Steve Oatway is passionate about wedding photography and loves photographing all of the beautiful, emotional moments as your Big Day unfolds. Steve has photographed weddings as far afield as Iowa, USA, and as close to home as Epworth, with several places inbetween, inlcuding the Lake District, Manchester and Leeds.
Steve's wedding photography mostly takes place throughout Lincolnshire, Yorkshire and Humberside, such as in York, Lincoln and the Isle of Axholme, but he is more than happy to travel further to create your perfect wedding.
Steve's approach to wedding photography is relaxed and contemporary; he prides himself on capturing the heart-warming emotion of the day, as well as the little details such as shoes and jewellery. From the rush of the preparations to the solemnity of the ceremony, every detail will be captured. Steve always goes the extra mile to keep your day (and you) as calm and stress-free as he can, whether that involves cracking jokes, ordering champagne or fixing your television!
Steve strives to create a bespoke wedding photography service that truly represents you as a couple, and does not believe in a "one size fits all" approach. This is reflected in all he does, from his "Pick'N'Mix" price list, to his wide range of presentation options.
A key aspect of Steve's wedding photography is the pre-wedding shoot, which is held a month or so before the wedding. This is a chance for you to become comfortable in front of the camera, for Steve to get to know you as a couple and for him to incorporate that into your day.
The pre-wedding shoot can take place anywhere you choose, from your living room to the city walls of Lincoln, from your local skate-park to Sherwood Forest. Your wedding photography may be in Epworth, Doncaster or Scunthorpe, but the pre-wedding shoot is your chance to be as creative, or relaxed, as you wish.
