Last update: December 2025

Hi, I’m Christy, a Manchester wedding photographer capturing real, candid moments across the North West and beyond. My approach is all about genuine emotion and natural, timeless colours that tell the true story of your day.

Your wedding is one of the most meaningful celebrations you’ll share with your family and friends. That’s why I take the time to get to know each couple and understand their plans, helping the day feel smooth, relaxed, and stress-free. You can stay fully present and enjoy every moment! I’ll take care of preserving it beautifully.

My couples often tell me I’m quick to reply, helpful, efficient, flexible, and easy to work with. I also offer thoughtfully designed albums so you can relive your special day for years to come!

If you connect with my style, have a look through my work and send me a message. I’d love to hear all about your wedding!

Truly Exceptional Wedding Photography Experience

We had an absolutely wonderful experience with Christy Photography. From the first conversation to the final delivery of our photos, Christy was warm, professional, and incredibly attentive.

She captured every important moment of our wedding day with such natural emotion and beautiful detail. We never felt rushed or posed — Christy made us feel completely comfortable, and her positive energy brought out the best in everyone.

In terms of value for money, her service exceeded our expectations. She was organised, communicative, and truly cared about understanding what was important to us. The photos we received are stunning and full of memories we will cherish for a lifetime.

We would highly recommend Christy Photography to any couple looking for someone talented, reliable, and genuinely passionate about their work.

True professional!

Was in contact with us from the start, was open to suggestion and would help plan and co-ordinate capturing the special moments together.

Was accommodating with any issues we had on the day and such a lovely person. Would fully recommend Christy for your wedding. You will not be disappointed

Wedding photographer

Christy was absolutely amazing to work with! From the moment we first met her, she made us feel completely comfortable and excited about our wedding photos. She has such a warm, calming presence — exactly what you need on a busy and emotional wedding day.

Christy captured every special moment so beautifully, from the big, emotional moments to the little candid smiles in between. Her attention to detail is incredible — every photo feels genuine and full of emotion. We were blown away by how perfectly she captured the atmosphere and love of the day.

Beyond her talent behind the camera, Christy was organized, professional, and made everything so easy. She kept things running smoothly without ever making it feel rushed or posed. When we got our gallery back, we couldn’t stop smiling — every image felt like a memory we could relive forever.
If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but truly cares about her couples, Christy is the one!

Brilliant photos - incredible eye for light and detail!

Christie was very dedicated to getting lovely shots for us on our wedding day - despite the pouring manchetser rain and wind! Her advice prepared us for that (including the right umbrellas to buy) and we had a great day.

Gorgeously lit, beautifully focussed and exposed pictures

We had such beautiful images back from Christy and are so grateful to her for covering our big day, and doing it so discreetly and quickly.
From the beginning, Christy was great at communication, and helped us think about how to structure our day. We had a very low key, informal ceremony planned, but Christy helped us think about key moments that we would remember, and on the day was so good at directing us and capturing small vignettes that we might otherwise have forgotten about in all the day’s hubbub and confusion.
We found Christy accommodating on the day, and flexible and creative enough to change plans when the heavens opened even more than usual in Manchester.
She was good value, and she came back with gorgeously lit, beautifully focussed and exposed pictures within three days. We would highly recommend her.

Fantastic photographer!

From our very first inquiry, Christy was an absolute dream to work with. She was incredibly responsive and took the time for two full consultations to make sure we felt completely prepared. She walked us through the entire process, gave us some wonderful ideas for our photos, and helped us plan our shot list.

On the day of the wedding, Christy arrived early and was a true professional. Despite the rain affecting our original plans, she didn't miss a beat. She quickly came up with alternative ideas and we were blown away by her creativity and flexibility. She managed to capture all the group photos we requested, plus some beautiful couple portraits. What we loved most, though, were the countless candid photos she took of our guests. She really captured the joy and emotion of the day, making sure to get a photo of all of our guests enjoying our day.

The turnaround time was incredible—we had our fully edited photos in just a few days. The final gallery is everything we could have hoped for. It tells the story of our day perfectly, capturing not just the big moments, but the quiet, happy ones with our loved ones. We are so incredibly happy we found her and would recommend her in a heartbeat to any other couple.

Wedding Liver Building Ceremony and outdoor bar for wedding party

Christy was our photography for our day and we have been simply blown away by her photographs. She very quickly processed our photos and sent them over and we couldn’t believe how beautiful they were. She captured some incredibly special moments and my guests commented on how dedicated she was throughout the day to quote “the photographer was on it”! Christy is the utmost professional and talented photographer. Her rates should be increased as she really is skilled and we received a top tier service for a very reasonable price. Don’t think twice when looking to book with her! We did a city based wedding and moved between different venues - Christy adapted to this and captured all these moments perfectly and well beyond our expectations. Thank you for your incredible job Christy 🤍

Beautiful photos, very helpful.

Christy did a great job with our photography. We had a couple of video meetings to plan the day and she gave lots of helpful information to get the best results. She sent the photos through incredibly quickly after the wedding and we are delighted with them.

Everything that we wanted in our wedding photographer!

We were so lucky to have had Christy as our wedding photographer. She’s professional, super efficient and very attentive to details. She gave us a lot of tips and reminders for the day that we didn’t even think about. We’re the not the most comfortable having our photo taken so we booked a prewedding shoot with Christy as well just to familiarise ourselves which gave us the chance to meet Christy in person before the wedding which definitely made a difference as we could be completely ourselves on the actual day. We can’t express how grateful we are to have her capture our special day! Thank you!

Brilliant photographer

We were so glad we booked Christy for our big day. She is very easy to work with, skilfully leading us through the planning process, always quick to communicate and adaptable, as well as providing us with useful advice.
She is a brilliant photographer. Her photographs were beautifully shot. She was totally unobtrusive when mingling with guests, yet perfectly captured the atmosphere of our wedding day.

Exceptional Photographer – Organised, Skilled, and a Joy to Work With

We had a fantastic experience working with Christy. From the very start, she was incredibly organised and thorough, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. My step-mother said "every time I looked round there was this incredible young woman who seemed to be everywhere." She managed to get everything without intruding on the action. Her eye for detail and creative approach show just how skilled she is. Highly recommended!

Professional and Flexible

We’re very happy - Christy photographed our wedding and our experience with her service was great. We wanted a non-intrusive photographer with a few quick family photos and some of the event, so we could just enjoy the day and not spend ages doing photos. Christy adapted to what we wanted. Communications were great, price was good and pics were good. Not only that, Christy is a lovely person.

Wedding at the Palm House

Christy shot our wedding at the Palm House, she was really great at communicating and the end result is fantastic! I love the photos, she caught everyone on the day. I got several compliments from guests at how hard she worked throughout the day and you can see that from the photos she produced.
