Hi, I am Andy, a documentary-style wedding photographer based in Buckinghamshire. My passion is capturing the real moments of a couple's special day in a natural and candid way. I specialise in creating beautiful, relaxed wedding portraits that you will treasure the rest of your life.

I understand that every wedding is unique, which is why I take the time to understand each couple's vision and preferences. I will work closely with you to understand your preferences and tailor my approach to suit your needs. I have a keen eye for detail and a creative approach that results in beautiful and timeless images that will be treasured forever. I pride myself on my friendly and professional manner and strive to make the photography process enjoyable and stress-free for my clients.

In addition to wedding photography, I also offer engagement and bridal portrait sessions. These sessions are a great opportunity for couples to get to know me and feel comfortable in front of the camera before their big day. I will provide you with guidance and direction to make sure you look your best in the photographs. I am willing to travel for weddings and have the necessary insurance coverage to protect my clients and myself.

Capture our day perfectly

Andy was great to work with and we loved working with him. The whole process was really smooth and we are delighted with our photos. We wanted to capture the moments that made up the day, and he did not disappoint! Thank you Andy

Dave and Kerry Stephenson Wedding, Pendley Manor

Andy is an excellent photographer and on our special day he took so many wonderful photos whichwe will cherish for all of our lives. He arrived on time and having pre-planned all of the photos with us, was able to go to work immediately. He responded to our guests requests for photos we had not thought of and during the ceremony, pre-drink reception, reception and evening was unnoticeable as he went about his work. His photos are a mixture of formal and informal which work really well together. some of our favourites are those taken on the grand staircase at Pendley Manor Hotel.
Andy, you really helped to make our day so special and if we ever need a photographer again, you would be top of our list. I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
Thank you so much.
Dave and Kerry Stephenson.

Couldn't have asked for any better!

Andy is a totally amazing wedding photographer. From the organisation and pre wedding shots to delivering us the final product and making our photo album he has been professional yet friendly. His eye for detail is amazing and the shots he took capture our wedding day perfectly. Neither myself nor my husband are particularly fond of having our photo taken but Andy's confidence and manner made us feel at ease and relaxed, and the pictures reflect this. He had thought through every aspect of our day before hand and managed to capture it all without us even noticing! The pictures are up all around our house and I still look at them daily, 4 months on. Thank you Andy!

Perfect choice

You can never replicate the day, so capturing as many beautiful moments is so important to a bride. And Andy did more than that, he made everyone feel comfortable and wasn't invasive. The photos came out AMAZING and I had hundreds of favourites to choose from. Definately recommend Andy as a photographer for any special occasion.

100% would recommend

Andy was absolutely fantastic and we would without a doubt recommend him to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. He was so friendly and made us and all of our wedding party feel comfortable, which allowed him to capture some amazing candid photos that caught the essence of the day perfectly. He knew our wedding venue - Shendish Manor - really well so was able to recommend the best locations around the grounds that we wouldn’t have thought of without him. One of the things we are most grateful for is that Andy went above and beyond to create unique pictures for us that we will cherish forever. We can’t thank Andy enough for making the most special day of our lives complete.

Commination, Pictures and Experience - Just perfect!

A massive thank you to Andy - you were amazing across all our events. You worked tirelessly and took so many beautiful photos. Both my partner and I are not so comfortable in front of camera but you made it enjoyable and put us at ease. Thank you again!

In advance of our events, you explained everything clearly and in detail to make sure we knew everything that was going on.

Thank you again and highly recommend

The best of the best

We used Andy and Jean as our wedding photographers and we couldn’t have found anyone better! Andy was really helpful with the process leading up to the wedding. They were both amazing on the wedding day taking us away for moments on our own and getting great shots of guests too. Every part of our day was captured perfectly and looking back through the photos really is like reliving the moment. I really couldn’t recommend anyone more! Thank you so much!

Fantastic and 100% recommended

I would 100% recommend Andy, he was absolutely fantastic not only on our wedding day with our amazing photos, but also in the run up. We had to reschedule our wedding several times due to Covid19 and he was so understanding and supportive which was invaluable. I am really happy with our photos and he managed to capture some perfect moments as well as some really artistic photos. Definitely go with him as your wedding photographer!

