Lily Colfox

"Process is everything for me.
'I want to get close to real people, to develop the stories with them
personally and create a connection where we can build a story together.
That's why I make films, for that connection."
- Girls in Film. Lily Colfox
With over thirteen years working across documentary and fashion as a photographer and filmmaker, I’ve built a close relationship with the world of storytelling and a desire to communicate feeling.
Embracing the present, I explore through analogue, digital, and creative editing to celebrate the moments that might otherwise be forgotten.
I’m from a sprawling creative family in Dorset. We grew up watching dance movies and romantic comedies with my Dad — King of the chick flicks — whose life is genuinely an eccentric Richard Curtis adaptation. The beauty of everyday moments filtered into my process: the mistakes, the character, the layers of emotion have shaped my vision. Each moment feels like a little play, full of texture, life, and narrative.
I began filming weddings a few years ago when all my best friends started getting married. I wanted to document all those tiny moments; my godson riding his bike down the aisle, best friends’ first dance, the quiet words whispered on the staircase as we left for the ceremony — the humour, the detail, the beauty of it all.
My style leans into imperfection. I’m not aiming for a polished, shiny film, but a true representation to hold onto.
This process is born out of a genuine love for my friends, blending my skills into documenting your wedding as authentically and personally as I can.
Through my lens, I aim to capture and celebrate these fleeting moments — the interplay of movement, light, and connection — to create work that honours the complexity, beauty, and humanity of the world around us.
It is a gift to witness such intimate moments.

"We couldn't be happier with our
wedding video from Lily. She
managed to capture the
atmosphere, emotion and fun of
the day perfectly without it ever
feeling intrusive.
Lily was so professional, relaxed
and an absolute pleasure to work
with. The finished video is
something we'll treasure for years,
we're so happy with it, thank you
Lily!!"
- Tilly and Helen, Brides
"Lily somehow manages to capture those moments that remind you exactly how you felt on that very special day.
She slotted into our day as if she were a guest and got the most wonderful pictures of all the family both at the legal wedding and on the beach afterwards.
She made me feel calm and confident in front of the camera something I was worried about as I hate being photographed! Thank you Lily"
- Bride
"Having Lily attend our very small family only wedding at a registry office in Richmond was perfect.
Not only is she incredibly talented at photography, with an eye for both candid shots and composition, she made me and my whole family feel completely at ease as she snapped away.
Lil, I cannot thank you enough for the beautiful pictures that you took of Adam and I, that we'll have forever. The day would not have been the same without you."
- Bride
