“It’s all about the story” “Very Creative” “A Unique Vision of true happiness”

Paul Hands Weddings Film 2024

As a creative wedding photographer and I have developed a unique vision that brings out the best in people using a style that I’ve created over the past 12 years of shooting professional wedding photography.

I will naturally blend in to your wedding without being overly intrusive and can equally get in close to photograph you and your guests with perfect timing and stunning compositions that reveal so many mini stories throughout your wedding day.

My work will make you wet yourself with laughter, wet your eyes with happiness and warm your hearts beautifully!

The odd one might shock you though…

If you can’t control your guests, what chance have I got?!


RELAXED

Everyone who works with me tells me how calm and relaxing it is and how much they love my energy. I’ll work very hard on your wedding day but in a relaxed way and the proof will be in your photographs and films.

FUN

I think I’m a bit of a comedian and love to seek that same level of humour in everyday situations. Your photographs will reflect the fun side to your wedding and you’ll see just how much everyone enjoyed your special day.

LOVE

I’m a romantic at heart and will look for ways to show your love visually and in gentle ways that are classy, sometimes cheesy and always fun, bringing a smile with happiness back to your memories each time you look at them.


You’re invited to come to meet me at my studio in Burbage, Leicestershire, where you can view my full portfolio, see a full wedding and the quality of my wedding albums.

Also we can have a cuppa and chat about your wedding day, where we can share ideas for creating the best story.

We can then discuss your wedding day and I can design a bespoke proposal for you.

Watch these two review films, they’re brilliant!

Reviews:

Paul was our wedding photographer and we couldn’t have been happier with his work. From the moment he arrived at our house to the end of the first dance, he couldn’t have been more professional. He was discreet, I barely noticed he was there most of the day, yet captured such intimate memories of our special day for us to cherish forever. The finished photographs are first class and there is absolutely nothing else that we would have wanted. He captured everything, our whole wedding day, as it happened, from start to finish. Including a few traditional posed family shots (to keep the relatives happy) and some beautiful artistic and abstract scenes. He captured the joy and laughter throughout the day, on the faces of the adults and children alike. These are photo’s we are going to be looking at and loving for a lifetime. Thank you Paul, you are a superstar!
— Julie and Lee Price
Paul took our wedding photos and they turned out amazing he captured the day perfectly and when we collected the photos they came in a lovely little wooden box with some printed off and rest on a love heart USB with the date of our wedding on it was such a lovely touch.
— Rebecca and Andy Fenlon
It was important to us that our wedding photography captured us as people and our story. We didn’t want the cliche posed photos that we’ve seen (beautifully) replicated so many time before. We went to Paul as we’d seen his work and were confident in his talents. He just blended in on the day, capturing moments and working his magic. The finished product far surpassed our expectations. We couldn’t recommend him more. Thank you for capturing our story.
