we are David + Jane AKA

the STANBURY’S

Best Cheshire Wedding Photographers & Filmmakers

When looking for Best Wedding Photographers & Filmmakers for your wedding day its easy to get lost and what actually makes a photographer & filmmaker the best? Is it awards, is it recommendations & experience? We feel its a mixture of all of these.
As experienced wedding photographers & filmmakers we have been blessed to work at some of the best Cheshire Wedding Venues and many of the best Lake District Wedding Venues that are all local to us but we also can be found photographing weddings from Scotlands Best Wedding Venues to Londons Best Wedding Venues and further afield.

Anyway let us introduce ourselves….

Hi, We Are The STANBURY’S

Huge Congratulations…

On your engagement and thanks for dropping in. We are David & Jane and we are also married, hence The Stanbury’s.. well thats who we are.

Where do you start, well they say opposites attract and we are living proof of this….
Jane is a massive Elvis fan and David loves indie music, Jane loves Harley Davidson motorbikes and David loves Lambrettas, Jane before photography was a time served mechanic and David….. well lets say he wasnt.


We first met at school and have 3 children who have been well & truly photographed, after photography our other love is traveling; especially to experience different cultures & cuisines around the world but love nothing more than a chippy tea.


Our photography business started over 30 years ago out of our love for photography & the perfect image, but over the years our need to be creative, to tell stories with our cameras grew so much that the business turned into what it is today….. our life!

WE LOVE A GOOD WEDDING!

best-cheshire-wedding-photographers-stanbury-photography

We have been so privileged to have been doing what we love for over 30 years and blessed to have photographed over 1700 weddings to date and have many wonderful memories, in fact the best bit of our amazing job is the laughter we hear & the friends we make. We have been blessed to have witnessed couples say ‘I do’ in some of the most stunning locations, from ceremonies in boutique city hotels to on the side of a mountain in the French alps, a stunning Villa on the Amalfi Coast in Italy and on a beautiful beach in Sri Lanka.


Its also an honour to have collected many awards & qualifications, most importantly being one of a small group of photographers holding a triple Fellowship qualification & at the National Photography Awards receiving the honour of UK Wedding Photographer of the Year & UK Best Wedding Album of the Year.


We are people people, we love people, we love to chat, socialise and make new friends everywhere we go, what makes us most proud are the many comments from couples and their family & friends of how friendly and helpful we were on their wedding day; but at the end of the day what really makes us tick is telling the story, with our cameras, of when two peoples lives change forever that makes the hairs on the back of our neck stand up and puts a smile on our faces. D&J xx

It was worth every penny to be able to have these precious memories forever.

Cheshire – Lake District – Scotland
Wedding Photography By The Stanbury’s

As Award Winning Photographers we have been specialising in Authentic, Emotive & Editorial wedding photography for over 30 years predominately at the Best Cheshire wedding venues such as Combermere Abbey, Colshaw Hall, Peckforton Castle and Iscoyd Park but being based in Greater Manchester means we are close to Ashfield House Hotel and with close links to best Lake District wedding venues such as Langdale Chase Hotel, Inn on the Lake, Merewood House and Town Head Estate on the banks of Lake Windermere.
Our location means we are only a short journey to those countryside luxury stately house and exclusive best London wedding venues such as One Whitehall, Babington House, Hedsor House and Old Marlebone Town Hall.
Photographing weddings in Scotland is always a privilege especially at best Scottish wedding venues like Duns Castle, Auchen Castle and kinmount House. As a wedding photographer in Scotland we love when couples fly from around the world eg: America and Asia for elopement wedding photography or from the UK wanting that little bit of Scottish tradition.
Getting married abroad then no problem we have photographed many destination weddings and elopement weddings. As experienced destination wedding photographers we have the knowledge of working at wedding venues. As an Italy Wedding Photographer we have photographed weddings in Villa Cora in Florence, Villa Eva in Ravello and many other exclusive wedding venues in Italy, Spain, France and as far as Sri Lanka.
