Emily Ruth Photography is a specialist wedding photographer based in Failsworth, Greater Manchester, with over 15 years’ experience capturing weddings and celebrations across the region. Emily’s work is rooted in a natural, documentary approach: she looks for the honest, unscripted moments that tell the real story of your day, while guiding you gently through the important family and group images so nothing is missed. Why choose Emily? Clients praise her warm, approachable manner and exceptional people skills — traits that put couples, families and guests at ease and allow genuine emotion to shine through. Emily combines an artistic eye with reliable professionalism: from pre-wedding consultations to the final delivery of images, she focuses on understanding what matters most to each couple so the finished gallery feels personal and complete. Many couples receive their full wedding collection on a USB presented in a handcrafted box, a thoughtful finish that keeps your memories safe and ready to relive. What makes her approach special is a balance between observation and direction. Emily stays unobtrusive during ceremonies and candid moments, capturing smiles, laughter and the small details that make each wedding unique. When needed she steps in confidently to organise family portraits or creative couple shots, ensuring a calm, relaxed atmosphere and a smooth timeline. Her experience working with people of all ages — including extensive work with children in nurseries and schools — means she knows how to get the best from little ones and guests alike. How Emily works: every booking begins with a conversation to discuss your plans, preferred style and any must-have shots. On the day she blends into the flow of events, snapping natural reportage images and selecting flattering settings for posed photos. After the wedding, Emily carefully edits and curates your gallery so it reads like the story of the day. While weddings are her primary focus, Emily also photographs events and hospitality work and offers video/cine tape digitisation services — available as complementary options for couples who want additional ways to preserve memories. Above all, Emily is driven by a genuine love of people and storytelling; she takes pride in delivering professional, heartfelt wedding photography that helps couples relive the joy and emotion of their day for years to come.
