Winter Wedding Photography

Whitby wedding photographer

It’s nearly time for me to have a well-earned rest with the family, Christmas now being less than a week away. I’ve been busy editing this week and love the finished results of my work.

There are many advantages to getting married in the winter season, however, winter wedding photography does bring its own challenges as there is less day light and guests are often reluctant to step outside and certainly don’t want to be hanging around for very long. For this reason, I always carry good lighting equipment and a professional grade camera perfectly set up for winter low lighting conditions.

Not all photographers are set up well to deal with low lighting and some struggle with flash, losing the ambiance through harsh, artificial lighting. It is about knowing your craft and being able to strike the right balance between giving the natural conditions a little help and keeping the atmosphere just right.

Winter wedding photography can bring its own magic with snow filled backdrops and winter sun making for some very striking pictures, not to mention the dramatic backdrop of many indoor venues at this time of year, particularly around Christmas and Halloween. 

So, if you are looking for the ideal winter wedding photographer in Leeds, Manchester, Birmingham or Yorkshire, take a look at some of my images below. You’ll see what a difference the right photographer with the best equipment can bring to your special day.
