I’m truly blessed to have been given this opportunity in life to become a photographer. I first picked up a camera when I was 15 and was almost immediately thrown in at the deep end with event photography! Honestly, talk about being in the right place at the right time! Throughout the next two years, I was photographing the nightlife industry and smaller events week in and week out, which helped me book my first wedding!

At age 17, I created my brand as “Photographer Liam Gillan” so I could keep all of my images in one place, create a portfolio, and maybe try to make something of all this experience! During my first two years of documenting weddings, I was given the opportunity to travel to Northern Ireland, to the coast of Ballycastle, to document a wedding. Then, two weeks later, I travelled across the country to Manchester for another wedding. I found myself in the fortunate position where I’ve never stopped documenting weddings!

I’ve been equally blessed to not have had to advertise at wedding fairs or shows. We’ve gained a wonderful reputation through word of mouth, and I’ve been able to build and grow a team around the passion I have for photography!
