Paul Waring Photographer Full Description
I’m a chilled out, coffee-guzzling Wedding Photographer for relaxed and fun couples. I live in the lovely market town of Standish on the border of Lancashire with my Fiancé and a growing selection of fury kids. I photographed my first ever weddings on board a cruise ship over ten years ago and after working on lots of boring commercial photography jobs, I returned to my love of parties and people in 2016. Nowadays I spend my working life shooting unique and beautiful weddings for not-so-traditional couples. I’m privileged to have the best job in the world, and love what I do even when it rains!

he made us all feel so at ease

From booking Paul as our photographer, to the wedding day, to receiving our photos, Paul communicated everything with us brilliantly! On the big day, he made us all feel so at ease and got some amazing photos which we will cherish forever! Paul was so flexible in getting lots of shots of family and friends and did it all with a smile on his face. We love Paul’s natural, light photos and this is what drew us to him. We also loved receiving all our prints in black and white too! Paul sent our photos to us in a very timely manner which we could share with all of the family. We would like to say a big thank you for your hard work on the day and after! We can’t recommend you enough! ☺️

professional, friendly, and nonintrusive

If you are looking for a photographer who is professional, friendly, and nonintrusive, then look no further than Paul Waring. Paul put all our guests at ease and was superb at catching the wedding day as it truly happened, in a natural and organic way. Paul was extremely attentive to our needs, and we are so happy with the final photos. We can’t wait to put our album together and we’re sure it will mirror the quality of the rest of Paul’s service.

From the very beginning when we first met Paul, h

Thank you so much Paul for our fantastic wedding photos. From the very beginning when we first met Paul, he was so kind and easy to chat to. We absolutely adore our photos - he's captured the day perfectly with so many natural photos. He stayed til the very end and we are so grateful he did as he captured lots of the funny evening photos! Paul was quick to respond throughout and delivered our photos quickly after the wedding. Thank you so much - you made our special day even more perfect!

We can’t thank Paul enough

We can’t thank Paul enough for capturing our big day perfectly. We won a competition on Facebook and met up to meet with Paul in our local coffee shop ( he loves his coffee shops) and instantly we liked him. Kind, funny, perfect to get on with and someone relaxed who doesn’t put too much pressure on you. Paul went above and beyond on our big day too, capturing a picture of a lost loved one with a member of our family which touched Paul’s heart and he went out of his way to get the photo printed off and brought to us whilst the day was still going on. The group photos were quick and Paul was very organised as to who was in what group photos etc. Everyone at the wedding commented how lovely and how easy it was to get on with him. As we aren’t a couple who love to stand and pose for photos, all the natural shots he captured are perfect. He was even able to take some lovely pictures of some of the things my sister had made for me for her little business too. If you’re looking a natural photographer who captures the best shots of the day (I mean the traditional ones still need to be done but personally I love the natural ones) then Paul’s your guy! Again thank you so much for our photos. We will treasure them for ever. Definitely will not forget your amazing work on the day. Thank you. Mr and Mrs Newman

so nice to see how much you love what you do

From the very beginning when we met virtually in lockdown, Paul has been so helpful and also really bubbly and easy to get on with! On our wedding day he put us so at ease we almost felt as though he was a guest! Everyone commented how lovely you were and it was so nice to see how much you love what you do, showing us pictures you were proud of throughout the day. And that really comes across in the final result - we have a beautiful set of many many photos that tell the story of the day! I don’t know how you did it but you captured every emotion and each time we look through the photos we get the feeling we’re reliving it. We can’t thank you enough!

he captured the most beautiful photos

Couldn't recommend Paul enough. Not only did he put us both at ease, he captured the most beautiful photos without us barely noticing on the day. He was a pleasure to have share our day, a true talent. Thank you Paul!

Paul is your man for the job!

We chose Paul back in 2018 for our Harry Potter themed wedding which was due to take place in July 2020. As you can imagine we has to postpone until July 2021 and Paul made it happen for us and took all the related stress away. We've had numerous meetings over the years to discuss what we would like and how we would like it and Paul's always been happy to help! On our day Paul was truly amazing, putting me at ease as my wife walks down the aisle and I'm literally going "omg omg omg". We chose Paul for his "fly on the wall" style and he didn't disappoint! Capturing moments that normally get missed. All our guests commented on how personable and professional Paul is and how he just blended in so well (which is exactly what we wanted) If you want a photographer who truly captures everything and those little moments you think they'd miss, well Paul is your man for the job!

PAUL IS AMAZING

PAUL IS AMAZING. From our first contact with him he was friendly, helpful, responsive and most of all reassuring that me and my awkward friends & family would be fine in front of his camera. On the run up to the wedding his communication was flawless and we always knew where we were up to payment wise, and on the same page when it came to what we wanted from the day. Paul blended right in with our guests and everyone commented on what a nice guy he was. He stayed a little after the first dance which was brilliant as he caught some hilarious moments which a lot of photographers would miss. We received our full gallery in no time at all and we were transported right back to our wedding day. We will treasure these photos and happy memories forever. The addition of a Monochrome folder and the photo film/slideshow is brilliant too. If you want "Pinterest perfect" posed photos Paul may not be the guy for you. If you want a true capture of your day that you can look back on for years to come then Paul is absolutely for you. Thank you SO much, Paul!! :)

We can’t recommend Paul highly enough

Paul was fantastic. My husband and I are both pretty camera shy so the thought of being photographed all day was a little daunting. But from the moment I first messaged Paul to enquire about our date he helped to really put me at ease. He is incredibly personable and very skilled and making you feel comfortable in his presence. Paul was with us for the full day (from the morning whilst I was getting ready until into the evening reception) and he honestly helped us to have the best day. We were never away from our guests for long but we have some truly stunning photos which we will treasure forever. Going through them again was amazing as Paul had perfectly captured our day which enables us to relive it by going through the pictures. The hardest job we have now is choosing which ones to frame! We can’t recommend Paul highly enough - especially if like us you’re camera shy.
