Hello, I'm Kirsty
Portrait & Wedding Photographer
The one behind the camera… and probably dancing on your wedding day
Hi, I’m Kirsty 🤍
The heart behind Luxe & Wildflower Photography.
I’m a wedding and family photographer based in Burton-on-Trent, capturing love stories across Staffordshire, Derbyshire and beyond.
But more than that — I’m someone who genuinely cares.
The kind of photographer who will fluff your dress, fix your hair, calm your nerves, entertain the kids, and probably end up dancing with your guests by the end of the night.
Because for me, this isn’t just about taking beautiful images…
It’s about being part of your day, your memories, your story.
My approach
 
Relaxed. Natural. Completely you.
I don’t believe in stiff posing or making you feel like you have to “perform” for the camera.
Instead, I create space for you to just be.
Your wedding day or session should feel like a moment to breathe — to laugh, to hold each other, to take it all in.
I’ll gently guide you when needed, but most of the time…
I’m simply capturing what’s already there.
The in-between moments.
The real smiles.
The emotional glances.
The things you didn’t even realise were happening.
 
Likes & Dislikes
A little bit more about me…
 
I love:
- Autumn days, golden light & cosy mornings
- A good coffee (always ☕)
- Slow, countryside walks
- Family time — it means everything to me
- Capturing genuine emotion over “perfect” poses
- Those quiet, in-between moments that feel like magic
 
 
 
I’m not about:
- Awkward posing
- Rushing through moments
- Over-edited, unrealistic images
- Making you feel uncomfortable or unsure
 
 
My Family
My world outside of photography
I’m a mum, a partner, and someone who truly understands just how quickly time passes.
That’s where my love for photography really deepened.
Because I know first-hand how important it is to hold onto the little things —
the way your child laughs, the way your partner looks at you, the way a moment feels.
Family is everything to me… and that’s exactly how I approach capturing yours.
 
Why i love Photography
 
 
It’s never just “photos”
Photography, to me, is about preserving moments that you can never get back.
Your wedding day will fly by.
Your children will grow.
Life will change.
But your photographs… they stay.
They become the memories you come back to, the feelings you relive, the moments you hold onto forever.
Knowing that I get to give that to people —
that’s something I’ll never take for granted.
 
MY STYLE
Natural storytelling with a refined, timeless finish
My work is rooted in storytelling.
I focus on:
Real moments over forced ones
Natural light and soft tones
Emotion, connection, and movement
A relaxed, documentary feel with a fine art finish
Think:
Effortless.
Timeless.
Magazine-worthy — without ever feeling posed.
WHY YOU SHOULD BOOK ME
More than a photographer — your right-hand girl on the day
When you book me, you’re not just booking someone to take photos.
You’re booking someone who will:
Support you from the moment you enquire
Help your day run smoothly
Keep things calm, relaxed and enjoyable
Capture your memories in a way that feels true to you
You’ll find me:
Fixing dresses
Hyping you up
Making you laugh
Lying on the floor for that shot
Blending in like a guest, but capturing everything
Because your experience matters just as much as your photos.
And my goal?
To make sure you not only love your images…
but you loved the entire experience of creating them.
