Alison Taylor PhotographyBristol, Bath, Gloucestershire & Somerset Event Photographer

With over a decade of professional experience, I specialise in photographing events with a natural, documentary approach. From milestone birthdays and silver anniversaries to environmental initiatives and community projects, I capture the spirit of your event with natural, creative photography.

My unobtrusive style allows me to document the genuine flow of your event as it unfolds. For individuals, this means images that bring you straight back to the moment, even years later. For businesses and organisations, it means compelling, honest visuals that elevate your brand, enhance your marketing, and tell your story.

Whether you’re planning a small gathering, a major celebration, or an initiative that should be recorded and shared, I deliver beautifully crafted photography to reflect the heart of your event.

  • “From the first contact, Alison was wonderful. She did an amazing job on the night, and was completely unobtrusive. Her work is first class!”

    Authenticity is at the heart of great event photography. While posed shots have their place, the magic lies in capturing real moments – the laughter between friends, the quiet pride of a team, the genuine joy of a celebration.

    I also pay attention to the details and the wider context – the setting, the small touches, and the atmosphere that shape the experience. These elements come together to create a rich, visual story.

  • “Alison photographed our son’s first birthday party and I cannot speak highly enough about her photography talents, her professionalism, and her attentive service. Alison was able to capture the most beautiful candid shots of our baby, our family, and friends and we will treasure them forever. I would highly recommend Alison and cannot thank her enough!”

    Charity project event for engineering company – One Tree Per Child

    I had the pleasure of photographing a wonderful community initiative organised by SDS, an engineering consultancy with a strong focus on social value and sustainability. The event, held at Stoke Park Estate in Bristol, was part of Bristol City Council’s One Tree Per Child programme – an ambitious effort to increase the city’s tree canopy and support local biodiversity.

    SDS staff rolled up their sleeves and spent the day planting hundreds of young trees, forming two new hedgerows that will benefit wildlife and enhance green space for future generations. It was a hands-on volunteering day that brought people together for a shared cause — protecting the environment while contributing positively to the local community.

    Each sapling was carefully placed and protected with biodegradable sleeves, showing real care and long-term thinking. The project ties in beautifully with SDS’s Social Value Strategy, giving their team the opportunity to directly support local authority goals and make a visible difference to urban greening efforts.

    From a photography point of view, it was a joy to capture the energy and teamwork throughout the day—from muddy boots and high-vis vests to quiet moments of reflection as trees were planted. The event had a real sense of purpose, and I was proud to document it.

    If you’re planning a company charity event or volunteering day and would like to document the story behind it, I’d love to hear from you!
