Based in Newcastle upon Tyne, Paul Flannigan is a wedding photographer and videographer who specializes in capturing the real, heartfelt moments of your big day. His style focuses on documenting your wedding as it naturally happens, so you can relax and enjoy every second. From genuine smiles and warm hugs to happy tears, Paul creates a beautiful collection of images that tell the story of your love and the joy shared with your family and friends.
Paul knows that you want to be present with your loved ones, not constantly posing for photos. That’s why he works mostly in a documentary style, blending seamlessly with your guests to capture candid moments full of emotion and connection. While he does take traditional family portraits, his main goal is to preserve the authentic interactions that make your wedding day truly unique. This way, your photos reflect how everyone felt, not just what they were asked to do.
Paul is dedicated to telling the full story of your wedding day—from the excitement of morning preparations to the lively celebrations late into the evening. He often stays beyond the first dance to capture the energy and fun on the dance floor, making sure no special moment goes unnoticed. This commitment also means he can create stunning evening portraits, no matter the weather.
