Hannah & Fergus’ Wedding at The Midland Hotel, Manchester

The Midland exudes elegance — an iconic masterpiece in the heart of the city, boasting grand rooms and detailed craftsmanship that provide the perfect setting for high-end imagery, natural candids, and stunning portraits.

Location-wise, I’m spoiled for choice working as a Manchester wedding photographer at The Midland. It’s an ideal venue where I can emphasise my natural, candid style throughout the day, combined with a collection of breathtaking portraits in and around St Peter’s Square. For a luxurious wedding filled with sophistication and style, The Midland Hotel Manchester is a venue hard to beat.

In the evening, you can celebrate freely, barely noticing that I’m there, while I capture all the fun, laughter, and energy on the dance floor.

“Fantastic Photographer, such a great day!”

We originally booked Paul for July 2020 but had to postpone the date to July 2021 due to the pandemic. We had a call with Paul 2 weeks before the wedding and he gave us some good advice/tips for the big day. On the day Paul was punctual, professional and did us a great service. Paul really works hard and strives for the best shots constantly, I don’t think I saw Paul sit down once during the whole 10 hours! Paul got some great shots outside the church, in the stair well of the Midland Hotel and across St Peters Square, also all the group shots turned out really well too. Paul was really friendly with all guests and possessed good communication skills for getting the group shots together. We and our guests are really happy with the quality of our wedding photos and would definitely recommend Paul.
