Fitzpatrick Photography

If you value emotive, honest wedding photography from a team who are genuinely as invested in your day as you are, meet The Fitzpatricks — Mat & Julia. Based near Ashton in Makerfield and working across Cheshire, Manchester and beyond, we specialise in storytelling wedding photography that blends documentary truth with considered, modern portraits. Why choose us? Over a decade of photographing weddings has taught us that the best images come when couples feel calm, present and themselves. Our style is Romantic, Authentic & Modern Story Telling: we look for real moments — the little glances, the unscripted laughter, the tearful speeches — and place them in the context of your day so every photograph reads as part of a single narrative. How we work with you: it begins with a conversation. We take time to understand what matters most to you, and then plan around those moments. We deliberately limit the number of couples we photograph each year so you receive an attentive, personal service — from our planning consults to the delivery of your finished images. On the day we blend unobtrusive documentary coverage with gentle, natural direction for portraits so you get beautiful, timeless photographs without feeling over‑posed. Engagement shoots: many couples find an engagement session invaluable. It’s a relaxed way to get used to being photographed, to explore locations around Ashton in Makerfield or Liverpool, and to build the rapport that makes your wedding day photography flow naturally. Heirloom work: beyond files and galleries we care deeply about how your story is preserved. We design and handcraft wedding albums as a central part of our service — physical, tactile keepsakes that bring your day back to life for generations. Our approach is personal, experienced and creatively curious. We’re storytellers at heart — driven by travel, documentary practice and a love of beautiful, honest imagery. If you want a wedding photographer who will capture the essence of your day with warmth, creativity and integrity, we’d love to hear your story and see if we’re the right fit.
