Documentary Wedding Photographer – Manchester / North-West / UK
Hi I’m Chris, a national award winning Manchester wedding photographer and film maker. I’m based in the Manchester area, as well as the surrounding North-West region. I am also often asked to photograph in some of the best venues around the UK.
A Unique Perspective
Alongside my photography work, I have spent the past 12 years also working in the highly demanding Film and TV industry, working with Oscar and Emmy awarding winning directors. Take a look at my IMDb Profile
I’m excited to bring all this expertise to your big day, and use my unique experience to create truly stunning wedding photography that tells your individual story.
Documentary Style Photography
Most of what I do is capture the moment, relaxed, un-posed photography. And I love it! I’m a documentary wedding photographer, catching the fleeting moments few other people see. The glimpses of emotion frozen in that single private moment.
These are the pictures, above all others, that you’ll treasure for the rest of your life, and look at when you’re older and say, “That was us.“
For your wedding I want to document all the emotions of you and your guests; from the love and joy filled tears, to the fun and the laughter, to the cheeky smiles of the kids as they think they’re not being watched. My job is to photograph all this and more, in the most natural and unobtrusive way possible.
I often get asked to photograph weddings of brides and grooms with children. I think this is because my work often includes great photos of kids having fun and being themselves. I can never predict what they’ll do next, but I love photographing these crazy, beautiful little people at weddings, and I think this comes through in my photography.
Here is a short video of me at work.
“Chris was an absolute star! From the minute we met I knew he got us, and that he would be able to deliver what we wanted. What we didn’t realise was just how amazing the final result would be. He captured our day perfectly, every minute detail that made our day ours is there. He documented all the bits that we didn’t see, and to see how much fun our guests had fills me with smiles. Thank you Chris for helping make it a perfect day, and capturing it forever. X”
PORTRAITS
The couples who choose me to photograph their wedding want mostly relaxed, documentary photographs, but with a select few of these portraits and family group shots.
These portrait shots are completely optional, but I know how important it is to give you and your guests the time and attention you need so we can create great portraits for you, and your closest friends and family.
Featured Wedding
“The most amazing guy, so passionate about what he does, Chris never stopped working tirelessly and discretely in the background throughout the entire day. Words cannot describe what you have given us! You have been absolutely amazing and captured all our day’s memories perfectly. Thank you so much!” Louise & Andrew
