BEHIND THE LENS

Hello and welcome! I’m Chelyr-Simone. Most call me Chel (you can too). I’m a wedding, portrait, and lifestyle photographer based here in Birmingham, UK.

My approach is simple and relaxed. I create warm, romantic, nostalgic, intimate, and real photographs. I love natural light, the outdoors, the special touches that usually go unnoticed, and capturing people in their element.

There are moments in life that fly by in the blink of an eye. I'm passionate about making time stand still and creatively capturing those authentic moments so you will always have a memento of the ones that mattered the most.

WARM, NOSTALGIC, ROMANTIC, INTIMATE & REAL

your wedding is more than just a day, and you deserve to have timeless photographs to reflect that…

If you’re looking for someone to simply show up and take photos, I’m not the girl for you. From the moment you’re booked in my priority is getting to know you, building a relationship, encouraging you, guiding you, and empowering you so you’re comfortable on your wedding day.

I’m not just a photographer and you’re not just a client. You deserve a gallery full of sweet recollections of some of the most joyous highlights of your wedding day, moments that bring you back to a feeling, a scent, and tell your love story in all its beautiful entirety. I’ve got your back.

Past words from sweet clients

...professional, warm, friendly and loves her job!

Chel goes that extra mile to make sure you’re comfortable no matter how nervous you are and ensures any needs expressed are always met to an exceptionally high standard! If you are looking for a professional, warm, friendly photographer who loves her job and captures you at your best, then Chelyr-Simone is definitely the photographer for you! We are amazed by her work and will be returning to her from now on.

RECENT MOMENTS

One of the things I love about my job is that I get to know so many people from all different walks of life. Before we even meet I get to know so much about a person in their initial client questionnaire. This allows me to get a feel for you and helps me tailor the session to fit you and accommodate you in the best way possible. So whether you’re simply celebrating life or the next season you’re about to walk into, I want you to be comfortable with me and know I’m dedicated to making your experience a bespoke one.
