Staffordshire wedding photographers

Sam & Louise Photography are Staffordshire wedding photographers and a husband and wife wedding photography team in the Midlands.

We have been photographing weddings together since 2011, capturing all the unique and beautiful moments that will ultimately be pieced together to tell the story of your day. We are incredibly fortunate to have had our photography work recognised both nationally and internationally, picking up awards from organisations such as Fearless Photographers, My Wed and The Wedding industry awards. Our work has been featured by the likes of The Times, Huffington Post, Rock n Roll bride magazine and more. If you’re getting married and are looking for a wedding photographer in Staffordshire who is relaxed and captures real and unposed moments, we can help!

Our wedding photography is colourful, creative and fun. Our main goal on the day is to make sure you enjoy it without fear of a looming wedding photographer ready to whisk you away. We prefer to capture authentic moments as they really happen. We want you to look back on your wedding photos and be able to relive moments, not fake them. We blend into the day seamlessly, becoming part of the furniture. Loads of our couples say it was like having an old friend with them at the wedding- read our reviews to find out more.

Why book husband and wife wedding photographers in the Midlands?

There are lots of reasons why you might consider booking a husband and wife wedding photography team to photograph your wedding. You may have asked yourselves “Do I need 2 photographers to shoot my wedding?” It’s something to consider if you want both sides of the morning preparations covered for example, or both angles of your wedding ceremony. When you book wedding photographers in Staffordshire though, or anywhere else for that matter it’s important that your photographers work matches the vision your have for your photos. Quality, over quantity!

Never base your decision on recommendations alone- it’s essential that you love the photographs that your wedding photographer takes. Having two wedding photographers shoot your day means that you’ll have two perspectives and two pairs of eyes, in two places at once. Try as they might, even the best photographers in the world cannot be in 2 places at once. This means that whilst one of us is shooting one thing, the other can be off doing something else. This often means your timings will flow better and things will be far more relaxed.

No! Although we are Staffordshire wedding photographers in the sense that Uttoxeter (Staffordshire) is where we call home, we frequently travel all over the place for weddings. We are originally from down south, so we have strong roots in other parts of the country too. Even after relocating, we are still recommended at several wedding venues near where we used to live, which is a huge compliment! With that said, we are environmentally conscious so love to work close to home whenever we can.

Being based in Uttoxeter means we are ideally situated to cover weddings in Staffordshire, weddings in Stoke on Trent, weddings in Derby, Weddings in Nottingham, Weddings in Northampton, weddings in Warwickshire and weddings in the Midlands. Weddings in the West Midlands in particular are easily covered.

There are a number of wedding venues that we are proud to be recommended at and many others which we look forward to working at such as Hanbury Wedding Barn, Foxtail Barns, Weston Hall, The Ashes barns, The Venue at Gayton, Sandhole oak Barn, Heaton House farm, Grangefields, Cripps and co, Donington Park Farmhouse, The west mill, Royle Forest weddings, Stretton Manor barn, The pumping house, Goosedale, Hazel gap barn, Stubton Hall, Oaktree farm, The walled garden at Beeston, Dunstall barn, The Pheasantry brewery, Park Farm weddings, The Meadow Barn, Bredenbury court barns, Sheepy Meadows, Jephsons glasshouse, Hothorpe Hall, Greenacres woodland weddings, fivefourstudios and more!

Some wedding venues in the midlands where we have already worked or are booked at are
Dodford manor, Hoar Cross Hall, Norwood park, Swallows nest barn, Dodmoor house and more!

You can find some weddings at these wedding venues on our blog.

How much does a wedding photographer in Staffordshire cost?

When you book Staffordshire wedding photographers, you’re not buying a product in the same way as you’d buy something in the supermarket. When you choose a wedding photographer it should never be about the quantity of stuff that you get, but the quality of the final product. You should always invest in the very best quality photos that you can afford, from a photographer who delivers excellent customer service. Not only will it make your wedding planning journey plain sailing and stress free, but you can always buy physical products such as wedding albums, wedding USBs and so on at a later date. You can even book an engagement shoot at a later date, or even before you book the photographer for your wedding to see if you’re a good fit. There are some beautiful engagement shoot locations in the midlands! 

You can find a guid to our rates on our pricing page. We offer a one photographer and a two photographer service. Our most popular option is our two photographer service as the majority of our engaged couples like our ability to deliver full and rounded coverage with no detail or moment overlooked.
