Photographing weddings at Stockport Town Hall
Heritage venues challenge a photographer in a good way — the lighting is rarely ‘wedding-optimised’, so I work with available light and the existing architecture to bring out what makes the space unique. Smaller civic ceremonies often run on tighter schedules, so I plan the must-have shots in advance with the couple.
