0730 Media is a Manchester-based, multi-award-winning wedding photography and videography company, run by a dedicated husband-and-wife team. Known for their relaxed, friendly approach and high-quality results, they specialise in capturing weddings in a natural, authentic, and cinematic style.

Offering a wide range of photography and videography packages starting from just £595, 0730 Media provides flexible options to suit every couple’s needs and budget. They also offer combined photo and video packages, giving couples the convenience of one trusted team working seamlessly together to capture every moment of the day.

Their photography focuses on natural, candid moments—those genuine reactions, emotions, and in-between moments that often go unnoticed—while also delivering creative, beautifully composed images using techniques such as off-camera flash and drone photography (where permitted). On the videography side, they are known for producing cinematic wedding films, including full-length feature films that capture ceremonies and speeches in full, alongside shorter highlight and teaser videos.

What truly sets 0730 Media apart is their hands-on, supportive presence throughout the wedding day. They don’t just turn up and film—they become part of the day itself. Couples regularly praise Allison for being a calming, reassuring presence—often described as a “bride’s wing woman”—helping with everything from organising dresses and calming nerves to keeping the day running smoothly.

With two photographers or videographers as standard, a multi-camera setup, and a commitment to not missing a single moment, 0730 Media ensures every wedding is captured in a way that feels complete, personal, and true to the couple.

Backed by consistent five-star reviews and industry recognition, 0730 Media continues to be a trusted choice for couples looking for professional, friendly, and fully immersive wedding photography and videography that tells the full story of their day.

Daryl & Jadene

0730 Media were absolutely brilliant on our wedding day. From start to finish, they were professional, calm, and a genuine pleasure to have around. They captured every special moment so naturally without ever feeling intrusive, which really allowed us and our guests to relax and enjoy the day.

Their attention to detail and creative eye was exceptional, and the final photos/video exceeded all our expectations. We couldn’t be happier with the results and will treasure them forever.

If you’re looking for a talented, reliable, and friendly media team for your wedding, we can’t recommend 0730 Media highly enough.

Hire them immediately!

Simon and Alison were incredible from helping me get in my dress (something I don't think Alison will soon forget) to keeping the groom calm and presentable (straightening button hole) to the way they interacted with not just us but all of our guests. We really felt sad when it was their time to leave. We were told two days for a sneak peak and we married on friday at 4pm and had the sneak peak by 3pm Sunday. Just amazing.

The Best Videographers ❤️

We got married on the 20th July 2025. We booked 0730 media months prior and from the day of booking they were absolutely amazing. They worked around me and my husband as we work shifts to have a catch up and check in. They put us at ease and were so so supportive on anything we wanted.

When it came to the day I had a slight meltdown. Alison calmed me down and even helped me with my corset dress! We had a chat outside my room as I was getting overwhelmed and they listened to everything I wanted and more.

We received our taster video whilst me and my husband were honeymooning and we both welled up with how fantastic it was. I’m still in contact with Alison now and hope to be forever.

If you are looking for a videographer or are in two minds I can whole heartedly say you will not be disappointed. It’s not just about the day it’s self it’s the relationship leading up to that and as I said they were available at all times and you felt at ease talking to them.

If I could give more than 5 stars I would. ❤️❤️

Absolutely brilliant photographers!

Simon & Allison are just brilliant, they stepped in when we needed them as our other photographer had to cancel due to an operation (completely understandable) these two were just absolutely brilliant, please don’t hesitate to book them, got on with all our guests, were so funny & laidback, got some brilliant teaser photos sent straight away too. Our guests commented on how good they were, it was a pleasure that they were part of out day. Incredibly professional but easy to have a laugh with. Loved how they got all the standard photos but thwn took photos of everything, including our guest, decor and venue. Can’t WAIT to see the drone footage & our content creation. You two are just brillant, myself & Ben can’t thankyou enough! Future couples you will NOT be disappointed! All there packages are well worth the month & you can tell they are so passionate about their work. We saw a lot of packages elsewhere that were extoriate but these guys have amazing affordable packages, again don’t hesitate to book Simon & Allison. Thankyou both so much ❤️ Love Mr & Mrs Cartwright xxx

More than just videographers

I contact Allison & Simon only a few months before my wedding after a problem with my previous one. I explained what had happened and that I was worrying. One video call with these guys and all that had gone away. What amazing people. They are funny too which just added to me feeling more comfortable. ( most of the time - Simon haha)

Communication was easy and so simple everything ran smoothly from start to finish.

