Incredible

Where do i start? Howard is an absolutely amazing photographer who was not only friendly and professional but without a doubt made our wedding day so perfect.

We had a consultation with Howard beforehand where he gave us the opportunity to tell him of any particular requests we had, including family member shots, additional things we had booked etc which he kept referring to on the day of the wedding to make sure everything we wanted was ticked off! - As well as his own ideas of shots that he thought would work well (the expert knows best trust me!)

The day came, Howard arrived and joined myself and the bridesmaids whilst his second photographer Yan went to join the groomsmen. All of the getting ready pictures were candid, relaxed - just as I had hoped for!

Howard captured the ceremony, the reception, the speeches, our first dance - with confetti cannons - perfectly! I honestly could not have wished for any one better to have captured our special day for us! We are so grateful!

The photos arrived in a beautiful album made by Howard himself, along with a gorgeous love heart USB stick of all the photos within a few weeks of the wedding - such a quick turnaround which is so rare!

If you are looking for a lovely and kind photographer - who is incredible at what he does - I would 10000% recommend Howard to anyone who asks!

Thank you so much again Howard - we are so grateful!

Cool and collected

Howard was fantastic, he has a calmness about him which is what you need getting ready on your wedding morning. He coordinated the guests perfectly to get the perfect wedding photos and even sat and edited a few before he left in the evening so we had pictures to share before the end of the day.

Amazing! Fun and professional

We had such a wonderful experience with Howard. The whole day felt so relaxed knowing that Howard was collecting all the photos we needed. We did some experimental photos with smoke bombs which came out great and when we flicked through the photos we found some great moments that we didn't know he had caught on camera.

Could not recommend him highly enough!!!

Above and Beyond

Howard was a great find. He was communicative and had a plethora of ideas. He was punctual and responsive the entire time. Even when we had some feedback from the initial final product, he was the utmost professional and amended them to fit the aesthetic we were seeking. I would highly recommend his services.

Could not have asked for better

Howard was so unbelievably lovely and easy going from the very first message. While we were in the early planning stages with Howard we had a death in the family so our responses were few and far between, at no point did Howard hound us for answers and was completely understandable when we told him our reasons. He kept our date in the diary and was fantastic all the way through.

Communication was amazing all the way through the process and on the day he was timely and easy going. Everyone commented how lovely and professional he was and that they always saw him snapping away. He was even kind enough to hold my bouquet at times and I have to say he looks better than me!

We have photos that we will truly treasure forever, and will be recommending Howard to everyone and anyone that will listen.

Thank you so much!

Howard arrived on time. He was really professional, easygoing, efficient and very smart. He has a nice personality, he did not boss us around as to where we need to stand during photo sessions.

We totally recommend him.

Absolutely Amazing

Howard was incredible from the start. He kept in touch with us from the moment we booked and was kind and thoughtful. We had a brilliant catch up prior to the day where he asked questions about the day, the guests and what our needs were. He made it clear that we could come to him with any suggestions, ideas or questions. On the day Howard was absolutely fantastic. He was warm and friendly and made us feel so comfortable. As well as being a talented photographer he was genuinely fun to be around. We received all of our photos so quickly and even after sending he stayed in touch to check that we were happy with everything. Our photos are beautiful and we are so grateful to Howard. So much love for Howard, he added to the fun of the day and we would whole heartedly recommend him as a photographer for any event.

Spring wedding

Howard was wonderful throughout the entire wedding planning and on the day. He is super professional and offered us a consultation to talk about what we would like on the day.
He was kind with all friends and family on the day which is important to us. His work is beautiful. It arrived promptly in a gorgeous wooden box. The quality of the photos is incredible. I’d definitely recommend Howard.
