Let's burn the wedding rule book and do things your way! Dark. Dramatic. Unapologetically yours.
You've spent your whole life being a bit too much for the room. Too loud. Too tattooed. Too into the stuff that doesn't make it onto the cover of Bride magazine.
Your wedding should be different.
I shoot weddings for the rockers, the goths, the ink covered, the metalheads, the people who'd rather moshed to Rammstein than waltz to Ed Sheeran. Couples who shop at Killstar, throw axes on their hen do, and whose wedding playlist has zero acoustic covers of pop songs.
I'm Khya. I'm one of you. And I know exactly how to photograph people like us.
“This isn’t your nans wedding”
- Khya Watts
No Pinterest boards. No awkward posing. No watered-down version of you.When you book me, here's what actually happens:
We meet. Properly. Over a pint, a video call, whatever works. I want to know your story before I ever pick up a camera on your wedding day.
On the day itself, I'm not barking orders at you or making you hold hands and stare into the distance like a stock photo. I capture the real stuff — the chaos, the laughter, the quiet moments between the noise. The portraits we do take will be dramatic, cinematic, and actually look like you.
Then I turn it around fast. Full gallery in 2 weeks. Not 6 months. Because you've waited long enough.

A decade of experience
Prices from £995If any of this sounds like you, we're going to get on brilliantly.
You've got tattoos. Or you want them. Your wardrobe leans dark. You discovered your music taste aged 14 and never looked back. Your idea of a great weekend involves a gig, a game, an axe range, or all three.
You're planning a wedding that looks nothing like the ones on Instagram. Maybe you're getting married in a gothic venue, a warehouse, a forest at dusk. Maybe you're wearing black. Maybe your guests are too.
Whatever it looks like… I'm in.

Pirate behind the Camera
I'm Khya. Tattooed. Rock music obsessed. Currently living on a narrowboat I'm renovating while I cruise the UK's inland waterways. I've been shooting weddings for over a decade, and I've never once wanted to be the kind of photographer who makes you stand in a field doing forced smiles.
I gravitate towards the weddings that have a bit of edge to them. Dramatic venues. Dark aesthetics. Couples who look like themselves rather than a version of themselves they think they're supposed to be.
Ready to do this differently?
Drop me a message. I don't do generic replies, you'll get a voice note back so you can actually get a feel for who I am before you commit to anything.
