We would highly recommend you and thank you once again for making our day so special.

Dear Jack,

Both Peter and I would like to say a massive thank you for participating in our wedding on Saturday.

We could not have been happier with the service provided, professional standard and contribution to our perfect day.  So many of our guests gave us very positive feedback and were amazed by the occasion in which you played a major part.

We would highly recommend you and thank you once again for making our day so special.

We cannot wait to receive our footage of our magical day.

Best wishes,

Kelly and Peter

Perfectly Captured Our Perfect Day

I would highly recommend Jack to photograph your wedding. He produced an album of beautiful pictures that really took us back to the day. He was professional and communicated well throughout the whole process. On the day, he was organized and great with our guests. When it came to cover the more natural moments of the wedding, he was very unintrusive and let it flow. These shots were wonderful, and we didn't notice that the pictures were being taken.
He captured the day perfectly.
Thank you, Jack.

Our Wedding 30/07/2022

It has been a very wonderful journey working with Lux Vita Photography, Right from the beginning to the end of our wedding, has been completely professional with quality of photos provided. He worked with us by coming to our home, discussed and showed us the outcome of our wedding photos to our satisfaction. Taking time to explain how our final Album will be looking after completion was an excellent opportunity we had with him.
His work is excellent and would recommend to everyone.

Combining relaxed professionalism with stunning results

Jack is a brilliant photographer who will discretely capture the best of your occasion. His great humour and relaxed (yet ordered) approach made the photography into an enjoyable experience that added to the celebration. The end results were stunning and included all the technicalities you would expect from an experienced professional photographer.

Bespoke and personal photography

I would highly recommend Lux Vita Photography for your wedding photos! Jack and his assistant were absolutely brilliant on the day. Jack has been so kind, helpful and understanding from the onset. We were so impressed with Jack's bespoke and personal service especially when it came to designing our photo album. It really told our story as a couple and brought together all of the little intricate details. We could not have asked for a better service. Thank you Jack for capturing our special day.

Callie and James, wedding at Trunkwell House

When we first saw Jack at a wedding fair we could not believe the quality of his work and how bespoke the album's looked. From start to finish Jack has been amazing. He made us both feel comfortable and at ease on our big day and during the months before, it was like having a family friend take our photos on the day! We could not be happier with the products we have received. We definitely made the right choice picking Jack as our photographer. We would recommend him to anyone. Thank you for your hard work. Mr and Mrs Mainwaring.

Wedding photos for a small wedding

Very happy with our wedding pictures, Jack got all the photos that we asked for, very quick to respond and easy to talk to and calls you a couple of days prior to the wedding to go through what sort of photos you are hoping to capture on your day, very professional and patient as we had alot of children that wasn't very co-oprative but the pictures still came out amazing, also his prices are reasonable and fair we only needed a photographer for an hour as it was a small wedding and some other quotes from different photographers was ridiculous, so overall very happy with how the pictures came back and Jack's services I would defiantly recommend.

Amazing photos and album

Jack was brilliant! He collected really good photos on the day of our wedding, and created a really good album, to which we added an additional 10 pages. He has really good attention to detail. We are very glad to have Jack document our special day!

A Professional and Friendly Service

Jack is a consummate professional through and through! He listen to our needs intently and made sure we had the shots we wanted both during and after the service. He even reccomended a local shooting location for photos which turned out wonderfully. He worked well with our families but was disciplined enough to ensure we stayed on schedule for the day. The photos that arrived are amazing and something we will treasure forever. We cannot recommend Jack enough for all his work!

Excellent service

A great service, he was very attentive as well as providing a pre wedding shoot to teach us how to be photogenic and get the most from the photos. He was flexible, working around our busy schedule and in the run up to the wedding he was communicating with us to make sure he knew what was expected of him on the day and what photos we wanted so that we were happy with the final pictures.

Very fun to work with

Jack was a fantastic photographer, I'm in love with the photos provided. Some fantastic shots, and some amazing editing.
He ensured we had a variety of shots with us as a couple, and many shots of our friends and family enjoying the day.
Communication with Jack has also been perfect, he responds quickly to our messages. He was also so very understanding when we had to move the date back by 4months.
I would 100% recommend this supplier, they when a pleasure to work with, and ensured that having endless photos taken was fun experiance.
