Hello, I'm Thea!
Thee has always been a nickname of mine and that's what inspired my business name: Photograthee (clever, I know!). I am a passionate photographer based in Manchester, UK and I simply adore making memories last through photography. With 10 years of experience in many areas like dog portraits, band/artist press shots and live gigs... I decided to dive head first into wedding photography!
What to expect from me as your photographer
Firstly, I have a heart full of love, laughter, and a camera always in hand.
This year is extra special for me because I’m getting married myself, which means I truly understand how meaningful every little detail of your day is. The emotions, the excitement, the chaos, and the magic - I get it, and I want to capture it all for you exactly as it feels.
When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me out walking my gorgeous spaniel, Albie (he’s basically a professional model at this point - with his very own Instagram!). I’m a huge animal lover, nature explorer, board game enthusiast (Azul is our current favourite), and passionate foodie. I’m also a bit of a homebody who loves nothing more than curling up under a blanket watching my favourite series.
As a Pisces and total water baby, I’m deeply emotional and connected to the world around me - which probably explains why I may cry at your wedding (from joy of course!) If you see me tearing up behind the lens, don’t worry, it’s all part of the job!
My photography style is vintage, warm, and authentic - capturing candid, real moments that reflect your day exactly as it happens. I adore people and love getting to know my couples personally; by the time your wedding arrives, I want to feel more like a friend than a photographer.
And if little ones will be part of your big day, you’re in safe hands - I have been a fully qualified teacher for 4 years (mainly in Year 1 teaching children aged 5/6), so I know exactly how to bring out those natural, joyful smiles.
Whether your wedding is local to Manchester, by the sea, or somewhere further afield, I’d love to be there to tell your story, in all its beautiful, heartfelt, and joy-filled moments.
