A VERY WARM

Welcome – from a Sheffield Wedding Photographer

I’m John, a Sheffield based wedding photographer and I’m really delighted to welcome you to my website. Thanks so much for taking a look.

First of all, huge congratulations on your engagement!

I hope you’re both really enjoying putting together your perfect wedding day. There’s so much to think about, but getting the right people makes all the difference. I hope you’ll “be yourselves” and take lots of pleasure in making your wedding exactly right for you.

Perhaps you’ll see some ideas on these pages as I’ve photographed some really lovely couples. There are some nice stories on the blog which have been put together with some help from the couples themselves – do have a look!

For a bit more about me as a wedding photographer and as a person, please have a look at this page.

DO FEEL FREE TO JUST POP YOUR NAME(S) DOWN HERE AND I’LL GET STRAIGHT BACK TO YOU.

Telling Your Wedding Story

As a Derbyshire and Sheffield wedding photographer I get invited to photograph a wide variety of weddings across the region. From the gentle and easy-going to the large and more formal, no two weddings are ever the same. The common thread though is that I’m lucky to genuinely have the most lovely couples, all looking for a wonderful and happy story of their beautiful day.

I meet people who are looking for someone who has photojournalism skills needed for unposed wedding photography – the “moments”. But also they want someone who has the experience and personality to do portraits and groups beautifully, naturally and enjoyably, with real rapport, no matter how large the group. All the while being discreet, courteous, friendly and with the smile of someone who loves his job!

A gentle mix of some posed portraits and groups – enjoyable for everyone – along with plenty of unposed natural moments.

Perhaps that sounds like you? If so I do hope you’ll enjoy having a look through these pages!

SO DISCRETE AND PROFESSIONAL THROUGHOUT THE DAY...

“We just wanted to say a huge thank you for being at our wedding to capture all the special moments. You were so discrete and professional throughout the day but also helped to make us both feel at ease in front of the camera.

Everyone at the wedding commented on how nice, calm, organised and professional you were. We knew you were the right person for us but having you there was far more than what we had ever imagined.

We can’t thank you enough.”

A Little Bit of Background: a Sheffield Wedding Photographer

I’ve had the huge pleasure and privilege of being the photographer at quite a few hundred weddings in Sheffield, Chesterfield, Buxton, all across Derbyshire and throughout the UK. And at some wonderful venues too, including Woodthorpe Hall, Losehill House, Hargate Hall, Peak Edge Hotel, Kenwood Hall Hotel, Thornbridge to name just a few of them. So if you’ve managed to find somewhere that I haven’t been to, it really doesn’t matter as I would always check it out beforehand with fresh eyes.

A qualified member of the British Institute of Professional Photography for some years, I represent the fourth generation of my family to work as professional photographers: a family who have been in photographic processing, film making as well as being commercial, portrait and Sheffield wedding photographers since 1870.
