It’s so lovely to meet you! Here you’ll find a little bit more about me, why I LOVE weddings, and how Liberty Pearl grew from a one-woman dream into the incredible team we are today.
I’m a wife, a mum, a traveller, and a nature lover. I first set up Liberty Pearl Photography in 2013, when my daughter Liberty was just four years old. I wanted a business that gave me the freedom to spend time with her and enjoy adventures during the school holidays. Fast forward over a decade, and not only has the business grown into a full collective of photographers, filmmakers, and content creators, but Liberty herself is part of the team as a content creator, which makes this truly a family business.
Our team has been working together for years, developing a seamless, natural style that our couples love. We’re like family, warm, supportive, and always ready for the next adventure. We’ve recently welcomed a male photographer into our collective too, making our team more diverse and even stronger.
Before weddings, I studied Conservation Biology at university in Bristol, dreaming of travelling the world photographing endangered species. Life had other plans, and after several years working as a music photographer, I stepped into the world of weddings, one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Since then, myself and the team have photographed and filmed over 500 weddings across Devon, Cornwall, the South West, the UK, and Europe, and we have loved every single one.
Our approach is relaxed, natural, and elegant. We know many couples feel camera-shy, so we make it our mission to help you feel completely at ease. On your wedding day, we’re organised yet calm, blending into the background so you can enjoy every moment while we capture it all — the big emotions, the fun group photos, the breathtaking couple shots, and the little moments you may not even notice at the time.
When your sneak peek gallery arrives just 7 days later, you’ll relive your day all over again — and we can promise you’ll be blown away. These are memories you’ll treasure forever, captured by a team who put their heart into every wedding story.

Here's a snapshot into our world.
A Little Behind The Scenes Of Our Life
We have travelled across the globe, starting with a month long trip to America to visit my father in law, I fell in love with New York! We then took our honeymoon in South Africa and stayed in Cape town which was BEAUTIFUL!
We have since enjoyed trips to Italy - Tuscany & Amalfi Coast, France, and Ibiza. Where next?
Definitely Spain, it's where my husband grew up and I can't wait for him to show us around!
Es Vedra, Ibiza
Traveling WITH MY HUSBAND
One of the main reasons I became a wedding photographer is because I LOVE marriage. I was a single mum at the time, and it made me so happy to see couples, so in love on their wedding day. It inspired me to set my goal of finding myself a husband, and I did (I will save that story for another day)!
I love hearing the stories of how couples met during the speeches, and I love an engagement story however perfect or eventful it may be!
This is my favourite bible verse about marriage
"I have found the one whom my soul loves”
Song of Solomon 3:4

Marriage

You will find us outdoors whatever the weather! Wild swimming & kayaking at our local beach.
Camping in Cornwall for weeks over the summer months, enjoying the local beaches , and eating Cornish Clotted cream ice-creams ! In winter we are walking on Dartmoor or visiting the local south west coastal paths.
My children love jumping in muddy puddles and going on 'adventures', wild camping on Dartmoor, pony rides, and learning to surf!

My Blended family
I love wedding cakes they are just so pretty and super tasty! Favourite flavour has to be lemon and elderflower! Best invention ever!
I love popping down to our local bakery to find out what pastries they have baked fresh that morning (and whether they have anything left)! My favourites are the giant cinnamon croissants! YUM!
I also love going to my favourite cafe for a latte and slice of cake to catch up with friends, I love cake!

Cake
I have been a Christian for the past 9 years, it coincided with starting my wedding photography business, (I'll leave that story for another day)!
My faith is very important to me, so of course I LOVE a church wedding! They are so much fun. I love praying for my couples and blessing their marriages.
I capture weddings from all faiths, religions, beliefs and traditions, and have photographed Catholic, Hindu, Muslim, Chinese, African, Asian weddings, and hand fasting ceremonies and Celtic blessings and I loved them all!

