Hi! My name is Olivia, but friends call me Liv.

I am a full time wedding, fashion and lifestyle photographer based in Manchester, UK


I first developed a love for photography when I was around age 10 and my Grandad taught me how to use one of his old cameras. Where I grew up in the Lake District, every weekend we would go hiking, and I loved to borrow his camera and snap away as we walked - I was obsessed!


As I got older, I did odd jobs for family and friends, taking photos at events and parties, and used a lot of photography in my studies. I had always loved art, and photography quickly became another passion (my Grandad also taught me watercolour painting and sketching so, in short, I owe it all to him). I went on to study Fine Art at University in Sheffield, and after graduating I moved to Manchester to pursue a career in photography. I have now been a full time photographer for 6 years and I love it!


Through the week I work on fashion campaigns, at weekends it's weddings and family shoots! Between the shoots and the editing I spend my time reading, playing video games, going to gigs, watering my large collection of plants and getting out into nature as much as possible.


I'd love to help you out with any enquiries so head over to my contact page and let's chat!
