Manu Mendoza Wedding Photography

I've just seen a very good friends photos captured by Manu, absolutely amazing...!

"I am so obsessed with the photos he took on our wedding day, I know how I felt during those moments but he makes me relive every moment again just looking at them. He's super talented and captures emotions, thoughts, gestures and purity that not many photographers manage to show. He tells a story with his photos... It's like going to an amazing art museum and loving every piece and knowing who the artist is because it's so unique and breathtakingly real!"

The photography is amazing and it’s the little touches of the pictures that’s gives it the edge

Manu was my favourite supplier during my wedding...his level of customer service was exceptional and the variety of options provided by his photography service was excellent. Wedding photographers were something I really did my homework on. Most photographers only provide you with the photos on a USB stick but not an album. I knew I would not have the time to put my wedding pictures into an album and the USB stick would be lost at some point. Manu also provided an engagement photography session at a location of our choice. Again something no other wedding photographer I liked offered. The engagement session was fun and I’m not one for having my photograph taken or being posey! Manu had a natural flair for making me and my fiancé relaxed and took some great pictures that we have since had printed by Manu. Manu took his time during the consultation phase to get to know us and our expectations. His online communication portal was amazing and we were able to see all our photos and choose favourites. We were also able to share links with family and friends. On the wedding day, Manu was there but wasn’t overtly there. I’ve seen so many wedding photographers be very pushy and brash and monopolise photos. Manu was calm and relaxed, he organised the family photos with ease and took me and my husband away for our individual session. This was a nice time to reflect and Manu worked so well with our videographer too. After the wedding,​ Manu invited us round to his studio and made us feel so welcome whilst he showed us the photos he took and also placed them into a slideshow he created with a soundtrack. We then were able to choose the type of album design/material we wanted. Manu uses Queensbury a prestigious album designer. I have recommended Manu so many times to other brides to be as he is passionate about his business, his images and more importantly the experience that his couples have with him. I noticed a negative review above and could not disagree more from my perspective and experience I received from Manu. Manu clearly communicates and actually over communicates compared to and from my experience of wedding suppliers. He is so caring and customer service driven and deserves the awards and praise he has received to date! I have used Manu again after my wedding for imagery to be taken for my business, again done to a high standard.

Manu did an engagement shoot for me as my husband as we didn't have one prior to our wedding and felt like we were missing such photographs. As a wedding planner,​ I have worked with many great photographers but I must say that the skills Manu has in making you feel comfortable in front of the camera are second to none. I always tell brides that liking your photographer is key, after all, you're going to be spending a lot of time with them on your big day. Manu really does tick that box. He has a unique, yet consistent style, so you know what sort of images you'll come away with, removing some of the uncertainty you may otherwise feel.

Manu became a friend during the whole process of working with him towards our special day. He makes you feel very at ease and takes the most amazing photos and is just so fun and calming to have around on the day. He is so good the photos have actually featured in the January edition of Brides magazine! Look no further and hurry before he gets booked up! Thank-you again Manu you’re the best. Tiffany and Paul

Manu was the most amazing and personal wedding photographer my partner and I could have dreamed of!! We had an engagement shoot which made us feel at ease in front of the camera and Manu was so great at making sure we were comfortable and happy, it was also great fun! On our wedding day,​ Manu was fantastic, he has such a wonderful presence and we are so excited to view our photo's! I would 100% recommend Manu to anyone who is looking for a photographer who will make them feel comfortable throughout the whole day and also Manu is just such a lovely friendly guy!

Manu took the time to get to know my daughter and her fiancé, doing an engagement photo shoot prior to the wedding. It helps him to see how the ​bride and groom are in front of the camera and helps him to plan for the big day. We cannot speak highly enough of Manu, his attention to detail is amazing and we are so pleased with the photographs and the slideshow is beautiful. We particularly like the photos which were not 'posed' some very natural, lovely photos. We are finding it very difficult to choose which ones we want now. Thank you so much Manu for being a big part of my daughter's wedding. Extremely happy to recommend your photography services. Janet Cox

We asked some of our favourite wedding photographers to choose and write about their most​ memorable shots of LGBTQ couples

"Everything about our experience with Manu was perfect. The photos are fantastic and capture our day documentary style exactly as we wanted, looking fantastic! Manu made us feel so comfortable that neither of us or our guests realised he was there. There were so many fantastic photos that we are struggling to decide on which ones to use for prints etc...". WHY DID YOU BOOK "We booked Manu as we had seen a photo on Facebook and liked the look of it. His use of colour on a camper van made the photo 'pop' and knowing our wedding was to be a colourful affair we knew we needed someone who had a flare with colour".
