Hello we are David and Christine and we are multi award winning Cornwall and Devon Wedding Photographers. We have a wealth of experience shooting Wedding and Landscape Photography in Cornwall and Devon. We love working with natural light, capturing Weddings, Micro Weddings and Elopements in a unique and unobstrusive way.
Please feel free take a good look through our Cornwall and Devon wedding galleries and portfolio at some of what we consider to be our favourite documentary wedding photography from the 10 years we have been wedding photographers in Cornwall. It's been difficult to select just a small handful of images from the 10 years worth of weddings we have photographed so we promise to pop back in here and update this gallery from time to time.
Exceptional customer service, from the first email until after delivery of your images. We are on hand to answer any questions, and share with you our experience of the wedding industry. Myself and my lovely wife Christine as your Photographers we don't use anyone else so you can be assured of our unique style.
Scroll down to see when I have a booking, If I am booked send me an e-mail anyway as I have a number of photographers who I can recommend. Bookings are secured with a 100 retainer but I will hold a date for up to 2 weeks while you decide.
Alchemy Photography has a HP Z2100 Photo large format printer for printing onto Canvas or Photographic paper. By controlling the whole process from taking the picture to the final printing I can ensure that prints and Canvas prints are of the highest quality with accurate colour and detail reproduction.

David was very accommodating with having to change our date and venue (x3) due to Covid. He was very professional and got some lovely shots of all of us and was happy to take the time to walk down to the beach from the gardens, he had some great ideas and was also happy to listen to what we wanted. We were particularly impressed with value for money as we eloped we went for the 2 hour package which was ample for us, but David was happy to stay a little longer if necessary. We received our photos within the week and we are delighted with them! Looking forward to our A2 canvas which was included in the price, thank you David!

We were determined to find a local photographer that knew the area well and upon seeing some of Davids recent work we instantly knew this was the photographer for us. There was great communication prior to our wedding and all of our individual needs for our tiny registry office wedding were taken into account. We were both so nervous at the thought of having our pictures taken but David created a relaxed environment and we really enjoyed ourselves! We highly recommend David and if you choose him for your wedding your special moments will be perfectly captured.

Used David and Christine (Alchemy Photography) and they did a excellent job capturing our wedding day and would highly recommend them to anyone who is in the market for a pair of friendly Photographers with alot of experience. Their work is good and the price is value for your money, very easy going and flexible people, you wouldn't be disappointed. Note: They adapted to the covid guidelines (at the time 15 at a wedding) very well and still did a great job.

A big thank you to David for the lovely photos he snapped of our wedding on 23rd December 2020. Despite the weather being miserable, he captured some fantastic shots and we are so pleased with the album we've been sent! David was very friendly and relaxed whilst also being professional at the same time! Another huge thank you to his lovely wife Christine for joining him as a witness at our wedding, and for taking a few snaps and holding our bits and bobs whilst we were having snaps on a very wet beach! Thanks again to you both. Would definitely recommend!

My husband and I were recommended David and Christine and am so glad we chose them to capture our wedding day. From the first time we met them, they made the whole experience straight forward and relaxed. Christine came to our home before the wedding and took some beautiful photos and thankfully she keeps a crochet hook in her handbag, so we were able to get my dress buttoned before I walked up the aisle! David met my husband-to-be at our wedding venue and took some lovely, relaxed pictures of our friends and family waiting for the bride to (eventually) arrive!

We are so glad we used them, we definitely had our work cut out though, whittling down the photos that would make it into the album! There wasn't one photo (in almost 500) that we wouldn't have chosen! We can't thank them enough for capturing so many memories in such a relaxed but professional way and would definitely recommend their service.

David and Christine have provided my daughter and son-in-law with an amazing service as wedding photographer's. Due to Covid and the ever changing government guidance there were often changes to plans and David and Christine proved flexible and responsive. The quality of the sneak preview we have already seen is beautiful and we already have an insight into their creativity and the quality of their work. We cannot thank them enough for working so quickly, thoroughly and unobtrusively throughout our family day. I would confidently recommend them to others.

David and Christine are fantastic. From the initial enquiry about wedding photography, all the way through the process to the wedding day itself and even afterwards you will always be kept in the loop about what's happening. Our wedding photos are stunning, and we could not have asked for anything better. We love the style of photos, just the right mix of relaxed and natural to staged and professional.

They are both very lovely and friendly people and will make you feel completely at ease through your entire day. We are so glad we asked David and Christine to photograph our wedding, cannot recommend them enough. You will not be disappointed!

David was a wonderful photographer for our wedding day. Though the weather was wet and windy, David kept a positive spirit and even showed his adventurous side when he encouraged us to head to the coast for some photos there. We were about ready to give up on the idea, but luckily we did not! We got some absolutely gorgeous photos that really captured the landscape. Thank you David for a wonderful and adventurous day!

We used David & Christine who were absolutely amazing. On the lead up to our special day and during the day, they remained professional, friendly and approachable. They have an obvious love and passion for their work which clearly showed through their creative skills and talent. They worked alongside us helping us to plan and organise what photos we wanted and imagined, giving us lots of useful hints, tips and ideas when required.

With changeable and unpredictable weather they were extremely flexible and spontaneous helping us smoothly rearrange our day to get all the photos we wanted plus more. Their final photos were better than we could have ever of imagined, all of high quality and showing a huge variation of photo styles. We thoroughly enjoyed having them part of our special day.

Despite being 2 people who don't like having our photo taken we felt at ease throughout and shared many happy, funny and emotional memories with them both, I would highly recommend them to everyone.

It was a pleasure to have David and Christine be a part of and photograph our wedding day. A lovely couple. They captured beautiful natural photos with a friendly and relaxed approached. The contact with David before and after our wedding was also great and very punctual, putting us at ease. We couldn't recommend Alchemy Photography enough and thank both David and Christine very much for capturing perfect photographs of our special day.

As we live in the West Midlands, but we getting married at Pendennis Castle in Falmouth, choosing our photographer was always going to be a bit of a punt in the dark. After doing some research online, I came across the Alchemy website and loved what I saw. The landscape shots were stunning and the candid photos they were able to capture of guests showed that they had a laid back and relaxed style which put people at their ease.

We were planning a James Bond style theme for our wedding and David and Christine's enthusiasm for doing some themed photographs for us was fantastic, they were as excited about these as we were. On the big day David and Christine were in Falmouth for us bright and early to get photographs of the preparations and were with us all day into the evening so it was a long day for them but they never appeared to tire of us or seemed like they wanted to rush off.

All our guests have told us how impressed they were with how professional David and Christine were and that they were so at ease with their presence that they forgot they were there some of the time, which allowed for some great candid shots from the day. This is exactly what we wanted. The James Bond style shots they did for us blew us away when we received the discs after returning from honeymoon.

They clearly took this project to heart and had worked hard in taking the photographs and in the editing to bring our ideas to life. We can't thank them enough for giving us truly unique memories from our special day. I would recommend David and Christine to anyone in a heartbeat.

David and Christine were absolutely fantastic from day one when we booked them for our wedding so laid back which we wanted, informative & the photos that have taken of our wedding day are stunning ! Even though the weather wasn't on our side we got every single picture we wanted. Thank you so much for everything we would highly recommend

Dear David The picture arrived safe and sound. We are absolutely delighted with it. What an amazing picture! We are blown away by the light and movement in it, quite an achievement in the still. It will be placed in our bedroom so we can wake up to it every morning. Not quite the real thing but a very acceptable substitute. Thank you for the excellent service.
