Hi! I’m Wes Simpson,
When I’m photographing a wedding. I feel like I have a purpose. I feel like I’m contributing to this planet and doing good in the world. Especially when I’m capturing natural, authentic moments.
What I wanted to do when I started out, was make people happy. To be of service, to provide value, and give them something that they will equally be as proud of.
But then wedding photography turned into something so much better for me. I got to travel, meet amazing people and positively contribute to their lives in a meaningful way.
I hope my pictures make you happy. I hope to inspire you to make others happy, to do good in the world, and to feel like you have a purpose.
More importantly, I hope I inspire you to be yourself. Your true authentic self. By opening your mind and your heart you’re going to be a little more compassionate and compassion is what makes the world a better place.
My Background –
While working successfully in the television industry as a cameraman on TV shows for the BBC and Channel 4, I found myself looking through my parents’ wedding album.
Although the photographs were technically sound (despite my father’s moustache and flairs), the connection between loved ones and the little legendary stories that I’d come to associate with their wedding were missing.
So, over a decade ago, I decided to pursue wedding photography. I wanted to challenge the status quo and share my knowledge and insights to help couples capture authentic, meaningful, and powerful wedding photos.
Due to my by documentary approach, similar to how your favourite TV show is filmed, “like a fly-on-the-wall, as though the camera isn’t there.” I am able to capture natural photos without interfering with your day.
I’m honoured to say that over the last 15 years, I’ve photographed more than 400+ weddings in over ten countries. And I still have as much fun doing it now as I did when I first started.
Travelling the world and being surrounded by love and happiness is an incredible adventure. I’ve made friends, won awards and photographed celebrity weddings, and music icons. Hello! Magazine even featured me as one of the 50 most memorable celebrity weddings of the decade.
Based in Liverpool and Lancashire, I cover weddings in London, the rest of the UK, and destination weddings all over the world. There is no limit to where I will travel to tell your story.
