Hi, I'm Jamie 👋

"Professional, personable and extremely talented"
My approach to photographing your wedding is very informal, relaxed and to try and have a bit of fun, but always staying professional. It’s always good to have some of the traditional “staged” photos of the happy couple, family, bridal party etc… and that’s absolutely something we can incorporate into your day. However, I love capturing the natural and raw moments & emotion throughout the day, I truly believe these are the best photographs.

Where to start...Jamie is AMAZING!

His photography style aims to capture those candid moments which make for amazing memories to look back on. Alongside his amazing photography Jamie is also an amazing person. He makes a significant effort to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera, we did an engagement shoot with Jamie which made us feel very relaxed and less anxious about having lots of photos taken of us on the wedding day.

No.1 Wedding Photographer in The North West

If you’re thinking about booking any other than Jamie Ellis Photography , then stop right there! Jamie is a bona fide 5 star professional. From an initial zoom conversation, through face to face meeting, until the final presentation of the pictures, he was brilliant. On the day of the wedding, he arrived early to do his preparations and some reconnaissance . Jamie stayed much later than we’d expected too. He was very professional but thoroughly friendly throughout the day. We barely noticed he was there at times, as he took his shots candidly, to capture the most natural of moments. When we had the prearranged shots, he was serenely calm with everyone too. We can’t recommend him highly enough! Thank you so much Jamie Lisa & Lee ❤️❤️

Incredible photographer

If we could give six stars we would! Jamie Ellis is not only an incredibly talented photographer, he is also a lovely guy whose attention to detail is second to none. We got married very quickly (16 weeks from start to finish) due to the deterioration of my mother's dementia and from the start Jamie made us feel comfortable (we are not lovers of having our picture taken), he was sensitive to our situation and his pictures have captured moments we will cherish for a life time. Above all of this, the way Jamie chatted to my mum, and helped her when she became distressed was truly beautiful to see and he went above and beyond to get the best possible pictures. Jamie was there from 9.30am to around 10.30pm and he didn't stop. When we were all preoccupied enjoying the most special day of our lives, Jamie was off looking around the grounds for the perfect photo opportunities, places with the best lighting and specific areas of the grounds which could produce some astonishingly beautiful pictures. We would recommend Jamie without a second thought and we hope to see his name nominated for many photography awards in the future. We are so grateful for everything Jamie Ellis! Thank you! Leanne and Phil Barry

Amazing photos

We chose Jamie as our photographer August 2024 and we couldn’t have chosen a better person to capture our day. From start to finish, Jamie didn’t stop! We were both quite apprehensive about being in front of the camera but Jamie did a fab job at putting us as ease and making us feel comfortable. He was even kind enough to video the ceremony and speeches on the day when I found out my grandparents couldn’t make it. Jamie worked endlessly all day and carried on late into the evening reception, to the point where we had to tell him he should go home! He was so dedicated to making sure he captured all the best moments of the day and did an amazing job. When we received the photos we were blown away at how beautiful they are. Both the natural and formal shots are amazing and it is going to be difficult choosing which photos to put in our album as there are so many stunning pictures. We would definitely recommend Jamie for anyone looking for a photographer next year.

Jamie was the best!

We just want to start this by saying a huge thankyou to Jamie. Due to a last minute cancellation 9 days before our big day, Jamie was happy to juggle things around and take time out to shoot our big day. He still even managed to make his way to Walton hall and meet me and Connor there a few days before to talk through potential photo opportunities. When Jamie arrived at my mum and dads on the morning of the wedding he instantly made me (Robyn the bride) feel at ease. With all the kaos going on, he made me feel relaxed, he was so thorough and talked me through everything that was going on and how to capture the most fantastic pictures. He also said to me that if at any point I didn’t feel comfortable, to stressed etc or wanted some time away then that’s fine. When I got to the venue Jamie put me at ease, calmed me down and made me feel so comfortable. We didn’t even realise Jamie was here with us at our wedding, he was hidden away but still managed to take the most amazing photos. It was also so nice for myself, Connor and Jamie to go away for half an hour around the Walton hall grounds to capture some amazing photos. Jamie is the most down to earth man we have ever met, we all got on from the start and we really regret not having him sit with us for our wedding breakfast because he is genuinely a nice guy. His photography skills are fantastic and we are over the moon with all our amazing photos. We would recommend Jamie to anyone who asks me for a recommended photographer. Thanks again Jamie x

