Ian and Harriet married in Timperley at a church with significant family history, then spent the afternoon and evening at Cranage Hall. We turned up early to get those all-important ‘bride getting ready’ shots, and then spent some time with the groom and his boys before the ceremony. The whole thing was a bit nerve wracking, I think it’s safe to say I was more nervous than the bride and groom put together! Photographing a wedding is such a huge responsibility! The ceremony was perfect though; I could have easily put down my camera and had a little cry myself!

We spent time with them in the local park after the wedding, taking a breather, playing on the swings and round-about like big kids, then on to Cranage Hall for some photographs in the surroundings. Formal shots were mostly out of the window – Ian and Harriet were much more at ease just giggling and having fun with each other! Sounds like grounds for a great marriage!

After speech’s, food, drinks, cake cutting, dancing and more drinking, we took Ian and Harriet outside for some night shots, armed with a light from the studio. It was hilarious and a great end to a really lovely day. As for wedding photography…loved every second of it!!

I find it fantastic to see the studio space being used in other ways, shows how a professional can work his magic in any situation and location.

Last year I graduated from Salford University having studied Media, Ornithology and Enzyme Brewed Beverages. In a short space of time I’ve gained experience photographing Manchester music events, have participated in studio shoots and worked on film and music videos. The experience has enabled me to build a solid portfolio and reputation.

As a keen photographer/cinematographer, I look to capture special moments that last a lifetime. Over the course of the year I will be incorporating my creative and imaginative side in to my new role. As for aims, I’m looking to develop my design (word art wizard), editing skills (Photoshop magician), whilst working closely with existing and new clients.

FeelCreative are a fresh, vibrant, fun and growing company with great potential. It goes without saying that I’m really looking forward to becoming a valued team member and look forward to being part of it for years to come.

Anyway, we went to a house in Woodford which had literally been ripped right back down to its bare shell, redesigned, extended and extended again (even the garden had been extended!) to create an impressive family home.

The wow factor for me was the balcony on the back, which was the master bedroom. I have to admit when I photographed that room I imagined myself lying in the bed waking up to that view every day!

The family who live here have actually been photographed in our studio…spot the photography on the walls of their lounge!

We have been creating word art for many years and it has always been a very popular choice.  We’ve seen poems and meaningful song lyrics to trips around the world, book quotes and wedding vows.

Since the launch of our new website we have been working on popular themed styles for you to choose from. You can visit our word art page and order your own here.

All our styles are designed for you to customise the text and colour scheme to suit your home and special occasion. We can go as bespoke at you like though; if you have an idea, or simply a bunch of words you would like us to do something with, just send them our way and we’ll send you back some ideas. We can even colour match to suit a particular wallpaper, paint or pan from your kitchen!

Once you have chosen your design we print it onto your choice of media. We hand make all our canvases and picture frames in our studio in Didsbury, Manchester, so you can be sure it is finished to the highest standard. Choose from a contemporary canvas print or have your artwork framed in one of our popular black, white, wood or vintage frames.

Create a piece of art perfect to remember the big day by. Wedding word art makes a great alternative gift for the happy couple, a bit more personal than a toaster!

Choose to either frame or print your word art onto canvas, each resulting in a striking piece of art ready to hang on your wall.

Create a family tree using all the names from your family (don’t forget your pets!), then add all your likes, hobbies, birthdays and any quirky information you can think of.

Create an impact with memories from travels, holidays or just life so far!

Arrange your favourite places in the style of an old bus blind, they look great in black and white, but you can choose any colour when designing your own.

Word art for babies and children (and adults too!) are extremely popular, and make for great gifts, whether after their birth, on their Christening day or their 18th birthday!
