Hello I am Frank Wood an experienced Birmingham wedding photographer covering the top wedding venues this glorious second city has to offer. Being born in Birmingham, and having lived here for most of my life, I know the city well. Birmingham is a wonderful city and has a rich cultural heritage, and a very proud industrial heritage.
This proud history has provided us a fabulous architectural legacy giving us a great variety of wedding venues from Digbeth's Custard Factory with its grungy, cool graffitied streets to beautiful and intimate stately homes such as Highbury Hall and Berrow Court. I'm extremely fortunate to be a professional wedding photographer serving such an interesting location in the UK.

I've been into photography for as long as I can remember but began shooting as a professional photographer in 2012. Before being a photographer I worked as a teacher in maths and English. Outside photography I love music and I sing in a choir, I play the piano and I enjoy going to concerts. I'm a bit of a foodie and love eating out - I love being fed fabulous food at weddings - a real perk of the job!
It is important for you to think about what approach you would like from your photographer. If you are looking for photographs of predominantly naturally occurring moments, unposed, I am likely to have the approach that will suit your taste in wedding photography. I like to work as a photojournalist who observes the events and moments of the day.
My fees reflect the fact that I am a full time professional photographer dedicated to providing you with a high quality documented story of your day. I aim to capture the real moments - the emotions, the reactions of yourselves and guests, the humour and fun. Over time we gradually forget the details of what has happened so our photographs form our memory of how we felt and what was important to us on the day.
If you are investing in a wedding album you are investing in a family legacy. Families treasure old photographs, beautifully presented. I only wish my grandparents had had a wedding album as individual photographs often fade or can be easily lost. I provide both Italian and English hand-crafted albums in a range of sizes, covers and pages.
Capture the special moments of your wedding day. The colours, traditions and the emotions you share on the day can never be recreated. Natural and relaxed photography that focuses on real moments will tell your story. You don't want to spend time on unnatural posing as this takes up too much valuable time when you should be living every moment of your wedding and enjoying being with each other and your guests.

We’ve recently celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary and have been going back through the beautiful photographs which Frank took of our wedding day.
Frank’s style is so relaxed - and he captured every moment perfectly which took us right back.
We were particularly impressed with Frank’s professionalism and the fact that he went the extra mile to ensure that he’d captured the perfect pictures. Even when we got in touch with him recently with a query about our photographs (Some 5 years later!) he was more than happy to help.
Highly recommended.

If you’re in need of an incognito wedding photographer who truly captures those special moments as they’re happening, Frank is absolutely your go to guy! Frank was highly recommended to us for our wedding in July 2018 and from our first meeting, where he invited us to his home and shared snippets of his previous work, we knew that he would capture our day perfectly. And was the one!
To prepare us for the big day we booked a pre-wedding shoot - Frank recommended a beautiful national trust, Coughton Park, where he had scoped out the area and took some amazing in scene photos of the two of us

Frank was the photographer for our wedding in April. The end result was a wonderful album that we are both delighted with. The album is an amazing visual record of what was a truly special day for us both and tells the story of the day very well.
From the very beginning, Frank’s communication was excellent, really friendly and easy going but clearly someone who knows his stuff inside and out. On our first meeting he went through all of our options and there was absolutely no pressure to make specific choices, just really good advice based on his experience.

Right, where do I start........After researching wedding photographers online me and my now wife came across Franks website and his fantastic photo portfolio. After meeting Frank for coffee and discussing our plans, we were quickly reassured that Frank was no amateur. It was clear he had everything covered, including intricacies of the process we hadn't even considered. Frank had a clearly defined style which appealed to us and had some fun stories about the lengths he had gone to, to creatively capture the perfect moment for some of his previous clients. It was this passion for photography that

Hi Frank, Just want to say the biggest THANKYOU from Phil and I for photographing our wedding!
You couldn't do enough and were discreet and professional throughout. We love every single one of our images and with both of us being in the industry it goes without saying that choosing the perfect man for the job was imperative!
Hope to work with you again in the future! Lisa x

Frank Wood is an innovative and talented photographer and I would recommend him without any reservation. My partner and I were absolutely delighted with the results of a recent shoot; he directed us with humour and the resulting photos covered the perfect range of classic and arty. Exactly what we wanted.
