Firstly I am a very proud mummy to three incredible children, two gorgeous sons and the most beautiful daughter. They are my absolute world and are the reason behind everything that I do. I have been happily married for nearly three years to the most wonderful man (pictured above) and I am honestly so lucky to have such a happy home and a beautiful family.
Nothing makes me happier than experiencing and capturing love. I have always felt such strong emotions from such a young age and to this day I am still very in touch with my emotions and just obsessed with love and human connection which I think makes me really good at capturing not just a great photo but the heart and soul of a moment.
I have been capturing Wedding Photography & Film for five years, two years full time & like all the greatest love stories, my journey started unexpectedly after filming a friends special day after graduating University; with BA Honours in Television & Film Production. I initially worked in Radio & Television after finishing University working on lots of different promotional productions, before moving on to work as a School Photographer for two years. Zara's Films came about when I realised I needed to have more of a work/life balance and make more time for my children, with lots of hard work and years of perfecting my craft it has blossomed and bloomed into something so beautiful, that I am super proud and grateful for. I have made so many people happy with my work and that is just the best feeling in the world to have been a part of so many magical moments in peoples lives. I am and will be forever thankful for every single booking.
I would describe myself as a super creative, fun & friendly character with a great sense of humour. I am truly a very caring, loving and sensitive soul with a passion for making people feel happy and amazing about themselves. In my spare time I love to travel, thoroughly enjoy live music, theatre and comedy, with my favourite place to unwind being anywhere by the sea. I am incredibly creative and a huge perfectionist & when I have a camera in my hand I am honestly at my happiest and my best! I have a real eye for detail and a moment & I notice and feel everything with all my heart and I like to think that shows through my work.
I am obsessed with how the world works, how people interact and love nothing more than anything old school and romantic. I love to travel and my goal is to see as much of our beautiful world as possible, so if you are planning a destination Wedding I would love to hear from you.
I am very chilled and lots fun as well as being a sucker for a love story. I will probably be the first person to shed a tear at your Wedding & I guarantee you Wedding Photography and Videography that will completely blow you and everyone else away.
I genuinely love and care about my couples so much and your bookings always mean the world to me and my wonderful family, so thank you for just simply being here in the first place and taking the time to learn more about Zara's Films and what it means x
I am available to capture both Wedding Photography & Videography and both combined if you require ( I can simultaneously do both wedding photography and videography ! It is my superpower )
I offer Full day Photography and Videography packages as well as bespoke wedding packages to suit you and your Wedding plans and vibe.
I am also available to book for Maternity shoots, at home newborn baby photo sessions, family portraits as well as photography & videography for business and event purposes.
I like to keep my Wedding packages simple, (Wedding Planning is stressful enough!) as after five years being a Wedding Photographer and Videographer I like to think I know what couples are wanting and what works best for a typical Wedding Day.
However, if you require me to be more flexible with timings and content, that's absolutely fine too. Please get in touch for a personalised quote and let me know your plans for the day and I will send you a brochure with all my prices.
Wherever & whenever there is a moment to be captured, please get in touch x
Keeping it real, natural and effortless is what I am all about.
Classic, elegant, vibrant, heartwarming wedding photography and videography.
Emotional, authentic, wedding photography & film storytelling at its finest.
I am a sucker for a love story and romance, and am obsessed with black and white/ vintage/boho style of editing.
I have mastered being able to achieve this whilst remaining completely chilled, unobtrusive and as candid as possible.
At a Wedding I like to blend into the background as one of the guests, as to reference one of my favourite Mcfly songs, the day is "all about you!
I can pose and set up wedding photography group shots quickly & with ease and when it comes to couple shots, I let you take the lead. My style is very much "you do you" but if you need a helping hand in front of the camera I will be there to gently guide you in the right direction.
I adore candid moments more than anything, so you can trust me to capture every little moment you might miss and to take the most stunning photographs of you and your loved ones effortlessly and beautifully as your professional wedding photographer.
I promise you nothing but perfection. From start to finish, with exquisite, timeless memories that will last you a lifetime.