They arived on my wedding beaming with energy ready to start the day. Introduced themselves to everyone and explained what was happening and when. They also communicated well with my venue and everything ran so smoothly.

I wanted a little section just about Allison because this women litterally saved my life multiple times. She helped me with my shoes, with my dress, tied my dress up, helped my deco lady as we couldn't get married outside, kept making sure i was ok, helped my husband and groomsmen with there flowers, Getting everyone in order and getting them video ready. She was just fantastic and all 3 of them (photographer too) work perfectly together for a smooth running of my day. So Allison from me to you thank you so very much.

The same day I recieved a few social media clips and then the day after recieved a short video of snips through out the day. Around a week later a longer a video and then right on queue I recieved my video in the post on a USB stick. Yesterday me and my husband sat down and watch our 1 hour and half video and it had me smiling, crying, laughing and now I'm very sad because I have the wedding blues all over again. It put me right back to that moment. How is felt and how amazing my day was.

Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts yous was amazing.

10/10; amazing!

Simon & Allison worked alongside Joe Hague on our wedding last week; and wow! From the moment we first started our interactions with these 3 it was amazing - super light hearted, knowledgable and really help put you at ease.
The first phone call I had with Simon really helped put my mind at ease; a genuinely friendly guy who listens and wants to provide the best possible service for your day - a bespoke package was out together to ensure we got everything covered that we wanted in our twilight wedding ceremony!
On the day, they were all putting smiles on our faces and cracking jokes which really helped me feel relaxed, also I had a 20 month old little girl in tow, who was included and interacted with at every opportunity!

A 1 minute video sneak peak was also sent out the day after - incredible service :)

Honestly, could not recommend any other service more :)

Videography for the Jades wedding - 5 ⭐ from start to finish

Well where to start, we were originally apprehensive about booking a videographer as it's an additional cost on top of everything else you already plan to pay for.. but after debating we took the plunge and we are so glad we did!

0730 media (Simon and Allison) were amazing, asking us what package we would want, asking when we would want to be video'd from and up to which point. Talking with us through each stage and telling us not to worry about timing because they were here for us and would work round us regardless of how much out of scheduled timing the day was.

Both Simon and Allison, definitely stuck to their word and exceeded our expectations.. they didn't only stay until our first dance like we had requested they captured so much more after this part and honestly felt like part of our family being there and like we had known them forever❤️

They helped make our day special just through their personalities and the laughs they helped create throughout our day - you guys really need to give credit to yourselves for how amazing you are!

We had a couple of zoom video meetings for introduction and also a chat closer to the time to discuss things in more detail once timings and things had been put in place - each time every chat was amazing, we was never left with unanswered questions! Your communication was phenomenal❤️

We had clear communication following our wedding too regarding the final video and the touches of the received USB is so personal and a lovely touch - thank you so much!🙈

To have 3 videos in our package - trailer (couple of minutes), showreel (around 5 minutes) and our final (56 minute video) were beyond our expectations and captured everything we could have wished for! I would 1000000% recommend having a videographer but I would recommend to anyone that you guys are the people anyone should choose - I honestly don't think our day would have been the same without you guys!

Thank you again - The Jades! Xx

Absolutely Amazing!

Alison & Simon have been absolutely amazing throughout the whole process, they made sure our day was perfect! Not only did they do the videography they helped make our day run as smoothly as possible, from finding me a last minute photographer, helping the men with their ties to helping me with my dress!
Our photos are absolutely beautiful and something we can treasure forever!
I will forever be grateful to the both of you and how much you helped us on the run up and during our wedding day!
Thank you so much! 💕

Incredible, Friendly, Professional

If I could have my wedding day all over again, I'd hire the Nortons in a heartbeat. Both were so professional but approachable and friendly, they blended so well into our families that the majority of the time I didnt realise the camera was even there! The video itself and the highlights turned out phenominal. Wilk be recommending these guys to anyone and everyone!
