Cumbrian photographer deviating tradition 

HELLO

I'M Joni

I'm a Cumbrian based photographer focusing on authentic, fun, unscripted photography that shows your individuality.  I cover weddings, elopements, family and brand photoshoots.

In the infamous words of Sharon Needles - I look spooky but I'm really nice.
  

read about me

I shoot with a candid/documentary style approach to give you pictures that are honest, unscripted and authentic.  I capture real moments as they unfold.  I don't really pose my clients.  I may give you a little bit of direction but I want you to interact with each other.  Laugh, dance and have fun.  I try to capture moments as they happen organically.
I will be right there alongside you with crap jokes, pop culture references, bad renditions of your favourite songs and anything else that will make you feel at home in front of my lens.

If I sound like the one you've been looking for then head over to my services page for info and pricing.

My Shooting Style

You're the camera shy type.  The feel awkward posing type.  You generally hate having your photo taken type.  You're not your average couple or family and you want to do things YOUR way.  You love to party, have fun and most importantly laugh.  I'm here for those types.
I'm here for the untraditional, unconventional and... 

...For the unordinary
