Jonathan was one of the first things we booked for our wedding, a glance through his website portfolio and a teams call with him was all we needed to know that he was the photographer for us!!
Jonathan was such a delight on our wedding day, he was much more than just a photographer he helped with attaching button holes and fluffing my dress to make sure the train looked lovely!!♥️
Jonathan was so friendly with all our guests, we had almost all our guest approach us to say how lovely he was!
He is excellent at putting people at ease when being photographed, I hate my photo being taken most of the time but with Jonathan it was easy and so much fun!! Amazing to have a photographer you can have a real laugh with!!😂
All in all his passion and love for what he does really does shine through in the final product, we have only had our sneak preview so far and they are breathtaking♥️

There will be about fifty thousand seconds on your wedding day. Across a hundred people, that’s a few million moments, from a billion angles, all overlapping and happening at once. And yet somehow to you it will feel as though the whole thing passes in a single click. When it’s over and the guests have gone home, you will be left with the memories you make and the pictures you take and sadly, not much else.

Looking back on our wedding I realise now that more important than the choice of cake or suit or even dress was the choice of who we would ask to weave his way through this mess of a trillion moments and drag the best bits back into forever.

Jonathan was phenomenal. Of course he got the first dance. Of course he got the kiss. Any decent photographer can get a good line-up and force a few ‘candids’ but Jonathan was different; he was like the air itself. He was everywhere yet nowhere, like some kind of omniscient being, emerging where the most joy, the most laughter, the most love was, to seize that one beautiful shot from the perfect angle then dissolve into the background and reappear elsewhere. The toppling jenga, my niece mooning us with her nappy, the heads thrown back in laughter at some now forgotten joke: these are the moments we’ll return to over and over when we think of our wedding day.

Jonathan also gave me the last photo of myself, my Dad and my Grandad together, not long before we lost them both. And after he heard the news, he printed and framed a copy and sent it to me with condolences, which was such a lovely touch. That photo alone would have been worth the fee.

And on top of all this talent, skill and hard work, he is a deeply kind soul. He was so charming and personable at our small Covid wedding that when he returned the following year for the belated celebration (he bent over backwards to accommodate this), it felt like seeing an old friend.

I’m only sorry it took me so long to write this review and give him the justice he deserves.
So, if you’re reading this, please, don’t leave the lens in lesser hands. Let Jonathan take care of it.

My husband and I had a small ('Covid') wedding in May 2021, and Jonathan did a wonderful job as a photographer. Not only when it comes to the quality of the photos (which were superb), but also as a reliable and supporting presence in the lead-up to the event and during it. His love of photography shines through in his work. I would very highly recommend him to any other couple looking for a wedding photographer!

From the meetings, to engagement photos to the big day Jonathan was truly amazing. He really knew what he was doing and really understood what we wanted. He was amazing at his job and felt like an old friend at the same time with his approach - warm, funny, understanding and really got to know us and what style we wanted. All our guests were also so fond of him. We would recommend him over and over and he made our experience even better for us. Would never hesitate to refer and couldnt thank him enough for everything he did!

Hiring Jonathan was one of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding. We could not have asked for better.

He was so communicative during the planning stages and patient when sometimes it took us a little while to respond. Jonathan was very accommodating when it came to creating a slightly bespoke package which we really appreciated.

We were both quite nervous with being photographed and I can't recommend an engagement photoshoot enough - Jonathan immediately put two awkward people at ease in front of the camera and before long he felt more like a friend just from that first hour! After that, all our nerves of being photographed on the wedding day just melted away and the photos from that shoot were all fantastic.

He really took the time to get to know us as a couple and what our wedding day would be like and his attention to detail was incredible - for example, he knew that my engagement ring was my mums, and took the most beautiful photo of it during the ceremony which was so lovely. On the day, Jonathan was everywhere (but also incredibly discreet)! There wasn't a moment that went by that passed his notice, and we absolutely loved the time he took in getting photos of all our friends and family enjoying the day. He captured the story of the day perfectly. Taking a lot of time for portraits wasn't too important to us as we didn't want to be taken away from everyone for long, and he totally understood. I think we only took around 20 minutes during dinner but the photos of just the two of us are beautiful.

His attention to detail, his care and his friendliness are second to none. Jonathan was such a calm and supportive presence both on our wedding day and in the lead up to it, and we couldn't be more grateful for everything he did. Not only was his service wonderful and the photos amazing, but we had our previews within the week, and our full album a month later. The hardest part is choosing which ones to hang on the wall! If you're not sure who to hire for your wedding, just hire Jonathan. It'll be the best decision you make. Thank you! Claire & Si Hartley x

First and foremost Jonathan's photos are just amazing and speak for themselves! Me and my partner can be very awkward in front of the camera, so having someone who makes you feel completely relaxed was just a blessing.
Very very importantly - Jonathan is just a top guy. So so lovely... we even had friends and family saying how nice and kind he was on the day!
He fit in seamlessly and you barely notice he's there getting the best shots. Silent camera and just rapid round the room! Additionally, he was super helpful, reminding us of a few details, fanning my train to perfection 👌 and getting so many shots we just hadn't thought of - plus just in the moment requests.
I cannot recommend Jonathan highly enough 🙌

If you're looking for a photographer to capture a special event, do not hesitate to contact Jonathan!

