North Wales and Cheshire Wedding Photographer

capturing precious wedding moments in

North West, UK and European Destinations

Welcome to the website of award winning North Wales and Cheshire wedding photographers, Yana Photography

My story of a local wedding photographer started in 2004. Since then I photographed hundreds of amazing couples in the UK, Spain, Italy and France. My unique approach of a documentary, natural photography mixed with elegant creativity and humour attracted couples from all over the world. My friendly efficiency and attention to detail was prased by brides, their mothers and other wedding professionals. 

Seeing and being inspired by beautiful art, has been my life long before I chose to be a creative artist with a fancy camera.

Having started my career as a journalist writing about law, travel and international relations, I'm inspired by multicultural relationships, national traditions and art. Unsurprisingly, my fascination with international ralationships have taken me beyond the boundaries of a UK wedding photographer. I'm delighted that opportinites to be a destination wedding photographer continue to come my way. 

Elegant and relaxed storytelling

My own family life tought me that the ability to relax in each other's company is just as important as the loving bond and passion for each other. The relaxed and natural wedding photography style is what makes the story of your day flow when you look back at your pictures. 

I hope you'll see how relaxed, yet still totally beautiful and elegant brides and grooms look in my photographs.

Natural and Timeless Wedding Photography

I've photographed wedding for many years now and have seen many different trends come and go. Just like you, I want your wedding pictures to look just as beautiful in 10, 20, 30 years time. Do you remember seeing your grandparents black and white pictures and thinking how beautiful and timeless they look?

21st century wedding photography certainly lost the stiffness of  old-fashioned poses. But there is no reason to loose timeless elegance of your wedding celebrations. You can have fun and enjoy the party and it's you photographer's job to capture it beautifully and with artistic flare.

I primarily work in Chester, Cheshire, North Wales and Shropshire areas though I do cover city weddings in Liverpool, Manchester and beyond. I offer my services for destination weddings in Europe, especially in France and Italy. Fluent in Russian, I work with British, Russian and international clients.
