MY APPROACH

A photo of fabio sat on a charge, a yorkshire wedding photographer

Why me?

You’re probably overwhelmed with the choice of wedding photographers out there!

And while we all take great photos, finding someone who truly fits your personalities and style is where the real headaches begin.

I’m all about having fun (and lots of it!). Be prepared for a bit of p**s taking thought and light hearted banter but always on hand to take amazing photos!

I pride myself on delivering an experience that you will look back on and remember. 

I want to part of the fun, not just an accessory to it.”


If you want to dig deeper in to my personality – my TikTok is a great place to start! (Apologies in advance for what you may see!)

1Let's have fun!

Laughter is the best medicine — and the secret to the best photos. I don’t want you to be bored on your big day. My goal is to get the job done while we have a laugh, and trust me… I’m probably the least serious person you’ll meet.

If you want someone serious – i’m probably not the best fit!

2Paw-tographer

Dogs are usually my favourite guests, no offence to your family! If you have a pooch that’s your pride and joy, or any animal for that matter, furry friends are always a pleasure.

As a fellow dog owner, I know you’ll want more photos of the pup than your partner — I’ve got you covered! 🐾

3Be My Guest

How many weddings have you been to where you have no recollection of the photographer? That’s not me. . I love when your guests feel they can call on me any time they want a photo.



If your guests are still referring to me at the end of the day as “The Photographer” instead of “Fabio” then I’ve failed

4The dream team

Bridesmaids and groomsmen are often some of my favourite shots to have fun with. Lighting smoke grenades, spraying prosecco, fighting for the bouquet, or even launching the groom – it’s all a yes from me!

5The couple shots

I’m 5% posed/95% candid

And i work fast too, your couple photos will never stem longer than 20 minutes! If there is a nice sunset later i may drag you back out for another 10 minutes later but for me its about ensuring you enjoy the day and getting all those important photos at the same time with no expense spared! 

5% Posed + 95%  Candid = 100% Simple

 

6Relaxed and simple

No one is a fan of posing, and the idea of a photoshoot makes people feel uneasy!

I keep it fun, simple and relaxed and before you know it you will feel like a pro, no one has every come away feeling awkward. Infact most people say that wasn’t as bad as i thought!

7Not just a photographer

I want your day to be the best it can be — and that goes way beyond photos. From reattaching veils to making announcements (and even fetching tampons), I’m your on-the-spot problem-solver. I’ll keep things running smoothly, give the venue a polite nudge if needed, and make sure they know what matters most to you.

My couples’ day is always my top priority — and I’ve saved more than a few near-disasters!

8Keep it candid

I like to blend in with the guests to grab every moment in its natural form, telling the true story of your day.

Engaging with your family and friends helps everyone to relax around the camera. Getting them to be themselves is where I shine.

9Militant and fast

My plan of action going into group shots is efficiency – maximum combinations in minimum time. I’m not afraid to wrangle your guests to get you back to your prosecco ASAP.

Family shots area always the longest chore but overtime ive learnt to get these done in record time by being a little militant and fast! but my goal is to get you back to your wedding before you know it.

I’m all about ensuring the photos dont dominate your day without compromising on quality and quantity. 

10My CV

My reviews speak for themselves (just check them out below!) — with over 400 weddings under my belt and years of experience, I’ve pretty much seen it all.

I’m all about being fast and fun while keeping your day running smoothly. My aim is to make the whole experience light-hearted, enjoyable, and completely stress-free — never a chore you’ll dread looking back on.

What a dream Fabio was to have capture of special day last month. From the moment he arrived in the morning he was the upmost professional and so organised. Nothing was to much for him and he put 110% effort in to get the perfect shots. His personality on the day and the energy he brought made him a dream to work with and a hit with all our guests. Even with the great British weather we got the amazing outdoor pics we wanted. What made him extra special for us was how amazing he was at capturing our dog. Would 100% recommend Fabio and was worth every penny. We have the best memories to look back on thanks to him. Thank you, Nat and Beth ❤️

