Get to know me
Hello. I'm Meg.
a Shropshire based wedding photographer with a gritty documentary approach, a love for natural light, and a deep connection to the land I grew up on.
More about meg.
Raised in the heart of rustic Shropshire, surrounded by rural life, I developed an early appreciation for the raw, rugged beauty of the countryside — and for the honest moments that happen when no one’s watching. That same down-to-earth perspective shapes how I photograph weddings: with sensitivity, creativity, and a focus on capturing what’s real.
My style is documentary at heart — natural, emotive, and story-driven. I’m drawn to the unfiltered in-between moments, the gritty, beautiful chaos, the tears, the belly laughs, and the subtle details you might not even notice on the day. That’s what makes your story yours, and that’s what I love to photograph.
"I’m lucky enough to do what I love for couples who want more than just pretty pictures — they want storytelling. They want their wedding captured with honesty and heart."
THE Photographer that makes YOU feel AT EASE.
I’ve always been passionate about photographs — long before I ever picked up a camera. Our family home was full of albums and framed memories, and I grew up understanding how powerful a single image can be.
My editing style: rich, warm, a little bit raw — timeless without being overly polished.
If you’re looking for a local documentary wedding photographer in Shropshire, Cheshire or North Wales — someone who understands rural life, puts you at ease, and captures the day exactly as it felt — I’d love to hear from you.
P.S I do travel for destination weddings & anywhere in the UK (do love Scotland & Ireland or send me to the Lakes eeek) - but truly, I'm a home bird.
"Photography isn’t just about capturing what’s in front of you—it’s about how you choose to see what's before your eyes. Light, composition, imagery and perspective turn an ordinary scene into something extraordinary. Creativity & authenticity is what makes an image feel like you."

“WHERE do we start? It has taken us longer than we wanted to write a review for Meg, because honestly, we don’t know how to emphasise just how amazing she is into words. We were always drawn to Meg’s romantic photography style, but what really helped us make our decision, was how comforting, natural and at ease she made us feel. Meg has this incredible skill that really allows you to relax and feel in control of your movements in front of a camera. It wasn’t like working with a wedding supplier, or feeling the pressure to follow the ever evolving trends of wedding poses and staged scenes, it was like playing dress up with one of your old girlfriends!
Every person that we shared our wedding photos with, commented on how much of a beautiful and incredible job Meg did as a photographer. Not only capturing the special moments and the style, but also the genuine emotions and the loving energy reflected in every photo we have.
Meg wasn’t just key holed onto my newly wedded husband and I, she bonded with my bridesmaids like she was part of the bridal party, the vibe throughout the morning really was just as I had hoped for and this isn’t a skill that comes with years of training, Megs personality was just everything I needed and I will be forever in debt for just how exceptional she was at capturing the most important day in our lives.
If you’re considering Meg Higginson Photography for your special day, I really couldn’t recommend her more highly. Having witnessed hundreds of weddings, and now experiencing it myself first hand too, I can truly say that Meg really puts her all into her work and stands out.
She was incredibly respectful to the venue and just as friendly with the other suppliers, creating a friendly and happy atmosphere all around. This was something that was really important to us, and even without us mentioning it, Meg naturally delivered. At no point did we doubt that we were her main focus, even indirectly.
She doesn’t just capture your special moments, she really helps show the story behind each shot and helps the day flow naturally.
Thank you for not only being our photographer, but for leaving a lasting imprint that we will never forget.”
