Behind The Brand

What draws you to wedding photography?

For us, I think it’s the ability to capture and be deeply involved in one of the most meaningful and emotional days in a couple’s life. The joy, love, and connection that radiate throughout a wedding day offers a unique opportunity to tell a powerful story through images. As a wedding photographer, we have the chance to freeze moments in time that hold deep personal significance for the couple, while also showcasing our creative artistry. The blend of emotion, beauty, and storytelling in weddings offers a rewarding challenge that we find deeply trusting & fulfilling.

How would you describe your photography style?

Our photography style is a beautiful blend of editorial elegance and romantic storytelling. It’s creative yet candid, capturing moments as they unfold naturally while also adding our artistic touch to each frame. We orchestrate the perfect shot, guiding our couples with a sense of ease and grace, yet also embracing the genuine, in-the-moment emotions that make each wedding unique. The result is a seamless fusion of polished sophistication and raw, heartfelt authenticity – timeless images that feel both carefully crafted and effortlessly real. Our work reflects our shared passion for love, beauty, and the art of capturing stories in their truest form.

What inspires you creatively?

We find inspiration in the delicate interplay between structured, editorial poses and the raw, authentic moments of connection between our couples. Romance is at the heart of our approach – capturing not only the grand, glamorous moments but also the quiet, fleeting expressions of love. We’re constantly drawn to the artistry of blending style with emotion, creating images that are as beautiful as they are heartfelt. We are incredibly inspired by the use of light, light for us is not just about exposure – it’s about mood, Art, tone, and enhancing the story of love we’re capturing.

What is it that makes an image magical?

If I had to summarise in one word it would be passion. Passion between the subjects and our passion for our art.

For us, the magic is in the connection – between us and our subjects, but also between the couple themselves. It’s that genuine, unfiltered emotion that makes a photograph transcend technique and become something far more meaningful. When you capture that perfect moment of raw love, unposed and real, it’s not just about the image itself, but the energy, the feelings, and the story it conveys. That’s when the image comes to life – when we’ve fully invested our creativity and soul into every detail, creating something timeless that resonates deeply with those who view it.

What advice would you give couples when selecting their wedding photographer?

Our advice to couples is purely to follow your heart in what looks good and speaks to you through the images in their portfolio, and what feels good in terms of your connection with the photographer throughout every interaction. Your wedding is one of the most important, intimate days of your lives and it’s so important to have a photographer you connect and with whom you share a level of understanding of your vision and expectations, someone who you feel wholly comfortable with in creating their best art from your wedding images.

Your dream location to shoot a wedding?

We’re fortunate enough to shoot in so many incredible locations! We really can’t decide which our first choice would be between two very different locations. Italian Dolomites in summer – mountains, sunshine and breathtaking views – or New York Rooftop – this has been on our inspiration board for at least 2 years.

Editor’s Notes

Why we love it…

There’s a certain alchemy in the way Bowness turns a wedding day into visual poetry. Behind the lens are Sarah and Thomas—a creative duo with a deep instinct for composition, mood, and the grandeur of human connection. Their work pulses with allure and atmosphere. Drawing from their backgrounds in both storytelling and aesthetics, they create imagery that feels sculpted from feeling – where light becomes language, and every frame reveals something honest and artful.

For the couple…

For the romantics. For the lovers of light and brilliant composition. Bowness’ photographs move between polished portraiture and intuitive documentary – always with clarity, always with control.
