ABOUT ME
CREATIVE WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY
This is probably the hardest page to write on my website...the dreaded 'about me' page! Ive got no idea what to ramble on about really so bear with me. I guess I should probably start with the basics—Hi, I’m Craig! I live in a little village in Leicestershire with the wife, Kelly, our three kids, and a house that somehow keeps filling up with random Amazon purchases I didn’t know I needed (seriously, it’s a problem). I’m a bit of a foodie (apologies in advance if you catch me sneaking a canapé at your wedding) and love a cheeky craft beer—because hey, after a long wedding shoot, who doesn’t deserve a pint, right?
I’ve been shooting weddings for over 10 years, and even after the hundreds of weddings I've been too, it never gets old. Every “I do,” every questionable dance move, every belly laugh and happy tear—it’s always a fresh story. Being a wedding photographer is basically like having a backstage pass to some of the best parties ever, and I get to meet awesome people along the way.
I need to pad this out a bit more so here's some random facts about me: I’ve got a gun license (totally legal, I promise), I’m a qualified scuba diver, and during Covid I got bored and took a plastering course... and then decided to build a 380-square-foot studio in our garden (my wife then claimed half of it for a new salon)... I may have gone a little overboard but it kept me busy and out of mischief! Im big lover of music and always got something banging out, driving my family mad, apparently I'm a noisy man and I weirdly love cooking Sunday dinners.
Now for some random facts about me: I’ve got a gun license (totally legal, I promise!), I’m a qualified scuba diver, and when Covid hit, I got bored and took a plastering course to pass the time... which then spiralled into me building a studio in our garden. My wife, of course, claimed half of it for her new salon—but hey, it kept me busy and (mostly) out of trouble! I once snapped a ski clean in half while skiing (told you these were random), but I stick to boarding these days...it's meant to be cooler, right? I’m also a massive music lover, and I've always got something loud playing—driving my family mad, apparently I'm a "noisy man." Oh, and I’ve got a weirdly strong passion for cooking epic Sunday dinners. Nothing like a good roast to round off the week!
So, that’s me in a nutshell—photographer, husband, dad, and someone who’s always ready for the next great adventure. Oh, and if you ever need plastering tips, I’m your guy!
MY APPROACH
Every photographer brings their own flair to the table, and mine? Well, it's all about being creative, colorful, and fun—without any of that cheesy stuff. I'm like a stealth ninja with my camera, carefully selecting those magic moments that capture all the emotion, joy, and significance of your special day.
I’m not one to bombard you with endless snaps like a paparazzi on a caffeine high. Instead, I prefer to blend into the background, letting you relax and enjoy your day while I work my behind-the-scenes wizardry.
With over a decade of wedding photography under my belt, I've honed my skills to be in the right place at the right time, capturing those fleeting, unforgettable moments that make your wedding uniquely yours.
Photography isn't just a job for me—it's my passion turned career. If you want to see what my couples have to say about my work, check out my testimonials.
