Belinda Buxton FSICIP
I’m married with two children, although not children anymore! I also have a three-legged cat called Freddie and a long-serving volunteer on the SOS Bus in Norwich. Photography has been a passion of mine from a young age. Having owned a camera for most of my life, (starting with my Dad’s little Kodak with a flash cube), I thrive on taking images with emotion, meaning and, sometimes, quirky elements! I thoroughly enjoy meeting and greeting all my clients whether it be a wedding, portrait or lifestyle shoot, model, pet portrait or commercial venture, and being a professional photographer, you know you’re in safe hands.
Having been awarded numerous photographic competition acceptances and awards both here in the UK and internationally over the past years, I am regularly updating my skills and learning new ones and keeping abreast of the latest news and trends in photography. I have also gained my Fellowship from the SWPP (Society of Wedding and Portrait Photographers), the highest qualification available, and gained several awards with them including the International Events Photographer of the Year. In 2021 I was made an Ambassador for The Societies and in 2022 was awarded a Special Recognition Award for my contributions to the industry and volunteering activities. I completed my initial training to be an International Print Judge in 2022 and I’m continuing this journey to become a fully Qualified Judge in 2026.
As a wedding and portrait photographer, I am recognised throughout the industry as an award-winning professional with the ability to make each and every client feel comfortable and confident in front of the camera. I was also a regional finalist in The Wedding Industry Awards for 2020. I have also won Professional Portrait Photographer of the Year 2020 with Professional Photo Magazine.
Commercial photography and business portraiture are also available for your business needs. Your brand is important and stunning images of your products or services are a must, along with you and your team.
My calm, friendly approach will relax the most camera-shy bride, toddler or family. Patient and understanding, I will not be fazed by your shy child. I also have over 29 years experience as a first-aider, so you will always be in safe hands.
My welcoming and purpose-built studio 4 miles South of Norwich, Norfolk is warm and cosy and I am very proud of my little haven as it makes my overall service even more fulfulling and enjoyable for my clients. I’m sure you will find the value and customer service you are looking for here and look forward to hearing from you about your photography needs.
