Mark Elliott Photography

I specialise in wedding photography from my base in Biddulph, creating natural & relaxed images that let you relive your day. My documentary style means I’m looking for the moments that happen without posing—the laughter, the quiet glances, the small details that tell the story of your wedding. I work to be unobtrusive and attentive so you, your family and your guests can enjoy the day while I capture it. Why choose me? I bring a calm, reassuring presence to busy wedding days. I combine a relaxed approach with an eye for authentic emotion and composition so every gallery feels personal and true to you. I use professional backup kit and a practice of careful preparation to make sure nothing is missed, and I’m fully insured so you can feel confident in my care. How I work with couples: I prioritise getting to know you before the wedding—whether that’s over a face-to-face meeting or via Zoom—so we can plan the flow of the day and I can understand the moments you value most. On the day I aim to blend into the background, working quietly to document genuine interactions, stepping in only when gentle direction will help create memorable portraits. After the wedding I deliver your images in a personalised online gallery and offer handcrafted products that make your memories tangible. My approach is driven by a love for real moments and the privilege of being invited into people’s celebrations. I’m passionate about producing photos that feel timeless and honest, not over-directed. If you value a photographer who will capture your wedding with care, warmth and a documentary eye, I’d love to talk about your plans. I’m based in Biddulph and photograph weddings across Staffordshire and beyond—get in touch to discuss your day and how I can help you remember it for years to come.
