North West wedding photographer Days with feeling. Photos with life.

As your North West wedding photographer, I’ll capture colourful, natural celebrations you will want to relive.

Let’s talk about your day ↗

A little time together

Your people · Your place · Your day.

Meet your North West wedding photographer.
Here for all of it.

I’m Andy Wilkinson. I photograph weddings across Cheshire, Liverpool and Merseyside, Greater Manchester and the wider North West of England.

My photographs bring together the big moments and the little ones: the nerves before the ceremony, a squeeze of the hand, the laughter at speeches and the dance floor when everybody lets go. You can enjoy the day while I look for the moments that make it yours.

We’ll also make time for relaxed portraits and the family photographs that matter to you. If you feel awkward in front of a camera, I’ll give you a little direction and keep things easy.

One region. So many kinds of celebration.

From city streets
to country lanes.

These photographs come from real weddings across the North West. Every place has its own light and atmosphere, and every couple brings their own energy.

Bolton School

A joyful wedding-party portrait with the building behind them. I’ll find space for the group photographs you want without making the day feel like one long photo session.

The Manor at Greasby

A playful portrait outside The Manor at Greasby. Moments like this often happen when a couple feels free to be themselves, without stiff poses or a long list of instructions.

A little time in the evening light.

West Tower has space for a quiet portrait together when the light changes. Together, these photographs show both the calm of a sunset portrait and the energy of a confetti moment at the venue.

From Lancashire to Cumbria, I can travel across the North West. Share your venue and date when you enquire so we can talk through the details.

After the speeches

The party is part of the story.

Of course, the day does not stop when the formal photographs are finished. Afterwards, first dances, unexpected moves and everyone cheering you on deserve their own space in your gallery.

That mix of feeling and atmosphere is why I love photographing weddings across the North West. If it sounds like your sort of day, have a look at the coverage options and tell me your plans.

A few things you might be wondering

North West wedding
photography questions.

Something else on your mind?
Ask Andy ↗

Do you photograph weddings across North West England?

Yes. I photograph weddings in Cheshire, Liverpool and Merseyside, Greater Manchester, Lancashire and Cumbria. If you are planning further afield in the North West, send me your venue and date and I can confirm availability and travel details.

Have you photographed at our North West wedding venue?

The photographs here include Bolton School, The Manor at Greasby, Abbey House Hotel, Hilltop Country House, West Tower, Thornton Hall Hotel and Owen House. If your venue is not pictured, tell me where you are getting married. Either way, I can still talk you through my approach.

We are camera shy. Will portraits take over our day?

No. Instead, I photograph the day as it happens, then give you gentle direction for portraits and family photographs when you need it. We can plan a short window for photographs together and leave plenty of time with your guests.

Where can we see prices and check our date?

First, visit my wedding photography packages for current options. Then send your date, venue and a little about your plans through the contact page. I will confirm whether I am available.
