Untraditional wedding photography for those who have heart

Hey, I’m Rob!

I don’t take life too seriously & I absolutely don’t do traditional or conventional. I love to work with couples who have sick ideas & unique ways of celebrating their love stories.

I’ll scope out the venue for the coolest backdrops, bring out your personalities with some interesting photo prompts & most importantly, I’ll have fun with you!

My aim is to put you at ease & create an epic wedding album for your mates to be a little bit jealous of.

There are few spaces quite as awe-inspiring as Rochdale Town Hall. As soon as vendors and guests alike stepped through the doors, you could see it on their faces — that sense of wonder as they took in the high ceilings, intricate gothic architecture, and sweeping staircase. It was the perfect backdrop for a celebration of love, creativity, and everything gloriously alternative.
