PHOTOGRAPHY to
CELEBRATE you
Hello, I’m Laura May, the photographer behind Laura May Photography. I’m a wedding and lifestyle photographer known for capturing authentic connections through timeless storytelling.
Based in Shropshire and photographing weddings, families, and creative businesses across the UK (and occasionally overseas), I bring an effortless yet vibrant approach to my work. For me, it’s about more than beautiful images - it’s about preserving the love, joy, and connection that make your celebration uniquely yours.

Storyteller.
I’m a natural storyteller, drawing on years of experience capturing life’s biggest milestones. My journey began with a camera gifted by my grandfather - the man who first sparked my creativity and inspired my love for timeless imagery.
My love for family runs deep, and I understand how important it is to document the moments that matter most. That same care and intuition now guide every family session and wedding I photograph.
Trusted.
This love for documenting personal milestones has stayed with me. From photographing my very first wedding for a friend back in 2017 to building Laura May Photography into the trusted brand it is today.
My background in people-focused roles taught me how to adapt quickly and read the energy of a room, allowing me to blend seamlessly into wedding celebrations. It’s an approach rooted in calm, trust and genuine connection - values you’ll feel throughout my wedding experience.
Nostalgic.
With a deep appreciation for nostalgia and sentimentality, I bring a timeless, vibrant approach to every celebration I photograph.
My couples aren’t just looking for beautiful images; they want to feel at ease, celebrated, and entirely themselves. I’m drawn to couples who embrace their love openly, surrounded by the people who matter most, knowing I’ll capture their day in a relaxed yet refined style.
You can explore some of my recent full-day weddings to see how that translates in real life.
BEHIND
the LENS
As a Shropshire wedding photographer capturing love stories across the UK, I believe the best photographs come from a place of connection; noticing the small glances, the big laughs, and everything in between.
If that’s what you’re looking for, I’d love to tell your story in a way that feels timeless, vibrant, and entirely yours.
When I’m not at a wedding, you’ll probably find me at a live gig, wandering a windswept coastal path, camping with Reggie, lifting at CrossFit, or sinking into a vinyasa flow on a beachside yoga retreat.
“Obsessed with the photos and proudly showing them off to literally anyone, whether they've asked or not”
