Martin Japheth Photography creates elegant, emotionally rich wedding photography for couples who want beautiful portraits that look like art but feel completely real.

Based in Glasinfryn near Bangor, North Wales, and covering Cheshire and the wider UK, Martin brings over 30 years of experience behind the lens. That depth, combined with a background in fashion and fine art, gives his work a distinctive editorial edge, so every gallery feels timeless, modern and deeply personal.

The experience: calm, friendly and unscripted

Your wedding is not a photoshoot, it is a celebration. From your first consultation, Martin takes the time to understand your day and what matters to you, and that familiarity is what puts even the most camera-shy couples at ease by the time the cameras are out.

There is no forced posing here. From the quiet glances to the loudest laughs, Martin documents the day as it naturally unfolds, light-filled, unscripted and full of heart. He gently shapes the scene so you look your best, then steps back to let the genuine connections shine through. For most of the day he works as an observer, stepping in with light editorial direction only during your portraits.

Why couples choose Martin:

• The editorial eye: with a background in fashion, Martin reads light and angles differently, creating images that would sit happily in a magazine spread.
• The documentary soul: he captures the raw, honest moments that make your story yours alone.
• The personal touch: every wedding is treated as a new story, with care and attention from the first consultation to the final artwork.

Whether it is a windswept coastal elopement in Snowdonia or a grand celebration in a Cheshire manor, Martin creates meaningful images that last a lifetime.
