Highly recommend

What can I say. Alex and Daisy were just fantastic from start to finish. They listened and gave us everything we asked for and more. From the second they arrived, I knew I had made the right decision, they were professional and extremely approachable. They fitted into our relaxed and happy atmosphere perfectly. If you're lucky enough that Alex has your date free, dont hesitate, just go ahead and book. You will not regret it.
Thank you again, Alex and Daisy. I am so glad you were both part of our day. ☺️

Amazing wedding day photography

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. From start to finish, Alex was excellent.
Alex was so warm, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the whole day. His calm and organised approach made everything feel easy and stress free, which really helped us relax and enjoy every moment.
The quality of both the photos and videos is outstanding, we are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out. Alex truly captured the day perfectly, and we couldn’t have wished for anything better.
The photo booth was such a fun addition as well and went down really well with our guests, adding an extra special touch to the celebrations.
We’re so grateful for everything Alex did and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a talented and professional photographer.

Absolutely incredible from start to finish.

We booked the full photo and video package along with the Magic Mirror, and it was the best decision we made. Alex blended in so naturally throughout the day, capturing everything without us ever feeling posed or pressured.
The photos are stunning, the video made us cry (in the best way!), and the Magic Mirror was a huge hit with our guests. So many people commented on how friendly and professional Alex was.
If you want someone who genuinely cares about your day and captures it beautifully, book Alex — you won't regret it.

We couldn’t have asked for more.

From the very first message, Alex was friendly, professional and incredibly reassuring. Having photo, video and the Magic Mirror all provided by one trusted person made the whole process so easy and stress-free.
On the day, Alex blended in perfectly, capturing everything so naturally that nothing ever felt staged or awkward. The photos and video tell the story of our day beautifully – from the emotional moments to the fun and laughter we didn’t even realise were happening.
The Magic Mirror and phone was an absolute hit with our guests and kept everyone entertained all evening. We loved looking through the photos and messages afterwards – such a brilliant addition to the day.
So many of our guests commented on how lovely Alex was, and the final gallery and video completely exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares, is hugely experienced, and delivers beautiful, storytelling coverage – we couldn’t recommend Alex highly enough.

Alex was absolutely incredible from start to finish.

From our first conversation, Alex made us feel completely at ease. On the day itself, he was calm, friendly and blended in so naturally that half the time we forgot we were being photographed – which shows in the photos!
The images perfectly tell the story of our wedding day, capturing all the emotions, laughter and little moments we didn’t even realise were happening. Nothing felt forced or awkward, just relaxed and completely us.
So many of our guests commented on how lovely Alex was, and we couldn’t be happier with the final gallery. If you’re looking for a photographer who genuinely cares, is hugely experienced, and delivers beautiful, storytelling images – Alex is the one. We can’t recommend him highly enough.

Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

We booked Alex for the Twilight package with selfie mirror and could not be happier with everything. From the initial booking to our phone consultation before the big day Alex made us feel like nothing was too much trouble. He answered all our questions and put us at ease beforehand.
On the day itself Alex led us through photos we would never have thought of as well as capturing all of our requested photos.
He blended in perfectly and all day we had guests saying how good he was and what a nice guy he was.
The selfie mirror was a massive hit and the printed pictures were extra special.
We received our photos very quickly and were so happy with the quality and how they turned out. Also, receiving our USB through the post of our pictures, presented in a beautiful box, with print outs that we werent expecting, was the icing on the cake.
We would 100% recommend Alex. Thank you for being a massive part of our big day.

We’ve had so many compliments

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
“We honestly can’t thank Alex enough! From the moment he arrived, he felt more like a friend than a photographer. He made everyone feel completely relaxed and somehow managed to capture every special moment without us even realising he was there.
Our photos are absolutely stunning — natural, emotional, and full of joy. The creative evening shots are incredible too! We’ve had so many compliments from friends and family.
If you’re looking for someone who’ll go above and beyond (and make you laugh along the way), Alex is your guy. We couldn’t be happier!” 💍❤️

Can't find the words

I cannot find the right words to express how much we appreciate you taking our booking, the effort and care put into our pictures and videos. How at ease we were with you. Thank you doesn't cover it, but it's a start. Amie & Vicky

Hi, I’m Alex — the photographer behind Alex Mew Photography.

Photography has been a huge part of my life for many years, and I still feel incredibly lucky that I get to do something I genuinely love. Capturing real people, real moments and real emotion is what drives me, whether that’s on a wedding day, in a school, or at a special event.

Away from the camera, I’m a very proud uncle to nine amazing children, which definitely helps when it comes to patience, understanding and knowing how to put people at ease — especially kids! Family means everything to me, and that’s something I carry into my work. I know how important it is to preserve memories that you’ll look back on for years to come.

My approach is relaxed, friendly and down to earth. I want you to feel comfortable being yourself, so the moments I capture feel natural, honest and full of life. Whether I’m photographing a wedding or meeting families for the first time, I take real pride in creating a calm, enjoyable experience from start to finish.

If you’re looking for someone who’s passionate about photography, loves working with people and genuinely cares about telling your story, I’d love to chat.
