About

I'm all about you, your day, your story, and being wherever I need to be to capture it. Whether you're tying the knot in Yorkshire, somewhere else in the UK, or halfway across the world maybe a beach in Greece or a mountaintop in Iceland? Twist my arm. If you need me there, I’ll be there.

No stiff poses, no staged scenes - just real, joyful, spontaneous moments. The big laughs, the quiet tears, the chaos, the calm, and everything in between. Sure, there might be a few cheesy poses (gotta keep the parents happy), but mostly it's about those genuine connections between you, your partner, family, and friends. Even the moments you didn’t see happening - I’ll be there to catch them.

You tell me what you want, and I’ll actually listen - like, properly listen. My main goal? To make sure you feel totally at ease, like you’re just hanging out with a mate who happens to have a camera and be quite good with it.

If you're a bit further away or overseas, no problem let's connect over FaceTime, Zoom, Teams or Google Meet. Just drop me a message and we’ll get chatting.

We couldn't have asked for a better photographer than Shane

We honestly couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer than Shane. From the very beginning, his communication was excellent – always prompt, helpful, and reassuring. On the day itself, he was absolutely brilliant. So many of our guests commented on how friendly and professional he was, and we couldn’t agree more.
As two quite introverted and camera-shy people, we were a bit nervous about being photographed so much, but Shane made us feel completely at ease. His warm personality and easygoing nature helped us relax and actually enjoy the experience – something we didn’t think was possible!
The photos are absolutely stunning – beautifully captured moments that we’ll treasure forever. Shane has a real talent for catching those natural, candid moments, and every image feels authentic and full of emotion.
We’re so grateful to have had Shane as part of our day and would wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only incredibly skilled but also a genuinely lovely person to have around on your special day.
Thank you, Shane!

The best in the business!

Wow ! If you’re looking for a wedding photographer (or for any occasion really) look no further!!
Shane photographed our wedding in August 2024. It was a pleasure to have him capture our day so perfectly. From start to finish he wasn’t only a photographer but he played a key role in helping our day run so smoothly. Often referred to as The Eddie’s PA or Keith. 😂
Professional whilst making it personal with a side of humour. Shane went above and beyond all day. From the run up to the wedding, pre wedding shoots to the day nothing was too much to ask.
Our photos are amazing and something we will treasure forever!!
Thank you so much 🤍
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
