Norwich Castle Wedding Photography
Getting married at Norwich Castle?
Hey, Im Matt – A slightly tall, slightly geeky Wedding photographer from Norwich! I specialise in bold, fun, candid & documentary-style Wedding photography with a timeless look and feel.
I love laid-back weddings where the focus is on you, your day and the people around you. Capturing those moments and emotions, and all the silly stuff in between.
And I love Norwich Castle! It’s probably my most photographed venue, and I know it like the back of my hand. It’s also the best registry office in Norfolk (don’t tell any of the other registry offices, they’ll get jealous!)
So, if youre looking for an experienced wedding photographer for your Norwich Castle Wedding, hit that contact button! Id love to chat.

Norwich Castle How I work
Rock up & be Awesome!
If I’m with you for 3 or 12 hours, I’m there to tell your story – capturing all the action as the day unfolds. All the emotions, the laughs, the first looks, grins, smiles and tears to the high-fives!
I have a relaxed approach, never putting anyone under pressure, leaving you and your guests to be themselves.
My style is friendly and unobtrusive. After all, it’s your wedding day, not my photoshoot. It’s not just about the big moments, but the little ones in between.
We booked Matt to capture our spring wedding in Norwich and we are so glad we did! We could not be happier with the photos, they are beyond stunning and we have loved showing them off to all our family and friends.
One of the main parts of the day that my friends and family still talk about is the photos! He managed to somehow be completely invisible and capture moments without anyone knowing he was there! I particularly love all the candid photos we have of people smiling, talking and enjoying their day. These are some of the things we missed out on while being the bride and groom. The photos he took made us feel like we were always there.

I wish I could rate higher than 5 stars!
Matt shot our wedding day at Norwich Castle and Dragon Hall, and the photos are just phenomenal, we’re both so happy with the whole gallery and the comments from friends and family have been glowing.
Throughout the process, Matt was excellent in communicating with us, getting a feel for our interests and how we’d like the photos to be shot. It was super easy to get all invoices paid up and get the show on the road!
On the day, Matt was superb. Friendly, approachable and utterly hilarious, he really made it such a fun time. We’re not the types to take many photos, so it was a bit daunting to have so many in such a short space of time, but Matt put us at ease and made it easy.
I’d recommend him to anyone, without a second thought!’

I highly recommend Matt Dartford Photography to anyone looking for a a high-quality, enjoyable experience. Matt has a great command of people, which really came in handy at my wedding... read more at Dunston Hall Hotel - he was able to corale people into the right places at the right time in a positive manner. I was so impressed with his ability to capture both the standard formals and the natural photographs that look amazing. We all know how difficult it is to capture a nice, in the moment photo! I've added some of my favourite pictures that he took of our day.

Fantastic! Matt is a lovely chap and a very talented photographer. Throughout the process we trusted Matt completely on what to do, when to get involved and that his photos... read more would be amazing. So many of our guests complimented him afterwards, and we can see why. When he needed to get involved (group shots and the ceremony) he was there, when he needed to be in the background, he was and captured great snaps throughout. We received a lovely note after the day with a USB and selection of prints. A really special touch. Can highly recommend Matt to capture anyone’s special day and add some light creativity for a really magical touch.

Matt took photos for us at our wedding in July 2022. He was absolutely great! In the run up to the day he had a big chat with us about... read more his approach and asked us what sort of thing we were after, and was always happy to answer questions on email too. On the day he was so brilliant - he really made me and the groom feel relaxed the whole time, and took loads of photos of our friends and family having a great time, as well as things like the formal photos, ceremony and speeches, which was exactly what we wanted. I normally feel really uncomfortable having my picture taken and hate how I look in them, but he made me feel really at ease and not awkward, even during the prep when I was having make up done. We really love the photos he took, they bring back so many great memories of the day. Can't recommend him highly enough! Thanks Matt.

We couldn't recommend Matt more highly, we had a small wedding and hate being photographed so we didn't give him the easiest task but he smashed it! He got... read more our vibe from the first phone call, nothing was too much trouble, he was great with our family and friends and we adore the photographs he took. He made our day and the lovely way the USB stick of photos he sent us was presented really topped off the feeling that he's a thoughtful guy, thank you so much Matt.
Lynsey Warren

Dominic Pecheur
Matt made our wedding day so special. He was so friendly and made everyone feel at ease, blended in and was like part of our family. We were delighted with... read more the photographs and the presentation box containing the USB memory stick. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Matt to give you precious memories of a special occasion.

Matt made our wedding day so special, he delivered the most candid, beautiful pictures that really captured all the fun had by all. He was so relaxed and just snuck... read more into the background. Everyone said they barely even noticed he was there. As a couple he eased us into our shots and was a lovely, approachable guy. Thanks so much Matt we are so glad we chose you. We are so happy with our photos.
Erin Henderson
Very happy with our engagement shoot photos! Matt was brilliant and made me and my partner feel at ease. I would recommend!
Stephanie Terry
Matt photographed our wedding and was a dream to work with. He was attentive to our requests, very enthusiastic, and a great communicator. On the day he really got to... read more grips with the venue, took time to frame the family and friends shots we asked for, and slipped unobtrusively around us and our guests for the day to get some really beautiful pictures (which he sent us a bunch of as lovely prints - an unexpected gift!). We were so happy with his photos; neither of us is that comfy in front of a camera but he made us feel so at ease. Not only is he a great photographer, he’s a lovely guy too. A pleasure to work with.
