Martin Bignell Photography

The words narrative and documentary best describe my approach to wedding photography in that I try to tell the story of your wedding day through pictures. Wherever possible I believe it's important to let a wedding unfold naturally by itself, with minimal intrusion on my part. There's a natural beauty, honesty, truth and emotion intrinsically at the heart of every wedding day and it's my passion to photograph it. That's not to say that I don't cover the formal side of the day with the portraits and groups - I certainly do - but first and foremost my coverage is about unobtrusive observation. I'm a professional spectator you hire to help you remember your day. I've been working as a full-time wedding photographer for over ten years and during that time I've covered all sorts of weddings both large and small throughout the UK and even a couple abroad. Each is unique, each with its own charming character. Weddings are one of the truly fundamental events in life and this elemental importance makes them absolutely fascinating to photograph.
