Last update: January 2025

by William Odell is a Bridgnorth, Shropshire-based wedding photographer.

Your photographs will be one of the lasting treasures from your special day. They will live on forever, preserving a time capsule of memories for you and your loved ones over the years to come. That's why, as a wedding photographer, I put my heart and soul into every single wedding that I photograph.

I am passionate about telling the unique story of your wedding through a relaxed and informal documentary style approach. Capturing authentic memories for you to look back on and feel for a lifetime through touching, romantic and emotional photographs.

I step back from the action and try not to stage the day, but capture the moments that happen rather than create those that don’t. I don’t want you to feel pressured during the day because of consistent demands to fit into a series of pre-planned wedding photographs; I want your day to run smoothly and most importantly for you to enjoy it. So whilst I am there to help with buttonholes and occasionally take bridesmaids to the church, for the most part I’ll be in the background hard at work, making sure I capture all of the special moments. ​

A little more about me...

I give my all to every couple, as I genuinely want to ensure I capture the most special moments and make your experience the absolute best it can be.

I’m very patient and a natural with getting people to be comfortable in front of the camera, particularly children.

Your photos will be as special and as personal as your day, focusing on what matters the most: you and your love.

I've been there too...

Having been through this process myself, I can promise you that with the right photographer, you will have precious memories to relive over and over.

I've experienced all of the excitement, anticipation and joy of a wedding, so I think this really helps in understanding what a couple is preparing for and how I can ask the right questions to ensure I listen and understand exactly what you want me to capture on your big day.

What I can provide...

Packages - The standard package includes whole-day coverage, from morning preparations to the dance floor including:

  • ​Pre wedding consultation; video or phone calls, whatever suits you best.
  • 8/10 hours wedding photography coverage.
  • Photo teaser within 5 days; a chance to see some of the highlights soon after your wedding day.
  • A beautiful online personalised gallery with highlights from your wedding.
  • 500+ edited photographs provided in high resolution format via digital download; images can be printed, shared and uploaded as much as you would like for your own personal use. Delivered within 5 weeks.

Location - by William Odell is located in Shropshire, but covers the whole of the UK.

Any questions, please feel free to get in touch.

Many thanks,

Will

The best in the business!

We were lucky enough to secure Will as our wedding photographer in May this year. Having already met with several photographers, we felt immediately in safe hands with Will. He understood “us” and the assignment and captured our day perfectly. Will wasn’t intrusive yet managed to capture all aspects of our special day, including some incredible candid shots!. Will is such good fun and engaged with all of our wedding party brilliantly, everybody commented on how wonderful he was with them, including the children in attendance, yet he really did just blend into the background during those special moments. Will captured over 800 incredible shots making it an impossible task to choose the album pics! Will was an integral part of making our day so special, we cannot thank him enough! Highly recommend!

Beautiful, professional service with a kind heart too!

I can’t thank Will enough for the day.

Everyone said how great he was (without even being prompted!) and the kids adored Will! He made it so easy!

I loved having my little spy to show me the moments I missed!

The photos really did capture the people and the day, down to the smallest details that we'd poured our efforts into!

Thanks to Will for the beautiful memory prompts that will last forever. I would whole heartedly recommend him to anybody who needs an exquisite service. ❤️

Would definitely recommend Will!


Will photographed our daughter’s wedding in June 2022. He was amazing!! He travelled to Aberystwyth which meant a very early start for him and from the moment he arrived he put us at ease.



Will never stopped taking pictures all day and went above and beyond to capture lots of candid moments. We can't recommend Will enough! We would not hesitate to use his services again in the future.



Thank you Will for allowing us to relax and leave capturing this special day in your capable hands!! Also thank you for the loan of the belt, which may have saved an embarrassing moment 🤣

Rach and Tom’s wedding

Highly recommend Will! We were delighted with our wedding photos. He really did capture the day so perfectly. He also made all our guests feel so comfortable. Everything felt very natural and none of the photos felt forced. The end result was exactly what we wanted.
