Jeff is a ‘superstar’ cinematographer who travels the world videoing the weddings of the rich and famous.

In the past we have often been asked if we can recommend a videographer but we have never had the confidence to recommend anyone that meets our very high standards. We started a search to find a creative videographer some time ago and have reviewed the work of dozens of companies. One stands out head and shoulders above all others. Jeff Wood.

Our styles are so similar and the way work so unobtrusive we have decided to ‘team up’ and provide wedding couples with the ‘ultimate’ wedding package.

A few examples of his work can be seen below – I am sure you will agree, he is just so different and creative.

You can now book both photographer (Mike McCann here at Northwest Photography) and Jeff in our new ‘ultimate’ package!!

In the examples below the book has an acrylic front cover – but you can choose brushed metal with a picture etched into it, polished metal, photographic paper or cream/black/brown leather. The pages are 5mm thick and lay flat when opened.

In the pictures below you can also see our ‘mid-sized’ books, ‘mini’ books and ‘pocket’ books – all are smaller reproductions of the full-sized album. These albums are simply the best money can buy, and are included as standard in our wedding package.

5mm thick pages give a luxury feel

In this exmple the front cover picture is protected behind a piece of clear acrylic

Each page is coated to make it ‘wipe clean’ and is protected against sunlight fading

Each book is different and individually designed with the guidance of the bride and groom

The book contains approx 80 pictures and 40 pages

You can sit with us and watch/help the design process if you wish

Artistic effects can be added to pictures to give a modern, contemporary look

Each book is presented in a stunning black protective box and is wrapped in black cotton fabric

Smaller copies of the main book/album can be ordered from us – a great gift for parents and guests

Above are examples of the many sizes that can be ordered. They range in price from £195 to £25 each (depending on size)

The perfect way to display pictures from your special day !

Below are picture showing our brushed metal covered albums – this example is to be given to Sandhole Oak Wedding Barn in Cheshire to show to clients.

The stunning brushed metal cover with a picture of your choice etched into it (at no extra charge!)

The metal cover is heavy and sturdy and built to last a life-time

As with the acrylic covers – the album lays flat when open……..

……….. allowing us to print panoramic pictures across 2 pages

Above shows the 4 different cover styles. Acrylic, Photo Paper, Polished Metal and Brushed Metal.

If you would like to see (and feel) an actual album then please to contact us using the contact button at the top of the page to arrange a meeting.

Below is a real-life example of what we can do to a photograph (and it only took about 45 seconds!)

... and after a few seconds of work with our 'magic' software!

No matter how much planing goes into a wedding no one can predict the great British weather. But don’t despair – whilst you may feel rain will ruin your wedding rain, the reality is you will hardly notice. As wedding photographers we can do a lot to help. We bring 24 umbrellas with us (12 white and 12 black) that look really good in your photographs and also white cork wedges in every size so you won’t ruin your special shoes by walking on wet grass in them.

We don’t do what most wedding photographers do and hide you inside if it is raining. We make sure that even it is just for a few minutes, we take you outside and make the most of the weather. Some great moody, artistic pictures can be shot in the rain.

So don’t worry about the weather! Below are some pictures we have shot in appalling weather.

A great way to present your wedding pictures that can be played on any TV or PC.

A little 'tweaking' of the arms. Before and After

In the above picture we felt that although we liked the image, the brides arm was a little unflattering, so we ‘worked our magic’ and thinned it a little – along with her waist!

Removal of guests - Before and After

The above example was a request from the bride. She really wanted a picture with just herself, her husband and the guy on the left . We simply removed all the other guests completely from the image!

Changing the background - Before and After

Don’t like the background in your picture? No problem, we can place you on a Caribbean Beach or on top of a mountain at sunset if you wish. More examples of image manipulation will be posted soon. Remember – our image manipulation service is provided free of charge for all images placed in Digital Art Books/Albums !

After a lot of consideration we decided recently to update our website. The old one had served us well for 2 years but we wanted a new site that reflected the contemporary style of our photography. The new site, which went live today, is created using Flash graphics and so is not ‘search engine’ friendly. For this reason we have kept the old ‘text based’ site online and now give visitors the choice of viewing the new or old site by making a choice on the first page. We hope you like the ‘new look’ and your comments and suggestions are very welcome. You can view the new site by clicking the picture above.

Do you have friends or family that can’t attend your wedding in person?

If so we have the answer. So long as your wedding venue has an internet connection we can broadcast your ceremony LIVE over the internet! We bring along a video camera, microphone and laptop PC to the venue on the morning of your wedding and just before the ceremony we start the broadcast. All your family and friends can watch the wedding ‘as it happens’ form any PC in the world connected to the internet. Prior to the wedding we give you a unique website address that you pass on to anyone to you would like to watch the ceremony. They simply visit this website at the time of the ceremony and watch it!
