I photograph everything going on in a documentary style, as its all happening. I will help you with the poses and look you want, to get those all important images if you wish to have this.. If you don't want that, i am equally as happy, capturing those cherished natural moments betwen you both and your guests, and lets not forget the dance floor. I don't leave after the first dance :)

Pele, you rock!
Having searched high and low for a wedding photographer, Pele’s website and portfolio were exactly what we were looking for. From our first conversation (which was arranged in no time at all), we were sold and we were and are continuously impressed with his knowledge, personality and professionalism. We knew we had found a pretty amazing person to be a part of our big day! The most special part of Pele’s involvement in our day was his presence and he really felt like a friend/guest more than someone we had paid to be there. You rock Pele!!
Additionally, he made us feel at ease throughout the day, directed the logistically challenging family pictures flawlessly and even delivered the buttonholes to the groomsmen - talk about going above and beyond. Throughout the day, our guests continually complemented Pele’s humour and his ability to make everyone feel comfortable, getting many hilarious candid shots of our guests. We received our amazing pictures in really good time too and we felt like he captured our story perfectly (including the grooms quite rapid decent into drunkenness). Looking back, no other photographer could have captured our perfect day more brilliantly than Pele and we wish we could do it all over again, but we are lucky enough to relive it through the wonderful pictures that he took.

Wedding photographer 04.10.24
Where do I start! Pele was incredible from day 1. We found Pele incredibly responsive and very accommodating. We attended the complimentary couples shoot Pele provides, which initially we were apprehensive about, but found this to be an amazing experience and I would highly recommend it. We felt so positive after the experience and it was great to meet Pele before the big day. The photos we got from this day were very special and a great practice, Pele made us feel very comfortable throughout. On the big day, Pele was a huge part of the smooth running of the day, alongside his amazing colleague Ben who was our second photographer. Pele made everyone feel comfortable and worked around everyone, which provided some really amazing candid shots. We had such great feedback from our wedding guests and other suppliers who said Pele was so friendly and easy to talk too. The photographs we got are incredible and highly professional whilst creating a relaxed and not too staged appearance. Since the wedding, Pele has been extremely efficient with providing us with our photos and thank you cards which are a great addition. We got a sneak peek whilst on honeymoon which was a great present. He went above and beyond to find some extra photos or different ones if we wanted them and was incredibly efficient about this. We have a huge selection to choose from, impossible to choose our favourites. I can't express how important Pele was too us on the day and we are over the moon with the photographs we have received. We couldn't recommend Pele enough and will certainly be returning to his services in the future :)

Fantastic photos that captured the magic
We booked Pele for our wedding and were so happy we did. He is so attentive and well organised, dealing with every request efficiently. We also had a beautiful engagement photoshoot which really helped us feel at ease for the big day. Pele is such a friendly guy and made everyone feel at ease. We had several meetings about how to capture our big day and he suggested a variety of angle/poses that would create a magical moment, so when the day came we knew what we were doing. His expertise made us feel relaxed and calm throughout the whole process. A true professional and we are thrilled with the photos, they really capture the joy and magic of the day.

Outstanding service from Pele and Den Helder!
Pele from Den Helder was the photographer for our wedding. From booking to finished product Pele was outstanding.
In the lead up to the wedding we met with Pele to talk about our requirements and what was important to us. Pele had also sent through a helpful questionnaire to prompt us in really thinking about what we would like.
Pele really took the time to get to know us and his knowledge and expertise were evident and we felt calm and at ease.
Whenever we had a question, query or idea, Pele was incredibly responsive.
I could not speak any higher of Pele and Den Helder. We were amazed with how efficiently the photographs were turned around and how they captured the whole day. Pele really made our day special and couldn't have been more professional, helpful and accommodating. All of our guests spoke of his friendliness and approachability.
Book Pele for your day before someone else does!

Look no further than Pele
Spoke to Pele on the phone who responded to our email request quickly. after a ten minute chat, we knew Pele would be good for our day. On the day, it was pouring but Pele still managed to get great shots, wasn't intrusive, super polite and he has captured our day perfectly - I would highly recommend and we cant thank him enough.

Absolutely perfect!
Pele was amazing throughout our whole wedding process. He was organised, efficient, attentive to our requests and what we wanted our photos to be like and, overall a great person to have on the day of our wedding. We absolutely love the photos Pele and his colleague took of the day and we’re so pleased with our photographer choice! Thank you so much!
