MIKE BETTNEY Photography Leeds

Mike Bettney is a documentary wedding and event photographer based in Leeds who also shoots portraits and headshots. Before weddings he covered protests, rallies, gigs and public events, and he keeps a candid, unposed style with no cheesy posing, watching for every laugh, tear and dance move while the day unfolds. His event portfolio includes Leeds West Indian Carnival, Leeds Pride, Whitby Goth Weekend, the Brighouse 1940s Weekend and Kirkstall Abbey. He covers weddings and events across Leeds and the UK, welcomes LGBTQ couples, and currently advertises reduced prices on weddings booked in 2026. A wedding bookings page takes enquiries, and he also shoots street life and other documentary projects. He also writes a blog about his work.
