About

Your wedding story deserves to feel timeless, elegant, and completely you.

I’m Cleo, a wedding photographer based just outside Wrexham, capturing celebrations across Cheshire, North Wales, and the UK in a soft-editorial, romantic style.
From the first excited emails to the final heirloom album, I’m a calm, friendly presence, more like a trusted friend with a camera than a vendor. Couples often tell me they forgot they were being photographed; that’s exactly how I love to work.
I focus on genuine connection: Dreamy, light-filled portraits that feel timeless, candid laughter that never looks staged, and beautifully styled details that tell the full story of your day.

Services include:

  • Full-day luxury wedding photography
  • Engagement and pre-wedding sessions
  • Bespoke fine-art prints and albums

Wherever your love story takes you, from elegant Cheshire estates to windswept North Wales venues, I’d love to capture it with warmth and quiet artistry.

Cleo Stella Photography, based in Marchwiel, outside Wrexham, provides couples with stunning wedding photography, capturing the big day’s essence, emotion, and joy.

Beyond Incredible! Cleo Stella Photography Made Our Day Unforgettable

I was a bride who struggled to find vendors as I wanted everything to be absolutely perfect. After looking at lots of different photographers, I just wasn't 100% happy... until I came across Cleo Stella Photography and her portfolio of work. Her romantic style of editing was exactly what I wanted, and after having an initial meeting with her, I felt that my wedding photography was in very safe hands.

From start to finish, Cleo Stella Photography was an absolute dream to work with. Cleo is not only incredibly talented behind the camera, but also one of the most calming and professional presences you could hope to have on your wedding day, and I really didn't realise how much that would matter, until the day itself and later, upon reflection. I had an incredible wedding day, and aside from the obvious (marrying the love of my life), I really think Cleo helped in making it such a good experience for me.

Weddings can be one of the most nerve-wracking days in your life, but Cleo made both my husband and myself feel completely at ease. Our guests even commented on how amazing she was! Everything felt very natural and it was clear that Cleo cared about us as a couple, wanting to ensure she photographed the love and care that our day held for us. Cleo truly has a gift for capturing the most genuine, beautiful moments in a way that feels effortless. Every photo reflected the emotion and joy of the day so perfectly. She even ensured to take photos of all the little touches we had incorporated within our wedding, which is something I'm so glad she did! Cleo made sure to advocate for what my husband and I wanted, and she made sure everything was perfect for me, from adjusting my veil and dress, to getting all the awkward shots she knew I really wanted (even more so since she was only 5 weeks away from giving birth!).

Cleo was also impressively fast - we received our sneak peeks so quickly (and they were stunning), and our full wedding album followed soon after, packed with so many breathtaking images. We couldn’t believe how much she delivered, and every single image being of such high quality and great care to detail, for such a reasonable price. The value is truly exceptional for the quality of her work.

Cleo is one of those rare photographers who is not just amazing at what she does, but also makes the entire experience fun, relaxed, and memorable. 10/10 - I genuinely cannot recommend her enough!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
