    James blended in like one of the guests!!

    We got married August 2021 and we had a fantastic experience with James. James was originally booked during lockdown of 2020 and we had phonecalls and facetimes with him; our wedding day was on tender hooks till the last 2 months, waiting for restrictions to be fully lifted. He was so patient and understanding, of course we went ahead and from start to finish James was brilliant. The thought of having a photographer whilst I got ready made me feel quite awkward but actually, you barely knew he was there. He really did blend in like one of the guests throughout the wedding, capturing natural moments throughout. Everyone made comments on how brilliant he was! He stayed till he'd got all the shots he needed, provided us with previews and although we waited a few months for official shots - we were quite relaxed with that and understanding that weddings had spiralled since coming out of lockdown! He's only human and gave us absolutely 100%, easy to get hold of, answer questions and was brilliant with our child - she's a SEN child and he put no pressure on her and captured some beautiful shots we adore! Thank you James

    James is so friendly and genuinely enjoys attending weddings!

    James is much more than 'just a photographer' he makes the effort to go the extra mile. He was helpful in so many ways throughout our day from changing songs on the docking station, helping with zips on the dress, unloading the car, learning key guests names, making sure top buttons were done up! James does everything to make sure the day goes as stress free as possible. He makes the effort to get to know your venue and the timings to keep everything on track. He looks the part and subtly captures the special moments throughout the day. He really does just enjoy weddings and taking a million photos to make sure nothing is missed! So many guests commented on how friendly he was and have made enquiries with him for their own weddings! We cannot recommend him enough. Thank you for everything :)

    Excellent photographer

    James was the photographer for my daughters wedding,
    He was brilliant he remembered all the key family and friends names , he was so organised and professional .all the guests commented on how good he was on the day, he has an extremely good eye for detail even noticing the little things like bridesmaids strap being slightly twisted.
    He has a way of putting everyone at their ease ,I would highly recommend James .

    Highly Recommend

    James was amazing, we cannot put into words how much we recommend him. He went above and beyond for us on our Wedding day, and we have only seen the first few previews so far and they are beautiful. Everyone was so impressed with his efficiency and the care he took in the pictures as well as remembering everyone's name. We could not have asked for a better photographer.

    Highly recommended

    James didn't just take our photos, he captured our big day, allowing us to relive every perfect moment every time we look through our wedding photos. James was a helping hand even when not behind the camera, knowing exactly what to do in the swiftest of ways.
    It is also in the small touches once we got our physical photos, nothing goes a-miss.
    Thank you so much James!

    Amazing quality photos

    We can’t thank James enough for capturing our wedding day! From the moment we met James, he was friendly and made us feel relaxed so we knew we wanted him as our photographer.
    We have just received our photos from our wedding in December and they are just everything and more, they are incredible. Everything we asked for, James delivered on. Thank you once again James, you were amazing.
