LAID-BACK PHOTOGRAPHY, TAKEN WITH A SMILE
PAUL PHIPPS-WILLIAMS
A UK WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER IN THE JEWELLERY QUARTER, BIRMINGHAM
FOR GLORIOUS GEEKS, QUEER HEROES AND CAMERA-SHY SUPERSTARS
Laid-back photography...for Glorious Geeks!
You're someone who takes joy in the outlandish and fun, with an imagination that sparks excitement and danger. If you've a wedding inspired by your passion, then get in touch. I'm a photographer who'll geek out with you and your mates, share secrets from our favourite shows and make everyone smile when they least expect it.
Plus, I'm fairly sure I'm the only wedding photographer around with a giant tattoo of Billie Piper from Doctor Who...


Laid-back photography...for Queer Heroes!
I love my Queer Heroes. I know from personal experience what it's like to stand in front of your natural and chosen families and declare your love for each other to the entire world.
If you're planning an LGBTQ+ celebration and you want a wedding photographer that just 'gets it', then give me a call. If you're in the Birmingham area, I can offer tea, cake and possibly a chance to make friends with two cats named after Batman.
Laid-back photography...for Camera-Shy Superstars!
I'll let you into a secret. I hate having my photo taken. But so do most people I know. I like to think of myself as a photographer for people who hate having their photo taken.
Each wedding I take comes with its own pre-wedding shoot. A chance to get relaxed and learn all the hints and tips to make you look like a pro. Laid-back photography means just that. No pressure, just fun and natural smiles.

If you want a relaxed wedding, then a laid-back photography package will be just right for you.
You're a couple who likes to have fun. You want a relaxed day, full of laughter, and a photographer who'll make your guests shine.
I like to think of myself as a photographer for people who don't like photographers. Someone who knows the importance of tea and cake before the camera's brought out - because 99% of a good photographer is being relaxed and comfortable. Someone you can trust with your wedding day, because I'll be there bringing the best out of your guests.
There's absolutely no obligation when you get in touch. We'll have a chat about what you've in mind for your day, and how I can help. If you're local I'll buy you a cup of coffee and you can choose if I'm the right person to trust with your wedding.
The concept of 'laid-back photography, taken with a smile' starts from that first phone call, zoom, or cup of tea - so if that sounds like it'll match your style you can contact me using one of the boxes below.
There's something for everyone. Get more for your money with a pre-wedding shoot - an opportunity to have a giggle, become naturals in front of the camera and get some wonderful portraits that are brilliant for save the dates, countdowns and signing books. Think of it as practice - you'll feel so much more relaxed on your wedding day. If you want something extra-special, we can build an 'Ultimate' package for you, with albums, wall art or prints for all the family.
For both your pre-wedding shoot and your wedding day itself you'll get an extra special video that highlights the best of your portraits. Have a look at an example below, to see if you'd like me to capture your special day.
