FLASH SALE - Save 21% for our 1 Year Birthday!
Eleven years in and the nerves never go. That's the bit I love about weddings, they're never the same twice.
I'm Josh, the one-man band behind 21 Photography, working out of Chesterfield and covering weddings across Derbyshire and beyond. No second shooter faff, no studio team trailing you round the church. Just me, two Fujifilm bodies and a workflow built to make your day look like it actually felt: warm, a bit cinematic, properly real.
Some couples want me tucked in the corner catching things as they happen. Others want a proper set of portraits they'll want on the wall in ten years. Most want both, and that's exactly what you get.

21 Photography Is Fantastic
My husband and I renewed our vows in September 2025 in a small ceremony, and Josh was a fantastic photographer to accompany us as we made more memories with our family. We got so many beautiful shots, and Josh was very accommodating, suggesting poses and pictures we'd like to have. He also photographed everyone at the wedding in couples and groups, making everyone feel very relaxed and comfortable. A lovely guy, a fantastic photographer and someone who will make your wedding day run smoothly and with ease.

Josh was amazing
Josh was everything we could have hoped for in a wedding photographer and more. From the moment we met him, he made us feel completely at ease, and it was clear how passionate he is about what he does.
On our wedding day, Josh was the perfect presence, professional, friendly, and so easy to be around. He blended seamlessly into the day, capturing so many genuine moments without ever feeling intrusive. He also gave just the right amount of direction for our portraits, making us feel comfortable and ensuring everything looked natural.
When we received our photos, we were absolutely blown away. Every image is beautifully captured, and together they tell the story of our day perfectly. Josh didn’t just take photographs—he captured the emotions, laughter, happy tears, and all the little moments that made our wedding so special.
We honestly couldn’t be happier with the experience or the final photos. Josh is incredibly talented, a pleasure to work with, and someone we’d recommend without hesitation to any couple looking for an amazing wedding photographer. Thank you, Josh, for giving us memories we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives!

Josh
Lead Photographer
Eyup! I'm Josh - Owner & Lead photographer of 21 Photography.
I am following a very similar path to you in that I am getting married in September 2027! Navigating the minefield that is planning a wedding is crazy and I'm here to make it one little bit easier.
- Who actually are you?
- I'm originally from Leeds and lived there for over 25ish years. Still got the accent thankfully! I come solidly from an Arts background and have played music most of my life. If you happen to jump on a call at all with me you'll see a collection of guitars as my backdrop!
- I've been with my beautiful fiancee for just under 10 years and she's my biggest supporter and also my head of marketing. I couldn't do what I do without her!
- Why do you shoot weddings?
- Honestly? I absolutely adore what I do. To be able to spend a day with 2 people who are just surrounded by love brings me so much joy and that's why I do it! Plus my fiancee loves to see everyone's dresses after!
