ABOUT CELIA MANDERS PHOTOGRAPHY


I am truly lucky enough to capture gorgeous weddings all over Essex and the UK as an Essex wedding photographer. I deliver a first class service: providing creativity and an appreciation of each individual celebration. Collaborating my creative eye with my love for sustainability has allowed me to provide a unique and one of a kind service for every couple.


BEGINNINGS


My love for photography started when I used to work at my local horse riding yard. My friends would take their horses out over lunch time, and model with them while I confidently stood behind my camera. It certainly was a dream for teenage me to do this.


From there, I gradually entered the world of wedding photography, and my love for luxury imagery came alive. From gaining essential skills working as a second photographer, to working as a solo photographer in and around Essex. With several years of experience, photographing in a range of different venues in Essex, such as grand halls to barn weddings, I bring a gentle, fun and exciting approach to your wedding photography.


Personal

  • I live in Essex with my two gorgeous, but very cheeky, Corgis. Called Delilah and Rufus.
  • I love dog training, teaching my dogs new tricks.
  • I love to explore, my favourite place was Bali- the culture, the food and the people made it truly incredible.
  • Outside of photography, I love to see my favourite bands live, and go to my local coffee shop with friends.
  • I love fashion, especially thrifting and finding second-hand gems.
  • One thing I'd love to do is climb Ben Nevis and then take on the three peaks challenge.


How do these influence my photography?


Being able to go on long adventures with Delilah and Rufus, has enabled me to stumble across stunning locations and come up with exquisite ideas. My desire to travel and explore has also sparked up an interest in international wedding photography, ensuring that I have a proactive approach to my photography. My interest in fashion definitely leaks through to my wedding photography, especially second hand vintage pieces- I just love it!