Perfect from start to finish

All we can say is how amazing Jamie was throughout the whole process. From the first time we met with him to discuss the wedding, we knew he was the right one for us. Not being the most comfortable behind the camera, he immediately put us at ease when we discussed what we wanted from the day. When it came to communication, he made everything so straight forward and stress free, which is exactly what we needed in amongst all of the other wedding stress. We had an engagement shoot with Jamie and despite the wind and rain, put his all into getting to know us and really helped us enjoy something way out of our comfort zone. Once we received the engagement photos, we knew that we had nothing to worry about with the wedding - they were in the moment and natural, just as we had asked. Prior to the wedding, Jamie stayed in touch and it really felt like he was there whenever we needed. On the day of the wedding, Jamie was simply amazing and every guest that we have spoken to has mentioned how patient and hardworking he was. We felt completely in control of the day and not only did Jamie take on board what we had asked for, but reminded us to enjoy the day, with no pressure to spend long periods away from guests. We unfortunately didn’t manage to have some of our close family at the wedding due to illness, but Jamie was so kind and managed to record some of the key moments of the day for us with only a few days notice. He captured every moment that we could have wanted and more and we are so grateful to have found someone that put so much effort into making our day super special. The quality of photos are incredible and would recommend to anyone looking for the perfect wedding photographer.

Amazing photographer

Jamie was amazing. From our first meeting with him to our big day he went above and beyond for us. The photographs we have received are incredible and really captured our day perfectly. Jamie even drove back to get my bouquet as I forgot it for some of the pictures. If you’re looking for someone to work with you and really capture the feel of your special day look no further! I could not recommend highly enough.

If you're wondering whether to book with Jamie as your photographer - DO IT!!!

After researching lots of photographers, Jamie had the exact style we were looking for - mostly candids and beautifully vibrant photos. We looked through his portfolio and imagined photos like that of us and our family and friends. We had a pre-wedding shoot with Jamie which helped us get to know him ready for the big day! On the day, Jamie was such a positive, hard-working person to have around - and honestly during the ceremony we didn't even notice he was there! He took the most stunning photos of our day, and, just as we expected and wanted, our absolute favourites are the candid moments. Jamie is an incredible photographer, and he captured moments that we will cherish forever. Thank you Jamie!!!

You will not find a better photographer!

Jamie is absolutely wonderful! A pleasure to work with and a stellar photographer to boot. Incredibly hardworking and accommodating, guests were saying all day how much effort he was putting in - and they weren't wrong! Our photos are stunning and exactly the vibe we wanted. Jamie deserves 5 stars and more.

Jamie is so much more than a photographer

Where do I start? Jamie was our knight in shining armour. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we found ourselves without a photographer three weeks out from our wedding. On the off chance, I gave Jamie a call having seen his stunning work online. The fates shone and he had our date free. From that moment on, Jamie did absolutely everything to put our minds at ease and ensure that all we were feeling ahead of the day was excitement. Full review available on my website.........

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

August 2022, Elen & Andy. The wedding was originally scheduled for May but had to be re-arranged due to the poor health of the father of the bride. Although nowhere near 100%, he was well enough to attend the wedding and had the whole room in tears during his speech breaking out into song!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Professional, meticulous, passionate, thorough and fun!

What about your business are you most proud of?

Built from nothing and the overwhelming feedback I've had from my clients so far.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Don't get too stressed! Whatever will be will be and the day will fly by so quickly, just relax and enjoy it!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

There isn't one specific thing. For me, I absolutely love seeing how couples prepare their special day with the touches that are personal to them.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I like to have an initial meet up to discuss the basic details and hopefully agree a booking. I'm then available at any point from then until the big day should the couple want to ask any questions, discuss any specific ideas etc.... I would then have at least one more meeting with the couple (ideally at the venue) to go over all the specific details of the day. After the day, I try to get some fully produced sample images to the couple within 24 hours and then the full gallery delivered within two weeks of the wedding.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

There isn't one photo I think every couple should take. However, what I do believe in passionately is the natural element of photographing a wedding day. There is always at least one photo from every wedding that stands out, but it's never the same shot at every wedding.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

Nothing too out there to date, probably getting the dog involved is about as off the wall as I've done so far.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Make the most of it as you can't control the weather! Typically having been to the venue(s) in the build up with the couple, I'll have an indoor wet weather plan but I'm also up for some full in the rain if the couple are!

Describe how you got into photography.

Photography has been a passion for over 10 years and it's always something I've loved during that time. But in the end, through encouragement from friends, family and clients and being told "you've got the eye for it", I was driven to do turning my passion into a career and so Jamie Ellis Photography was born!
