The joie de vivre of MATILDA DELVES WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Here at Most Curious we steadfastly believe in providing future newlyweds with a selection box of stylishly contemporary, independent companies to make each couple's personal dream day come true. For 2017 we are lucky enough to have MATILDA DELVES join us as Photography Sponsor of our London Show, and look forward to showcasing her joyful documentary approach to wedding photography.

Hailing from Kent, Matilda has always had a special relationship to photography. "We moved a lot as a family" she says. "When we were growing up, my sister and I would often get all the photographs out of the albums, to play with them, and to remind ourselves of all the places we had been. It is one of the powers of photography.  Photographs trigger memories: they are memories."

 If the thought of posing for formal wedding portraits strikes fear into your very being, and makes you want to lose your wedding breakfast, then we highly recommend you pay a visit to Matilda's stand. With a familial appreciation for genuine human memories, Matilda's effervescent celebration of life is evident in her warm and cinematic approach to capturing both the epic and the small moments of your special day. Her loving lens treats an ice cream covered page boy's face with the same sense of importance as the best man's speech. She has a talent for perfectly capturing the beauty of natural moments.

We caught up with Matilda recently and asked her a few questions.

Why did you decide to set up your own business?

The freedom of it. I absolutely love the variety, no two days are the same, one day you can be photographing a 80 year old bee keeper and the next being involved and witness to one of the most beautiful love filled days of a couples lives.

What's been the coolest/best moment of your career so far? 

As I'm sitting here typing this interview up, my bags are packed and waiting for the last wedding of the year which will be in Qatar. That pretty exciting, but the coolest and best best moment, or moments are the everyday gratitude that I'm making a living as a busy working photographer. 

Who or what inspires you?

My family.

What words would you use to describe the trends for 2017?

Hmmm! Not sure that I know that much about trends. Spend most of my time, trying not to follow a trend in the photographs I take. If you are following a trend, it dates an image so I try and steer well away!
