I'm Michael Gane, a photographer based in Beckington, near Frome in Somerset. I've spent well over 30 years behind a camera, photographing people, places and moments that matter. Well over 70 Google reviews.
I photograph weddings throughout Somerset, Bath, Bristol and further afield, but wherever the wedding takes place, my approach remains the same.
Your wedding is a day to enjoy, not a day to spend with your photographer.
I've always believed the best wedding photographs are often the ones nobody knew were being taken.
A nervous smile before the ceremony. Your dad trying to hold back a tear. That completely unexpected moment on the dance floor when everybody forgets there's a camera in the room.
These are the photographs that take you straight back to how your wedding actually felt.
I work quietly, observing what's happening rather than constantly directing it. Of course, we'll make time for beautiful portraits and those important family photographs, but I won't turn your wedding into an endless photoshoot.
I'd much rather you enjoyed the party.
A personal approach. You'll deal directly with me, from our first conversation through to the delivery of your photographs. I'll listen to your plans, understand what's important to you and help things run naturally.
Photography without the fuss. Genuine moments, real expressions and people being themselves. Nothing overly staged or manufactured.
Beautifully finished photographs. Every image is carefully selected and individually considered, with attention to light, colour and atmosphere. Your finished photographs are delivered through a private online gallery.
Experience when it matters. After more than three decades photographing people, I know when to step forward, when to stand back and when the best thing I can do is simply let a moment happen.
My job isn't to take over your wedding day. It's to capture the story unfolding around you.
The excitement, the chaos, the quiet moments, the laughter and the people who make the day yours.
Years from now, I want you to look at your photographs and remember exactly what it felt like to be there.
