AWARD WINNING

Being British, it’s always hard to bring yourself to talk about your achievements and it’s something we aren’t very good at doing.

However, I can’t deny I’m very proud of some of the achievements my images and business have won over the last few years. Being an award-winning wedding photographer is something I’m proud of and makes me want to keep creating beautiful storytelling images & epic portraits that catch people’s eye. Here are a few of the awards I’ve won.

Fearless Photographer Award

FEARLESS PHOTOGRAPHY AWARDS

These bad boys are a real joy to win. With over 20,000 images submitted for each round, bagging a Fearless award is a tough one. Every round of awards sees some of the biggest names in our industry winning, so to be among them is absolutely awesome. Ive also bagged a couple of “Photo of the Week” images too.

West Midlands Wedding Photographer Winners Award

The Wedding Industry Awards

The Wedding Industry Awards are the biggest wedding industry awards event in the UK and they champion pretty much every kind of wedding supplier. From Tipi suppliers to stationary and everything in between. In 2022 I won the Wedding Photographer of the Year award at the West-Midlands event which blew my mind. I’ve also had the pleasure of being Highly Commended on five separate occasions too (the most recent being the 2024 awards). The photography category is usually the busiest of the night, so to get that honour is fantastic. What makes this award so special is that it is voted for by previous wedding couples and industry experts together.

THIS IS REPORTAGE AWARDS

It’s been great to be named amongst the top 100 wedding photographers by This is Reportage. These awards celebrate the unposed and unstaged documentary wedding photography that I love to shoot. Portraits are great and creating “wall hanging” images are obviously fun, but the natural, unpredictable candid moments are what keeps my photography fresh. Getting recognised for that is awesome.

gohen – top 50 UK Wedding photographer

It’s such a great honour to be named in the top 50 UK Wedding Photographers of 2022, 2023 & now 2024 by GoHen. So nice to be featured alongside some great photographers here.

MORE THAN AWARDS

On top of the awards, I’ve had some fantastic wedding industry blogs showcase my weddings. As you can imagine, these blogs get 1000’s of submissions and it’s fantastic to have had weddings featured on Rock My WeddingWhimsical Wonderland Wedding Blog, Boho Bride, The English Wedding BlogMens Vows and more.

As cool as awards sound and I would be lying if I said winning the odd one here and there didn’t give me a little ego boost, the best seal of approval is the testimonials of my couples. It’s these kind words that hopefully show just how much I love what I do and put everything into each wedding. Check out my google reviews for words that really matter from my awesome couples.
