Last update: May 2025

Choosing the right wedding photographer is crucial because your wedding photos will be the most important memories of your special day. If you're considering me as your wedding photographer, here are some compelling reasons:

**Professional Expertise**: Stuart McLernon is known for his professional expertise in the field of photography. Having a seasoned professional means you're more likely to have high-quality photos that capture the essence of your day. My experience enables me to handle the varying lighting conditions and fast-paced environments typical of weddings.

**Artistic Style**: Each photographer has a unique style. Reviewing my portfolio should give you a clear sense of my artistic approach. Whether it’s technique, color palette, or the emotion captured, my style should resonate with what you envision for your wedding photos.

**Attention to Detail**: Good photographers have an innate attention to detail that enables them to capture the magic in mundane moments. My ability to notice and creatively capture the small but significant details can make your wedding album truly special.

**Positive Testimonials**: Being highly recommended by past clients speaks volumes. Positive testimonials and reviews from couples who have worked with me and appreciated my work can assure you of a pleasant and professional experience.

**Personal Rapport**: It’s important that you feel comfortable and connect well with your photographer, as this can greatly affect how natural and relaxed you appear in your photos. It is important to be someone who puts you at ease and understands your vision.

**Reliability**: Having a reliable photographer who arrives on time, respects your schedule, and delivers the final photos promptly is crucial. This reliability means you can be more confident that I will smoothly fit into your wedding day.

**Custom Packages**: Depending on your budget and needs, My flexibility in offering customizable packages can be a significant advantage. Whether you need me for a few hours or a full-day shoot, the ability to tailor services to your preferences can make your experience much more satisfying.

**Pre-Wedding Shoot available**: People can be shy in front of a camera. Booking a pre-wedding shoot can be a great opportunity for you to work with me prior to the wedding day and understand how I operates. This is a great time to share posing tips and to see how you appear on the back of the camera before the big day.

Remember, the best choice in a wedding photographer is not only about the end product but also about ensuring the journey there is enjoyable and stress-free. Take a look through my website and see if I tick all your boxes...

More than just a photographer!

More than just a photographer!

We booked Stuart and Richard after trawling through countless messages from photographers after using a wedding website to find a replacement photographer short notice. Stuart stood out from all the others with his straight to the point approach- perfect for us! We booked him straight away and explained our situation of postponing our wedding due to covid and the passing of my father unexpectedly. Despite eloping we’d decided to have a wedding blessing a year later with family when the restrictions were lifted. Understandably there were aspects of our day that were super important not only to capture our love with our closest people but also sentimental moments. The attention to detail was captured in the build up to the ceremony and throughout, we love our photographs. I didn’t even see the majority of the photographs being taken, this was exactly what we wanted, to trust the right photographs were being taken without us dictating or barking orders on the day. This allowed us to enjoy our special day and not worry about anything. Stuart’s down to earth friendly personality not only put me at ease but also the bridal party, groomsman and guests. It felt like both Stuart and Richard were old friends and they captured special moments throughout the day with ease. We didn’t originally want formal photos due to absent family members but following Stuart’s experienced suggestions we decided to go ahead and we are so grateful for the gentle push, we would of regretted not doing so!

So in summary, if you want down-to-earth, quality photographers with an eye for detail then M-Print Digital Imagery are your guys! The only issue you may have is deciding which photos to have in an album as there are so many amazing photos to choose from. Thanks again Stuart and Richard!

Fabulous Photographer!

We chose Stuart to do our Vow Renewal and we are so glad we did!
We had a pre ceremony chat at our venue and Stuart came up with some great ideas and tips for the day, I felt so much more at ease with all the planning we did beforehand so the day itself was left to enjoy it all, knowing what was happening and feeling stress free.
On the day Stuart and Rick were fantastic, they charmed all the guests and doing so meant the photos were relaxed and natural, apart from the formals though we hardly noticed they were there
We have just recently received our photos back and I was totally blown away with the quality, We are beyond happy with everything Stuart's service provided and of course the photos, We will treasure them
These guys are totally outstanding, I am so glad we went with them
Thanks Stuart & Rick you were fab!

