Wedding Photography Training (online or in Hereford)
Learn the craft. Get inspired. Build a wedding photography business you’re proud of.
If you want to learn all things wedding photography – from camera confidence to creative techniques – this is for you.
We’re Marta & Artur (Marta May Photography / THE MAYS). We started in 2011 knowing literally nothing about photography, and built our way up to becoming multi award-winning wedding photographers, recognised as TWIA National Winners (client-voted) – now TWIA judges. Now we teach beginners and early-stage photographers how to level up fast – without fluff, ego, or gatekeeping.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF YOU
- want to learn photography and feel inspired to try new techniques (not just “the safe shots”),
- are considering a career change into wedding photography and don’t know where to start (we were exactly there in 2011),
- are in the first years of business – maybe still part-time – and want to earn more and grow,
- want to add photography as a serious extra income stream (yes… now is a pretty good time),
- want to understand what it actually takes to start winning wedding photography awards.
What you’ll get from our mentoring
skills + confidence + a clear plan
We can work on:
Camera confidence in real wedding conditions (moving moments, changing light, no second takes)
A wedding-day workflow so you always know what to do next
Creative techniques you can actually use at weddings (without slowing you down)
Natural couple direction + group photos that feel easy and look amazing
Light + flash that keeps the vibe (and saves you in dark venues)
Editing consistency so your work looks “you” across a full gallery
Business growth: enquiries, booking calls, pricing foundations, marketing, sales, SEO/GEO, and a client experience that sells for you
Awards mindset: what judges look for, how to curate, and how to build stronger sets over time
You’ll leave with a simple action plan that fits your stage.
Why learn from us
Because we teach what works in the real world – on days that are fast, emotional, messy, and unpredictable.
- Built from zero since 2011
- TWIA judges (since 2024)
- Multi award-winning wedding photographers
- Trusted by hundreds of couples and a wall of five-star reviews
