For the past 14 years, I have been photographing weddings and I whole-heartedly love what I do. For me it’s the people, this is what gets me excited about weddings. I’ve photographed smiles that grace our film screens, feet that play on international sports teams and hands that care for lions and giraffes. I’ve captured fathers trying to hold it together, mothers kissing their baby boys and grandparents tears of pride. People are worth celebrating. I’ll never refer to my couples as ‘clients’ – for me this job is highly personal and I anticipate with every couple that books me, I will be fortunate enough to gain new friends. I put my heart and soul into my work, and I’m excited for all the new faces that are left to meet.

10 Reviews for Emma Kenny
Emma truly felt more like a friend than a vendor. She really listened to what we wanted and always offered thoughtful advice when we needed it. Her energy is calm, positive, and reassuring, which made such a difference throughout the day. She somehow managed to work her magic while blending seamlessly into the background. I honestly can’t believe some of the incredible shots she captured.
Emma is extremely professional, and the finished website/gallery you receive is absolutely beautiful and worth every single penny.
Emma was such a reassuring presence throughout, guiding us, holding space for moments of overwhelm and emotion, and truly feeling like part of the day.
We’re not the most natural or comfortable in front of the camera, but she made us feel completely at ease and captured us exactly as we are, relaxed, laughing, and just enjoying the moment, while also getting those all-important, timeless portraits that just highlight how talented she is.
The photos feel so real and truly reflect the spirit of the day and who we are as a couple. We still can’t believe the photos we used to admire are now ours!
From the planning stages, Emma was easy to contact and fast to respond, she put us at ease with how seamless the preparation stage was.
On our wedding day, Emma was a delight to have around. She made us both (and our families) feel very comfortable and captured every element of the day perfectly. Looking through our photographs, we feel a real sense of the fun and joy that we experienced on the day. We love the candid moments that Emma captured and the quality of her photography is simply outstanding. Everyone who has seen our photographs has commented on how beautiful they are!
If you're planning a wedding...BOOK EMMA KENNY!
We honestly can’t say enough good things about Emma. From our very first email, she made us feel completely at ease with her warm, relaxed approach and genuine passion for what she does. She was so kind in the way that she slotted us into our diary when she absolutely didn't have to. We first met her for our engagement photoshoot and it was like meeting an old friend. She is so easy to get along with and made all the laughs and smiles genuine! On the day itself, she was an absolute dream – calm, professional, and somehow everywhere at once without ever being intrusive. I literally think she must be able to teleport or time travel with some of the angles she was able to capture. Her presence helped make our day so fun and special. You spend so much of your wedding day with the photographer so you should pick someone who is fun to be around!
She captured every special moment so beautifully, from the quiet little glances to the joyful dancing. Looking through our photos brought us straight back to the emotion and magic of the day – and we’ve already lost count of how many people have commented on how stunning they are.
Emma has an incredible eye for detail and an ability to find the perfect light and setting in every situation. She made us and our guests feel so comfortable, and the natural, candid shots she took are some of our absolute favourites.
If you’re looking for a photographer who will go above and beyond, deliver exceptional results, and be a lovely presence on your wedding day, Emma is the one. We feel so lucky to have had her there to capture our day – thank you, Emma, from the bottom of our hearts!
As someone who enjoys photography myself, I'm usually much more comfortable behind the camera than in front of it. The idea of being professionally photographed felt daunting at first—but from the moment we met Emma for our engagement shoot, she made both my wife and I feel completely at ease. She has this wonderful way of making you feel relaxed, natural, and never posed. That warmth and reassurance translated into photos that truly reflect who we are, and we actually had fun doing it!
The engagement shoot turned out to be more than just beautiful photos—it laid the foundation for the wedding day itself. Thanks to that initial session, we were already familiar with a few poses and how Emma works, which meant that everything flowed so naturally on the big day. It felt effortless, and that really shows in the final gallery.
Emma’s style is simply fantastic—simple in the best way possible, elegant, and timeless. She captured every little glance, every moment of laughter, and all the joy of the day without ever being intrusive. She was incredibly discreet, yet somehow managed to be present for everything, and the second photographer she brought was just as lovely and professional. She also allowed us to have our own moments without intruding on them which made the day so much more special.
Throughout the entire process, communication with Emma was seamless. She was attentive, responsive, and genuinely lovely to interact with. Our guests adored her, and she had an incredible ability to adapt to the energy of the day and the people around her.
Emma isn’t just a brilliant photographer—she’s someone who becomes part of your day in the best possible way. We would recommend her wholeheartedly, without hesitation. She captured our wedding beautifully, and gave us memories we will treasure forever.
The fact that Emma already knew Larchfield Estate also was a fantastic addition to our day as it made the whole process very efficient.
Thank you, Emma. We feel so lucky to have had you by our side.
