Wedding Photographer Bedfordshire

Bedfordshire wedding photography for a  couple who want something different. You’ve got style, you love to laugh and you want an experience with your family and friends you’ll never forget. my work celebrates who you are as individuals, I capture personalities. I don’t believe in posing pictures in my Bedfordshire wedding photography, instead I give you the space to be yourselves, to show love and affection however you express those feelings in your own unique way. my couples want pictures that show they had fun with their guests, bridesmaids and groomsmen. this way, when you receive your photographs, the images of you you recognise, they’re you being affectionate and laughing in the same way you do everyday. I’m Liam Smith and I believe weddings should be photographed candidly and capture all of the joy, laughter and tears that come along with any good wedding. my business is family run and based in Bedford, I offer my couples stunning photography of their special day that they can cherish forever.

…and this is how it’s done

How I Photograph Weddings in Bedford: My Approach

As a documentary wedding photographer, my job is to not only pay attention, but to interact, to talk and to understand. By being a part of your day in the fullest sense is how I’m able to tell such rich and layered stories. I discreetly capture a wedding by being fully immersed in it. I’m quite tall, but you won’t know I’m there. I think my portfolio is testament to my ability to blend in. Weddings take a considerable amount of planning, months and years go into putting together the perfect day, you need to know you have an experienced photographer on your team who will deliver excellent images and film. my photographs capture each moment, allowing you to relive the day for years to come. your day will fly by, its a bit cliché, but its true. you need your wedding photographer to capture everything as there’s so much you’ll miss. from intimate moments between friends to your oldest cousin doing a roly poly down a hill, these moments happen in a flash, luckily, I’m one of the best documentary wedding photographers Bedfordshire has to offer, lets catch up over beers.

 

Creative Wedding Photography in Befordshire, and Beyond

weddings should be fun, and I believe your photographs should reflect everything that happened on the day. there are of course always tears and emotional hugs, these moments require an experienced hand to capture yet not intrude. the last thing you want is to look back on an emotional photograph of you crying, only for it to remind you of how you could see me out of the corner of your eye ruining the moment for you. That’s the amazing thing about photographs, it doesn’t matter what is happening in the image if the memory you have attached to that moment is a negative one. It’s why I think so many people ae disappointed with their wedding photographs, it’s because they didn’t take the time to meet with their photographer, and then didn’t like them on the day. subsequently they have lovely photographs, but the have a negative association with them because of how the photographer made them feel. That’s why its so important we meet up before hand.
Bedfordshire is a truly stunning county and worthy of any wedding celebration. if you’re local to the county and looking for some inspiration on the best venue, here’s a round up of the stand out venues in the area: Shortmead, the safari lodge, Eggington house, Flaxbourne gardens, Tofte manor, Moreteyne manor, the sculpture gallery at Woburn Abbey, Bassmead manor barns, the auction house, the barn at brook end green farm
