Ash Groom Wedding Photography

I’m Ash — a Yorkshire wedding specialist based in Kippax who loves telling real wedding stories through a documentary lens. Having turned a lifelong passion for photography into an award-winning career, I focus on capturing the honest, unscripted moments that make your day uniquely yours. My approach is laid-back and unobtrusive: I blend in with your guests so you can stay present, enjoy the day, and trust that the moments will be captured naturally. What sets my wedding photography apart is a combination of documentary intuition and creative use of venue landscapes. If your venue has a striking backdrop, I’ll quietly weave it into your story — those dramatic skies, historic architecture or sweeping countryside shots add emotional scale to a relaxed, authentic gallery. Couples tell me they love how I balance candid moments with a small handful of calm, natural portraits so they don’t feel posed or rushed. Working with me is simple and personal. I start with a proper conversation — phone, video or a coffee if you’re local — to understand the mood you want, any key people or moments to prioritise, and how you want to feel when you look back at your photos. On the day I’m a calm presence: observant, ready, and always searching for the honest reactions and small details that tell your story. After the wedding I carefully edit images to enhance the emotion and atmosphere, delivering a gallery that feels like your day all over again. Though weddings are my primary focus and passion, I also cover occasional family sessions and events and can provide pre-wedding (engagement) shoots as an add-on. I’m proud to have been featured and recognised for my work, and I love travelling across the UK to photograph celebrations — whether it’s an intimate registry office ceremony or a full-day country manor wedding. If you’re after a specialist wedding photographer in Kippax who values authenticity, a relaxed atmosphere and creative storytelling, let’s chat. I’ll listen to what you want from your photos and promise to capture your day with care, style and a keen eye for the moments that matter.
