Hello, I’m David Conway
I am David Conway, an award-winning Cheshire wedding photographer. I've been doing wedding photography for more than 14 years, and I take both relaxed, professional photos of the day's events and beautiful, modern photos of the couple. The bride and groom can spend time together and take unique photos. My style is natural and unposed, and I rarely tell people where to stand or how to pose themselves. This leads to beautiful, natural wedding photos.

The History of Delamere Manor
Delamere Manor has a rich history dating back to 1784. It was originally known as Delamere Lodge and later renamed Delamere House. Built for the Wilbraham family, the mansion underwent various ownership changes and transformations. In 1939, it was rebuilt as Delamere Manor by George Hugh de Vernon Wilbraham after the original building's demolition in 1930.
During World War II, the manor and its grounds served as a military base, accommodating British and US soldiers, along with Polish families. In 1962, the Wilbrahams' two-century ownership ended, marking the beginning of a new era under Mr E. Graham-Wood. The grounds also housed Delamere Manor Fly Fishers' Club for 40 years.
In 1995, Gary Barlow, a former member of Take That, purchased the estate, turning it into a celebrity hotspot with a recording studio.
After a decade, Barlow put Delamere Manor on the market. The property eventually came under the ownership of Michelle Stubbs, who transformed it into a licensed wedding venue in 2015. The extensive renovations included landscaping the grounds, making it an enchanting setting for weddings, with many celebrities, including Jacqueline Jossa and Samia Ghadie, choosing Delamere Manor for their special day.

I am based in Holmfirth, West Yorkshire, which gives me access to Greater Manchester, Cheshire, and the rest of Yorkshire - North Yorkshire, East Yorkshire and South Yorkshire. As a rule, I am happy to travel up to 60 miles to cover a wedding. Any further than this I charge a fee to cover travel costs. Some of my favourite venues include: Allerton Castle, Bunny Hill, Carlton Towers, Colshaw Hall, Delamere Manor, Foxtail Barn, Hawkstone Hall, Hazlewood Castle, Heaton House Farm, Holmfirth Vineyard, Howsham Hall, Manor House, Merrydale Manor, Nunsmere Hall, Owen House, Peckforton Castle, Ripley Castle, Rudding Park, Rushpool Hall, Saltmarshe Hall, Swinton Park, Tithe Barn, Wharf Grange & Woodlands Hotel
Every wedding is different and the number of images you receive can be a reflection of what moments are there to be captured. On a normal wedding day I usually deliver between 600-800 images to your online gallery.
I know how keen my couples are to see and share some images from their wedding day, so with this in mind I always like to provide a selection of teaser shots a day or two after the wedding day. This would usually be around 20-30 images. I then aim to deliver the full collection of images on an online gallery within 6-8 weeks.
From the online gallery my coupes will have access to the full selection of wedding images, but they will be subtly watermarked. From the gallery you would be able to order any prints or wall art directly through my professional printing service. You would be able to share the gallery to any friends and family, and they too, would be able to order any prints they may like as well. If you wanted the full collection of high resolution images to share and keep, my couples do have the option of ordering a USB. See more on my packages page here.
Having been photographing weddings for the best part of 13 years, I am a highly experienced photographer. I have been lucky to work at some of the countries premium wedding venues and have one many awards, including the prestigious Guild Of Photographers Wedding Photographer of the Year in 2021 & 2023.
Yes, I have insurance for all my equipment as well as £2M public liability insurance. I also have Drone insurance as well as the necessary drone qualifications to be legal and safe when flying at a wedding.
No. I see my drone as an essential piece of equipment on a wedding day, and so long as the weather allows it and it is safe to do so, I will use it on your wedding day to capture shots of the venue, your guests and it allows me to get creative when getting shots of my couples too.
Get in touch using my contact page here and we can arrange a chat, either in person at my home in Brockholes, Holmfirth, or we can arrange a Zoom call.