Great photographer!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Stuart for our wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial conversation and pre-meeting right through to the actual day, he made us feel comfortable and at ease and that's reflected in the photos he captured on the day.
The attention to detail and creativity to capture wonderful pictures were beyond our expectations. Every moment, big and small, was beautifully documented, allowing us to relive the joy and emotions of our wedding day. The candid shots were particularly amazing, capturing the genuine happiness and love shared among our family and friends.
The professionalism and dedication of Stuart and his assistant Rick were evident throughout the whole day. They made everyone feel at ease They were punctual, well-prepared, and incredibly patient and, ensuring that every shot was perfect - all captured with a sense of humour. The turnaround time for receiving our photos was impressively quick, and the quality of the images was great.
We highly recommend Stuart to anyone looking for a talented wedding photographer.

Christmas Wedding

We chose Stuart McLernon from Stockportphoto for our Christmas wedding and we couldn’t be more pleased.
We met Stuart before the wedding at our chosen venue to discuss ideas and how the day would unfold. Stuart listened to what we liked and made some great suggestions.
Communication was always spot on and any queries were answered very quickly.
We found pricing was competitive with the current market and we liked that we could add hours rather than having to go for a full package that we didn’t want.
On the day Stuart and his assistant Adam were amazing putting even the most photophobic guest at ease. The group shots were quick and fun to do and many of the guests commented such.
The formal and group shots are stunning and the lightening is beautiful on both which is amazing given the inherent darkness of our venue. Stuart was also flexible allowing us to add a couple of impromptu group shots that we had missed off our list.
Stuart gave us a good mix of formal and informal photos capturing the tears, joy and fun of the day. We will treasure them forever. We love them!
I would highly recommend Stuart of Stockportphoto for your big day.

Brilliant photos

Thanks again to Stuart and Rick for being so wonderful and taking some brilliant photos to help us document our wedding day. Before the wedding, Stuart was super professional and always responsive to any queries, even visiting the venue with us beforehand and making a plan for the day. We always felt like we were in safe hands, and on the day Stuart and Rick were calm, professional and helpful, making sure we got the best shots while still ensuring we and our guests enjoyed ourselves. Even though it was a little bit windy and rainy, you wouldn’t be able to tell it from the photos - they’re lovely and we’re so happy with how they look.

August wedding

Excellent service from the start to end of our special day!
We had great communication with Stuart prior to our wedding where he met us at the venue to look at photo opportunities and then on the day both photographers went above and beyond. We all felt extremely comfortable and they captured every moment perfectly. They took a selection of formal photos and a lot of candid photos. When receiving these we were amazed at how many photos were taken! They captured everyone!
We would highly recommend for anyone looking for a professional photographer!
Thank you!

Wedding photos

We hired Stuart as our wedding photographer and him and Rick were absolutely fantastic. All our guests were at ease around them, everyone really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere they created. We cannot recommend them enough, Stuart was fantastic leading up to the wedding, being easy to contact, holding a pre wedding meeting where we were able to talk through what we wanted and he talked us through the structure and poses to get the best photos as well as offering his advice and easing any worries we had. Our photos were sent through before the 4 week suggestion that Stuart gave us. Our photos are incredible and we have enjoyed spend time going through them, reliving our wedding day. Absolutely excellent job! We can't thank Stuart & Rick enough, we are beyond grateful for the outstanding job they did in capturing our special day.

Wedding photographer

We hired Stuart as our wedding photographer and him and Rick (second shooter) were absolutely incredible all day. All our guests were at ease around them, everyone was laughing and really enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere they created. We’ve had guests say that they actually forgot they were there, which shows just how comfortable they make everyone feel. This in turn has lead to some of the most incredible photos from our wedding day, so many sneaky candid shots that both me and my husband love as well as our guests. The happiness radiates through every single photo. We cannot recommend them enough, Stuart was fantastic leading up to the wedding, holding pre wedding meetings, talking through the structure and poses to get the best photos as well as being someone to share any concerns about the day with as his advice was helpful and ease the worries. Photos were sent through before the 4 week suggestion Stuart gave my husband. Each photo is incredible and we sent hours going through them all. Absolutely phenomenal job, every photo speaks a thousand words. Thank you so much Stuart & Rick, we are beyond grateful for the outstanding job you did.

Bob and Gill’s Wedding

We are two ancient Britons who decided to get married and we are delighted with the service we received from Stuart.
He is a fantastic photographer who put us at ease from the word go. Nothing was too much trouble.
Our guests all remarked on his professionalism and the resulting photographs were very natural and relaxed.
We would most certainly recommend him.
