FALKIRK WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

TOTALLY UNPOSED, COMPLETELY YOU

If the thought of all that posing on your wedding day fills you with dread, then the way i work could be just what you're looking for.

no posing, no staging, no interuptions.

your day, shot totally naturally & candidly so that you can just be "you".

I'm Mike, a WPJA World Top 10 wedding photographer, 550+ weddings over 16 years, Falkirk based but will travel anywhere for a great party.

Sounds good?

LET'S CHAT

IS THIS FOR YOU?

Come the big day, I work in a "ninja-like", candid style, documenting your day rather than directing it ... you might even forget I'm there, which isn't a bad thing!

Candid (or documentary) wedding photography isn't for everybody though, and that's totally fine. If you're looking for perfectly posed & styled pictures similar to what you might see in wedding magazines, and a photographer who'll direct you around all day and stage a lot of moments, then I'm definitely not the right fit for you and there are plenty of other guys out there who'll do that for you.

If on the other hand, you want a photographer who'll blend into the background and capture your day in an authentic style exactly as it unfolds, then that's absolutely how I roll.

All those little looks, the laughs, the emotions and unscripted moments (good and bad) - the "real" stuff, in other words. That's what I capture!

I want you to look back at your day through your pictures and remember what it "felt" like to be there, not just what it looked like! I hope you do too.

A Photographer You Can Trust?

Absolutely! I've been around a while now, shooting over 500 weddings across 16 years in all conditions - we do live in Scotland after all. Pouring rain, snow, dark churches, drunk guests, trashed wedding cakes (true story) etc etc - yep, I've pretty much seen it all ... and dealt with it all - you're in good hands guys!

These days, I only shoot around 20 weddings a year, so you can be assured that I'll be giving each and every wedding maximum focus both on the day itself and afterwards too working on your pictures and albums.

Couple Shoots

Although I do generally take a more hands-off approach, on what can often be a hectic day, some "couple time" pictures away from the crowd can be a good thing, if you want it. I recognise that, for a lot of couples, this can be a little daunting ... but fear not. Chilled out and natural is how we go - no cheesy grinning, no awkward stiff posing ... you just be you and I'll take the pictures.

Think of it more as a short break from the party ... 10 to 15 mins just to yourselves which you totally deserve. Go for a walk, grab a seat somewhere, watch the world go by ... it's up to you!

Group Shots

An endless list of stiff, boring, formal poses is not for me. But there's nothing to stop you grabbing a few folk together for some quick group shots if you wish.

Maybe your wedding party, parents, close family, a few besties etc. You decide ... or have none at all if you prefer.

Whatever you decide, it'll be quick - no intricate posing of hands and feet, no standing stiff as a board. Connection rather than perfection is the name of the game.

Oh, we'll have a bit of fun doing them as well!
