Mike Garrard Photography

For me, the most important part of photography is to make you feel something when you look through your wedding photographs. The initial ‘wow’ factor is great, and something I work really hard on creating for every client. Sometimes though, some of the best images are growers — the pictures that come to mean more and more to you in years to come, and I have these shots in mind too when I’m shooting. I have huge enthusiasm for wedding photography, and you’ll always find me with a smile on my face when I’m working. I got married myself a couple of years ago, so I know how it feels to be both sides of the camera, which I think is a huge benefit in identifying with how you’re feeling on such a big day. I’ve always had a strong desire to document real life through photography, so I think this is why wedding photography has become my passion. The ability to provide people with a collection of amazing memories is a great gift, and I love being able to hand over a completed collection of images that encompass a truly amazing time in your life.
