Owen Billcliffe Wedding Photography Full Description
As your photographer I'm there to help you create an everlasting memento of how it felt to be part of your celebrations. Whatever kind of wedding you’re planning, from a big church ceremony to an intimate garden party, I’ll take the same easy-going approach, fitting in around you to capture the heart and the soul of your whole day, just the way it happened. I just have one simple package: from prep before the ceremony, to an hour after your first dance, all for one price. Then if you want to add an album (most couples do - your photos just don't feel the same on a computer!) I've got plenty of options to choose from. (If you're planning a small wedding, for example at a register office, and only need a few hours please let me know when you get in touch.) When you get in touch via Bridebook I'll get back to you as soon as I can to arrange a good time for a quick chat on the phone, to find out a bit more about you and your plans so I can put together the perfect package for you. If you prefer email chats that's fine too!

He's a rare talent.

We were really worried about finding the right photographer for our wedding - neither of us particularly likes having our photo taken so we wanted someone who would be able to take natural, candid photographs of us that wouldn't make us feel too formal and stilted. Owen was recommended to us by a friend, and from our very first meeting with him, we knew that he understood exactly what we were after and we were absolutely thrilled when he agreed to work with us. He was calm, patient and full of helpful ideas at every turn, which made us feel completely relaxed and comfortable. On the day, he managed to blend in among the crowd so well that we barely even noticed he was there, and when the photos came back he had captured wonderful, intimate moments when we didn't even know we were being photographed. He prepared a beautiful online gallery for us as well as a stunning physical album that we will treasure forever. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Owen to anyone looking for a wedding photographer - he's a rare talent.

Some of the most beautiful shots I've ever seen.

We searched for a long time to find a photographer for our wedding who was focused on natural, documentary style photography. From the first phone call we had with Owen, we felt reassured that we were in safe hands and that he was going to capture every moment the way we envisaged it. He was very communicative and friendly in the lead up to the day, and at our wedding reception we barely noticed he was taking photos! But the photos he delivered to us were some of the most beautiful shots I've ever seen. He captured every special moment between our friends and family so perfectly. I don't especially like having my photo taken and often those photos you see of yourself that are 'unposed' are not always the most flattering, but somehow, in Owen's photos, I looked nice in all of them!

I can't rave about Owen enough!

I can't rave about Owen enough! If you're considering him for your big day, you will not be disappointed! My husband and I reached out to Owen a couple of months before our small wedding in December, just to enquire and to get an idea about his services. We actually hadn't enquired into many other photographers, but from our very first FaceTime call with him we both agreed we wanted him to photograph the wedding! He was continually attentive, flexible, professional and really made us feel at ease! He was fantastic on the day, all of our family and guests loved him, and of course most importantly, we have the most beautiful pictures of the day! We've made a stunning wall gallery with the photos in our home, and Owen also helped us to custom design our own wedding album. A lot of things didn't go to plan on the day, but the photography was not one of them! We will definitely be reaching out to Owen again in the future for any more special events! :)

Owen was an excellent choice of photographer for our wedding.

Owen was an excellent choice of photographer for our wedding. He is extremely talented and captured so many special moments for us that we had not necessarily seen on the day ourselves. He was always in the right place at the right time, but was so discrete we barely noticed him. He captured everything in a very natural, documentary style way which is exactly what we wanted. On top of this the whole service he provided from the initial meeting, right through to the delivery of the final album was perfect. Owen is very reassuring and you feel in safe hands throughout the whole process. He is very organised and punctual in his responses to all your questions, and even took the time to visit our church and venue beforehand to find the best angles for his shots. The final album he created for us is beautiful and will be treasured for many years to come. We wouldn’t hesitate to use him again in the future!

The results are first class

We were lucky to secure Owen to photo-document our wedding, and were highly impressed with the service and results. Owen offers a well designed service, including a friendly up-front consultation, expert planning and choreography for all photography aspects, and of course the execution, which is professional and personable throughout. The results are first class: a set of images which capture the warmth and ceremony of a great event for us, and which we'll treasure for a lifetime.

Both us and our guests love the pics!

My fiance and I hired Owen after reading boat loads of amazing reviews about him and his work. They're all true! He is an extreme professional, has a positive attitude and takes beautiful candid photos. Both us and our guests love the pics! Thanks again, Owen!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

The one where the Best Man let slip a few curse words in the speech, then apologised to all the children present, and the children shouted back "We don't mind! We like it!"...

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, intimate, personal, unobstrusive, stylish

What about your business are you most proud of?

How happy I can make people with something I made for them, from the photos themselves through to the albums that I know they'll treasure for decades to come. The smiles on their faces mean SO much.

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

Don't overthink it! And make choices that mean something to you, not anyone else in your family... ;)

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

Photos of the couple throughout their relationship together as 'name plates' at table settings.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

First we'll have a wee chat on the phone to get a few basic details, then we'll all meet up for a coffee (or something stronger) and really get to know each other, talk through the whole day, look at some albums together and work out what you'll need to get the most from your wedding photographs. Then we'll book it in! I'll put together a schedule of photography so we all know what's happening when, and all through the run-up to the big day I'll be on hand to answer questions. Then on the day, ideally you'll pretty much forget I'm there! Afterwards I'll spend a few weeks editing and processing, and when all the photos are ready you'll receive your very own private gallery and we'll start working on the design of your wedding album. You'll be able to make some tweaks until it's just right, and then it's sent off to be made by hand for you in Yorkshire.

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

I don't think there's any single photo every couple "should" take - as a documentary photographer I think the photos need to be about you and your party and the people around you, and those can be different every time!

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

An impromptu round of cricket right outside the church after the ceremony, with the bride bowling and the groom batting!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Lots of white golf umbrellas, forgetting about the weather, and focussing on each other!

Describe how you got into photography.

I love photos of people carried away in a moment - whether they're working, or daydreaming, or laughing, or crying, or gazing at their lover with doe-eyes, those photos have so much in them to get lost in. I came to London to build a career in TV and became a camera operator on shows like Sunday Brunch and Mel & Sue, but I always enjoyed bringing a camera to take pictures behind the scenes of people at work and relaxing, unaware the camera was on them so they were being themselves. I love those candid style of photos so much that I started to turn my focus towards family celebrations and weddings. That gave me a way to spend my life creating something people love, AND make a living doing it. I couldn't ask for anything more!
