Lake District Wedding Photographer
Wedding and Elopement Photography Cumbria
Hi, I’m Jaye
I’m a Lake District Wedding and Elopement Photographer with a natural and colourful aesthetic, for photos that are full of life and have a creative flair for authentic and timeless photography of your wedding day.
That’s right I use cameras, I do weddings, and I have a name. Sometimes the name changes to “photographer lady” or “the photographer”, but generally speaking calling out “Jaye” will get my attention
I’m a Lake District Wedding Photographer and Elopement Photographer, based in Cumbria. I’m from the beautiful Georgian town of Cockermouth, which borders the Lake District National Park, and is a gateway to it’s north western fells, the northern lakes and the Lorton Valley. As Jaye-Peg Photography I offer a wedding and elopement photography service throughout the Lake District, and also as a destination wedding photographer throughout the UK.
I am professionally qualified as a Wedding Photographer through The Guild Of Photographers, with whom I have also won a number of wedding photography awards. I am always challenging myself to take that one perfect photo. Professional memberships and awards are a way to work towards technical and artistic perfection. So if you want your wedding photos to be perfect, then I’ve got you, and in your photos you’ll see everything that made your wedding a brilliant day.
Every photograph is unique and captures a split second of time never to be repeated.
My Wedding Photography is relaxed and informal
As well as capturing all of the emotions and special moments from your wedding I also want to be a part of the fun.
It’s always great when my couples think of me like I’m a long lost friend, and a calming presence when it all feels a bit hectic. I’ll take control for you during any formalities, such as group photographs, and create something special for you during your couple photos. I’ll also use the way that behaviour changes in front of a camera to get some great candids of your wedding guests too.
I’m all for diversity too so it’s a big fat yes from me for same sex and LGBTQ weddings. Equal marriage rocks. As does the coming together of families from all over the world, bringing all of their wonderful traditions with them. Maybe you’re both big nerds and are going all in for a Lord Of The Rings or Star Wars themed wedding, so bring it on. Maybe you just want something laid back and low key. I’m all for that too. No two weddings are ever the same, and it’s all those unique little touches that make me want to be a part of your day.
Whether I am there to photograph your elopement or you have booked me as your Lake District Wedding Photographer for the whole day. I will photograph your wedding as it really happens with all of the fun, happiness and magic that it entails.
Kind Words
would 100% recommend to anyone.
We had our Lake District wedding in August 2025 and Jaye was so friendly from the get go. She really puts you at ease and the photos never felt forced. Jaye brings a really fun and relaxed energy which makes you feel like you’ve known her for years. We had so many comments from the guests saying how great Jaye was and how amazing the photos were afterwards. The photos are lovely covering a mixture of formal groups photos and more candid photos of guests enjoying the day. We’re so pleased the wedding venue recommended Jaye and we would 100% recommend to anyone.

I highly recommend Jaye if you are getting married in the Lakes.
We found Jaye whilst looking for a local photographer for our Lake District wedding, and Jaye’s style was exactly what we were looking for. Great candid shots of us and our guests having fun. Jaye was brilliant from the first contact and this continued on the day where she put us and our guests at ease, and got some amazing photos. She knew the location and recommended some great shots, despite the weather, and we are so pleased with the final result. I highly recommend Jaye if you are getting married in the Lakes.

“Her work is brilliant and to a high standard”
Jaye was absolutely brilliant with us from start to finish!!! Meeting Jaye a couple of times before our wedding along with her funny and quirky sense of humour made us both feel really at ease, which was lovely when it came to our big day!
Jaye was amazing at capturing beautiful pictures and memories, our wedding album is so beautiful!!! Her work is brilliant and to a high standard!!!
We couldn’t be happier, thank you Jaye!!! 😀 -
“Would highly recommend Jaye!!!”
We had Jaye as our wedding photographer and she was just great! Was always quick to respond to emails both before and after the wedding! Jaye was amazing on the day and was so discreet we hardly knew she was there. Jaye captured our day perfectly and although the weather wasn’t the best we managed to get some amazing photos and Jaye knew exactly what would work! Our family and friends have been so impressed with the photos too and we can’t wait to see our album. Would highly recommend Jaye!!!

“I cannot recommend Jaye highly enough!”
Wow! Booking Jaye for our intimate wedding in the Lakes last week was one of the best decisions I have ever made (as well as marrying my husband lol). Her work is magical! From the first point of contact right up until the actual wedding day Jaye was friendly, easy to talk to, and made us feel so comfortable! I cannot recommend Jaye highly enough. I felt like I was in a fairytale all day and now we have most gorgeous photos to back that up and share with people. Thank you Jaye so so much!

“Jaye went so far above and beyond”
Jaye went so far above and beyond what we could have hoped from a photographer. She really took the time to listen to what we wanted for our photos, and was so supportive and helpful throughout the day. The photos are absolutely brilliant, we couldn’t recommend her more strongly!
From my home town of Cockermouth
I regularly travel throughout the Lake District and Cumbria to photograph weddings. I am also have easy access to Lancashire and the North West, Dumfries and the Scottish Borders, and the North Pennines and Yorkshire Dales. It really is a pleasure to be invited to weddings as a Professional Photographer.
In the Lake District and Cumbria we have so many gorgeous locations in one of the most beautiful parts of the country with many amazing wedding venues from Keswick to Grasmere, Windermere and beyond. Cumbria is also one of the go to places for destination weddings in the UK. So where better to find your destination wedding photographer than someone who grew up in and also lives in the Lake District.
