Congratulations! the date is set and you are now making plans for your special day. There will be many things to consider to ensure that your wedding is unforgettable for yourselves, family and friends; choosing your attendants and bridesmaids, the dress, the suits, the venue, the cars, the colour scheme, flowers, the make-up and hairstyle, the music, the menu - not to mention the hen and stag weekends!
We hope through this website we will help to remove some of the mystique and confusion that surrounds "wedding photography" and hopefully encourage you to get in touch with us to arrange a free personal consultation where you can view our work, see and feel the exquisite albums, talk budgets and get to know us a little better.

At Barry James we believe it's you, the Bride & Groom who should be centre of attention on your wedding day - not the photographer. It is our job to capture the very essence of the day to provide an album full of memories of people, a little family history, moments of fun, happiness and emotion and the all important detail of the day, with plenty of natural relaxed images of the bride & groom as the story of your special day unfolds.
This is quite often the first question we are asked and without doubt one of the most difficult to answer because no two weddings are ever the same and no two brides want the same thing, every wedding is unique.
It's a little like trying to purchase your wedding dress blindfold and wearing gloves! - you need to see and feel - which is why we are always happy to spend some time with you to present our packages and coverages to you, and to explain how they fit in with your budget.

5* - Picked up our wedding photos and have to say they are beautiful! Thank you so much to Les and Stephen, the album is gorgeous and we will treasure it forever. Would definitely recommend, Les and Stephen are both lovely and know what they are doing - thanks again! We would like to thank Les from Barry James Photography for giving us the most beautiful memories to keep forever and ever of our special day.
My first wedding was in the late 1980's, Barry James launched full time in 1990, with my sons Stuart and Stephen joining the business in recent years. I haven't missed a wedding yet and do not intend to, however there are 3 photographers in my family, I have many local associates and we are members of a number of national organisations that we can call on for help if need be.
Over the last 20 years it has been our privilege to work at many stunning venues both at home and abroad; from Scottish Castles to country retreats, from Abbeys to city centre hotels frequented by the rich and famous, as well as the obligatory school and village hall! A number of venues feature regularly with us and a few of our favourites are highlighted in this pictorial section, who knows this may just help your search for your ideal venue.

Scott and I began to make our plans for our special day back in 2014. As with any wedding, having the memories of our day captured was certainly a priority therefore we began the search for our wedding photographer. We attended various wedding fayres and spoke to a few people offering a photography service. With the photography being so important to us, we wanted to insure that we went with the best person for the job. After viewing the portfolio presented to us by Barry James, it assured us that his 'contemporary, creative and candid' style of photography was exactly what we wanted. His work stood
