Becky Ryan Photography

Hey! So I'm Becky, and I'm an alternative wedding photographer and illustrator based in Derbyshire (shooting weddings across the UK and beyond!). What do I mean by 'alternative'? Basically I am not a 'traditional' or formal photographer. There was a time when wedding photographs were generally lined up formal family shots, and generally only consisting of images of people looking directly into the camera. I don't work to this tradition as I want to capture weddings naturally as they unfold and tell the story of each of my couples' unique days. I won’t boss you about or dictate how things need to go, and I specialise in shooting weddings for couples that want to do things that little bit differently. I’m not a photographer that would choose to take endless posed shots, I prefer to capture the natural moments of your day as they happen and tell it as a story from start to finish. I see the beauty in and enjoy capturing the little things, sometimes simple ordinary moments that play a part in your day just as much as the others. The little things that just make you guys you. It’s looking back through shots such as these that really put you back in that time and place to me and convey personalities, not the images created when you’re made aware of the photographers presence. I’m a naturally introverted person so a documentary style of photography is right up my street. As a result my style of photography is informal, unobtrusive, fun, romantic, natural, and creative, and with a limited amount of set shots/posed group images.
