Max Clarke

Based in Manchester and Carlisle, I work with couples all across the UK. Whether you're planning a small elopement or a big celebration, I’m here to make the whole experience smooth, efortless, and all about you and your story. Having worked with over 500 couples, I love capturing moments that are both timeless and full of personality. My style is natural and relaxed to capture the unique nature of every couple. Rather than follow trends, my work is traditional with bold colours shining through so your memories last a lifetime.

The Experience in Their Words

Mr & Mrs Walker

"I do recommend Clarke Studios. He was our photographer at our wedding and he was really nice and made us feel comfortable, especially as my husband hates his photo being taken but we do have some lovely shots. The album is beautiful and the extra package we chose was a very good deal. Some amazing shots."

Mr & Mrs Topping

"Max was our photographer and he took some amazing shots at our wedding at The Blacksmiths Shop, Gretna Green in December 2024. He took control, made us feel at ease and was very professional. A delight to deal with on the day and afterwards. Photo gallery was very quick along with album and digital copies to follow. Max came as part of a Gretna package but he truly was fab."

Mr & Mrs Scollen

"Max made our wedding photo experience fun and relaxed whilst capturing some beautiful pictures of us! Max helped us set up a live stream of our ceremony and went above and beyond to help our day go smoothly. He's a lovely guy and we would 100% recommend him!"
