a bit about me

I really love what I do; being part of and capturing the biggest day in a couple’s life is both an honour and a privilege.

Andy Stonier - Kent Wedding Photographer

I’ve worked all over the world: in studios in New York, the ‘The News of the World’ and ‘The Sun’ newspapers, as an official photographer for the Duke of Edinburgh’s 70th Birthday at Windsor Castle, as a ship photographer onboard the QE2 and a Kodak wedding photographer. I’ve photographed many celebrities, from Nicole Scherzinger to Geri Halliwell: The Reverend Jesse Jackson to Ernie Wise.

I have four children ranging from 30 to 10 (I know!) and had very noisy Basset Hounds named Snoop and Flash, who inspired the name. I’ve worked as a Senior Graphic Designer in an advertising agency and have always been involved with the creative industries. I’m a MARVEL comic nerd, buying my first American import in 1976. It’s lovely at the moment, explaining all things superhero to the kids; finally, some respect!

STYLE

How would I describe my style? Beautiful, simple and elegant wedding photography. Timeless, but with individuality and style. I’ll create stunning images for you full of character and elegance while capturing all those special little candid moments as they happen. Documentary photography with style.

EXPERIENCE

I started Howling Basset back in 2004 and have photographed over 1,300 weddings. This experience means I’m calm, professional and discreet, helping me best capture your wedding story. I'm a member of the Royal Photographic Society.

APPROACH

Friendly and relaxed, my approach to weddings is professional and unfussy; I’ll do everything I can to make you feel comfortable in front of the camera and avoid interfering too much on your special day. I pride myself on making you look stunning and providing you with beautiful photos and memories to treasure.
