Wedding Photographer Manchester…

Wedding Photographer Manchester.There’s more to photography than just clicking a button and taking a photo. It’s really about capturing the emotion and atmosphere in the moment. It’s what I love so much about photography, it forces you to be present.

Hi my name is Priti (pronounced pretty). I’m a Manchester wedding photographer also covering the north west & beyond. I’m a creative documentary wedding photographer. I love to tell stories through the lens. When I’m not at weddings, you can find me in a photo pit at a concert, photographing press sessions with bands and artists, exploring a new city or town, or reading a book. I’ve always loved all forms of creative media, I studied Multimedia & Internet back at Uni and after working in an office for 6 months, decided it wasn’t for me! I went travelling for the best part of a year and had the best time, having recently brought a camera, it came with me. Upon returning back to the UK, I had NO IDEA what I wanted to do work wise. And so I thought I would give freelancing or self employment a go. Here we are.

Since starting this journey, I’ve had the opportunity to work with some amazing clients ranging from education institutions to commercial clients to my couples – And I love it (even the admin stuff!) Clients have described my work as creative, documentary and captivating, so I’ve ran with that! I love to photograph fly on the wall but I also love to engage with guests so you end up with a nice mix of photos from the day. I’m super relaxed and well…informal! Camera shy? So am I! You don’t have to worry, I got your back with capturing those candids. My work has been published to print media along with online like over at Plans & Present’s Wedding Blog, Rock n Roll Bride, Asian Wedding Ideas. If you like what you see here on the website and would like to meet for a chat over a coffee or JD & Coke – get in touch!

Kind words

What my couples think…

There’s no good in me trying to convince you so I’ll let my couples do the talking…

The whole wedding process has been amazing. From the first time we met to see the venue, to the check ins, the wedding day and how you fit in without being overbearing. To the thoughtful gifts, the perfect little personalised gift set and wedding memory stick that are just amazing. I couldn’t recommend you highly enough. Thank you so much for capturing our perfect day ❤️

Willa & Dave

The Huntsman Inn Wedding

“We booked Priti for our Wedding in March 2018. She was professional, personable, friendly and took time to genuinely get to know us and what we wanted on the day.
Priti was brilliant on the day and got loads of candid shots alongside the requested formal shots without being intrusive.

We’ve never been particularly keen on formal wedding photos and the length of time group shots can take and Priti understood that and kept those to a minimum for us.
Where Priti really shines is an eye for the slightly unusual and some of the photos that we love most are not your conventional wedding backdrops at all.
The final photos were delivered in a beautifully presented gift box that’s a really special keep sake for the future.
We’d have no hesitation in recommending Priti to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding in future.
Thank you for capturing our special day!!”

“The Pictures were absolutely amazing and the black and white shots captured the vintage theme. Everything was done with class and professionalism even from the initial consultation. I am beyond pleased with the pictures which has given me beautiful memories for this special landmark and my family love them!!”

Sale Town Hall Wedding

“We had a fabulous experience with Priti as our wedding photographer, she was flexible to accommodate our requests, personable and friendly. She took time to learn about us as a couple and find out what was important to us. We had great fun on the day and captured some great memories, I would not hesitate to recommend Priti.”

Melissa & Tony – Liverpool Town Hall Wedding

“Priti, you were wonderful and we were over the moon with how well you fitted in with the day and just went with the flow. You have done an amazing job and we were lucky to have found you!
You worked incredibly hard all day and must have been shattered but we were so grateful for every photo you took, capturing all the parts we missed”

Vanessa & Dave

Bolton School Wedding

I can’t thank Priti enough, as she was so professional yet quirky, taking a combination of traditional shots and ones that were more suited to us. She worked our personalities out over months and one Skype conversation. However, I think it was in the space of a few hours that she really knew us and worked with that.
I can’t thank her enough! She is amazing.