We honestly couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer. Fabio is an amazing person and worth every single penny. He was completely dedicated to getting the best shots of our day—efficient, focused, and so easy to work with. Even when Storm Amy decided to make an appearance, he didn’t let anything get in the way of capturing the magic. He got everyone outside for sparklers, somehow managed to grab incredible photos despite my veil taking a tour of the Ripponden Valley, and still made everything feel effortless. Fabio was unbelievably quick with the family photos, which meant our day flowed perfectly without interruption. The candid moments he captured are absolutely fantastic—beautiful, natural shots that we will cherish forever. They let us relive parts of the day we didn’t even get to see. I genuinely can’t recommend him enough. Choosing Fabio was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding. Thank you Fabio ❤️

We are so grateful to have found Fabio, hands down the best photographer ever and the funniest person. From the moment we booked him, he went above and beyond, helping us with planning pretty much the whole day (which he didn’t even have to do!), making sure we hadn’t forgot anything and called us a week or so before the wedding to confirm everything. Fabio is exactly how he is pre wedding, on the wedding day and post wedding, such a hype man, hilarious and just the most talented person. He worked perfectly with our videographers, matched the bridal party’s verbal abuse, and felt like someone we’d known forever. Every single guest we spoke to couldn’t stop raving about how amazing he was. Fabio sent us sneak peek shots, THE NEXT MORNING, and just to put this into context our ceremony was at 11.30am (Fabio was at the venue well before this snapping photos of the morning) and was there well into the night do! In every single photo Fabio captured our relationship perfectly and there is not one photo where I feel as though anything is staged, or that was a fake smile because Fabio had us laughing throughout the whole day. Fabio is truly one of a kind, hilarious, ridiculously talented, and just the best energy to have around on the wedding day. We couldn’t love him more if we tried. If you’re lucky enough to get a date with him, BOOK HIM IMMEDIATELY, or please message me and I will absolutely harass you to book him! All our love Fabio, Ash and Shaq x

What can I say, Fabio you made our wedding! Your professionalism and attention to detail is second to none, you had the patience of a saint to capture the best shots and round my bridal party up! Your humour made us feel at ease and belly laugh all day and night!! You helped with setting up, getting me in my dress, and calming everyone’s nerves. From the moment I booked you, you were helping with recommendations and were unbelievably kind and supportive over a situation with one of my bridesmaids falling very poorly during the build up which meant we moved the venue and changed the wedding, you are a wonderful person and talented photographer, EVERYONE needs you for their special day ! can not recommend you enough and thank you for everything ♥️

We would absolutely recommend Fabio as your wedding photographer. He captured our special day back in September and we are absolutely thrilled with the images he took. Neither of us are particularly comfortable in front of camera but he made sure the images were natural and we felt at ease all day long. He was fantastic with our guests and his experience was clear from the outset. He is also more than just a photographer- he gave us great advice about other parts of the day, made himself available during the planning stages for questions and advice and went above and beyond on the day itself. He brought the energy and had a laugh with us from start to finish. We are so glad we chose Fabio!

Wow, what a photographer and person Fabio is ✨ We met him last year when he photographed my sisters wedding and as soon as we had spent the day with him, we knew we had to have him photograph our wedding. He really is a ball of energy, a massive laugh with top banter. He is so easy going, so driven to get the best photos, and so passionate about what he does, we cannot sing his praises enough. He captures the most amazing photos and every single one shows so much emotion. His photography skills and editing skills are amazing and he really is a top guy. We cannot thank you enough for bringing such good vibes and laughter to our wedding and for giving us the best photos. If your thinking of who to book, book Fabio - we may even renew our vows just so we can have him photograph us again 🤣

Absolutely amazing! Every time I look at our wedding photographs the biggest smile comes on my face! When we first got engaged Fabios page popped on to my Instagram feed and from then I was hooked. I loved the energy he brought and the images he took are full of love and laughter and that’s exactly what we got! He embraced all our crazy ideas from the ‘first touch’ in the morning to the photo dash in the evening. He made our ideas come to life and helped us pull them off seamlessly. Everyone who has spoken to us about our wedding has said how amazing Fabio was and they loved the energy he brought to the day. Thank you so much Fabio for capturing our special day!

