Surrey Wedding Photographer
Heartfelt Moments & Emotions
Hi, I’m Soven Amatya, a Surrey Wedding Photographer, creating beautiful and heartfelt wedding photographs.
The post-ceremony bear hugs and elation that says ‘We did it!’. I have an eye for narrating those memorable and unscripted “blink-and-you’ll-miss-them” emotions and special moments of magic into your wedding photographs.
These are the moments that will stick with you forever that evoke timeless memories each time you excitedly leaf through your bespoke, beautifully handcrafted wedding album.

Your Story, Your Wedding Photography
Your wedding day is likely to be one of the most important days of your life, one that you’ll put an amazing amount of effort into planning to ensure everything is perfect, a day that you will remember for the rest of your life.
As an experienced and respected wedding photographer in Surrey and within the UK, my friendly and relaxed approach to capturing your wedding story means you are able to relax and have fun with your friends and family knowing that I’ll be unobtrusively documenting your day.
The photographs you receive are not only natural and beautiful but also heartfelt, that embraces all your amazing in-the-moment emotions so you can treasure them for years to come, remembering how you felt as you look through them.
Your Experience When You Book Me As Your Surrey Wedding Photographer
YOUR STORY
Your wedding day; you are surrounded by your amazing family and friends, gathered from all corners of the world. I focus my attention on capturing genuine and true moments.
Our interactions will be fun and full of laughter – from the first meeting, to the day itself and finally the joyful hand-over of your wedding album.
Incidentally, I think receiving your wedding album is a glorious moment, not to mention the perfect antidote for post-wedding blues.
REAL EMOTIONS
My photographs capture moments in time. Weddings can be emotional roller coasters (good ones!).
I aim to capture your feelings – from the pre-ceremony butterflies and thrill of being pronounced as being married, to the delight at the best man’s speech and romance of your first dance – so you can re-live these emotions again and again.
REAL MOMENTS
I have an expert eye for capturing spontaneous moments – raw, undocumented and unscripted. From the joyous, unbridled laughter to the bitter-sweet smiles as you remember those who couldn’t attend. These ‘in-between’ moments narrate your story, beautifully and uniquely.
UNOBTRUSIVE
With so much going on, it’s hard to see the ‘big picture’ of your day. That’s my job. I inconspicuously collect the reactions, gestures, and interactions you don’t see – the nervous groom waiting, the proud father seeing his daughter in her wedding attire for the first time – so you get the complete story.
IMAGINATIVE
As well as an emotional chronicle of events, I strive to create original, creative photographs that take them to a whole new level. It may be the composition, the atmosphere, the lighting – or all three – but these high-impact photos are reminiscent of editorial images in glossy magazines.
PORTRAITS
On a day that’s filled with excitement, with hugs, smiles and words of congratulations after the ceremony, it can be a treat to sneak away for a few precious minutes alone. We can use this time to create some fun and relaxed portraits, your first moments as a married couple captured forever.
Award-Winning Wedding Photographer
I’m an internationally acclaimed wedding photographer based in Surrey, having won a wide variety of international awards for my photography. Such as from Fearless Photographers and The Masters of UK & IE Photography.
There is still one award that means way more to me than any other, one that makes my heart sing with joy, and that is… receiving great feedback messages when couples see their photographs for the first time and relive their wedding day all over again! No award is worth more than the words of a happy couple after their wedding.
I enter awards to keep pushing my skills and keep my photography fresh and modern. You can be confident that you’re in safe hands when you choose me as your wedding photographer.
You can learn more about how these awards on my award-winning photography page.
“We got all of our beautiful photos this week and we are so overwhelmed by how amazingly Soven caught the day and the emotion throughout.
The photographs are delivered on a high quality, simple to use website with a gallery you can share with guests, it’s just so perfect and modern.”
