    A Highly Friendly, Responsive Wedding Photographer

    Kevin's customer service was second to none. From the first interaction he immediately put us at ease and reassured us that he was the right selection for our big day. He spent the time to evaluate the venue, way up all options and figure out what types of photos we would get on the day. He is highly personable and made us feel completely at ease with our choice of photographer even though our venue options were changing. He's a friendly, responsive kind chap who has your best interests at heart and the goal of your big day at the core of his job.

    If you are looking for a photographer then I must say you would be missing out if you didn't choose kevin, this was by far the best decision we made for a top class photographer.

    Kevin went above and beyond with our wedding when we received our photos we was amazed and stunned by the quality, time and effort put into them.

    I would recommend kevin any time of day

    Mr and Mrs French Review

    Kevin has been nothing short of amazing. We knew choosing the right photographer for our wedding was important. We were looking for someone that we could relate to, feel comfortable with and understood exactly the kind of pictures we wanted. Kevin was all of these and more. As soon as we met Kevin we knew we made the right decision, he is so friendly and reassuring. He listened to everything we asked for, and kept in touch to make sure he had all information he needed before our big day. Kevin is professional, and also the kind of guy you can chat to for hours!
    On our wedding day, Kevin made sure he stuck to our list of pictures that we requested. He also went out of his way to surprise us with some gorgeous pictures that we never even knew we would have loved. He has a real attention to the little details. Kevin worked tirelessly all day, with no second wasted. He put so much energy into making sure he didn’t miss a moment, and we are so grateful for that in the amazing range of pictures we have from our wedding.
    The pictures Kevin has taken are beautiful, the quality of them are better than we could have imagined, we can’t wait to display some of our favourites. We ended up with so many good pictures it’s still hard to choose favourites! We have had so many compliments from guests on how great Kevin was on our wedding day, people ask us how I found him, and it was by chance Facebook as he lives locally! I’m so glad I did, I would recommend Kevin to anyone getting married. I wish Kevin all the best in his photography journey, he deserves all the credit he gets and it’s great to see that other people have said the same.
    Thank you Kevin for being a special part of our wedding and capturing our day so beautifully!

    The best wedding photographer on the market!

    I would like to start this review by saying there was not enough stars I would like to give Kevin, 5 just doesn't seem enough!

    We had booked Kevin for our wedding after we experienced him for my sister's wedding he was amazing for them so the decision was easy.
    We did not regret a thing from start to finish Kevin was the ultimate professional and our expectations exceeded anything we could think of. His kindness and charisma really shines when behind the camera. Kevin makes you feel comfortable with every shot. His eye for photos really resonated with us with his candid shots, we loved every one. On the day Kevin made everyone smile and even managed to catch the most photo shy people and that's a challenge in itself.
    His knowledge of the venue was brilliant he knew all the best spots and his work speaks for itself.

    So if you are reading his review thinking about hiring Kevin, do it! Trust me that you won't regret it

    The biggest thank you

    I don’t know where to start with thanking Kevin for the amazing memories he has helped capture from our special day.

    I initially reached out to Kevin about 18 months before our wedding and Kevin has been nothing short of friendly, approachable, supportive, reliable and understanding.
    From the minute we met Kevin after he agreed to come and view our venue for an open day, we immediately felt at ease around him and knew we had made the right decision without a doubt. Since that moment, I have messaged Kevin so many times with all things wedding and never felt that he was not interested in something, whether it was about burying a sausage in the garden, showing him some DIY decor or generally discussing our day, Kevin always made time to reply. Fast forward to the day and within minutes of him arriving again solidified we had 110% made the right decision, we had so many guests saying how brilliant he was on the day, his friendliness, approachability and professionalism shone through. Kevin made us feel totally at ease on the day, there was never any pressure put on anyone and he could tell when people needed a break (drink!)
    Wedding planning isn’t easy, but having Kevin made things easier. I feel like we’ve gained a friend in Kevin and we are so grateful he was able to be such an important part of our day and capture the moments we will cherish for many, many years to come.