My Favourite Things
Due to high demand and never wanting to disappoint any of our lovely couples, Liberty Pearl has evolved into a Collective of photographers and filmmakers, all united by a desire to deliver our award-winning service with professionalism and in our unified elegant and rustic style.
Love stories are our forte. Nature inspires all that we do. We breathe in the sea mist while capturing couples at our favourite Southwest coastal venues. Our hands brush against the green grass of a country estate as we find the right position to film you walking down the aisle in your outdoor ceremony.
We love what we do. We LOVE weddings that don’t follow traditions. Our images reflect each couple and their personalities, however joyful, stylish, or calm they may be! No two weddings are the same, and we treat each one as a blank canvas. We develop a personal relationship with every couple because understanding your unique personalities allows us to use our organised, unobtrusive approach to put you at ease, capture your incredible wedding day, and create beautiful memories that are priceless and cherished.
We are very organised, and from our head office in Devon we personally handle all inquiries and bookings for couples planning weddings across Devon and Cornwall. We love talking through wedding details and hearing your engagement stories — especially the funny ones that didn’t go to plan! We only wish we could capture every wedding we book, as they are all so beautiful and stylish in so many ways.
We have been named as one of the Top 50 UK Wedding Photographers in 2019, 2020, and 2021, which is a fantastic achievement because it’s such a competitive industry. There are so many amazing wedding photographers right here in Devon & Cornwall alone, so thank you for taking the time to look around the Liberty Pearl website.
Enjoy!

"We had such a lovely experience with Amber for my surprise proposal on Boxing Day, it was such a magical experience getting engaged but also having all the photos in the moment to look back to. I keep looking back and tearing up, the photos are absolutely beautiful and we will cherish the moments forever.
Amber is so friendly and made us both feel so at ease in front of the camera while having photos afterwards and doing an engagement style photoshoot for us where it all happened which made it all the more special, she even got some beautiful shots of our dog with us in his neckerchiefs!
It was so lovely for her too take time out of her festive period to help my partner to make our very special Christmas memories.
I would recommend Liberty Pearl photo and film to anyone who is looking for a friendly, warm and welcoming photographer and the photos taken are absolutely gorgeous and so natural.
Thank you so so much!💗💗💗💗💗

"We are SO pleased that we had Liberty Pearl Photography as our wedding photographer. Amber was so lovely and helpful throughout the planning process and on the day.
She put everyone at ease in front of the camera, while also organising group shots quickly and effectively – which meant we could also enjoy our canapés!
The photographs are beautiful, from the detail shots of the table set up to our couples photos, we will treasure them forever and looking through the album takes us straight back to the best day of our lives.
Thank you Amber x"

"Amber is an incredible photographer, I am so glad she was able to capture our lockdown wedding. She is patient, creative and she is so calm that you feel at ease - especially if you are camera shy!
Due to COVID-19, we changed our wedding date THREE times, but Amber has been so accommodating and supportive throughout the whole journey, adjusting her schedule to help us.
We will treasure these images forever, she did such a stunning job and we are still in awe of them.
We really appreciate you Amber! ❤️"

"Amber was the most wonderful photographer and took all of the shots that were important for us for when we look back at our wedding day. She made us feel at ease, especially when taking the couples shots when we didn't really know what to do! She also coordinated our group photos really well and absolutely nailed the balance of fun without being cheesy. We are so in love with our photos - thanks so much!"

"I can not recommend Liberty Pearl Photo & Film Collective - Amber Leach and her service highly enough! Her talent and care is so apparent in her work! We will forever treasure these photos and Amber will be always our first choice of photographer for all the special moments to come!!!"

"Amber is absolutely brilliant and I would recommend her in a heartbeat! We wanted a relaxed wedding photographer who would capture natural shots and people's emotions on the day. The photos we got were better than anything we could have imagined!
Amber helped advise on timings, organising group shots seamlessly - she captured the day perfectly and was so unobtrusive. We're absolutely delighted with the photos, especially given the extremely windy conditions Amber had to work in for the outdoor shots!
Thank you so much for creating fantastic memories of our special day ❤"

"Absolutely over the moon, Amber is an absolute artist. She was amazing on the day, super friendly and lovely. We had our ‘sneak peek’ photos today (it is rare to get photos back this soon, you won’t get this from many photographers!) and we are blown away by the beauty of her work. We are so excited to get the rest now because they are so stunning. Thank you thank you thank you!!"
