"You have captured every single detail and it’s very emotional looking back - but happy tears!"

"Wonderful person. Fabulous photographer!"

"I will be going through these over and over for the foreseeable."

Hey
there!

scroll

I'm Gemma, a Lancashire based wedding, family and events photographer. I've lived in Preston all of my life and whilst it's alright 'up north' I am very happy to travel wherever my work takes me - just don't make me go too long without a good brew. 

 

I’m in my late 20’s….30 to be exact. I have a wonderful other half, Mark, and I’m Mum to my sassy 3yr old, Madison. We also have a semi-feral, supposedly domesticated cat George, who uses us more as a 5 star hotel.

When I’m not behind my camera, I’m usually behind my laptop or a very large cup of coffee (toddler mum - ‘nough said). Outside of work I love rearranging my furniture, daydreaming about my next decorating project and how I’m going to pitch it to my other half. (Next time, I’m going all in with a PowerPoint).

My happy places are my at home studio, coffee shops and all your stunning weddings.  My favourite time of year is Eurovision - it should be a national holiday and a religion. If I was a Barbie, she would be dressed in neutrals, with big hair and come with a camera, a macbook and good nude lippy. Oh, and a caramel latte in a takeout cup...

 

Did I mention I drink coffee?

 

Whether it’s your big day or a special event, your children or your four legged friends, I'd love to help you capture memories to have framed and cherish forever.

"The ability to get the attention of and keep calm three young children and meeting the needs of our children was just amazing as a mum.

Thank you so much for the memories."

"I 100% recommend using Gemma Marie Photography - could not have been happier with the images."

"We’ve had a really lovely experience with Gemma and couldn’t recommend her more."

My Story...

I graduated from UCLan with a degree in Photography with honours in 2014 and before that I had already studied the subject for 2 years at A-Level in college. Keen to put all of that studying into practice, I began freelancing and then in 2018 I finally made the decision to put down roots and set up as Gemma Marie Photography and build a studio on my very doorstep - I haven't looked back since!

Where am I based?

My gorgeous and spacious home studio is based in Penwortham, Preston. When you're here you can expect a really relaxed environment in a professional setting with all the tea's and coffee's until your hearts content. Whether you're in front of the camera or a spectator, I'll make sure you have an experience to write home about. Be part of the action doing silly faces behind the camera or put your feet up whilst I capture those precious memories.

Studio setting not suitable for you? I can come to you and provide the service in your own home or at an agreed location. Just ask me for more details. 

School  Photos?

Looking for school or nursery or prom photos? I do that too. Or if you have something else in mind I'd love to hear from you. 

 

Whatever session you require, get in touch for a chat and I'll hopefully meet you soon!
