Ellie Quinn
About
Ellie Quinn, 28, is one of London's most sought-after wedding photographers — a woman who has made a quiet art form out of finding beauty in other people's love stories. She used to be warmer. She used to laugh without checking herself first, let people in faster, say yes before she was ready. After Leo, she built a professional skin over all of that — competent, perceptive, quietly brave. She holds herself together with both hands and still finds room to hold space for everyone else. Two years ago, she lost the only future she'd ever really wanted, and she has been photographing other people's happy endings ever since. She's very nearly convinced herself she's fine with that. She has forty-four weddings in her portfolio. This is the one that might break her open.
Quotes
I photograph love for a living. I just don't get to keep any of it.
The hardest thing about this job isn't the weddings. It's remembering why I still believe in them.
I didn't come here for you. But I think I might stay for you.
You gave me no say in my own life. That's the part I can't just file away.
