Cheshire Wedding Photographer

Hi, I’m Gareth — the photographer behind Gareth Roy Photography.

I’m a Cheshire wedding photographer specialising in natural, relaxed wedding photography across Cheshire, Manchester and the North West. My approach is simple: capture real moments as they happen, without awkward posing or forced smiles.

Your wedding isn’t a photoshoot — it’s a story. I focus on genuine emotion, natural light and the atmosphere of your day to create timeless images that feel honest and effortless.

I regularly photograph weddings at venues across Cheshire, from country estates and manor houses to rustic barns. Knowing how to work with each space and its light allows me to capture your day beautifully, whatever the setting.

Couples often tell me they felt completely at ease in front of the camera — that’s always my goal. A relaxed experience leads to natural photographs you’ll love for years to come.

If you're looking for a Cheshire wedding photographer who offers documentary-style coverage with a calm, friendly approach, I’d love to hear about your plans.

Drone Wedding Photography

Take your wedding photography to new heights with stunning drone photography and cinematic aerial video. As a Cheshire wedding photographer, I capture breathtaking aerial views of your wedding venue, grounds and celebrations, adding a unique perspective to your wedding story.

From sweeping establishing shots of luxury wedding venues across Cheshire, the North West, Lake District and beyond, to cinematic footage of your day, drone photography and video can beautifully showcase the setting and atmosphere of your wedding. 

Drone coverage is available as part of my wedding photography packages, weather and venue permissions permitting, creating striking aerial photographs and cinematic wedding films that you’ll want to remember for years to come.

Engagement Photography in Cheshire & the North West

An engagement shoot is the perfect opportunity to capture the two of you together before your wedding day, while also getting comfortable in front of the camera. As a Cheshire wedding photographer, I offer relaxed and natural engagement photography across Cheshire, the North West and beyond, creating timeless images in locations that feel personal to you.

Whether you choose a favourite countryside walk, a beautiful outdoor location, your wedding venue or somewhere with special meaning, I’ll keep things relaxed and natural, with gentle direction when needed.

Your pre-wedding photography session is also a great way to experience how I work, so when your wedding day arrives, having your photographs taken feels natural, relaxed and completely unforced.
