Mick Cookson Photography

Beautiful, natural wedding photography

With a degree in photography, plus a 20 year background in making TV commercials I bring a unique, film-like look to your wedding. Most of my clients don’t like being photographed, being the centre of attention or posing for that ‘award-winning shot’. My experience of dealing with people shines through my work. You’ll love your wedding collection…and happy in the fact that having me photograph your wedding is both painless and fun.
Around 90%+ of all the work on my website is live and unstaged. Why not drop in and see for yourself?
 
 

How would you describe your style?

Natural, documentary story telling with a hint of tradition. I only shoot images which will stand the test of time. Sorry - NO gimmicky filters, fads or silly props you may grow to regret in years to come. Not on my shoots... ;-)

What do you love about weddings?

Each wedding is different, with it's own set of creative and logistical challenges. I love working with people and though I am very quiet on the day, do blend in very well, becoming that 'extra family member'. I love watching the stories unfold from preparations to the packed dancefloor.

What advice would you give to couples looking for their perfect wedding photographer?

Research your wedding photographer that you want. Don't be swayed by blogs and magazines into 'must haves' for your wedding day/photography. Be yourselves, and stick to what YOU want.... and your budget. When meeting your photographer(s), ask to see 3 or 4 full weddings, (ideally something from your chosen venue too), not just a 'greatest hits' album...

What's your travel policy?

I cover UK weddings only...too busy for destination, sorry.
