I'm Brian Wheatley. A professional creative with a background in advertising and design. Let me bring you my experience of over 18 years of filming and photography for both Weddings and Events.
Capturing Your Wedding Day Through Stunning Photography
With a rich background in graphic design, video production, and photography, my unique style of wedding photography beautifully blends creativity and storytelling. At every wedding, my focus is on the people, the details, and the unforgettable moments that make your special day truly yours.
I specialize in creating breathtaking images that tell the story of your wedding through an interactive and artistic photojournalistic approach. Using a mix of natural light, flash, and the beauty of the local environment, I capture couples and guests in relaxed, authentic ways that reflect the emotions of the day.
Expect a mix of fun, candid photos that capture genuine joy and timeless traditional family portraits perfect for albums or wall art. Every image is designed to showcase your wedding day with elegance and emotion.
Posing is an art form, and I take care to craft the perfect composition for each couple. From the flow of the wedding dress to the vibrant colours of flowers, materials, and surroundings, every detail matters. I focus on how these elements harmonize or contrast with skin tones, lighting, and the natural environment while ensuring your interactions and emotions shine through.
Wedding photography with me is more than just point-and-shoot. It’s about preserving the essence of your day in stunning, timeless images that you’ll treasure for years to come.
Let me tell your love story through photography that is as unique and beautiful as your wedding day.
What do I cover?
My coverage for pure photography at a wedding could start with the bridal preparations. Relaxed, friendly and natural photography of you and your bridesmaids and family getting ready. With images of your wedding dress, perfume and jewellery as well as flowers and shoes. Great Wedding Photographers know how to arrange these items so they look stunning when photographed.
Moving on with the day I cover the arrivals at the church or wedding venue with candid photography of close family and friends. Images of the groom with his best man and ushers in various poses would be captured if requested. Maybe a close-up shot of the rings and button holes. Then meeting the bride as she arrives with her bridal party before she walks down the aisle.
Awesome coverage of you getting hitched and then on to the Photo Call. A mixture of organised groups as well as candid relaxed portraits of people enjoying the big day. Then I take you away from the crowds of adoring family and friends for some intimate and romantic location imagery of the two of you. Looking for perfect light and locations for amazing and romantic portraits of both the bride and groom. I may even use my drone to get some dynamic overhead shots.
Then I cover the wedding reception room with close-ups of the beautiful cake, table decorations and favours. Maybe a mock cake-cutting photo whilst you are being shown the room by the wedding planners. Then I'd be capturing special photos of guests as they enter the room to find their seats. Followed by the Bride and Groom making their big entrance.
Of course, your Photographer should capture the speeches, cake cutting, and the first dance. With wonderful photographs of the speeches with your guests listening and enjoying the amusing stories about the bride and groom.
If you have a specific itinerary for the day I could be flexible but this may mean I have to charge slightly differently for my time.
From start to finish I aim to provide you with stunning and emotional photography that you will simply adore.
What do you get?
At the moment I'm offering the final hi-res images on a USB drive within a styled box and on an online gallery. If you require a designed wedding album there will be a charge depending on the photo album that you choose.
You'd receive well over 500 photographs and upwards! You would also share the copyright to these great pictures to print off yourself.

Wedding photography is more than just capturing beautiful moments. It requires consistency in both words and actions. Meeting client expectations is important, but exceeding them with stunning images is the ultimate goal.
Pre-Wedding PhotoShoot Included
All my local Wedding Photography packages include a PRE-WEDDING PHOTOSHOOT.*
This would be held outdoors in your favourite park, country walk, or even at your future wedding venue. Maybe spend a casual hour around Dudley Priory or Himley Park posing for some natural or fun portraits. Here’s a link to some wonderful wedding venues in and around Dudley.
This way we can get to know each other and talk about my style of photography that would suit you for your wedding day story. All images will be supplied via an online gallery that you can download. What a great way to gain confidence in both being in front of a camera and my abilities as a photographer.
*NB This is only for wedding photography packages within a 50-mile radius of my home.
AMAZING LOCATIONS FOR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS NEAR ME IN DUDLEY - WEST MIDLANDS
Himley Hall in Dudley.
Dudley has a rich heritage of being the heart of the Black Country. With some amazing historical sites such as Dudley Zoo and the Priory Ruins. Many of these buildings are still used today for hosting wedding day ceremonies or wedding receptions. Let's focus on a few of my favourites for the best photos and stunning videos.
Take the Priory Ruins near Dudley town centre. This is a fantastic place for a professional photographer to take couples for some group or intimate couple shots either on a pre-wedding shoot or on your wedding day. Especially as it’s right next to the Dudley Registry Office. A fabulous building that hosts many weddings throughout the year.
Himley Park is the home of Himley Hall, the principal home of Humble Ward who was the son of the jeweller to the court of King Charles I (yes – that guy who lost his head. So careless!). A photogenic Palladian Moated Manor House where you can get hitched and enjoy the rich history of the building and Himley Park grounds. It is a beautiful place for Photography and tells a wonderful story of its own history.
Looking for a secluded, intimate venue? Zoom in on Blakelands Country House. Located in Bobbington in the South Staffordshire countryside, this building dates back to 1722. Surrounded by walled gardens, paddocks, and orchards. It even has its own fishing lake. Ideal for fantastic photo shoots and I've filmed many weddings there over the years and know Paul the owner well.
Surrounding West Midlands areas such as Stourbridge, Sedgley and Kidderminster have a wealth of popular venues for couples to choose from.
As a wedding photographer, the elegance and grandeur of Hagley Hall in Worcestershire is truly a remarkable experience. This Georgian Palladian mansion, with its stunning architecture and beautifully landscaped parkland, provides an exquisite backdrop for any wedding. The historic charm of Hagley Hall, combined with its ornate interiors and expansive grounds, offers endless opportunities for creating breathtaking and timeless photographs. Each corner of the hall, from the grand staircase to the ornate staterooms, tells a story of elegance and sophistication, ensuring that every shot reflects the beauty and romance of your special day.
One of the highlights of photographing weddings at Hagley Hall is the variety of stunning settings available. The picturesque gardens, with their lush greenery and classical statues, are perfect for capturing intimate and candid moments. The grandeur of the Palladian architecture, both inside and out, adds a touch of regality to your wedding album. Whether it's a candid shot of the couple under the grand arches, a romantic moment by the lake, or a joyous celebration in the lavishly decorated reception hall, Hagley Hall offers a plethora of breathtaking scenes. As your wedding photographer, my goal is to ensure that precious moments are beautifully captured, creating a timeless collection of memories that you'll cherish forever.
Also in Stourbridge, close to Kinver, is Dunsley Hall. As a wedding photographer, I am captivated by Dunsley Hall's timeless charm and picturesque setting. This beautiful country house offers an idyllic backdrop with its lush gardens, historic architecture, and intimate ambience. Each wedding at Dunsley Hall is a unique experience, and I am dedicated to preserving every precious moment through creative and personalized photography. Let me help you create a lasting collection of memories at one of Kinver's most enchanting wedding venues.
Hogarths Stone Manor in Kidderminster is an absolute delight. This stunning Tudor-style hotel offers a picturesque backdrop with its beautifully manicured gardens, elegant interiors, and timeless architecture. Each wedding here is a unique and magical experience, from the romantic outdoor ceremonies to the grand receptions in the stylish banqueting suites. The natural beauty and historic charm of Hogarths Stone Manor provide endless opportunities for breathtaking photos that you'll cherish forever.
