STAFFORDSHIRE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER
Hey, I’m Andy a award winning local Staffordshire wedding photographer. You may have read more about me and my photography journey on my about page (if not head over now and get to know me more) but in short I am an award winning wedding and landscapes photographer who lives in Staffordshire.
My approach to wedding photography is to combine candid documentary with creative artistic photography which are curated using fun prompts and valuable training. Throughout the day I aim to be the hidden guest in the background documenting the day and captuing the moments that you may have missed, capturing the moments and preserving the memories.
Award Winning Wedding Photography
Personally, I am a believer in reputatable trades being associated with their industry bodies or recognised organisations which builds trust about thier trade and skills. I am delighted to be a member of Flash Masters photography community which is an industry recognised awards and education company. I am also a member of The Photographers Guild who are another industry trusted partner which offers an awards programme to recognise talented photography at a national award winning level.
I have won awards from The Photographers Guild for my photography, I have won several Wedisson Awards for Wedding Photography and I have also won awards for wedding photography in Boundless Pictures monthly competitions.
I was winner of Hitched Wedding Awards 2024 in the Wedding Photographer category, recognising as one of the most recommended professionals by newlywed couples on Hitched.co.uk. I was nominated by a past couple for award winning wedding photographer in The Wedding Industry Awards 2025 and this saw me be a Regional Finalist as West Midlands Regional Finalist in the Wedding Photography category of The Wedding Industry Awards 2025.
