ABOUT
the BRAND
More Than Photography
“I have done a portrait session with Tina. We had such a great time! Tina is a perfectionist in her craft and service. From the hair and makeup, styling, to getting the final photos, everything is perfect. I had so much fun.“

Outstanding work Ethics
“This company work ethics are outstanding! The engagement shoot was brilliant with plenty of variety of locations and really captured the essence of my relationship with my husband.
On the day of my wedding, complete dedication and professionalism. The day didn’t exactly go to plan, but I must say it made such a difference that they were flexible and efficient.“

Our Style
Known for our organic storytelling, heartfelt documentary style, and artistic flair, The Snapshot Café captures weddings and portraits with a seamless blend of candid moments and timeless elegance. We are specialised in preserving emotions—every laugh, tear, and serene moment—while guiding couples and guests for effortlessly beautiful, natural portraits.
We believe love stories should be told authentically, great photography and videography are felt as much as seen, and the best moments happen when you forget the camera is there.
Our Story
Our story is at the heart of The Snapshot Cafe—a love story that evolved into a business built on shared creativity and passion. Tina, a fashion designer graduated from Central Saint Martins with a background in photography, and Edward, a journalist with an eye for detail, began our journey together by exploring what we could create as a team. Wedding photography felt like the perfect place to start.
Edward first assisted Tina with lighting, but our bond and shared vision quickly turned us into a dynamic two-photographer team. After a year, we realised that photos could only capture part of the magic. We expanded to offer videography services because we understood that video tells a deeper, emotional story—especially the heartfelt vows and speeches from friends and family.
Both of us are trained in photography and videography, which means we can seamlessly switch roles during the day. Our flexibility is something that couples appreciate and find helpful when capturing every moment.
Tina’s eye for beauty and detail pairs perfectly with Edward’s focus on capturing the broader story and atmosphere in a non-intrusive way. Our complementary skills reflect our unique backgrounds, and together we create a wedding photography and videography experience like no other. We are truly a dream team, dedicated to telling your love story through every frame.
Our Method
At The Snapshot Cafe, we blend documentary storytelling with artistic portraiture to capture both the genuine moments and timeless portraits of your special day. Our relaxed, non-intrusive approach allows moments to unfold naturally, ensuring we capture your true emotions—whether it’s a laugh, a tear, or a quiet moment shared between you two—without directing or staging the scene.
From the start, we take time to understand your personalities and vision, aiming to create a seamless, enjoyable experience. Tina’s passion for capturing details and Edward’s storytelling ability complement each other, resulting in a unique collection of candid and structured shots that tell your love story.
We know how fast-paced your wedding day can be, which is why we work as a two-photographer team. This allows us to be in multiple places at once, ensuring no moment is missed. Whether it’s intimate preparations or grand celebrations, we’re there to capture it all. Additionally, our videography services complement the stills, letting you relive heartfelt vows, speeches, and emotions in motion.
Booking is simple: Inquire, and we will reach out within 48 hours. After an initial consultation, you can secure your booking with a deposit. We stay in touch throughout the preparation period, confirming details two weeks before the wedding. On the day, we arrive during preparations, capturing details and moments, while staying flexible for any surprises.
After your wedding, we will schedule a reveal session in 2 months, where you can view your video and select photos. You will also have the chance to order albums and enlargements.
More Beautiful than we Imagined
“Working with them was such a great experience for us. We were able to plan out the entire shoot via email and on the day of the actual shoot, everything went exactly as we had planned. The pictures and video turned out more beautiful than we could ever have imagined. We are so grateful we found The Snapshot Cafe!“
Mr. & Mrs. Schmidt
