Documentary wedding & Family photographer, Melton mowbray
Hi, my name is
Emma Connor
33 years old
virgo
Tea addict & horror fan
Hey there! I’m Emma, and I live in a charming village on the outskirts of Melton Mowbray in Leicester with my husband Steve, our slightly demonic but adorable daughter Esme, and our two energetic cocker spaniels, Sasha and Luna. I am also expecting our second little bundle in November 2026.
I’m all about relaxed, natural, and fun photography, capturing the quirky, spontaneous, and emotional moments that make your wedding or family session uniquely yours. Expect plenty of laughs, happy vibes, and memories that you’ll treasure forever.

Documenting love stories, family chaos, and all the magic in between.
Whether it’s an intimate celebration or a family fun day out, my goal is simple: to make your day enjoyable, stress-free, and full of magic. I stay completely authentic, blending in to capture genuine smiles, laughter, and moments you didn’t even know were happening.
I travel across the UK to photograph love stories wherever they unfold, and I treat each wedding, family session, or newborn shoot as the unique adventure it deserves to be.

Our Summer of 2023
As many of my couples already know, we welcomed our beautiful baby girl, Esme, in July 2023. After 53 hours of labour, it ended in an emergency forceps delivery but it was all worth it when we finally met her on July 7th, weighing 7lb 10 oz. It truly was the most intense and amazing experience of our lives.
I was so lucky to have my incredible friend, Jade, who owns Inspirique Photography, as our birth photographer. She also took our family and newborn photos when Esme was just 5 days old. Jade is absolutely amazing at what she does, so if you’re looking for a newborn photographer, she’s definitely the one to go to!
Jade also runs the incredible wedding styling company, The Wedding Attic. It’s a truly amazing company, Jade's creative flair and attention to detail is just beyond words. I’m lucky to work as an assistant stylist, helping bring stunning visions to life for every couple.
Our Amazing Video by Grace
Visions of Grace is my absolute favorite videographer, she is epic and I love her so much. We are literally the perfect team.
Some amazing shots from my wedding!
We had the incredible BGS photography do our wedding photos and he was absolutely incredible! Very weird being on the other side of the camera haha. If I am unavailable for your date, he will be the guy I recommend! He is fab!
In Honour
It was my Grandad who got me into photography. He would take me onto the fields beside his mobile home and give me his camera, let me take photos of whatever I found interesting. He lived in Salisbury until 2010 when he then went to live in The Royal Hospital in Chelsea and became a Chelsea Pensioner. He was so proud of me when I decided to take photography up as a career and helped me buy my first editing computer.
I dedicate my business and all my hard work to my grandad who grew his wings on the 27th January 2020. I will never forget you and I will love you and think of you every day, Love you always, Your Emmy-Lou xxx
