Andy Sidders Photography Full Description
Hi, I'm Andy, a wedding photographer based in Buckinghamshire. I specialise in documentary-style photography, which means that I focus on capturing candid and natural moments as they happen throughout your special day. I believe that the most beautiful and meaningful images come from allowing events to unfold naturally, rather than posing or staging them. One of my favourite parts of the wedding day to photograph is the hugs of congratulations that take place immediately after the ceremony. These moments are filled with so much emotion and joy, and I love being able to capture the love and excitement that is shared between the newlyweds and their loved ones. In addition to capturing all of the candid moments throughout the day, I also love creating beautiful, natural couple portraits. I want you to look and feel like yourselves in your wedding photos, so I'll help you to feel relaxed and comfortable in front of the camera. I understand that your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life, and I'm dedicated to capturing all of the special moments that make it unique. I'll be there to document all the little details and the big moments, so that you can relive your special day for years to come. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or if you're interested in booking me as your wedding photographer. I'd be more than happy to chat with you about your plans and discuss how I can help to capture all the memories of your special day.

Our star supplier
Andy was an absolute gem on our wedding day! His photos were not only absolutely stunning, but he also took over parts of the event management (without us asking - we are pretty sure he was the only supplier who read our incredibly detailed instructions for the day). Definitely the best choice of a photographer - we couldn't recommend him more!

Great Pre-Wedding Shoot
My fiancée and I had a pre-wedding shoot with Andy a couple of weeks ago. The photos he took were amazing - he came prepared with a lot of top-spec gear to make sure he was prepared for all types of photos, and they came out stunning. He is very friendly and has some very good ‘games’ and techniques to get naturally smiley and fun photos. The turn-around time on getting us 160 photos was also very quick. Including editing them, it was no longer than a week. We’ve definitely picked the right photographer for our wedding!

Amazing photos
I would 100% recommend Andy. He was absolutely fantastic not only on our wedding day at Aldwickbury Park with our amazing photos, but also in the run up. We had to reschedule our wedding several times due to Covid19 and he was so understanding and supportive which was invaluable. I am really happy with our photos and he managed to capture some perfect moments as well as some really artistic photos. Definitely go with him as your wedding photographer!

He was fantastic!
Andy was our wedding photographer when we got married back in July and he was fantastic! We would highly recommend to all couples – he was so friendly and easy to get on with. He also went above and beyond photographing all parts of our day, from getting ready all the way through to sparklers just before we left. All our guests commented how energetic he was, running around to get all the shots. The photographs we got were amazing and we had a sneak peek of the pictures from Andy whilst we were

Lovely reportage shots of us and our guests
Can't recommend Andy highly enough. From arriving while we were getting ready and throughout the rest of our day, he put us at ease and guided us to ensure we got the photos we wanted. He knew our venue - Pendley Manor - so could recommend locations within the grounds and house, he captured lovely reportage shots of us and our guests as well as the formal group pictures we'd listed, and even captured the small details - flowers, favours - that we didn't know we wanted until we looked through the

Every part of our day was captured perfectly!
We used Andy as our wedding photographer and we couldn’t have found anyone better! Andy was really helpful with the process leading up to the wedding. He was amazing on the wedding day, taking us away for moments on our own and getting great shots of guests too. Every part of our day was captured perfectly and looking back through the photos really is like reliving the moment. I really couldn’t recommend anyone more! Thank you so much!

Amazing from start to finish
Andy was absolutely fantastic. The photos he took on the day are amazing. He was never intrusive, most of the time you didn't know he was there. Our guests and venue had nothing but praise for him. We can't recommend Andy enough.

Thanks Matt & Louise! I loved photographing your wedding at Hawkwell House! :)

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

My most memorable wedding was Cat & Ed's wedding at Broadhaven Bay in Belmullet County Mayo. It was my first destination wedding and first opportunity to use a beach for wedding photos!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, Documentary, Candid, Unobtrusive, Creative

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm proud of the amazing moments I have captured for 100+ happy couples.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

I advise my couples not to plan too many formal group shots. Formal group shots can take up to 5 mins per group as it always takes time to gather wedding guests for the photos. I recommend limiting the group shot list to around 10 groups max.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

My favourite personal touch at a wedding was a wedding cake which truly represented the couple - it was a stunning cake featuring elements of Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones in the design.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I normally arrange a meeting or a Zoom consultation to discuss you wedding plans and talk you through my wedding packages and range of wedding albums. Following this if the couple would like to make a booking I require a £300 deposit and a contract to be signed and returned. Some of my wedding packages come with a pre-wedding shoot. This is organised midweek Mon-Thurs closer to the time of the wedding and allows me to get to know the couple so that they can be as relaxed as possible on the wedding day itself - resulting in beautiful, natural wedding photos. After the wedding you will receive your photos in an online gallery typically 4-6 weeks after the wedding day.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

The majority of my work is documentary style photography however I would still recommend time is taken on a few portraits with the couple. I aim to keep these as fun and natural as possible.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

The most original photo is probably a shot from Fran and Malc's Game of Thrones themed wedding. I almost always take a group shot of my couple with all their guests. Fran and Malc's wedding was slightly unique as Malc was wielding a sword and holding it aloft for the photo!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

You can still get stunning wedding photos on a wet day. A white umbrella for the bride and rainbow coloured umbrellas for bridesmaids can look fab!

Describe how you got into photography.

I was a self-employed web designer and wanted to offer an extra service, so I learned photography. I soon started photographing weddings, sporting events, and gigs and haven't looked back!
