SMJH Photography is a gentle, story-led photography service based in the North East of England, founded by Amy Harding. Specialising in weddings, family sessions, and inclusive events, Amy creates a safe and intuitive space where every client feels seen, celebrated, and supported.
With a quiet presence and deep emotional insight, Amy adapts each session to suit sensory needs, family dynamics, and personal rhythms. Her work honours real connection over posed perfection, capturing moments that matter with care and authenticity.
Whether you're planning a wedding, documenting your family’s journey, or building a brand that reflects your values, SMJH Photography offers flexible, neurodiversity-aware coverage with optional extras like prints, albums, and seasonal magic. From first enquiry to final gallery, every step is handled with warmth, clarity, and respect.
SMJH Photography is more than a business — it’s a safe space for storytelling, advocacy, and joy.

Wedding Photography

Your wedding is more than a timeline — it’s a tapestry of emotion, tradition, and quiet magic. I work gently and intuitively to capture real moments as they unfold, adapting to your sensory needs and family dynamics with care. From pre-wedding prep to final gallery delivery, every step is handled with warmth, clarity, and respect. Full-day coverage, sneak peeks, and optional prints or albums available.
These sessions are designed to feel like home — calm, flexible, and child-led. Whether we’re documenting your newborn’s first days or capturing the joyful chaos of family life, I’ll follow your pace and adapt to your children’s emotional and sensory needs. Sessions can take place in your home or outdoors, with gentle guidance and plenty of space to just be yourselves.
