About

Who are Pilkington Photography?

We’re Claire & Andy and we live in a quiet little village just outside of Woburn, Bedfordshire. We met 12 years ago, when we had a few less wrinkles and a lot less grey hair! Since then we have acquired two dogs, a cat (a number of mice although not by choice) and two children. We have also consumed ALOT of caffeine in that time.

I have always taken photos of absolutely anything and everything but we found our real passion for photography after we got married and have been developing our skill set ever since. We love learning and trying new things and are always bouncing new ideas off one another. We have been trained by a number of award winning photographers over the years and will continue to do so - you can never know too much!!

We realised how important it is to have a photographer who can not only capture what the day looked like but what it felt like too. We love nothing more than delivering pictures that bring memories flooding back and getting snapshots of those unseen moments you may have been too busy to see. The excitement we get when we deliver the final package across is something else!

We find that being a married couple gives us an upper hand over other photographers as we were a ready made team before we started our business. We know how one another works better than anyone else and naturally complement each others working style.

Happy planning! Hope to hear from you soon 😊

Highly recommend

Absolutely wonderful service, friendly, professional and took in to account we aren't keen on posing for pictures. Hardly knew they were there which made us feel at ease for some natural pictures as well as amazing professional posed photographs. Would highly recommend and thanks for making our day so special:)

Incredible photographers! Highly recommend!

WOW! Andy and Claire are amazing! They are such talented photographers, and really put you at ease on the day. They did our engagement photoshoot and our wedding day. All our guests commented on how lovely they are (one of our friends already wants to book them for their wedding!). We looked at sooooo many photographer options when we were booking our wedding and are so pleased we went with these guys. They went above and beyond to help us - offering help on the day and super flexible to our needs. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Friendly and professional.

The pictures were amazing. Better than we ever thought they would be. All our friends had lovely pictures of themselves and we had pictures that captured our love and happiness on our special day. I would recommend Claire and Andrew to everybody who wants fond beautiful memories of their public expression of commitment.

Captured the Day Perfectly!!

We are so happy with the photographs that were taken by Claire and Andy. They are clearly passionate about what they do and it really does show. From the moment we first contacted them we were immediately put at ease and felt confident that they would do an amazing job in documenting and recording one of the happiest days of our lives. With Pilkington photography we got two photographers which meant more of those special moments were captured. We barely noticed them in the background and they allowed the day to flow naturally. When we received the pictures we were blown away with how amazing they were, the wonderful candid moments that had been captured and the high quality of the pictures. Looking through them was like reliving the day!! These photographs will stay with us for the rest of our lives and they were honestly worth every penny!! We will definitely be recommending Pilkington Photography to others.

Kyleigh & Alex’s Wedding 21.05.2022

Pilkington Photography were our photographers for our wedding day and what a fantastic job they did!

Andy and Claire are professional, friendly and extremely knowledgable in what they do, this was reflected in our wedding photos and truly highlights what an amazing day our Wedding day was, we will cherish our photos forever.

I can’t thank Andy and Claire enough for their efforts on the day. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Andy and Claire to anyone needing a photographer in the future.

Thank you both again,

Kyleigh & Alex.

Outstanding Service

Pilkington Photographers were the easiest of our Wedding Suppliers to deal with. Always responded to questions quickly, were very flexible with the packages supplied. They were with us from early in the morning but it didn't feel intrusive at all but still they worked really hard. It was like having your best friends taking pictures. Such a lovely couple and the resulting pictures were amazing. We ended up with 100's of pictures to help us remember our Wedding Day and got to see a lot of fun or beautiful moments that we would not have known about.
So pleased that we found them and honoured us with their presence and photos..
I have no hesitation in recommending them and will certainly be in touch with them for any future special photo requirements.

Amazing photos that totally captured the feel of the day!

Fantastic and high quality photos - I can not recommend Claire and Andrew enough ! They were an absolute pleasure to deal with before, and after, our special day. They really took the time in advance to get to know us and understand what we wanted, and they absolutely delivered what we asked for and so much more ! On the actual day they were very discrete and we hardy noticed they were there, but their photos captured not only what happened but also the emotion of the day. Their artistic skill in capturing special moments, and guests from all ages is second to none! We could not be happier - thank you!!

THE best wedding photographers going!

Quite honestly the part of our wedding I was dreading the most was the photographs, I hate my photograph being taken I just find the whole thing so awkward. However Pilkington
Photography made it an absolute joy! We done the traditional wedding photos but it's the candid shots that truly captured the happiness of the day. Looking back at us and our guests having fun, the genuine smiles and laughter brings the whole day back to us. We barely knew they were there, they were so kind and understanding, they just got us! The prints afterwards are outstanding, even our guests were amazed by the quality. Thank you so much for our wonderful treasured memories and making our special day even more special.

Highly recommend without hesitation!
