We spent months searching for the right photographer for us and when we found Matt, we knew we were in for a treat. We wanted someone who could be a 'fly on the wall', someone who doesn't take life too seriously and someone we could have a lot of fun with. Matt is an incredible photographer and we are over the moon with our photos and prints. His organisation skills are top tier, as is his sense of humour. He kept our day running smoothly and made us feel so comfortable. Book Matt - you won't regret it!

Liva and her partner took amazing pictures of our wedding in Bridgford hall and in Elvaston castle park. We had a lot of pictures to choose from and we were happy with the portraits and family pictures they took. The album was sent quickly so we were very satisfied ! Liva and her husband are discreet but fun to be around so we enjoyed our photoshoot with them. Don't hesitate to book them for your wedding (or any other event), they're reliable 👍🏻

What can i say, Graeme is an absolute legend. If you want lasting memories to be made in picture form - Graeme is your person. Graeme will capture your day and turn it into a story through the eye of a lens. We were looking for a photographer that was local to us but i was struggling to find one that we liked, then i came across a picture which intrigued both me and my husband enough to want to know who the photographer was …. The picture in question is rather quirky and id noticed it was taken at my local family parish church so i was even more determined to find out who had taken it and that we NEEDED them as our photographer - local or not. We arranged a meeting with graeme at our house and within the first 10 minutes of chatting to us we knew he was the right fit for us both from an aesthetic and price point of view - graeme spent over an hour with us listening to our story and I’m an anxious person but i felt so comfortable and relaxed i knew we needed to book him. Communication was excellent during the build up the big day, a few weeks before i sent over the list of the ‘necessary’ pictures but the rest we were happy for graeme to take the lead on capturing what he felt was best. Our brief from the outset was candid / natural shots over posed and graeme went above and beyond to fit the brief. Even more so my intention was to not have many pictures taken at church , spoiler alert - graeme is that good at his craft he got a ‘money shot’ i never realised i wanted or needed - he was so discreet , we didn’t notice he was actually inside the church - I’m so glad he just went with it as the pictures he took during the service are beautiful. Also he captured moments which my husband and i forgot actually happened - tar LOL. Prior to the service; id given graeme a little hint of direction with what i was looking for in terms of pictures or moments to capture pre service and he did just that - my husband and i were legally married the year before and for the blessing service this year both of us were to walk down to the aisle together - so i wanted a ‘first look’ sort of vibe of my husbands reaction to the upgraded ‘frock’ before we went into church , oh wow, did graeme get those shots and more. The Reception: Again, graeme was given a brief of certain pictures to get then the rest we were happy for him to take the lead and have fun with the camera. Our plans had changed slightly in the few weeks before the big day but this didn’t sway graeme at all. Specifically, precious lasting memories have been captured for my extended family and i cannot thank graeme enough for that. Graeme was patient and went above and beyond with our guests throughout the entire day - so much so , whilst the evening guests were arriving pre first dance, graeme gave an impromptu photography lesson with some of the younger children at our wedding which then led to getting some of the best candid shots of the kids on the dance floor - thank-you for being so attentive with them. Thank-you for being an integral part of our special day. If you want a photographer who will work with you, who will help and guide you and not be intrusive or pushy - Up The Right Tree - Graeme is the photographer for you.

We couldn't be happier with our experience with Jfk photography. They captured every special moment of our wedding day with such beauty and precision. The photos are stunning and perfectly reflect the joy and love we felt. Jacob was professional, friendly, and made us feel completely at ease. Their attention to detail and creativity truly set them apart. We highly recommend Jacob for anyone looking to capture their special day in the most magical way!

What can we say about David… Choosing him was the easiest decision we made in planning our wedding, even before we had an official date or venue. We knew from our first conversation that he was the perfect photographer for us. My new husband was particularly sold on the idea when he learned David uses a drone! David went above and beyond from the very beginning. Despite being on a family holiday, he took the time to speak with us and ease our concerns. He met us at our venue, discussed the shots we envisioned, and even showed us hidden gems for unique photos. On the wedding day, he delivered a rapid turnaround of countless stunning pictures. Our wedding day was perfect, and David captured every precious moment. We'll treasure our photos forever. David's calming presence made us feel at ease, so much so that we often forgot he was there. This allowed him to capture some of the best candid moments. To ensure both of us getting ready was documented, we also had a second photographer, Lee, who was just as wonderful and relaxed. Our guests continuously praised David and Lee’s professionalism and dedication. They skilfully captured every beautiful moment, including the hilarious mishap when my husband misheard instructions and sprayed fizzy 'champagne' all over David. Through it all, they remained patient and cheerful. Choosing Hazlewood as our venue and David as our photographer were the best decisions we made. We cry with joy every time we look at our photos, which perfectly encapsulate the magic of our day. David captured a wonderful mix of posed, candid, fun, and formal photos. He also made sure to consider all family members, including our grandmothers who have limited mobility and my camera-shy, disabled mother-in-law, she now proudly displays many of our photos. We even included our beloved dog in the celebrations, and David captured beautiful moments with him too. It was the best day of our lives, made even more memorable by David’s extraordinary talent. For anyone planning their special day, don’t sweat the small stuff – just book David. You won’t regret it!

When we met Jonathan and spoke about having pictures taken for our special day, he made us feel at ease as we had no idea where to start. He had the best advice on poses, even when I was confused at what to look at. And the visions he had just by looking at the location and surrounding area. We giggled and chatted, made the whole experience memorable.

Andy made myself and my husband feel so at ease with taking photos as we are not very good photo people! Fantastic photographer and would highly recommend!

Carl wanted to make sure he captured everything we wanted from our day and before the day was forthcoming with ideas that sounded lovely, he was super accommodating. When the day came nerves were everywhere and I didn’t even notice the camera, he kind of merged in the background but yet made you laugh along the way, he captured moments I didn’t even know he had, me and my partner hate photoshoots etc but he made the photos fun, he’s a great guy with a great sense of humour and that couldn’t of helped more when we felt so nervous. The end product was out of this world we couldn’t of asked for more he delivered way more than we expected. I can not recommend him enough. I would never recommend any one else! Thanks Carl ❤️

Made me feel really comfortable! And the photos are amazing, so pleased with how they turned out! Sam and Claire had a lot to capture on the day and did it all brilliantly!

We were looking for a photographer for our small, last minute, intimate wedding and we were recommended Jacque from a previous couple. Even with only a few weeks notice, Jacque went above and beyond to ensure that she was able to help us in every way possible. She explained everything in detail from start to finish and made sure that all 3 of us were on the same page from the very first discussion. She took the time to have a phone call with us (due to distance) to discuss expectations and we were over the moon with the photos and effort put into photographing our special day We cannot thank you enough for what you’ve done and we would highly recommend you to everyone!
