Michael Wilkinson
North-East Wedding Photographer
So this is me! The man behind the lens, the button pusher, the creative thinker. I'm Just a fun loving, family man, trying to make his way in life.
​
Married to Kaye in 2015, we had our first child, Isla in 2016 and completed our little family in 2020 when Jack arrived. When I'm not photographing weddings, you'll find me in Wales or the Lake District photographing landscapes and Aviation. I love Music, Films, Holidays and getting a buzz from Sky Diving and Bungee Jumping!
Natural + Bold
Welcome to the world of natural and bold photography, where every click tells a unique story. I am Michael Wilkinson, an experienced freelance photographer with a passion for preserving life's most cherished memories. Based in Hartlepool, I work as a full time photographer in the Wedding, Event and Product Industries, creating timeless imagery that speaks volumes.
Being based in Teesside, I have easy access to venues in Northumberland, Durham and North Yorkshire. Whilst the majority of my work comes from these areas, you will find me further afield when the opportunity arises including Destination weddings.
​
Whether it's a couple's special day, a corporate/family event, or a product that
deserves to shine, I'm dedicated to creating images that stand the test of time. So, welcome to my world of bold photography, where each image tells a story as unique as the region I call home.
A Glimpse into My Journey
With a career spanning over 15 years, I bring a wealth of experience to the art of photography. I'm not just a photographer; I'm a storyteller who uses a camera as a tool to narrate beautiful tales. My photography journey has been filled with breathtaking landscapes, loving couples, and extraordinary products.
I started my photographic journey back in Art School at Cleveland College of Art & Design. I studied a Foundation Degree specialising in photography before moving onto degree level. I enjoyed spending time in the dark room, developing film and prints before the world of digital photography took over. I have enjoyed working with digital cameras and watching them evolve into the modern day beasts they have become.
