SHAWN MULLINS

Let me introduce myself...

I'm Andy, a wedding and Live music photographer based in Derby.

I’m not Jon Snow

I am a Yorkshireman. It's been said I sound like an extra from Game of Thrones, I'm no Jon Snow but I do have a spirit of adventure, hailing originally from the rugged beauty of the Bronte country.

Rock “n” Roll Life

Before taking the plunge into making my passion for photography my full-time job, I worked in many different walks of life, with all sorts of people, and enjoyed every second.

Living life to the full is key to me - I've been a roadie for rock bands, still own a huge collection of old school vinyl, love riding motorcycles, have climbed volcanoes to meet mountain gorillas, ridden in Zodiac inflatables and tracked sperm whales in the Atlantic.

I'm married to Sally with two children Dan and Ellis and four dogs Marley, Pixi, Mabel and Paisley who all fill my life with joy .

Weddings are where I create

To me, there is no such thing as a 'typical' wedding - you are individuals; your wedding day is uniquely yours.

I will work with you, listen to you, and use my expertise and experience to capture your personality and individuality - the essential 'you-ness' of the occasion.

I will tell your wedding story in a sumptuous mix of contemporary documentary photos and stylish portraiture, influenced by the glamour of the cinema.

I offer a boutique service that is so much more than traditional wedding photography.

I BELIEVE IN DREAMS

“There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why
Can’t my dream come true oh why?
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
The doubt and fear, if I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why
Won’t that sun appear?
We’re lost in a cloud, with too much of rain
We’re trapped in a world, that’s troubled with pain
But as long as a man, has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
(Deep in heart)
Deep in my heart there’s a tremblin’ question
Still I am sure that the answer, answer’s gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there’s a beckoning candle
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true right now, let it come true right now oh yeah”
Elvis Presley
 Inspirational quotes I live by
 
“I like to be surrounded by splendid things.”
Freddie Mercury
“You’ve got to know your limitations. I don’t know what your limitations are. I found out what mine were when I was twelve. I found out that there weren’t too many limitations, if I did it my way.”
Johnny Cash
