Lewis Fackrell

Glamorgan & Gloucestershire | United Kingdom

Photography has been a big part of my life for as long as I can remember. As a wedding photographer, I love the affection, emotional connection and endless happiness from an image placed in a lasting album to look back on for decades to come. I love the nostalgic feeling of spotting myself in retro outfits as a child in framed prints around family homes and rediscovering moments of our lives we have since forgot. Can’t help but always feel the warmth and joy of these moments.


Looking over old photos of family & friends, there’s nothing like it, the happiness, laughter and emotions all documented to stand the test of time. Not realising until it was too late, photography runs through the generations of our family… I guess that’s where it all began, receiving my first small camera at a young age, running around the garden snapping away, not much has changed! Documenting people is in my blood.

The South Wales coast and the old villages of the Cotswolds are my haven. Hiking and weekend strolls around the country, discovering new places is also deeply enjoyable with my family. I confess to drinking far too much tea and I indulge in too many of those chocolate hobnobs while editing, very moreish!! Those tasty Percy Pigs also gets a mention, it’s how my partner and I first met… I’ll have to explain one day! Ha.



If I am not photographing a wedding, or spending time with our Little girl and newborn baby, you will most probably find me out cycling and training for more triathlon events; Parkruns are also quite addictive recently but definitely not obsessive with it. Otherwise, I might be enjoying new street food popups; please recommend your favourite. In my twenties, I use to work in TV & Film; I got to work with several top actors and enjoy incredible experiences including being a regular paramedic on Casualty and in a few big movies – “There I am!” haha. You can see a few more of my interests and favourite memories just below too.
