Experience Unforgettable Wedding Photography with Brett Harkness
Hi my name is Brett & together with my wife Kristie we have been photographing Weddings, Bar & Bat Mitzvahs, Parties & Celebrations for over 20 years. Based from our fabulous studio in leafy Lytham we photograph weddings & events all around the UK & beyond. I have been stopping time with my camera for over 20 years. Capturing the love, tears & magic of peoples lives.
We work all over the UK photographing Weddings, Bar & Bat Mitzvah and Parties & Celebrations. What’s my style? Well I’d say it’s a mixture of just letting things happen mixed with a little flair! a little fashion and a whole lot of fun! I work with a band of brothers who have worked with me for over 15 years. I am always the photographer you will get, alongside one of my assistants, Ross & Jon.

ABOUT US
'After many years of travel and working in Miami with people from all countries and cultures, it was under American skies in 1999 when I met Kristie. From that day forth, our own love story spiralled into a marriage, a business and an expanding family. It became our dream to work together creating a career that reflects our passion for both family and photography, whilst maintaining a distinct vision on how the Harkness brand would progress. In 2001 that dream became a reality and as 2022 is nearly done that success is very much growing with every passing day. We moved to the beautiful town of Lytham on the Fylde Coast just after lock down. With our client base spread over the entire UK & Europe nowhere is too far. I grab my camera and go. ‘
