Best decision we made

We made the best decision by hiring JP to capture our wedding day. He fit in with our guests like a dream and made sure to capture all the moments we wanted. JP worked with us in the lead up to the big to make sure he knew what photos were important to us and that he knew which friends and family members were important and their names. He made everyone feel at ease and all of our guests commented on how much they loved the photographer. We were blown away by the images he took and the quality of the photo album is second to none. I cannot recommend JP enough for your wedding, I’d go as far as saying he is a necessity.

Incredible experience that lasts a lifetime

We met JP at the wedding fayre at Fanhams Hall. We instantly were happy with his work and he made us feel at ease straight away. We got married in 2019 the fact we have a beautiful glass picture in our home thanks to JP's amazing photography skills and perfect quality of how it can be presented says it all. Our wedding album is absolutely stunning and the quality is hard to come by. Everyone still says how in awe they are of the pictures to this day. They absolutely loved JP at the wedding and were so complimentary. They told us but they made sure they told him personally. Can't thank JP for making incredible memories for us to the point we can now show our daughter. We have recommended JP several times

Personable and Professional

My wife and I met John Paul O'Donnell at a local Wedding Fayre venue where we actually got married. We found him to be very friendly and professional, advising and preparing us in advance of the itinerary of the day and also catering for our personal requests too, especially regarding photographs in a frame my wife and I wanted on display of our late Fathers, which was done with care and sensitivity. All of our guests commented on how he put everyone at ease. He captured so many cherished moments of our special day. There were so many it was hard choosing the ones to go in our wedding album, which he even helped with at our request as we trusted his professionalism. We highly recommend John Paul O'Donnell Photography!

Jp is brilliant , from start to finish he made me and my guests feel at complete ease .

Jp is a great professional, he’s work is excellent and I found it so hard to pick my album because of the amazing range , quality and number of pics he took on the day .

Not only is he a brilliant photographer but he brings fun and a light hearted attitude to the day making everyone feel and ease and be themselves making the photo shoots easy and so real .

I would recommend Jp one hundred times over and without doubt would use him myself again.

Simply the best!

Booking JP for our wedding was the easiest and best decision we could have made. From our very first meeting with him we were extremely impressed with him and immediately knew he was the one for us! His photography is simply outstanding but choosing JP you get so much more! His professionalism, his knowledge, his ability to put you at ease is second to none. We have such incredible memories that he has captured beautifully. We had a small, COVID restricted wedding and having JP there was like having an extra guest! We had a pre-wedding shoot with him and he subsequently photographed our son's Christening - we wouldn't consider hiring anyone else! Do not hesitate to book JP - he is quite simply the best.

Wouldn’t choose anyone else

JP is so lovely. He’s so relaxed and gets everybody settled for the photos, he listens and you can tell just how much he loves his job. He got all the shots we wanted and more - a truly lovely guy! So glad I got to see him again at other weddings after my own! Highly recommend xx

Wedding photographer

Without doubt the best around. We used John Paul 6 years ago for our wedding I can't remember the price but it was 100% worth it. His knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail we're amazing from start to finish. He blends into the background so well to capture parts of the day that may have been missed that you can look back on for years to come but also knows the best places for that perfect shot. His character really shines through and makes you feel like you've known him years
