Karl Risely Photographer, Photojournalist, Digital Artist

Karl Risely, is a a photographer, photojournalist and Digital Artist based, when not travelling, in Newquay, Cornwall.
He has photographed all over the world from the jungles of Central America to the deserts of Iraq and Afghanistan.
He has covered weddings all over Europe and was one of the first photographers in Cornwall to do a 'trash the dress' session, which was published in the press.


Karl has a passion for natural reportage wedding photography, which he feels, is the best wedding photography in the world, the type which will bring back the same feelings and emotions of the day in many years to come, and will not disturb the bride and groom too much during the day.
Karl offers wedding photography coverage throughout the UK and internationally.
Your wedding day is Karl's priority!


Remember, when the last bottle of champagne has been opened, the glasses and
wedding hall are all empty, the streamers are being swept up and the guests have
all gone home.
The only thing left after the wedding is yourselves, the rings to signify your undying love and the photographs to show your children, your grand children and generations to come, that you both made a decision which not only established their very existence but proved that marriage was, and still is, a bond that lasts forever and should never be broken.
My promise is to produce a set of images that will tell the story of one of the most special days of your lives and produce the same emotions, happiness and romantic feelings each time you open your ‘storybook’ album.

Even in 50 years from now!

Adrian I Barnett Photography

When I started learning the art of Wedding photography under my father’s guidance back in the 80’s, black and white images were considered “yesterday” and nothing was worth anything unless it was bursting with colour – bright and vivid.
Now look how Black and White photography is considered classy and timeless – but there is nothing wrong with a mixture of both. Simple, elegant photography will never date.
There was a fashion (short-lived) for a close up of the bride and groom’s faces to be superimposed within a brandy glass., and now that is considered out-dated along with flares and mullet haircuts. The same with “colour-popping” – all the rage a few years ago, where a monochrome image has selective colour parts.My point is, however “different” you might want to your images to look – make sure they don’t look different like everyone else’s photos.
Choose something comfortable, and a good wedding photographer will be your best guide on this – they should have years of experience.
The most unique thing about your wedding is YOU – choose your wedding photographer carefully (please don’t leave it to an untrained person) – and whatever fashions come and go with weddings – nothing can beat that beautiful photograph, simply taken, that says it all.
That NEVER changes.

Momentos Photography

Momentos Photography are Professional wedding photographers based in Devon, United Kingdom with a single passion -taking amazing pictures of people. Their personal style of photography goes against the overly posed feel often associated with wedding pictures and is more modern, natural and fun. Both Manuel and Josh like taking pictures of people in their most natural ways, achieving great captures of the couples big day!

Manuel didn't ever plan to become professional photographer but has always had a camera close for a very long time. Early in 2012 he was certified by the Photography Institute of London as a Professional Freelance Photographer and is a member of the Royal Photographic Society of Bath, National Photographic Society, The Guild of Professional Photographers and The Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers. Momentos Photography, love helping people to relax in front of the camera, resulting in natural, spontaneous and creative images. They want you to be proud of your photographs!!. Josh is also a Professional Freelance Photographer, he works brilliantly alongside Manuel as his assistant and where required as a second photographer.

Both Manuel and Josh love reportage wedding photography because they believe that nothing staged can ever equal the value and emotional impact of a genuine, spontaneous moment. Their photography tells the true story of your day.

The approach at Momentos is very simple- full day coverage, in a story-telling style- from getting ready through to the evening dancing, plus some family group shots and some stylish Bride and Groom portraits. You’ll find that the staff at Momentos are as excited about your big day as you are, you’ll enjoy them being there and your images will reflect that. If you don’t require full day coverage they also have tailor-made packages to suit your requirements and budget.

Based in Devon in the South West of the UK. services are offered in Devon & Cornwall, Somerset and Dorset and can look to travel further afield upon requirement.
Before your big day the photographers will spend some time with you- wandering, chatting and making some images in a gorgeous outdoor setting of your choice. The difference this makes to how you feel on your wedding day and how relaxed you’ll look in your pictures is unbelievable- that’s why Momentos include a complementary engagement shoot with all packages.

Although they are primarily story-telling style photographers -capturing what happens around them, Manuel and Josh like to spend some time discussing your requirements for the day, your family group shot requirements and anything else you think they should know. The more you let them know, the better they can capture what matters the most to you. Momentos also have an events Coordinator  Sarah works closely with couples and is at hand to help advise couples, guide them through the options available and book photo shoots.

The style at Momentos means so much more that photographing the ceremony and some group shots and they know that many of the most wonderful moments happen outside of the main part of the day. Starting with the both of you getting ready and continuing until an hour after your first dance- that might be an eight hour day or it might be a thirteen hour day; it doesn't matter, so long as you story is captured!