    If the rest of our photos are anything like our sneak peek, which I’m 100% confident they will be, then I know we completely made the right decision with putting our trust into Kevin, the photos are beautiful and Kevin makes such great use of natural light and natural landscape to perfect the photos.

    Thank you again… I am sure you will continue to hear from us!

    It was good getting to know Kevin, he was very professional

    His photographs are beautiful and we couldn’t be happier with him. His service is outstanding and we will be recommending him to everyone who we know getting married. He took such beautiful natural photographs and did everything we asked for.

    Mr & Mrs Belo

    We had the pleasure of booking Kev for our wedding! We also booked the pre engagement shoot with him, which was a blast!
    Kev made us feel relaxed and had a lot of fun on this shoot and was a great ice breaker to get comfortable with the camera and with him. We picked a location where we got engaged in a middle of a field, let’s just say Kev was not afraid to get down and roll around in the grass for us! He has a great energy and made us feel comfortable.

    Kev was also very very adaptable with us! From a bride who decided to cancel their big wedding fairly last minute in the wedding industry terms, to have a smaller intimate party! He was more than happy to meet with us and reassure us it was okay for the change of plans as we kept the date the same. We then had no idea what we wanted captured for our new ‘wedding’ but he really did amazing.

    He came along to the registry office and capture some beautiful moments with myself and husband, and the family that surprised us by turning up! He hustled to get the unexpected guests into some lovely group shots and was great with the kids.

    Our after party we gave the brief of ‘just capture the party’. He done this so so well and was literally everywhere at once even when we didn’t realise, his energy is unmatched! Kev was professional, bubbly and friendly with all our guests! We’re very happy with his service and the pictures provided!

    We had great communication and updates through out our time with him. Would highly recommend anyone to use him!

    Above and beyond

    When considering a wedding photographer, my partner and I honestly didn't know where to start. When we found Kevin and after meeting with him at a local coffee shop, we knew he would be perfect. Kevin's communication was always timely and very clear from the start. We knew we could get on with Kevin as a professional (and even as a great guy!).

    On the day, Kevin arrived early and stayed late! He seamlessly integrated himself into the joviality of the day (adding to the atmosphere) even jokingly telling a close friend 'it's not about you!' which we all found hilarious!

    Kevin managed to navigate some difficult family situations (that we had discussed prior to the day) with calm tact and grace. Due to his amiable manner, tricky situations (family politics) were avoided.

    The photos themselves were beautiful. We loved pouring over them and relieving the moments he captured. At so many points I found myself saying 'I cannot believe he got this'. In many other pictures he has found a beautiful lighting and made my wonderful wife even more beautiful and even made me look like I have a tan in a couple of snaps.

    Kevin's communication after the event was spot on. He kept us updated as to receiving the photos, which are easily available on a memory stick or behind a password on his website. Many friends and guests commented that they loved looking at them too with the link.

    Overall, Kevin's service was of the highest quality. My partner and I often feel we have a habit on stumbling into the best choice for things. We know with Kevin we did just that and we couldn't have asked for anything more.

    Thank you again Kevin,

    Chris and Victoria Townsend-Nederend

    Amy and Mathews wedding

    So pleased we picked Kevin to be our photographer on our special day. Kevin is such a lovely man, very professional and made us feel at ease on the day. He took some amazing photos we will treasure forever and was really good with all the children. 10 out of 10!

    Our May Wedding

    Kevin was absolutely fantastic as the photographer for our wedding. From our first enquiry’s, through the wedding itself and during all the editing process, he has been friendly, open and communicative every step of the way. Kevin worked brilliantly on the day with the challenge of getting great pictures despite having nearly a dozen small kids as part of the wedding party. We absolutely love the photos and have been enjoying going through them since we received them. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Kevin as a wedding photographer to anyone and hope to use him again in future for family photos and events.