We reached out to him via his website to photograph our wedding, which was at the end of May 2024.
Throughout the whole process, Jonathan made sure he got to know us as people and our story, rather than just treating us as 'another customer'.
His documentary-style photography captured our attention immediately, and his focus on capturing those split-second, non-planned moments has meant that our wedding photos really tell a story of the day, and highlight the variety of emotions that we and our guests experienced.

We booked an engagement shoot with Jonathan and he really made us feel at ease throughout. Nothing was forced or staged, meaning he truly captured the natural moments.

On the day itself, Jonathan went above and beyond his role as photographer. He arrived early and left later then planned just to make sure he captured every last moment. All of our guests commented on how friendly and approachable he was.
Nothing was ever too much trouble, including the addition of last-minute photos on the day that we'd not planned for.

We highly recommend Jonathan! The proof of his fantastic work is in the photos! We can't wait to see the final album soon!

We can't thank Jonathan enough for capturing our special moments over the past 12 months, from our engagement shoot last year to our wedding this summer 2023 and everything in between. We love every single one of our photos and are thrilled with how Jonathan captured the fun, love, laughter and the drama of our memorable day!

The whole process was seamless and to top it off we received our album recently which also is fantastic! A beautiful memory of our wedding day which we will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Jonathan more highly!

Jonathan was great. Everything was well organised and ready for our day. We’d booked Jonathan along with Rob to do our wedding video and it was great to have such a great team to capture our special day. Jonathan was so kind and helpful during the day and offered great advice and reassurance when needed. He made myself and my husband incredibly relaxed and helped us enjoy the picture taking experience. The photos were stunning, we are so incredibly happy with them. We love that he captured moments of the day in a great story telling manner. He took beautiful photos of our friends and family’s reactions which make them a joy to look back on. Thank you Jonathan.

Choosing Jonathan to capture our wedding day was one of the best decisions we made.

From the beginning, Jonathan was fast in communication, and it was clear that he wanted to get a comprehensive understanding of us as people, as well as the day we were planning, so that his work could be as in-keeping with the theme and our vision as possible. His preparation was very thorough, which was very reassuring.

On the day, Jonathan arrived early and stayed late, putting in a real shift to make sure that all of the important moments from the day were captured. He has perfected the ‘fly-on-the-wall’, unintrusive style of photography. This meant that the moments themselves happened totally organically, and this exactly how Jonathan captured them. Nothing felt staged or forced, and this was very important to us.

As for Jonathan himself, he was so much more than our wedding photographer. He used his extensive wedding experience to guide us wherever we needed it. He was always incredibly friendly and warm to interact with, and many of our guests, including children, commented on how wonderful he was with them. He helped secure the buttonholes for several of the groomsmen, and the groom. He felt more like a friend or a guest, and this was so special to have.

We received the preview shots the week after the wedding, and wow, we’re blown away. Jonathan captured a marvellous silhouette shot of the happy couple which is breathtaking. Even just from these preview shots, we couldn’t be happier with the quality, the style, and the intimacy of the pictures. We’re very much looking forward to seeing the full library.

In summary, you shouldn’t hesitate to hire Jonathan for whatever photography needs you have. He will be professional but friendly, unobtrusive but thorough, and a delight to be around at all times.

From our very first chat with Jonathan we knew he'd be the perfect photographer for our wedding. He was fantastic on the day and understood us so well, to the point some of our guests asked if we knew him before. And, on top of all that we received back the most amazing photos of our day. We highly recommend Jonathan to capture all the special moments on the day that you might otherwise miss.

Jonathan captured our wedding spectaularly, the photos are gorgeous and we will treasure them. Looking through them brought back the emotions of the day. He captured some absolutely wonderful candid photos of our friends and family.

Jonathan was amazing to work with from start to finish and made everything feel so easy. His photography on that day was discreet yet he captured all our special moments from every angle. We cannot thank him enough for our beautiful photographs and creating such wonderful memories which will last forever. We couldn’t have asked for more - thank you!

We cannot begin to thank Jonathan enough for all that he did for our wedding. From the moment we spoke on Zoom up until the day we received our album,
we could not have asked for a better photographer. We found him to be very professional and friendly throughout the process. As two individuals who
find it awkward in front of the camera, we found Jonathan to be very calming and instantly put us ease. From the kids playing in the garden to the dodgy
dancing and surprise Bridesmaid shots in the evening. He captured all the tears and laughs and got some captivating and natural shots that we will treasure forever.
He was so much fun to have around and he received tons of praise from all our guests. His style of photography and suggestions for our album were
perfect for telling the real story of the day. We simply cannot recommend him enough, he made the whole experience feel seamless from start to finish and is a
genuinely lovely guy.

Jonathan photographed our wedding in September 2022. He was more than well-prepared for the job! We had two pre-wedding meetings and a few email exchanges before the wedding and it is clear that Jonathan is very attentive to details. He would firstly look on google street view and then arriving an hour early on the day to look around for great photo spots. He is always observant on the light and where would be a best location for a photo. During photoshoot he has been considerate and well-organised. He would mop away all the water on the floor before the bride stands on it and pays extra attention to make sure that the dress doesn't get dirty. We really enjoyed his service!
