Welcome to Helen Morcom Photography and thanks for stopping by!
Living in Cornwall with my husband Darren and our gorgeous daughters, I often think that I am a very fortunate person to be living in these stunning surroundings and they inspire me a lot in my day to day work.
I have done many things in life from working behind a bar at an early age, studying criminal law in an evening college class to becoming a car saleswoman for a few years! All through this time I always felt like something was missing. A scratch that needed itching and I couldn't quite find it! You know what I mean? My vices were always sketching/drawing and taking photos with my compact camera. About 4 years ago, for my birthday, my husband bought me my first DSLR and Wow! That was it, I was hooked. That hole was filled in my life. I studied hard and experimented constantly, starting out with editorial & studio work moving onto family portraits, of which I still do in my small home studio. Then one day I got introduced to wedding photography...
The first wedding that I did was roughly 2 years ago and I was there as the trainee to the main photographer and that's where I learnt more & more and the wedding bug got me. Since then I have had the pleasure of shooting many more weddings and I absolutely enjoy every minute of them. Literally, I am there from start to finish! I feel that I can bring a modern journalistic/candid approach to their big day incorporating a classy, classic feel. Every detail being captured down to the smallest pair of earrings. Traditional group photos also respectfully carried out. My main aim is to capture the true essence & emotion of the day as well as the personal experience that the Bride & Groom are experiencing during their special moments. No moment will go unnoticed making their occasion timeless!
