North West Wedding Photographer
Award-winning wedding phototgraphy for Lancashire, the Lake District, and Cheshire
Hi, Paul here, a ‘Northwest Wedding Photographer‘ ideally based for weddings in Lancashire, Cumbria, Cheshire, and Greater Manchester.
Melanie and Darren
There are a million wedding photographers in the world, but Paul is most definitely one in a million.
Emma and Mark’s very kind review
If, like many people, you don’t feel comfortable in front of the camera, or even if you do, you are in the right place. My love of weddings is to capture them naturally, as they happen, so that you can relax and enjoy your day with your guests. Whilst you’re having fun, I’ll create images for you that are authentic, show your personalities, and capture all the special moments that make up your wedding day, so that you can look back and smile at them for years to come.

How does it all work?
1. Get in touch
There are loads of ways to get in touch from good ol’ email, contact forms throughout my website, Whatsapp, and something called a phone – use what works for you.
2. BOOKING MADE EASY
We book a date and time to chat, usually online via Zoom (don’t worry, we can do it in person if you prefer).
Once you’re happy and ready to confirm, the boring bits like contracts and invoicing can be done really quickly and all online.
3 PLANNING & GUIDANCE
Calm your nerves when we review your plans with a pre-wedding consultation.
From ensuring that you won’t miss an important image to making sure that your timeline allows you to enjoy the day without feeling rushed.
You will feel confident that you are in capable hands and that I will capture your special day beautifully…
4 Your Special Day!!!

I know everyone will say that their wedding photographer is the best…. but they would be liars!
Paul could not have done anything more to make me and Alex feel comfortable throughout our day, even personally taking us down to the Lake in his car. Some of the shots he created for us must of had some kind of magic in them because you wouldn’t have known he was there😂 perfectly candid photos that really captured the feelings we shared all day. It’s not that often we actually take a photo we like, but there isn’t a photo from Paul’s collection that we can fault!
They say the Devil works fast but Paul definitely works faster. Having a slideshow of photos from the day so far during the evening reception was something not only we had never seen before but many of our guests commented on. We had a few amazing photos within 2 days and a sneak peek of 20+ photos within less than a week, date night and all of our photos in less than 2 weeks.😊
Well done my friend I hope you are very successful throughout your career you definitely deserve it!
Top bloke and a very good photographer
What can I say about Paul? He’s just amazing. From the get-go he puts you and all of your guests at ease with his relaxed and artistic style.
He is such a professional and his eye captures the story you are trying to tell. He has you laughing and at times I did think ‘you want me where’ but then I received our pictures, and I was blown away.
He absolutely knows what he is doing but also does it in a way where sometimes you don’t even know he is there! We can’t thank him enough for all he did on our special day, and he has left us with memories that will last a lifetime.
Everyone needs a Paul Swift in their lives!!
Thanks again Paul 😘
