Exceptional photography from an exceptional gent!

Jon was, without a doubt, amazing from the get go. Getting married 100 miles away from where you currently live makes finding the right suppliers tough, but from our first call with Jon his friendly nature just clicked with us and you could tell he understood what we were looking for. Like most, we're not great having our photos taken, but Jon made it easy, and pretty much unposed. Less than a week after our wedding, he sent us over some preview photos- I was expecting maybe 10,20, not over 50... And they're INCREDIBLE! We can't wait for the rest of them and we'll definitely have to buy some prints and albums because the photos are way beyond our expectation.

Jon also recommended Dave of Lakeland Films for videography as they have worked a lot together, and this was a match made in heaven too. We can't thank Jon enough or recommend him more; thank you.

Everything you could ask for!

It is a really difficult decision knowing who to choose as a photographer for your wedding, and I am so glad I found Jon from memories made photography. After scanning through lots of different photographers, what stood out to me was not not only the fantastic quality and style of his photographs but how many reviews had mentioned how Jon blended into the wedding itself and felt like he was a friend and guest rather than feeling as though you are being staged in front of a camera. I am not a posey person and felt really at ease, I never initially considered the need for good chemistry with the photographer but have realised how important that was to be relaxed and simply enjoy your special day which we absolutely did! So many of our guests have commented how nice he was. Jon is so down to Earth and has a brilliant sense of humour. I can’t thank him enough for being our photographer. The preview photographs I’ve seen so far capture the day perfectly, what more could you ask for!

The best of the best!

Jon has been absolutely phenomenal from the start. He was so easy to communicate with, and our pre wedding shoot broke the ice so we felt much more comfortable posing on the day and actually sitting down to discuss our day. Not only was he our photographer, he also helped us with tips throughout the whole day - who knew there was a right way to put rings on and throw confetti?! He just felt like a friend at our wedding, don’t hesitate to book him! Thank you so so much.

Amazing amazing amazing!

We were recommended Jon by our wedding venue, they advised as he frequently has events at the hotel he would know all the nice areas and corners to get the best shots. We sent him an email and scheduled a call. Jon was so lovely, warm and polite on our call and made us feel at ease from the get go, he took down all the information we had as we had only just booked the venue and he was the next on the list we booked in May for our December wedding which is quite late and we were so lucky he was available.
We kept in contact every month just to update on details etc and as we approached November we organised the pre-wedding photoshoot at a placed Lytham Hall, we had a coffee and chat and then went out to take some pictures, we did some posed some walking/natural. I'm so glad we did this as we could say how we work with the camera and it also eased some nerves for my Husband as he isn't really a picture person. Jon also shot pictures for my traditional bridal shower. The wedding day as always was a little hectic but Jon made sure to get all the shots I had requested, everybody loved him and I mean everyone.
Lets talk price, Jon is so so affordable we still can't believe it. From when he told us on the call to all the hours he stayed at the wedding, the time taken to meet us for the photoshoot, the additional extra's you get in the full price is just AMAZING! We also paid in monthly instalments via bank transfer which was nice and easy as the website, lets us know exactly where you are at, the final date for the cost etc so you can never go wrong, and every time a payment is made you get an invoice, which is helpful to help you keep on track as if you are like us who were working with a budget.

I couldn't recommend Jon enough, I have already had people ask me who our photographer was and I always jump at the chance to send them Jon's website and details.

If you are looking for an amazing person who just so happens to be a fantastic photographer Jon is your man!

Memories Made, really did make our day so special.

Truly wonderful

Jon is so professional, personable and easy going. He made us feel at ease the whole day and ensured he captured the best shots possible of our special day.

He was wonderful throughout the whole process from the moment we booked Jon as our wedding photographer.

Our preview shots are amazing and we cant wait to receive the final wedding photo's.

We loved working with Jon and cant thank him enough.

We will most certainly be recommending Jon and using him again in the future.

Amazing Wedding Photographer!

Jon has been amazing throughout the whole journey of our wedding from start to finish!

From the day I booked our photographer and videographer, Jon was on hand to answer any questions and helped with the whole wedding process.

When we met up for our pre wedding photoshoot, Jon explained more to us than anyone else! The way Jon explained the day and what would happen, made it so easy to understand and made us feel so much more at ease!

On the day of the wedding, he made us both feel so calm and just allowed us to enjoy the day! We got so many beautiful photographs and Jon was able to capture the most special moments.

Jon also recommended Dave, wedding videographer - who we booked through Memories Made. Dave was brilliant and it was clear him and Jon knew each other well and worked exceptionally well together! (Price below was for both Photography and Videography).

I can't recommend Jon enough for wedding photographer, thank you so so much!

Very good indeed

was incredibly professional from the moment we asked him to provide his services for our Wedding day. We met a few weeks before the event so that we could get to know each other, he could understand who would be at the Wedding ( bridesmaids, best man etc) provide us with a timeline for the event and do a practice photo shoot. I would recommend to anybody to take the time out to do this as it really puts your mind at rest.
The most important thing to say of course is that the photographs Jon took were amazing and you will be delighted with the whole experience.

Brilliant, unforgettable day

Jon photographed our wedding in November 22. We had a pre-wedding shoot with him a few months before hand which was so helpful for getting used to being photographed. He talked us through what would happen on the day and generally made us feel more at ease about everything.
On the day he was so friendly and managed to get so many great shots of everyone without us realising. We’ve had so many of our friends and family say how lovely he was. It was an early start with us getting married at 11.30, but Jon still stayed till at least 9 making sure he had shots of everything.
Cannot recommend him enough.

So glad we chose Memories Made Photography

Jon was the perfect photographer for our wedding day. Communication was fantastic and being able to meet up for a pre-wedding shoot was lovely. He listened to what we were looking for and the photographs he has captured are beautiful. We wanted a relaxed day and Jon fitted perfectly with this as he made us and our guests feel at ease with his chat and great sense of humor. He also struck the right balance between making sure we had some amazing photos to remember our wedding, but also allowing us to spend time with loved ones. We couldn't recommend Memories Made Photography more!

An incredible photographer!

Jon was our photographer for our wedding in May 2023. We can’t thank him enough. From emails, to a pre-wedding shoot, to the big day, Jon was fantastic. He is so professional and really knows what he’s doing, as well as being a lovely guy. Jon gave us great advice and ideas for photos on the day as well as being laid back and going with how we wanted to spend the day. The photos are absolutely beautiful and he has truly captured the day perfectly. Jon also recommended a brilliant videographer for us.
Thank you for everything!

Fantastic Photographer

Jon was absolutely brilliant. My son was obsessed with him and followed him around the place 😂 he was so good with him and even let him take some of the pictures. He was so friendly and the pictures are just gorgeous - better than I could have hoped for. So so pleased I booked him as I couldn’t be happier with the service, communication and results. Thank you so much!!

Mr & Mrs Baird 30th December 2022

Jon, did our wedding on the 30th December 2022. We couldn't have asked for better photographer. We spoke before the wedding, unfortunately due to various commitments we were unable to have our face to face but he made sure we talked on Skype and he offered us a print as compensation. We made a plan for the day, he talked us through what we would expect and gave us some fantastic tips for better photo's.
He stayed until 9.30pm making sure he captured every amazing moment.
Jon didn't act like a corporate photographer, he acted like a friend and that's what we loved about him.
We have received our preview shots and if they are anything to go by we are in for some amazing shots.

Jon, for my wife and I is a 5☆ plus photographer. Would highly recommend him to everyone without hesitation.
