Guernsey Photographer Elliott Mariess

Photography has been a constant focus in my life….

Having parents who are both professional wedding photographers it was sort of unavoidable. Luckily It was something I became quickly obsessed with as soon as I got my first camera. I started out by lugging around equipment at weddings for my mum and I learned a lot from watching her take pictures.

My experience now ranges from my early days as a ‘wedding bag lugger’ to having training from top Vogue fashion photographer Nicholas Javed. I have also had the pleasure of working alongside top-level industry photographers like Rankin and Karl Taylor. I have 10 years of commercial retouching experience and I’m officially certified by Adobe (the people who make Photoshop!).
