Carlisle Wedding Photographer
Carlisle Wedding Photography Bespoke to you
Precious memories deserve to be captured and preserved for the future.
My Approach to Weddings
My aim is to capture beautiful classical images that reflect reality. I love to capture natural candid moments, real emotions and reactions in an unobtrusive way. I love capturing the tears, the laughter, the expressions and the details of the wedding. The moments and people that you will remember for ever along with the things that you maybe missed in all the excitement of the day.
The photos of yourselves and your friends that are captured on your wedding day are pivotal in recording your history.
My approach is to tell the story of your day. They say that every picture tells a story so all you have to decide is how long you want the story to be.
AMAZING
“Amazing pictures that I will treasure forever! Allan and Joshua were so friendly and the pictures are so natural! Allan ensured we got all the pictures we asked for and even more we thought up on the day! Thank you.”

I’m always happy to talk through your requirements so just get in touch
DELIGHTED
“Allan Blackett kindly agreed to take the photographs for our recent wedding. It was a very small wedding but I was firstly impressed that he remembered everyones name. It really felt like he was part of the group. He was very relaxed and not in the slightest intrusive. At times I almost forgot he was there. We were delighted with him on the day as he made us all so relaxed which created a more natural look.”
How it works
HOW DO WE BOOK YOU FOR A WEDDING?
First, you need to contact me with the date and if possible the venue or area in the country your wedding will take place. I will then let you know if I am available. Your wedding is booked as soon as you sign your contract online and pay your £200 non-refundable booking fee. The final balance is due 30 days before your wedding day.
DO YOU OFFER VIDEOGRAPHY?
I have always seen videography as a different skill to that of taking still photographs, as such I do not offer that service, but can certainly recommend some great videographers that I have worked with.
