Emotive, natural Leeds wedding photography

What experience do I have and what do I offer?

I have photographed weddings now for longer that the youngest brides. A real understanding means I was happy to photograph my first wedding with film cameras. Although I still love the look of film photography, digital does have advantages to meet today’s expectations. I love this work that never feels like work. The social aspects of my profession are always enjoyable.

I offer a Natural Style of Wedding Photography across Leeds and Yorkshire, unedited images remain timeless. Having learnt photography and composition using film cameras, now with digital I never need to edit or crop. Composition is so important – I don’t believe you can fix mistakes in editing.

The show must go on, whatever the weather I am there to capture each moment. I love rainy day weddings as much as sunny days. The rain can bring such fun too, umbrellas, wellies, mud, I’ve seen and photographed it all. I shall create a Blog Post soon showing some of the extremes of wedding weather I have experienced and enjoyed.

Unedited, Timeless photography. At the moment there seems to be a trend for low contrast, whilst years ago the opposite was true in high contrast black and white. I prefer the natural look. Every wedding I capture is stunning, so why would photos need editing?

Beautiful moment captured during the wedding breakfast. I don”t disappear just waiting for the speeches to start, I am there – apart from when everyone is eating the main courses – otherwise I capture the fun and interaction that makes for great photos. The whole story is what I love to capture.

As a Leeds wedding photographer, do I travel further afield?

I’m more than happy to travel where asked, a big part of my love of this profession is that I have seen places and people I’d otherwise not have seen or met I guess. A wedding on the windy shores in Brighton is so memorable, or one of the first weddings I photographed back in 2004 was a Medieval Themed Wedding. Also included were fire breathers, fun costumes, and you would hear ‘Bring on the wenches!’ obviously to serve the food – makes me laugh even now! To extremes, another hugely memorable occasion was for a four person celebration up in Scotland. Finally, would you believe, Glengoyne Distillery for whisky tasting. In addition, we stopped en route to take some couple photos in the snow, alongside the beautiful hills, water, and landscapes that are everywhere there.

There are so many moments to capture during this first part of the day you can choose to have me there to calmly and professionally capture. I’ll always use available light, no flash photography. As I trust you can see, I do feel so welcome by everyone, and this makes my professional venture so enjoyable and in no way like work at all! The final photo in this sequence below, the bride posed in shadow and light before the ceremony. As perfect as the bride will be before the main events start…

Understanding available light by a Leeds wedding photographer, evidently with extensive experience, and a true love of photography. Above all I want my couples to have images that are unique to them and full of personality. In conclusion the elegance of the venue is outshone by the elegance of the bride.

I love to capture light and shadow, colour and emotion in my Leeds wedding photography. Composition comes naturally to be considered a professional in this field. Trends don’t matter to me whatsoever, photography can remain pure even with so much emphasis on ‘professionally edited’ My emphasis however is only on professionally taken with naturally great composition!

Couple photos are my speciality, as I always aim to capture personality naturally. Posed but with individuality reflecting who they are.

I have a calm approach to my photography, so everyone feels comfortable with me around. Consequently, I don’t change the moments like this that tell the story.

Nikki and Mike’s wedding photography request was no posing or group photos etc. The photo above captures the proud faces of the Groom’s sons as they walk Nikki in. Below, Nikki and Mike stood by the piano just outside the door to the wedding breakfast, waiting to be called in. I didn’t interrupt at all.

Sometimes it’s hard to talk about a photo, because the image itself is worth a 1000 words. I love to capture the Detail and Colour at each wedding.

Reds would. you believe are one of the most difficult colours for cameras. But using the right lenses, accurate colour is captured. The shades of red in the harsh light are bold and varied and loved by the couple. Sunshine and snow in February captured by Leeds West Yorkshire wedding photographer.
