Natural & Fun Manchester Wedding Photographer

I’m Thomas, a Frenchman and a Manchester wedding photographer specialising in relaxed, documentary wedding photography. Based in Stockport, I cover weddings across Greater Manchester, Cheshire, and the wider North West.

I shoot all my weddings with a relaxed approach, also known as documentary photography. Wedding photographs from me are guaranteed to sensitively capture the raw emotions and character of your big day. I’ll be there to record the real moments – the love, the chaos, the laughter, the tears, the fun and the dance moves – to give you the full story and all of those precious moments recorded with a bit of my own brand of je ne sais quoi!

About Me


Fun

We all love a good celebration, and I aim to show everyone in their best light while they fully enjoy the special event you have lovingly designed together.

I appreciate that you will have put so much time and effort into your wedding day to make it an individual and sparkling occasion to share with your loved ones. So it’s my goal to preserve this for you, from the detail in the décor to the shapes thrown on the dance floor!

I love to create bold, fresh, and authentic images packed full of character and feeling.

You’re not going to hear me shout, “SAY CHEESE!” throughout your wedding day. In my opinion, cheese goes well with a nice glass of red, not your wedding photographs. Forced poses and smiles can make your photos cliché and might not be a true expression of the best day of your life.

Of course there will be time to take the two of you out of the wonderful chaos for a breather to focus on you as a couple. We’ll take some relaxed portraits before you rejoin your friends and family for a good time. After all, this day is all about you!

Thomas was simply the best possible photographer for our wedding at Stockport Town Hall. We specifically wanted a candid, casual style, which Thomas delivered beautifully. Because he knew the venue so well, he was also excellent at guiding both us and the guests, and making sure that everything went like clockwork. Added to that, with his personal and friendly attention both before, and afterwards, we cannot recommend him too highly.

Thomas was a fantastic photographer, he made us feel comfortable and made us laugh throughout the day! His laid back approach allowed us to get beautiful natural photos but enjoy every moment of our day without feeling like we missed anything. Thomas got our sneak peak to us quick and the photos were amazing straight away, we then got our full album quicker than expected and a lovely personalised blog to reflect on our special day. Thomas had an efficient booking process and was easily contactable. Our photos were natural and showed our day from a whole new perspective. He went above and beyond climbing through bushes and wading through water to get the perfect shot and is truly dedicated to getting the perfect shot, his attention to detail makes for the perfect photos! We cant thank him enough and would highly recommend his service!

Picking a photographer is such a big decision, you have to be able to gel as they become such an integral part of one of, if not the, most personal and special day of your life. They also capture the moment for you to relive as you get older, so you have to be confident you’ll like what you see! I met Thomas at the Liverpool Wedding Fair, which was a great opportunity to view his work and meet him in person. I immediately loved his candid style of photography, and knew it would capture (what I hoped) would be a day full of laughter, glorious views, and maybe a few tears, without feeling stilted or forced to pose. There was only one issue, I was getting married 200 miles away in South Wales, and then having an after party in Liverpool a month later, I didn’t know if photographers would travel that far, or do 2 events! I needn’t have worried, Thomas put me at ease straight away, said he had no problem travelling that far and doing both events would be no problem. For the whole time between then until the wedding, Thomas was the ultimate professional: he had excellent communication both via email and over the phone, secure payment and contracts online which were easy to complete; and fabulous advice on what works well on the day - after all he’s done more weddings than I had! Despite the distance to Pembrokeshire Thomas was prompt and early on the wedding day, he immediately slotted into our small wedding dynamic and was making all the bridal party laugh with stories of his children’s antics - a perfect icebreaker when people could feel nervous or awkward. He was amazing the whole day, getting people laughing and somehow has a sixth sense on when to focus on getting the perfect emotion filled shot. We had what I thought was perfect blue sky weather, but apparently this can be a bit tricky lighting wise - not that you’d notice from the photos! And so finally the photos, they are perfect in every way. Every single guest has been captured at least once, bits or areas I may not have seen or managed to enjoy, he has captured perfectly for me to look back on. He also has an amazing turn around time, a first browse was available 2 days later (ideal for getting on Instagram), and the full set uploaded securely within 3 weeks. I cannot recommend Thomas highly enough for anyone’s special events but especially weddings; the blog he writes afterwards (how could I forget!) is as beautifully captured as the photos, and is a perfect accompaniment to them. When we saw him again at the second event, it was like seeing an old friend - and I have no higher compliment than that.

I came across Thomas online after searching for photographers locally who would do a small, registry office wedding. What a fantastic find!! Thomas is professional, friendly and chilled out and it was a pleasure to have him with us on our special day. He chatted away to us and made us feel so relaxed. Half the time we didn't even know he was taking photos - it just felt like having a friend there! Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a photographer for their special day 🤍

Thomas did an amazing job throughout planning, on the day and afterwards. We really love our photos -- he captured so many beautiful moments including candid moments between our guests that we had no idea were happening on the day and were a joy to look through after! Very happy with his work and recommend him thoroughly!

Thomas did our wedding photos in August he was amazing from first meeting him to our final photos! Thomas was friendly and really got involved with all our guests. All our guests mentioned to us after our wedding how friendly he was. We are really impressed and love our wedding photos and highly recommend him! If we ever needed a photographer again we would 100% use him. Thank you again Thomas we couldn’t have asked for anyone better to be our wedding photographer! We can’t wait for our photo book!

We would recommend Thomas to everyone! He he is a lovely guy who couldn’t be more helpful throughout the whole of our wedding day. Our guests commented on how nice he was and what a laugh he was. We couldn’t be happier with our engagement photos and wedding photos. Thanks again Thomas you are amazing at what you do!

We met Thomas at Stockport Town Hall wedding fair and he had us at hello. We loved his energy and his portfolio really wowed us. On the wedding day he was an absolute joy to work with and felt like one of the family. He even managed to keep my mother-in-law entertained. The day wouldn't have been the same without him. We've received our photos and we are absolutely thrilled to bits with how they turned out. He turned our vision into reality. Really would highly recommend contacting Thomas to capture your special day.

Thomas was the best photographer we could have hoped for and the results are amazing. A set of photograpghs to treasure that really capture the whole essense of the day from start to finish. With lots of young children attending our wedding, including our own 4 and 2 yo who were a big part of the day we needed a photographer who was relaxed around kids and Thomas was just that. He was very patient on the day when our youngest was feeling overwhelmed and took the time to make sure we still got the shots we wanted. I can't recommend highly enough.