Perfect photographer for our special day

We needed a photographer on extremely short term notice. We found Andy online and he was so professional, yet personal, from the start. We couldn’t meet face to face because of COVID but he organised a Zoom call and made sure that he knew exactly what we were looking for, which made us feel much more relaxed! The service was amazing on such short notice! On the day he was a pleasure to work with and have at the wedding. He was friendly and approachable and knew how to get the best shots of all the special moments you want in a wedding! All in all a excellent photographer and lovely guy, plus the photos came out perfectly! Would highly recommend!

Phenomenal wedding photos

Andy was absolutely fantastic as our wedding photographer, was so great to work with him on a personal level, and his photos genuinely were phenomenal!! He blew us away with the creative and artistic photos he took, as well as the authentic moments he was able to capture so seamlessly.
We used Andy twice both for our smaller wedding due to covid but again for the large reception we held at Aldwickbury Park and he was brilliant both times! Even afterwards when creating the album with me, he was so patient with photo touch ups and the album design.

Honestly do not hesitate and book Andy for your wedding, you will definitely not regret it!!
Best value you can get as the photos will last forever and are so magically done by him.

A fantastic photographer

We hired Andy to do our wedding photography and he was fab from the word ‘go’. He was highly organised and nothing was too much trouble. He ensured that we got all the shots that we wanted plus so many extras. He knew exactly how to capture the moment without anyone really realising he was there - we’ve got so many natural shots and have had so many compliments on the quality and quantity of photos that we got.

We would highly recommend Andy! A great photographer to work with!

A truly amazing photographer

Andy is a brilliant photographer and we couldn’t have wished for a better person to shoot our wedding. He was excellent.

We met Andy at a wedding show and from the minute we spoke to him he made us feel at ease and happy to spend time with us discussing what there was on offer. Andy stood out from the rest with his candid photos that showed people in their natural environment and not all staged. We loved his work and booked him.

After we had booked Andy, he was professional and replied to questions quickly. He made us understand the packages fully before we made our decision and wasn’t pushy to make us spend more money. He worked with our budget and we couldn’t have asked for more.

We both thought that the pre wedding shoot we had arranged was going to be awkward, but little did we know, Andy had scoped out the place we were going and so he could spend time with us as a couple to get to know us instead of working out where to have our pictures taken. We laughed so much our nerves had disappeared and the pictures were flawless.

On our wedding day, he captured the traditional shots of both Bride and Groom getting ready but also some amazing natural shots of everyone involved in the big day. Throughout the entire day he was faultless and captured some truly amazing photos of the ceremony as well as the fun had on the dance floor. He captured moments of our day that we will treasure forever and went beyond all of our expectations. There were so many comments from family and friends about how comfortable he made everyone feel.

We had some rain on our wedding day yet one of our favourite pictures of the day is my wife, her father and bridesmaids walking towards the venue all holding umberellas. Andy managed to capture the fun and laughter of this moment as well as the true beauty of my wife. Andy worked with the wedding coordinator to make sure that everything we had asked for and more was possible on our special day.

We received our wedding album just before Christmas, hand delivered by Andy which was a really nice touch and it was better that expected. Everything about the album was amazing. The presentation box, the USB and protective box was all matching showing how much attention to detail Andy goes into.

We cannot recommend Andy highly enough and can not thank him enough for bringing our memories to life.

Professional, kind and calm, just what we all need on our big day

Andy did a fantastic job as our wedding photographer. He was very professional and also very calm and kind which was great as I was very excited but also a bit nervous. He was very punctual too. He knew which would be the best spots for the photos, the perfect lights and had great eyes for the details. This is the reason why I don't have one favourite photo of our wedding but about 50! I love looking at our wedding photos again and again. I would very much recommend him as your photographer for your big day!

Could not have wished for better photographers

We cant thank Andy and his second photographer enough for our precious photos that captured every moment. Andy especially has been amazing and patient with all our requests in making our album perfect. I have received so many comments from friends that they would chose Andy for their weddings as our photos are so beautiful and natural. Andy had some challenges with getting all our shots captured in a limited time but he did it with complete chilledness and style.

Our pre-shoot was hilarious and fun and for our wedding day Andy and his team were almost invisible but captured the most precious moments.

The photos tell a story and bring back every feeling from our wedding day and we look at them with laughter and tears. Andy is truly talented and captured everything and we will treasure these forever.

We could not have wished for better photographers. Thank you so much!

Highly recommended!

Andy was a delight to work with from the day we enquired about our wedding. He was happy to answer any questions we had and helped us get the best out of our wedding photography. The pictures are amazing considering the majority were not posed and captured the atmosphere of the day perfectly. Choosing a wedding photographer is difficult but I cannot recommend Andy enough.
