ABOUT
IVANA KING
Hi, I’m Ivy! I’m married to my amazing husband, Matt, and mum to the wildest toddler, Adam. I’m also a wedding photographer based in Lancashire—more specifically, Leigh!
I’m a coffee and chocolate enthusiast and the kind of person who thrives on small meals and lots of snacks. Dancing is my jam—whether it’s salsa to Latin beats or belting out moves to a nostalgic 2000s playlist, I’m all in.
Shooting weddings? That’s my passion and, honestly, my dream job. I’m a romantic at heart, so being able to witness and document love in its purest, most beautiful form during weddings is a true gift. It's the type of photography that inspires me, that makes me want to create art.
I have tried really hard to fall in love with other types of photography - specially in early days after my son was born -, thinking that perhaps family and branding photography could be for it me (even had a commercial photography studio for a couple of years when I was living in the Midlands, called King House Photography). But in 2024, I decided to follow my heart and sold the studio to dedicate myself fully to weddings.
I’ve been married since 2018, and my background is a beautiful mix of Italian and Portuguese heritage, born in Brazil. I’ve also lived in Germany for many years, where I still have family, and I absolutely love traveling and experiencing different cultures.
I believe in faith, and I also believe in diversity and equality (that being on ethnicity, sexual orientation or gender identity).
If you’d like to know more about me, don’t hesitate to reach out—I’m an open book and would love to chat!
