Yorkshire Wedding Photographer Bethany Clarke – A decade as an international photojournalists is the perfect background to become your wedding photographer. 2024 will be my 15th year as a professional Wedding Photographer- I have captured over 500 weddings and still believe that I have the best job in the world !

It’s surprising how many people feel uncomfortable in front of the camera. My subtle and candid approach lets you enjoy every moment of your day without it feeling like a photo shoot.
My story-telling wedding photography will transport you back to relive your wedding day for years to come.
Fly on the Wall Wedding Photography
What do I mean when I say Fly on the wall Wedding Photography? I always photograph my couples in a very natural way, nothing staged or forced. Your images should really reflect you & your day.
I am by nature a very observant person – The most important part of my job as a Wedding Photographer is to observe and always being on the lookout for moments to capture. Sometimes this is the loudest laugh in the room, sometimes it’s the most intimate and emotional moments. I want your wedding photos to transport you back to the day, not only remaining you what it looked like but how if felt.
2023 Wedding Photography

A special a mini adventure getting to know the Bride & Groom, watch their emotions and meet there loved ones through heartfelt documentary photographs of their special day. I honestly feel like I have the best job in the world.
