A LITTLE
ABOUT US
HEY THERE,
It’s great to meet you!
Who We Are
We’re Kat + Ash, The Springles. We’re husband and wife, best friends, artists, collaborators and parents to 3 amazing home schooled children; twin girls Zion + Vega (7) and Atlas, our 6 month old beautiful boy.
We met working an office job and instantly became best friends. It took us years before we realised we were soul mates, but that bedrock of friendship has served us extremely well after 8 years of marriage and 3 kids.
We spend our time constantly going after the best possible version of life, even when that’s not the easiest option. We truly believe that nothing worth having comes easy.
We’re lucky to now call the south coast of Cornwall home, after relocating here at the end of 2019.
On days off, we can normally be found on beach walks with our kids, home schooling in a very “un-schooled” way, spending time with friends or in a sauna (preferably both at the same time).
In the winter when we’re not shooting weddings, we now focus on our Covid pivot Abel Burners. This small business saved us during a 1.5 year long period when weddings were forbidden.
We love to travel, experience new cultures and are obsessed with a great Oat Flat White. If we book a destination wedding you can almost guarantee that we’ll turn it into a family travelling experience. We believe music is best played on vinyl and are in love with Wes Anderson films.
We both have a passion for cooking and our creative flair runs through all hobbies, not just photography.
Our Approach
We’ve had the pleasure of capturing weddings around the world since 2015. In a normal year, we’ll shoot around 10 weddings abroad with a further 25 weddings at home. We feel extremely grateful that our couples have taken us to some incredible places like Antigua, New Zealand, Zakynthos, Santorini, Tuscany, Puglia, Tivoli, Pisa, The Dolomites, Paris, Loire Valley, Samoens, Ireland, Scotland and much more to photograph their weddings.
We love intimacy and warmth in our photos and believe that wedding photography is an art form. The person you choose for your wedding photography is responsible for trapping the moments of your day in amber, for generations to come to look through. The way in which your photographer captures your day, is the way which you will remember your day.
We’re always trying to find the real connections, honest story and small details that make up the bigger picture. From the moment we arrive, we try to weave ourselves into your day seamlessly. Whilst blending in to the background, we let your day naturally unfold and find the best view points for those memories to be frozen.
We’re not loud and we’re not intrusive. If you’re looking for someone extremely energetic to ‘take charge’ of your day, we probably aren’t right for you. We’re aiming to become like one of your best friends who brought their camera along, infusing what we see with a creative touch. We’ll give a bit of light direction as it’s needed, but prefer to create moments for your energy to come through and space for you to interact as a couple, then capture the real moment. Your wedding photographs should be a collection of moments, not a collection of poses.
