Wedding Photographer in Darlington & the North East

Your wedding day — a time when love takes center stage and fleeting moments are captured forever. It’s a day I’m truly honoured to be part of, stepping behind the lens as your storyteller to document the real, the raw, and the beautifully unscripted moments that make your celebration uniquely yours.

Together, let’s embark on this incredible journey to capture the heart of your love story — creating images that are honest, emotional, and filled with timeless joy.

Hi, I’m Gary,

 a wedding photographer based in Darlington, capturing weddings across the North East and North Yorkshire. I’m the guy behind the camera, ready to document one of the most important days of your life in a way that feels natural, relaxed, and completely you.

My style is all about documentary wedding photography — no cheesy poses or forced smiles. Instead, I focus on real moments: genuine laughter, emotional glances, and the little interactions that make your wedding day unique. By working quietly in the background, I’m able to tell your story as it naturally unfolds, creating honest, heartfelt wedding photographs you’ll treasure for years to come.

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Darlington or the North East who keeps things fun, relaxed, and stress-free, I’d love to be part of your day and capture all the beautiful emotions that make it unforgettable.
