WELCOME TO BRISTOL CONTEMPORARY PHOTOGRAPHY

Hi, I’m Charlie, the face behind Bristol Contemporary Photography!

I specialise in alternative documentary wedding photography that focuses on people & emotion.

I want to capture the laughter, the crying, the double chins, the bad dancing, the hugs, the kisses, the calm and the absolute chaos. Weddings are about the people and the moments, the love and the emotion. I want to capture it all.

I’ve been redoing my website at the moment and have been looking back over older weddings from the last few years. It’s been a while since this absolute banger of a day was on my grid and I thought it deserved a little spot!
