Hi! I'm Louis Hardy - The photographer behind Louis Hardy Photo
Based in Sheffield, I'm a wedding photographer covering weddings across the UK.
I first picked up an interest in photography back in 2017 when I bought an iPhone 7 Plus. The portrait mode had me hooked! I spent many days (and nights!) researching the topic of photography and how to improve with compositional techniques, lighting and more. Things snowballed after this, leading me to buy my first DSLR, a Nikon D3400, complete with a 18-55mm kit lens.
Fast forward to 2024 (wow, time really has flown by!) and here we are, an avid Sony user with an addiction to camera equipment, vast knowledge and skills all surrounding wedding photography!
Ever since I decided to take my passion for photography freelance in 2020, I view the world through a creative lens. This outlook has led me to many adventures and experiences, such as photographing couples in some of the most picturesque venues, whilst also giving me the opportunity to collaborate with some truly talented content creators. I really feel that I've found my passion in life. I'm super grateful for the journey it has, and will continue, to take me on. I am constantly searching for new opportunities to explore further, enhance my craft and continue growing!
Want to know more about me as a person? Here's five quick fun facts about me!
• I have a yellow labrador named Mac - He is my absolute favourite thing in the world
• I LOVE to travel! I have visited over 15 different countries, with many more booked in!
• Autumn is my favourite season, those orange tones are magnificent
• I have an extremely varied music taste, I can vibe with 80's classic dad rock all the way through to country music and anything in between
• Guinness drinker, but I love a cider on a warm day!
Anyway, that's enough about me!
I now want to hear all about you, tell me about your wedding, what matters most to you, and everything in between! I can't wait to hear from you.
