Hi! đ
My name is Antoni and Iâve been a professional wedding photographer for 7 years now, and I've had the privilege to attend 100âs of them. Iâm hugely passionate about what I do and I couldnât see myself doing anything else.
Photographer, Vegan Food Lover, Netflix watcher, Adventurer â My friends call me a lot of other things too but itâs probably a good idea not to repeat them here.
In my spare time, I love traveling and youâll often find me in weird and wonderful areas of the planet with a camera in hand! - Follow my personal Instagram if you want to see more of that! @Antoniwigley
I shoot mainly between Sheffield, Manchester & York, but I often shoot all over the UK and I'm sometimes lucky enough to get flown out for destination weddings!
Most of the weddings Iâm invited to... others are gate-crashed, and some I'm just there for the wedding cake â Either way, itâs always good fun!
For me, wedding photography is about telling a story, and to do that, there needs the smallest amount of interruption possible. Reportage, documentary, photojournalism, and Candid. However you word it, it's about capturing the moments that happen naturally. Moments that won't ever happen again. Moments that youâll look back at in years to come and will still evoke the same emotions you had when you were living them.
There are so many moments on a wedding day, that are missed because the âtraditionalâ photographer spends the entire day telling everyone to smile and coaxing horrendously cheesy grins out of people. I prefer to shoot the day as if I wasnât there at all. That way natural emotion, whether it be smiling, laughing, or crying, all happen without my influence. It will be a moment that will actually mean something to the person in the shot.
