Stephen Gormley Photography – Nottingham Wedding and Portrait Photographer bio picture

Welcome!

Hi,

I am a photographer based in Nottinghamshire and I specialise in wedding photography and family lifestyle portraiture.  My aim is to create beautiful images of people by keeping them relaxed and unposed.  With weddings this is most important to me, capturing an observational record of the day with a splash of stylish bride and groom portraits!

Here I'll be sharing some of my favourite images, wedding stories, news and a little of my family from time to time.  Be sure to visit regularly and feel free to post any comments you have!
