About Us

FILMAR Photography is owned and managed by Phil Graham.

The name FILMAR came into being in 1982 from a friendship between Phil and Martin Garroway who were both working for Royal Mail in Darlington at the time.  Martin has moved away but Phil continues to manage the business and is now the sole owner.  Phil is also the official photographer for Bishop Auckland football club.

Now with over thirty four years experience taking family and personal portraits along with weddings and a wide range of social and domestic events, Phil’s work has been published in regional newspapers, magazines and sporting publications. Take a moment to look in the “Gallery” on this site for examples of  work undertaken.

At FILMAR Photography we offer a comprehensive range of no obligation quotations in addition to our advertised services to clients who seek an affordable range of photographic services, some of which may not be listed on this website.

At FILMAR Photography we believe in offering value for money born from the recognition that everybody wants high quality images to keep and treasure for years to come but not everybody can afford the fees charged by some of todays photographers.  FILMAR Photography pitches fees to be affordable without compromising quality or service.

At FILMAR Photography we understand that many families, couples and individuals often simply require a more down to earth photographic service at more readily affordable prices.  Our wedding packages and other services are priced to reflect today’s family budgets.

FILMAR Photography can also meet your personal requirements with a range of services tailored to suit every budget.

We cover County Durham, Teesside and North Yorkshire and beyond for all photography requirements.
