He went above and beyond for our day....

We knew from our first meeting he was our photographer. His skills are second to none, from getting to know us briefly in a 30 minute meeting, he totally blew us away on our special day. Andy captured every little moment and has given us the best gift of so many memories of our special day! We asked Andy to capture our fun side and he certainly did that! We cannot thank you enough, can we keep you around forever to capture more of our memories?! Thanks Andy ✨

I genuinely couldn’t recommend Andy any more..

I genuinely couldn’t recommend Andy any more. His whole persona, professionalism, humour, discreetness at the wedding and overall ability to take incredible photographs is why. We changed the date of our wedding so Andy could be our photographer because I loved his style so much and it was genuinely the best decision we made. If you want a photographer that is going to give you everything you want, Andy is the man!

the photos he captured are beyond any expectation

Having a photographer is an obvious part of a wedding to capture the memories, however for us posing for a camera is something we dread. From the first consultation call to the brochure he sent to turning up and spending our day with us there isn’t one possible fault. Professional and relaxed, no job was too big or too small, always having an eye out on capturing every perfect moment.

It was clear to see that he enjoys what he does

My husband and I are so glad that we chose Andy to capture our special day. All of our guests commented on how lovely Andy was, friendly and fit right in with everyone. He was able to get amongst people without being noticed to take the most candid photos! The process of working with Andy from our initial chat to getting our complete collection of photographs has been perfect. We can't recommend Andy enough! Thankyou so much for our beautiful photos ❤️

His style has a lively, colourful edge

Andy did our wedding photography back in June and he was absolutely fantastic! His style has a lively, colourful edge compared to the overly bright white photography we’d often seen, and for our wedding, his style was perfect. Andy captured amazing candid shots of our guests, along with beautiful portraits of us that we’ll treasure forever. He was also incredibly friendly and easy to work with throughout the whole process. We would very highly recommend - Thank you so much, Andy!

Captured to perfection

We had the absolute pleasure of having Andy from A.W Photography as our wedding photographer on 30.12.24, and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. From the moment he arrived, Andy was warm, personable, and made both us and our guests feel completely at ease. He went above and beyond to capture every special moment with genuine care and attention to detail. What truly stood out was how Andy felt like part of the family—he wasn’t just taking photos, he was sharing in our joy and celebrating alongside us. His passion for his work and the people he works with shines through in every photo. We’re so grateful to have had him as part of our day and now have the most beautiful memories to look back on thanks to him. Highly recommend!

Incredibly photographers who were part of the family

On our wedding day we had the same comment over and over again from our guests - "your photographers are amazing - I feel like they are part of the family". And they were absolutely right! I have never met another couple so welcoming as Andy and Julie, from the moment we met them we felt at ease and that comes through in the photos of both our wedding and engagment shoot. I normally don't like to have my photo taken, but I really enjoyed it with Andy and Julie - they gave just the right amount of direction to get rid of any awkwardness about posing and capture beautiful, natural photos. Even knowing how amazing the photos from our engagement shoot were, we not prepared for how phenomenal our wedding pictures would be. The quality of the photos blew us away and captured the day exactly as we remembered it - from the smallest details of our decor, to the final twirl of our first dance, to fun moments with our guests, to the special details that honoured my late mum. We are so lucky to have had Andy and Julie as our wedding photographers and we can't thank them enough for making our wedding day so special, because they were not just our photographers, they really are part of the family.

Most Beautiful photos from the best people

Myself and my husband were married in August this year and hired A W Photography as our first supplier before we even booked the venue. We have loved their photography for a long time and they did not disappoint. From helping with hair clips, pinning on button holes, entertaining children to taking the most breathe taking photos, their service and product was phenomenal from start to finish. Nothing is too much and every wish and vision is catered for. They captured our perfect day, with perfect pictures.

Atmosphere in a Can

We can't recommend Andy and Julie enough, they are THE dream team! From the minute we first met we knew they were just what we were looking for in our wedding photographers. We felt right at home with Andy and Julie and didn't stop laughing the whole day. My hubby hates having his picture taken so it was really important to us that we found someone who made us feel at ease and we definitely found that with Andy. Julie and Andy were both fabulous on the day of the wedding and couldn't do enough for us and our guests. Julie and her little box of tricks came in super handy to entertain the kids and the pooch! Andy was constantly coming up with different and unusual poses to create the perfect photos which we will treasure forever. If you are in the process of choosing your wedding photographer you will not regret choosing AW photography the professionalism and talent are second to none, we are so pleased we chose Andy and Julie. They're not just our photographers they are now our friends. Amazing couple with an amazing talent. P.S when booking make sure you ask for atmosphere in a can it's a must and a wedding wouldn't be a wedding without it! ����
