Hey; I’m Adam.

I live in the heart of the Potteries with Cera my wife and our miniature dachshund, Juno.

I love people and the stories which make them.

When I realised I could be any kind of wedding photographer I wanted to be I simply chose to be the person I would want at my wedding. Someone who deeply cared about every person he met.

Following a huge moment in my life, time is now something I really care about and spending it wisely is very important to me. So if I can help it I don’t really want you to miss a thing on your wedding day and would love you to remember as much as possible.

My family means the world to me and I spend most of my non-wedding related time with them.

Other than that I’m a huge cinema fan and watch as much of it as possible whilst also building my forever-changing top FIFTY movie list. I also love music and attend as many live shows as possible.

In a nutshell, that’s me. If you prefer video vibes then watch this.

A Love Story

As a teenager, I spent many hours watching romantic cinema including Garden State, Lost in Translation, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Cinema Paradiso to name a few. Although my mind has been heavily corrupted by the amount of Zach Braff I have endured, I have always been a hopeless romantic at heart.

In a somewhat impromptu moment, I decided to drive almost 2 hours to meet a girl I hardly knew. Several incredible and testing years later we now share a miniature dachshund (sausage dog) and a home together.

As well as having our own interests, we share a common love for Disney/Pixar and theatre.

She said “yes” in early 2019 and after a battle with Covid postponements, we were able to finally marry in 2021. We now have a child together, finally completing our little family.

Life As A Wedding Photographer

The Journey So Far

People often ask how I ended up doing such an incredible job. The truth is, I made a lot of blind choices over years that led me here.

For my 9th birthday, I received my first point-and-shoot camera. Years later, I spent much of my time photographing the skateboarding and music scenes, with every shoot teaching me something new.

In 2009, I had the amazing opportunity to spend a summer in the USA working as a sports photographer at a sleepaway camp. In just 10 weeks, I learnt more about myself and photography than I had in the previous 10 years.

The following year, my first wedding enquiry came from my sister and now brother-in-law. The photographs were a success, and I quickly became hooked on the fast-paced nature of wedding photography.

For years, I photographed weddings alongside a part-time job before taking the plunge and going full-time in 2018. The business quickly took off and has continued to grow every year, leading to invitations to speak at some of the UK’s leading conferences and workshops, as well as hosting my own.

I still adore photography, but it’s the freedom it gives me in life that I love most.

I LOVE STOKE

Educating the Next Generation

I really struggled to find my place in education. My over-the-top excitable personality was often squashed and forced to fit into academic cookie-cutters. After a long road, I finally found my direction to where I am now.

Knowing how much I struggled I wanted to inspire the next generation of neuro-divergent youth who also struggle with the same academic cookie-cutter being forced on them. Over the last few years, I’ve been to many schools to deliver alternative career talks and photography workshops. I work with any school and any budget to ensure students have positive role models in the arts.
