Hi, I'm Clive Blair
I’m an award-winning wedding photographer in Birmingham. I’m currently ranked Top 3 Wedding Photographer West Midlands (WPJA). Plus I’m a proud member of the exclusive West Midlands Selective.
As a centrally placed wedding photographer Birmingham makes it easier for me to photograph weddings all over the UK and abroad. I’ve worked in places like Ireland, Jamaica and Mexico, and look forward to adding your event location to my growing list.
My Style
To help you relax and enjoy your day, my shooting style focuses on photographing people and their interactions with each other. The love and romance between you both. The natural unguarded moments that happen with your family and friends. Capturing the story-telling frames that stand the test of time.
This means capturing the spirit of what it was like to be at a wedding as a guest. No fussing or faffing about taking endless posed photos.

Blending sight and sound in a slideshow to give a truly immersive experience and unique record of your wedding day
” From the moment we saw Clive’s work we knew we HAD to have him photograph our wedding.
His documentary style photos were just stunning. The natural style and unposed pictures are what we just fell in love with. “

You'd expect a winter wedding to be cold and damp, with poor lighting. But not this Mottram Hall wedding celebration. On one of the warmest winter's day Rebecca and Ryan tied the knot at Mottram Hall.

When Lucy and George told me were they having their wedding reception in the grounds of Lucy's parents home that had a windmill, to say I was excited, would be an understatement.

I had an enjoyable day as Brogan and Ben's The Bond Birmingham wedding photographer, especially as this was the first time visiting this unique venue on my doorstep.
Wool Barn Wedding | Anna and Sam
Anna and Sam's decision to hold their Wool Barn wedding in summer was the perfect choice because of the ample shady areas in the sumptuous garden area of the estate.

2018 Review
It's time again for my another round-up of my favourite images. Looking back over my favourite images in my 2018 review reminds me of some great times.
Over the years, I’ve been a Wedding Photographer of the Year twice and still winning awards today.
I’ve been featured in featured in wedding magazines such as “Your West Midlands Wedding Magazine”
Some of my weddings are also featured on wedding blogs, such as Boho Weddings, Love Your Wedding and The English Wedding Blog.
If you’re planning a wedding with unusual, quirky or simply unique features and styling, I’d love to be involved to give your wedding a wider audience with a blog submission.
Some people use various buzz words to describe my style and approach to weddings, such as reportage, documentary, photojournalism, unposed, natural etc.
Call it what you like (I tend to favour documentary wedding photographer) but simply put: My heart lies in watching people and telling their story without interfering or making them aware of my camera.
If you want to relax, be yourself and show your personality, Let’s chat further. Although I’m a wedding photographer Birmingham based, I’d love to document your wedding whether it’s in the UK or abroad.
