About Me

The Guild Of Photographers – Top 10 Photographer Of The Year

Showing your love story

Sharing someone’s wedding day is a privilege. It’s an intimate experience during which you have the chance to be around two people enjoying one of the happiest days of their lives. It’s about beginnings. Passion. Romance. Emotion. Getting to document these moments as images is an honour. It’s my responsibility to reflect that in the final photographs.

My Style As A Photographer

Everyone is different, and we all like different styles of photography. We can have soft and floral tones, or dramatic off-camera flash to create those “wow” images that really pop. Some people want their photographs to be more impressionistic and artistic, while others prefer an approach that reflects dynamic realism. Your wedding day is all about you: the happy couple. Whatever look you want for your wedding album, I can cater for your needs.

Serving Yorkshire & Beyond

I cover weddings across the whole of Yorkshire in towns and cities such as Huddersfield, Sheffield, Barnsley, and Wakefield, as well as Doncaster and my hometown of Batley. I also do portrait shoots and mentor other photographers in marketing. Check out my reviews from previous clients.

Award Winning Professional Photographer

I have successfully achieved The Photographers Bar with The Guild of Photographers and have recently become a Qualified Guild of Photographers Professional after a Panel of my images was recently Judged.  Here is a press release from the Guild:

Local Photographer Ben Cumming has achieved the distinction of becoming a ‘Qualified’ (Professional) member of the Guild of Photographers, the highly regarded national photographic body whose members are committed to achieving the highest standards of professionalism for the benefit of their customers. Becoming ‘Qualified’ with the Guild involves a rigorous assessment process, and Ben is now one of only around 350 people in the Country to hold this recognition!

“We are delighted that Ben has achieved Qualified status. The Guild has very demanding standards, so this achievement reflects Ben’s commitment to his photography, as well as his ability. The judging is undertaken by a panel of industry experts from a variety of photography backgrounds, so Ben should be very proud of this recognition.”