Well where do I Evan start, Fabio & his second shooter Dave were phenomenal, from start to finish, They arrived very promptly and just got straight to it, from getting the first getting ready pictures right up to 10pm! Couldn’t believe how late they stayed, I’m not a posey person at all and Fabio was totally fine with that taking raw candid photos all throughout the day, and he Evan sent me some sneak peak pictures 12hours later!! And Evan filmed me a little shot of my kids walking down the aisle so I could see , as I didn’t have a videographer, literally next level 🥰 Aswell as that his personality is second to none, From dealing with me stressing a couple of time, to carrying my belongings and dealing with my sisters (MOH) very dry sense of humour all day! 🤣 He was amazing and I’m sooo happy I chose Fabio to capture our day, can’t wait to get all our pictures back 🫶🏻

Fabio did an incredible job photographing our wedding, putting us at ease ahead and on the day, which really helped get natural and relaxed photos. Really glad we went with him - a real pleasure!

FAQ

Most frequent questions and answers

Aside from the fast turn around of your photos and my natural style of photographs, my fun personality makes it easy for people to enjoy themselves around me. To get the best, most relaxed photos, I want the guests to know me as “Fabio” and not just “the photographer”.

I like to be part of the day and not just an accessory to it, and being 100% approachable just makes it easy for the guests to grab me when they want a photo too.

For the couple shots, I lean away from the stiff awkward posing and instead, let the couples be themselves and just have fun–  after all, those photos are always the best. Whilst I may pose you for some, my style is mainly focused on the natural, “you being you” photos.

I like to treat a wedding as exactly what it is… your special day, not just any other day taking photographs, so I give 200% every time.

I like to hang around a little after the first dance as well, just to make sure I capture the busy dancefloor antics before the evening buffet drops!

Via an online gallery.

You will receive a direct link to your own special gallery where all your images are hosted. This makes it simple to share with all your friends.

From here you can also order prints if you wish to, and you are also able to hide certain images from your guests that you might wish to keep private.

I try to be flexible and accommodate any delays on the day, as we know weddings don’t always run on time! Rest assured, I will never dash off without making sure I have all the key photos if things become delayed.

I make every effort to attend a wedding, it would have to be an unavoidable emergency or serious illness for me to let you down. But if the worst happens, I have a trusted network of photographers and between us we all cover each other in emergencies.

I am based in Halifax (HX1) but I am happy to travel around 2-3 hours away.

Up to two hours’ travel is included in your pricing.

Outside of two hours’ travel will incur a small fee depending on the distance and if a hotel is required, but I will ensure you are aware of this before any chats or discussions. 

 

Every single photo is edited. Nothing will be added to your gallery unedited in some way.

Of course! Ideally I would suggest a zoom first to save us both some time, and if you want to meet in person after the zoom, we can meet either at the venue or at your house. Whatever works for you.

Sneak peeks land within 24 hours of the wedding, and your full gallery follows in two to four weeks. The contract says four to give me some breathing room in peak season, but I aim to have them with you sooner than that.

A hot meal is always appreciated but never expected.

All I ask is that you let me know either way so I know whether to bring something with me.

Venues usually offer supplier meals at a reduced rate.

A deposit of £125 secures the date, and the remainder balance is payable four weeks before the big day.

In special circumstances, I can be flexible.

Normally, no — and that is on purpose. A visit months in advance is not a true reflection of your wedding day: the weather changes, the grass turns boggy, something moves and blocks the shot I had planned.

What works far better is turning up 30 minutes to an hour early on the day itself and reading the venue as it actually is. After 400+ weddings I can size a place up quickly.

If I have never shot there and it happens to be local, I might call in anyway — and if you would genuinely feel better knowing I had been, just say and we will sort it.

I always have three cameras, multiple flashes, multiple memory cards and multiple lenses with me on the day.

Weddings are a once in a lifetime memory and they deserve the ultimate contingency plan.

Firstly, let’s check the date is free by filling out an enquiry form. 

If the date is free then we can have a quick zoom or phone call to say hello! I like to have a chat with couples before they book to check I’m what you are after. You need to feel 100% comfortable to get the most on your wedding day! 

This chat comes with zero pressure to make a decision– I would rather you take your time to be completely happy.

If you wish to go ahead, then get back in touch and you will receive a booking contract for peace of mind, and I would need a deposit of £125 to secure the date.
