Thank you for visiting my website I am Worcestershire based photographer John Colson and I provide elegant and natural documentary style wedding photography throughout Worcestershire, Birmingham and the West Midlands. I have been photographing weddings for a good number of years now. My Images are intended to record your day in a refined and elegant documentary based style.
I don't try to force things to happen - it's your special day after all and beautiful moments will occur of their own accord. I don't look to overly pose people or create images that don't feel natural. I don't go to every event with a list of the same images that I take every time. Every day is unique and I want your photographs to be just that.

My Wedding Photography is intended to record your day in a refined documentary based style. Whether it is a wedding closer to home in the Midlands or further afield I simply want my images to reflect the love, romance, joy and beauty of your wedding day. I want to capture those special moments spent with family and friends.
I have photographed many UK and Destination weddings as well as weddings closer to home in Worcestershire, Birmingham and the West Midlands and it is often very difficult to decide which not to include. So here are some more!.
I hope the images in both of my Galleries, together with those elsewhere on my site give a good indication of my style and way of working, as well as showing a wide range of wedding photographs in varying conditions and at different times of the year.Please take some time to check out my work and if you like what you see, please don't hesitate to get in touch!

A few of my wonderful clients have been kind enough to write to me following receipt of their wedding photographs. Here are a few (ok, a lot) of the lovely testimonials I have received over the years. John was our wedding photographer and did an amazing job, firstly you won't meet a nicer bloke - honest, hardworking and sociable.
I'm very lucky to live on the borders of the gorgeous Wyre Forest in Worcestershire, so it would be quite easy for me to stay put in my local area, but I adore travelling. Yes, where possible I consider it absolutely essential that we meet before the wedding day. Obviously it may not be geographically possible to meet on occasion (this is especially relevant to destination weddings).
I'm super happy to offer Family Photoshoots. None of that stuffy stand in front of a white background in your Sunday best and grin type nonsense. Lets go for a stroll in a local park and take some photos that actually mean something. Well now you can! I've been all sorts of clever and set up an online 'egiftcard' store.

From the first few minutes of speaking with John we knew he was the photographer that we wanted for our Wedding! Not only is John a very friendly, kind and down to earth person he is also extremely talented and conscientious and nothing was too much trouble, he also has a natural eye for capturing the most perfect moments on camera.
We usually hate being photographed but John made us feel so comfortable and relaxed and he worked in a way that we did not even really realise he was there.
John kept in contact with us in the months leading up to our wedding and really got to know us and we found

John helped us out when we were photographer-less amidst the pandemic - being flexible and really accommodating throughout each re-schedule. John is professional, easy to get along with and a very natural photographer - perfect and just what we wanted! Each picture taken was with care and artistically well thought out. Thank you so much for making our wedding day extra special. We can't wait wait to book you again for the reception. The Coleman's

We used John for our wedding. Having just had the photos through we could not recommend him enough. He captures the perfect natural shots which really told the story of our day and we are eternally grateful. He’s also a great guy and really easy to have around. Honestly couldn’t recommend him more!
Many thanks

John was a brilliant photographer. In the run up to the day he met with us and discussed everything in detail so we could just relax. In the best way, we hardly noticed him all day! He captured so many beautiful, little, natural moments. If you want an authentic, unposed photographic memory of your day don't hesitate to book John.

John was our wedding photographer and did an amazing job, firstly you won't meet a nicer bloke - honest , hardworking and sociable. He did such an amazing job at our wedding and honestly I cannot heap enough praise on the job he did for us. The wedding photos arrived today and the quality and artistry are amazing, natural shots of our beautiful venue, friends and family. We have these to cherish the rest of our lives. Thank you very much John for making our special day perfect.

John was brilliant as the photographer for our wedding! Many of our guests commented about what a great guy John was to be around.
He made sure that we spent as much time as possible with our guests enjoying the day. All while capturing some amazing shots that we continue to enjoy. John stuck around a bit later because he was excited about the sunset, and he clearly has a passion for what he does.
We would highly recommend John for any occasion. He was one of the best decisions we made!

Cannot thank John enough for being a part of our special day. He put our minds at rest instantly and joined in with all our madness! Extremely friendly and professional throughout. We love all our pictures, we are not generally a photogenic couple, but love how John has captured lots of natural pictures from the whole day. So So glad you agreed to work with us :)

We cannot express how amazing John is at his art and what incredible pictures we now have to remember our wedding by, for years to come! From the moment we met him he made us feel at ease with having our pictures taken and on the day, we hardly knew he was there!! The final product of his wonderful talent is nothing short of beautiful! We are so incredibly happy with ALL of our pictures, and can't recommend John enough!!
