About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2023

Last update: April 2025

Hey there! I'm Gary Williams, an award-winning wedding photographer, and I specialise in capturing beautiful, natural moments for people who don’t like to pose.

My work has been exhibited in galleries worldwide, featured in books, published in The New York Times, and even displayed on billboards. Most impressively, it's also been printed on tea towels!

Before moving to London, I spent most of my life in Grimsby (home of fish and chips), so you'l find me down-to-earth and straightforward. Before photography, I was a full-time singer, performing everywhere from Buckingham Palace to Carnegie Hall—so I know how to handle high-pressure moments and deliver when it really counts.

What I love most about wedding photography is capturing real, heartfelt moments—the kind that take you straight back to your day, make you smile, laugh, and maybe even shed a tear. Telling your story through images that feel alive and full of emotion is what truly excites me.

I’ve been honoured to have my work featured in The New York Times, ArtDoc Photography Magazine, World of Interiors Magazine, and Dodho Magazine (Photography Awards). My photos have been officially selected for the International Photography Awards, received Honourable Mentions in the London Photography Awards, and been included in the Historic England National Archive. I’ve exhibited at Decode Gallery in Arizona, the Hellenic American Union Annual Exhibition, Art Square Gallery in New York, the Chania International Photo Festival, the Trieste Photo Festival, the Glasgow Gallery of Photography (Masters of Street Photography), the Shutter Hub Annual Exhibition at Cambridge University, and F-Stop Magazine’s 20th Anniversary Exhibition.

And of course, I love wedding photography, which is why I was thrilled to win the Hitched Wedding Awards 2024. But at the end of the day, the accolades don’t matter as much as you and your story—that’s what truly matters to me.
