Award winning wedding photographers in Manchester

I draw my inspiration & creativity from the cityscape and the personalities of the people I photograph in Manchester

The awesome city of Manchester has so much to offer and makes an incredible backdrop for your wedding photographs. If you are planning a Manchester wedding, high 5 to you for choosing one of the best cities in the world to say your I do's. We have been photographing Manchester weddings in our unique creative style since 2002 and have been lucky enough to have shot all over this great city. Our style is a mixture of storytelling photography mixed with creative portraits. I like to get super close to the action on your wedding day and effectively shoot the story from within, that way the images bring a real sense of being there again, as they have been shot from the perspective of someone who was in the middle of it. When it comes to creating bride and groom photographs in the city of Manchester this is where the real creativity kicks in! Coming from a landscape photography background I have a keen eye for awesome compositions, and there are no shortage of awesome compositions in Manchester.

I'll bring the shapes, lines and textures of Manchester through in the images and if you're worried about posing don't be, I keep this simple and focus on the fun element rather than the cringe worthy! Manchester has some of the very best wedding venues in the UK including Styal Lodge, The Midland, King Street Town House, Victoria House, Manchester Town Hall, Cheethams School of Music, Manchester Museum, The Hilton in Deansgate, Didsbury House, The Castlefield Rooms, Great John Street Hotel, Owen House Wedding Barn, and Gorton Monastery. There are also some awesome locations around Manchester that make perfect backdrops for unique creative portraits such as The Northern Quarter and Castlefields. If you are getting married in Manchester and are after a Manchester wedding photographer who thinks outside the box to create a set of truly unique photographs, we'd love to hear from you
