Jon Bailey Weddings

I provide professional wedding photography and videography across Cheshire, the North West and throughout the UK.

My approach is relaxed, natural and story-led. I focus on genuine moments, real emotion and strong imagery without making the day feel overly posed or staged.

From small registry office ceremonies to full-day weddings and evening celebrations, coverage can be tailored around your timings, priorities and the parts of the day that matter most to you.

I also offer wedding films and drone coverage where suitable.

My career began in the angling and outdoor industry, where I spent many years producing photography and video content for fishing brands, sponsored anglers and publications across the UK.

Working outdoors in unpredictable conditions taught me how to plan carefully, adapt quickly and capture real moments as they happen. Over time, my work naturally expanded into weddings, where that same approach works perfectly.

I now focus on creating relaxed, natural wedding photography and films that tell the story of the day without making everything feel staged or over-directed.

The subject may have changed, but the aim is still the same: to create honest, engaging images that capture the atmosphere and the people properly.

I bring more than 15 years of professional photography and videography experience, originally working within the outdoor and angling industry before expanding into weddings, events and commercial work.

Over the years I’ve produced photography and film for recognised brands including Atomos, Deeper, Rapala and Fox Rage, as well as colleges, councils, venues and businesses across the UK. That experience has taught me how to work quickly, adapt to changing situations and capture important moments naturally — all of which carries directly into the way I photograph and film weddings.

I work with professional Canon camera equipment, DJI drones, specialist audio and video production equipment, with backup equipment available where needed.

I’m fully insured with public liability cover and insured for commercial drone work, with aerial coverage available where the location, weather and permissions allow.

I work with couples who want their wedding photographed or filmed in a relaxed, natural way, without the day feeling overly staged or formal.

That includes everything from small registry office ceremonies and intimate family weddings to full-day celebrations, evening receptions and larger weddings where extra photography, videography or content coverage is needed.

I also work with couples who are planning something a little less traditional and want the photography to reflect the day as it actually felt.

I have more than 15 years of professional photography and videography experience and am fully insured, including public liability cover.

My work has also been featured in Pro Moviemaker magazine, alongside being published through industry brands and platforms.

I am CAA-registered and insured for commercial drone operations, with aerial coverage available where the location, weather and permissions allow.
