Matt Pate Cheshire Wedding Photographer

How do you choose your photographer for

the biggest of celebrations - your wedding?

It’s a big decision, especially when there’s so much choice. After all, there’s only one chance to get it right, to spot and capture those extra-special and often so easily missed moments that will bring back the best memories for you and tell the story of your big day for generations to come.

Matt Pate is an experienced Cheshire Wedding Photographer specialising in natural wedding photography around Chester, Cheshire, Liverpool & North Wales

Does your wedding photographer love what he does or is it just a job?

Wedding photography
is a massive responsibility and a huge privilege. It's my passion.

I love the challenge, the creativity and most of all, I love the delight on the faces of my clients and their friends and families when they see the results.

Do you trust and like them?
Can you work with them?

For the very best results, I believe there has to be a relationship between the wedding couple and their photographer.

There needs to be trust and confidence, understanding – and a helping of mutual liking and respect! I’m easy to work with, I’m flexible and I’m unobtrusive.

Do you like their style and approach?

My Wedding Photography is all about quality.

For me, wedding photography isn’t just about recording an event in pictures, it’s about telling a story, capturing both the expected and unexpected, naturally, creatively – and with personality and a ready smile. It’s all about seeing detail, spotting the unexpected and making the most of every opportunity at every stage of the day.

Rosie & Jon

Matt was absolutely brilliant from the moment we met him. We had an engagement shoot with Matt and he also came to our wedding party. His relaxed and funny style makes you feel instantly calm and makes the whole process thoroughly enjoyable. At our party, Matt worked tirelessly and our guests loved him. He added a different dimension to the party and I am delighted with his work. He managed to capture real life action and fun, seemlessly, without staging anything. I would highly recommend using Matts service.

Georgia & Jason

Absolutely can recommend Matt as a photographer for all special occasions. He met with us before our wedding day which helped us to be at ease and all pictures and sessions were fab. We even managed to do Chester Clock pics at midday on busy Saturday! Thank you so much for all your work! Karolina and James
