Most recent post on the blog: “Cripps Barn Wedding Photography – Lorna and Nigel…” (137 days ago)

James Fear is a Cheltenham based contemporary wedding photographer who specialises in unobtrusive, photojournalistic wedding photography. James covers wedding photography assignments within Cheltenham, Gloucestershire and the Cotswolds, but on occasion will consider bookings further afield. Some of the most notable locations James has photographed recently include: Pittville Pump Rooms, Clearwell Castle in the Forest of Dean, Cripps Barn Nr Cirencester, Hatton Court Hotel Nr Gloucester, The Cheltenham Regency Hotel, Cheltenham Ladies College and Ashton Court Mansion in Bristol to name a few.

What separates James from many other wedding photographers is his ethos and approach to wedding photography. James' main inspiration comes from two of the all time great photojournalistic photographers: Henri Cartier Bresson and Ansel Adams. Calling his style contemporary photojournalism or modern reportage, James' aim is to always photograph weddings in as unobtrusive manor as possible, striving to capturing the true essence of your day.

Although James now photographs digitally his background is from the film days. This and his influence from the past are also inherent in his post-production values. Simply put, if it wasn't possible in the darkroom then James will not allow it on the computer. This approach to post-production leads to timeless wedding photographs that clients treasure forever. For more information regarding James' ethos, services and fees see the Bio.
