman in my family to graduate.

My favourite artists are Florence + the Machine and Hozier.

I write and direct pantomimes during the winter.

I bartend in my spare time.

Cream cheese frosting is great.

I can’t dance for shit.

If you’re looking for a “sit nicely and smile at the camera” photographer, you won’t find one here! It’s my mission to make you feel silly whilst also making you feel at home. I want to catch those glimpses of love and adoration between you. Photography is not about perfection, it is about the every day – the reason you chose this person to be yours. It’s a Sunday morning or a Wednesday afternoon. It’s that feeling when you glance over to them and they’re already looking at you – that’s what I’m chasing! Weddings aren’t about archaic traditions anymore – they’re about you! I want your photos to be as “you” as they can be, not what your Great Aunt In Law thinks they should be!

Want to get ready together? Yes, let’s do it!

Don’t want to do posed family photos? Cool!

Don’t like cake? That’s fine!

Make sure you put aside sometime to be alone together – hell, you just got married so go and make out somewhere! Then we can go take some badass photos and I’ll be a very happy third wheel. Your Wedding Day is the reflection of your love story and the only day where you get to do 110% what you want, no questions asked.

WHAT'S TO LOVE?

  1. Love is love however you identify – you don’t need to ask here!
  2. Embrace the untraditional! Weddings aren’t about archaic traditions anymore – they’re about you!
  3. Super relaxed but hands on approach – I’ll make sure all the groomsmen are kept in line but I’ll also be crying during speeches and vibing on the dancefloor

WHAT MY CUSTOMERS SAY...

Jess photographed our wedding in September and we could not recommend her enough. She made us feel relaxed and comfortable, whilst also being super organised and professional. We could not be happier with our photos. I hope that we will get to work with her again in the future. Thank you Jess!

We booked Jess for October wedding & from start to finish she was incredible! Our wedding wasn’t exactly traditional but Jess fully embraced that and captured so many shots, literally! We highly recommend her. All our guests loved her and our photos are amazing! Thank you Jess for putting up with all our silliness & being part of our day

We will treasure the photos we have from our wedding from Jess forever. They perfectly capture every aspect of the day. I would recommend her in a heartbeat
