I'm Liam, This Guy

I take my work incredibly seriously. Myself? Not so much…

I’ve studied photography and Art for the best part of twenty years, I teach it, I write about it, I live it. I love it as a form of creative expression and it’s a genuine honour and privilege to be able to share in a couples joy and tell their story through pictures. 

 

On this page, explore my diverse portfolio to get a glimpse of the captivating wedding moments I’ve had the pleasure of capturing throughout Northamptonshire. From converted barns at Dodford to the majesty of the Mansion at Kelmarsh Hall, my portfolio highlights my versatility in adapting to various wedding themes, cultures, and styles while maintaining the highest quality and artistic vision.

I've Photographed Weddings All Over Northamptonshire

I’ve travelled across Northamptonshire capturing amazing photographs and making awesome memories. If you can’t see your venue listed, it may well be because my clients requested their images remain private. If I’ve not worked at your venue, then we can always go there before the day to check it out! I am fortunate enough to have photographed wedding ceremonies across Northampton and at various wedding venues, including Dodmoor House, Dodford Manor, Chicheley Hall (OMG they took away the pterodactyls!!), Castle Ashby, Crockwell Farm, Daventry, Highgate House, Staverton Park, Stoke Park, Kelmarsh Hall, Whittlebury Park, Holdenby House, Quinton House, The Guildhall, Sedgbrook Hall, and Plum Park, to name a few.  Photos fill the gaps that words cannot express. If you’re having a party and need a photographer who isn’t afraid to join in on the dance floor, don’t hesitate to contact me

"Knowing that I wouldn't have to pose or do anything awkward made having Liam photograph our day so much easier. His skill in capturing natural moments without any forced poses made our day that much more special. Liam's style and approach allowed us to feel completely at ease and be ourselves. He has a keen eye for detail and was able to capture the little moments that we will remain special to us forever (like my Grandma holding my hand. I love that one :) ). I've no idea how he does it, it was like he was everywhere. I had high hopes after seeing the portfolio but how you captured the emotion and the story of our day was truly amazing, and the photos are so far beyond our expectations. We loved the slideshow, it really told the story of the day - it was so wonderful to see moments we missed and to watch everyone enjoying themselves. If you are looking for a photographer who can capture your wedding day with all the emotions and beauty it deserves, Liam is your guy!"

…and this is how it’s done

How I Photograph Weddings. My Approach

As a somewhat exuberant wedding photojournalist it may come as a surprise that I am incredibly adept at going unnoticed, I blend in so well because I’m able to empathise with my subjects and know when to get close and when to remove myself. Some people need space, it’s my job to know when to be a photographer and when to be a human being. My role goes beyond merely observing; I engage and converse with guests. Fully immersing myself in your celebration enables me to weave intricate and multi-layered tales. I can photograph the essence of a wedding by being an integral part of it. Although I’m quite tall, you’ll hardly notice my presence and my portfolio undoubtedly showcases my knack for blending in. Fear not though, for when it’s time to rallying the crowd for a group photograph I’ve got my teachers voice nailed!

My work melds various styles and techniques, forging a distinct style, unique to me. When a moment is humorous I can call on my photojournalism skills and play with a moment compositionally; while tender moments call for a gentler, fine art touch. A top-notch photographer possesses a wide range of skills and the expertise to know when to utilise each. My images encapsulate your unique qualities and the connection you share, all without staging or re-enacting moments.
