About Lara Jacques Photography

Capturing Natural Personality in a Candid Style. My aim is to capture the real you and ensure you feel relaxed in front of a camera. I love my job!

Why pick me? Because I view Wedding photography as a privilege - not a job. Being a part of such an intimate and special day and experiencing the happiness and the tears is such a memorable experience, even for me. I take the time to get to know both of you and understand what you want from me. I work hard to capture the memories you are making.

I love meeting new people and take time to get to know your family and friends; this relationship is important on the day so people feel at ease with me. This is also why I highly recommend having an engagement shoot – you can experience what it’s like to be in front of a camera and ‘centre of attention’.

I offer natural and unobtrusive photography. I am not loud and ensure I stay in the background, whilst ensuring I get what I need. I usually find I have a few 'helpers' on the day which is always great!

I keep the balance of natural photos but understand that capturing photos with family and the all-important photos of the married couple is important, so I steal you away at times but only for a few minutes to allow you to spend time with your guests. I know how important it is to actually see your guests and not just be in front of the camera!

What do you get?

Up to 10 hours coverage
All edited, full quality photos of your day included in the price
Online password protected web viewing gallery for guests

Lara is an amazing photographer and you will be sorry if you do not book her for your wedding!
Lara did our wedding on the 14th March (one of the last before the crazy lockdown), and the photos are just stunning. Her down to earth manner, easy attitude and all-out caring personality made our engagement shoot and wedding day feel great, and us at ease.
She stayed calm throughout the day and was very helpful (she helped with balloons in the morning!). She kept stating that it is our day and we need to enjoy it. She put us above her photos so she would only do the 'staged' photos when we felt ready.
I had a great dress and she managed to capture its glory in all photos.
As well as the usual photos she caught some amazing natural photos, including of everyone dancing.
A fabulous photographer for your fabulous wedding day.
Safe to say we loved having Lara as our wedding photographer!

Lara took the photographs at our wedding in December 2019 at the Baytree Hotel in Burford.
During the initial meetings, Lara came across as warm, friendly and very enthusiastic and passionate about photography. We had no hesitation in booking her. During the period of time between booking and the actual day Lara kept in contact, confirming details and offering quiet confidence and reassurance.
On the day of the wedding she was a dream and offered far more than a standard photographer would. During the girly preparations in the bridal suite she had a discreet presence whilst capturing some very emotional moments. She offered genuinely welcome advice before the ceremony. As the day progressed both Simon and I were really not aware of her presence yet she seemed to manage to be everywhere and the result has been a very large number of beautiful pictures. We asked that the majority should be informal, capturing the day, and that is exactly what we have got. There are tears, laughter and candid shots of our friends and family.
The best part though was that many of our guests commented on how warm and friendly Lara was - almost like a guest with a camera.
We could not have asked for more and would wholeheartedly recommend Lara to others. A very talented lady.

Lara is down to earth and totally modest which makes her able to put her clients totally at ease. I hate having my photo taken and have had uncomfortable experiences before but Lara made my day super relaxed and coaxed the best out of me. I’d highly recommend Lara for a bridal shoot, family shoot or headshots - she’s just brilliant!
