Fabulous photographer, love our photos
We would highly recommend Gareth Roy Photography. Gareth was fantastic from the enquiry process through to us receiving our photos. We felt that Gareth listened to our wishes and was able to deliver this, nothing was too much trouble. Gareth was professional and was able to capture our special day perfectly.

Amazing photographer
We chose Gareth to capture our recent vow renewal, and couldn’t be happier with the photos. Not only are his photos stunning, but he’s also genuinely kind and so easy to work with during a photo shoot. Gareth’s ability to multitask, handling photos, videos, and drone shots, added so many unique perspectives to the day. His photography style, with its romantic and soft, flattering filter, was exactly what we wanted. We highly recommend him and only wish we could do it all over again. Well done Gareth❤️

Fantastic photographer
We had such a great experience with Gareth as our wedding photographer. After some initial calls, we first met Gareth during an engagement shoot 6 months before the wedding and he really captured some fantastic pictures of us. We had the photos taken in autumn and he really captured the scenery and vibrancy of the season, and we used the photos throughout our wedding website and for our invites and other stationery.
From the moment he arrived at the wedding, he brought a fun and relaxed energy that made everyone feel at ease. He captures the day as it happens, and was really flexible around timings and all of the different plans we had. We loved that he got so many photos of our guests as well.
The turnaround time from Gareth was very quick, which was great because we were super excited! We had our first photos within 24 hours and the full package within 4 weeks, and it arrived in a lovely packet with a customised USB. Not only the photos but we also received a video that Gareth took with his Meta glasses, it was so much fun and he even got different people to wear his glasses to get different views of what was happening.
We would highly recommend Gareth to everyone - he's like having another friend for your day and his photos are absolutely amazing.

Wedding Photography
Gareth was our photographer for our wedding in January. He arrived early morning to start taking photos of our day. He made the bridal party feel relaxed and I asked for natural photos which he got and they were perfect.
Gareth spent the whole day and evening with us to make sure he captured everything we wanted, he allowed us time to relax with our family and friends in between taking photos. This was the most important part for me as I wanted to be able to enjoy the day as well as having perfect photos.
I would always recommend Gareth to anyone who is looking for a photographer. A few days after our wedding he sent some pictures over for us to look at and we loved them.
We then finally received our stick with all our photos, these were amazing, just what we asked for. He was able to capture everything and even parts that I missed so this was great for us to look back on.
Truly grateful to Gareth for everything.

A wonderful experience
Myself and my now husband feel that Gareth was 100% the right choice for us. He was professional, well mannered but also fun too. I can be quite an anxious person and I felt that Gareth was like having a friend around which was so important to me, there was no pressure, no agenda, just went with the flow and captured natural moments which is what we wanted from our day. He gave us pictures and memories to last a lifetime. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Gareth to all my friends and family. He even does engagement shoots too in your choice of setting. He asked if their were any specific moments / pictures we wanted capturing which I LOVED, so personable. Thank you Gareth. Mr & Mrs Reilly.

Best photographer!
Gareth is such a lovely guy. It was a pleasure to have him as part of our special day.
Our photos are just stunning, both the wedding and engagement ones.
Super professional, our guests thought he was lovely.
Great choice if you have dogs at your wedding too! Our munchkins were no trouble for him at all!
Our photos arrived beautifully packaged on a branded USB in a lovely little pouch which is a wonderful keepsake.
Don’t hesitate to book him!! Ohh and he also had these amazing video glasses, so we had some stunning video footage as well that we were not expecting!
We had to change our engagement shoot date and he was so accommodating, nothing was too much trouble!
And he also put up with my numerous WhatsApp messages!
Thank you so much Gareth, love the Catons xx

Relaxed autumn wedding…..
Gareth was fantastic from start to finish, very relaxed and it felt like he was part of our family. Very personable and easy going. Our pictures are beautiful and he manage to capture some unique moments in time.
Gareth was super fast at editing and sending photos and the little touches from using our confetti in the box to the stunning wooden USB and pouch just rounded off the whole experience.
Would highly recommend, we don’t live near Cheshire but I would definitely travel to use Gareth for future family photos.

Versatile photography at its best!
Having considered several photographers for our small woodland wedding in August, we eventually settled on Gareth. His style of photography and option of the drone definitely helped seal it for us.
Having a small intimate wedding, we were keen to capture our day in a personal way. The finished photos definitely reflect this. We honestly could not of asked for more and cannot recommend Gareth enough. Thank you for capturing our day in the most beautiful way.

Part of the Day!
Gareth was so reassuring during the run up to our wedding (we had an issue with a previous photographer)! We had an engagement shoot in our package and on first meeting him we knew we’d get along for our big day!
On the day, he turned up early morning whilst hair and makeup was in full swing, and he fitted right in. He made everyone feel very comfortable and all my bridesmaids and mum said he was lovely!
During the day he was honestly like a guest with a camera. He was chatting with everyone and mingling around, while taking pics of everyone which was just how we wanted it to be (not making everyone move away and pose when they’re having a good time). He went above and beyond for our day, and we’re sure he was sick of us by the end of the night constantly asking “just one more!!”.
He was such a pleasure to work with for our day and helped to make it so special. Also, we got 50 photos THE DAY AFTER!!! And a special little video he’d made on his funky camera glasses!
A brilliant photographer and an equally great gent! Thanks :D

Gareth is exceptional in everything he does. He is relaxed and made us feel completely at ease and comfortable leading up to the day and the day itself. He just fitted in like a guest and got some incredible shots of our magical day.

We can’t wait to get loads blown up for our walls at home!

A brilliant addition to your wedding
From our first enquiry, Gareth was fantastic. He was friendly and happy to support us with any questions that we had. On our wedding day, he not only provided a brilliant service, but was great fun and easy to chat to which helped to make our day more relaxing - meta glasses were an added extra surprise! Alongside our videographer, he did an amazing job to provide us with a range of beautiful photographs, despite having winds from a recent storm to contend with! We also really appreciated Gareth listening to us as a couple - although it was our wedding day, we were not the most comfortable people around a camera! Gareth helped us to get some lovely shots without feeling pressured. Highly recommend Gareth, and can't thank him enough!
