documentary wedding photography
inspired by the look of film
hi I'm adrian.......that is me on the right !
in a photograph taken at the museum to my great photographer hero robert doisneau
I have been photographing weddings for more than thirty five years
I am a member of fearless photographers, a collective of the worlds best photographers, a 2024 bridebook silver award winner, eight times european gold award winner and am listed in last years masters of wedding photography top ten list of uk wedding photographers ......... well that is the uncomfortable bragging bit over.....now a bit about my style of photography
my style is mainly ' fly on the wall ' documentary with a little ' street photography vibe ' and I hope a sense of humour too. I like take natural images that document the moods and emotions of the day as they happen rather than with any forced staged photography
although the day is photographed in a documentary style most couples like have a few shots together. I don't like cringy poses or lots of faff so I try to keep these relaxed and over quickly which keeps the day moving along without the photography getting in the way too much
I photographed weddings on film for many years and although I now shoot digitally I like to edit the images to have a ' shot on film look ' with the contrast and grain of classic black + white films such as kodak tri-x and portra and gold for true to film colour images
I photograph most wedding days from brides preparations through to the early part of the dancing at the evening reception although half day bookings are also welcome
ready to print high resolution images are supplied on a boxed usb stick, there are usually around 350 + images in the final edit
albums and prints are available and an online gallery is included for your friends and family to view the wedding day photos
I hope that is helpful, if you would like any more info just let me know it would be lovely to hear from you

I can not even start to describe how happy I am with the wedding photos Adrian has taken - without a doubt all of my friends have said they are the best wedding photos they have ever seen.
Adrian was fantastic on the day - having your photos taken can sometimes be an arduous task, but Adrian made it so feel so quick and effortless. I really could not recommend him more highly!

It is really difficult to put into words how amazing Adrian is. He is so talented, and is such a nice guy.
His photos were amazing.
He captures these lovely moments and doesn't focus on the forced/staged group shots. I personally much prefer looking through the more natural photos of people really enjoying themselves, and he is incredible at capturing these shots.
We could not have asked for more & really couldn't recommend him enough. Look no further- if you want beautiful wedding photos you will treasure, Adrian is your guy!

Adrian has a laid back yet very professional approach which was very well received by our guests and much appreciated by us. Often a difficult balance to strike at weddings but he seems to have mastered it so well. Everyone commented on how discrete and easy going he was. The photos captured our day perfectly. He is friendly, helpful and approachable. I would recommend Adrian to anyone.
the worlds best photographers are.....
