Hi, We’re Sharon & Mike!
"Capturing the chaos, the laughs, and the love."
If you are currently planning a wedding in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, or Derbyshire and your ultimate goal is to throw an absolute monster of a party surrounded by the people you love, we are going to get along just fine.
We are a husband-and-wife wedding photography team, and we specialize in natural, candid, and completely unscripted documentary storytelling.
Our Philosophy:
Less Time Staging. More Time Partying.
Look, we get it. Nobody wakes up in the morning knowing how to model for a camera. Frankly, the thought of standing in a line for two hours smiling on command sounds pretty exhausting to us, too. That is why we don't do it. We don't look to take over your day, dictate your schedule, or force you into stiff, awkward poses. We treat your wedding day exactly like what it is, a massive, joyful celebration, not a high-fashion photoshoot.We slip into the background to capture the real, unadulterated energy of your day: the deep belly laughs, the surprise tears, the terrible dance moves, and the quiet glances you think nobody else is watching. By matching your easygoing energy, we make sure you spend your day exactly where you should be: with a drink in your hand, laughing with your family and friends.
Yes, We Do Family Photos (The Parent Pleasers!)
While we are mainly documentary-led, we are not total photography purists. We know how important it is to get those classic family group shots, the ones that make your parents and grandparents incredibly happy! But here is our promise: We'll keep your family formals quick, organized, and fun. On the day, Mike and I get them done efficiently so your family looks amazing, nobody is left standing around, and you can get right back to your drinks and your guests in no time at all.
The Sharon & Mike Double-Act (Why Two is Better Than One)
Because we are a husband-and-wife team, we’ve developed a bit of a mind-reading dynamic behind the lens. When you book our £1,600 Full Story package, you get both of us as standard.
Having two photographers means you don't have to miss a single angle of your memories:
Whilst one of us is capturing the quiet pre-ceremony anticipation over here, the other is catching the pre-wedding beers and chaos over there. And, while one of us is whisking you away for a quick, relaxed 10-minute stroll around your venue, the other is at the reception catching your friends downing shots or crying laughing.
5 Things You Should Probably Know About Us:
We feel like friends first:
By the time your wedding day rolls around, and after we've had a proper laugh together during your complimentary engagement shoot, we’ll feel more like wedding guests than formal suppliers.
We are absolute suckers for local venues (but also love to travel):
Whether you’re throwing an industrial, neon-soaked party in Kelham Island, a rustic barn wedding in Derbyshire, or an outdoor festival wedding in the Peak District, we love the creative spaces our region has to offer. But, don't worry if you're planning on celebrating further a field, we'll happily cover that too!
We don't watch the clock:
Our coverage starts with the morning hairspray and finishes when the dancefloor turns chaotic. We stay to tell the full story.
Behind the scenes:
When we aren't chasing confetti lines or capturing epic dance-offs, you'll usually find us planning our next travel adventure, scouting for great places to eat, getting our nature fix down the allotment or arguing over who gets the last pack of salt n vinegar crisps!
We love laid-back people:
We thrive around couples who don't take themselves too seriously. And, if you're an animal lover, you'll get extra bonus points with us (especially if they are guest of honour at your wedding!)
If your priority is good vibes, great food, and real memories, then you are our kind of people!
LET'S MAKE IT OFFICIAL!
We only take on a limited number of weddings each year to ensure we give every single couple our absolute best, high-energy selves. Because of that, prime summer weekend dates tend to vanish quickly.
If you love real moments and want a relaxed, fun-filled wedding photography experience that lets you actually enjoy your wedding day, we would love to meet you!
Love,
Sharon & Mike
