About Iain Yarwood | North Wales Wedding Photographer & Videographer
Hi, I'm Iain. And I genuinely can't wait to be part of your wedding day.
I know that choosing your wedding photographer and videographer is one of the biggest decisions you'll make in the run up to your wedding. You're not just hiring someone to take pictures. You're inviting someone to be with you from the moment you're getting ready right through to the night do. Someone who'll be in the room for the quiet moments, the emotional ones, the chaotic ones, and the ones that'll make you cry laughing when you look back at them years from now.
So it matters that you actually like that person. That you trust them. That you feel completely comfortable around them.
I hope this page helps with that.
My journey into photography didn't start with an art degree or a fancy internship. It started behind the counter at Currys.
I spent years in electrical retail, working my way from the warehouse all the way up into store management. Along the way I developed a genuine love for technology, a real understanding of people, and a set of skills that I bring to every single wedding I shoot. Business planning, attention to detail, staying calm under pressure, and knowing that the most important person in any room is the one standing in front of you.
My photography and videography is entirely self taught. No formal training, just ten years of showing up, paying attention, and learning something new from every couple I've worked with. Even now, after hundreds of weddings, I still walk away from every single one having picked up something I didn't know before. That's not a weakness. It's what keeps me sharp and keeps me genuinely excited about the job.
On your wedding day, my job goes beyond photos and videos.
The morning of a wedding I'm excited and completely in the zone, but I never lose sight of the fact that this is one of the biggest days of your life. Before I even arrive I have a clear plan for the day. I know what's happening and when, what kit I need to have ready, and where the best light is going to be. So you don't have to think about any of that. You just get to enjoy it.
Something I always say to my couples is this: control what you can control. The weather, the traffic, the supplier who's running ten minutes late, none of that is worth a moment of stress on your wedding day. If it rains? We'll grab a white umbrella, find a puddle, and get a reflection shot that'll be one of your favourites from the whole day.
My job on the day is to keep spirits high and smiles on faces. Because here's the truth: happy, relaxed people make for stunning photos. The two things are completely connected.
When I deliver your finished gallery or film, I won't pretend I don't feel nervous. Every time I send that link across I have a few days of genuine anticipation waiting for the reaction. Not because I doubt the work, but because I care deeply about it. I want you to feel exactly what you felt on the day when you watch it back.
More often than not, the message I get back on WhatsApp makes the whole thing worthwhile all over again. When couples take the time to write a review describing how the work made them feel, that's not just a nice thing to read. That's exactly why I do this job, and exactly how I want to keep doing it.
