The best photographers are not only handy with a camera, but also adept at putting people at ease. Fun, caring and easy going, Josie Tate of Love Tate Photography makes her clients feel instantly relaxed and comfortable – even those who dread their moment in front of a camera.

We can wholeheartedly vouch for her talent as a photographer because she was the lovely lady behind our incredible Muddy Stilettos Awards Party 2023 and 2024 pictures – we found her a breeze to work with and nothing is too much trouble.

Photography was initially a hobby for Josie, but she turned her passion into a business after receiving great feedback, and from looking at her portfolio, it’s clear to see why the compliments keep coming! To Josie, photo shoots are about capturing personality, heart and soul, along with that in-the-moment magic that makes a photograph one to treasure.

Approachable and flexible, Josie loves all aspects of photography so can cater to most needs – and will even work with animals and children! The photos above of the family of four are from a recent on-location shoot in the Costessey woodland (they won the shoot as a prize here on Muddy) and we’re still blown away by Josie’s ability to capture such joy and connection in a single snap. Whatever the occasion, you won’t be disappointed. Drop Josie a line to chat about any wedding, event or project.

And, with a diploma in life coaching, Josie also offers mindful photography sessions on a one-to-one basis or small group. During these special Refocus sessions, Josie teaches photography basics and encourages people to stop and see the beauty in front of them.

So, relax and smile –  you’re in safe hands.
