Sophie L. Sent on 16/11/2024Top wedding photographer!
We couldn’t be happier with Michael. From start to finish, he exceeded our expectations. Working with us from the start with an engagement shoot (which was included in our package) to photographing not just one but two weddings! He was incredibly professional, fun, organised, and an absolute joy to work with. He made us feel so comfortable on our wedding day, even in silly moments.
His creativity and attention to detail shone through in every shot, as well as attentively following our requests and last minute ideas. I loved how Michael captured every candid, heartfelt moment without ever feeling intrusive.
We’ve been blown away by the final photos—they perfectly tell the story of our day. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond to capture your wedding beautifully, is fun, kind and easy going, Michael is your guy. Highly recommended! -

10/10 would hire again
We are so greatful to have Michael capture our special day! As two people who are unsure of what to do in front of a camera, Michael made us feel comfortable and gave us direction - we are so happy with the results! We highly recommend hiring Michael as your wedding photographer!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:

Excellent experience
My wife and I chose Michael after finding him on hitched.co.uk. From the outset he was a consummate professional, from our engagement shoot, to the frequent and open communication before our wedding and then the day itself. Michael had listened to what we wanted, was easy going and congenial with guests but also managed to direct and herd them when the need arose. He delivered some excellent photos, from which we selected some of the best to go into a bound album, which was included in our package. All in all a great experience that we would highly recommend.Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Herding guests? Easy-going? Now that's a review I can get behind! Seriously though, thanks for the amazing compliment! Your wedding was a blast, and I'm so glad the resulting photos are a reflection of that. Happy to have helped create a beautiful album to relive the memories -

Cannot recommend enough!
We chose Michael as our wedding photographer after seeing his work on Hitched. He responded very quickly and was able to show us a portfolio of work which fit the bill for us as a couple! In the run up to the wedding, Michael maintained contact and ensured he had all he needed from us to ensure a smooth running of photos on the day.
It really helped that he had photographed both locations previously, so he was able to give us a great idea of what would make a perfect shot.
On the day he was incredibly discreet in terms of capturing some moments throughout the ceremony. Our guests commented on how lovely he was and how comfortable he made them feel when being photographed.
He also did the same for us as a couple - we are not big on photographs but he gave suggestions and made us feel at ease, particularly throughout our couples shots.
If you are looking for a wedding photographer for your day, do not hesitate to book in with Michael - you will not regret it!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Well, that's a relief! I was starting to worry if anyone would notice that I accidentally photobombed the first dance! But seriously, thank you for your amazing review. I'm so glad that you had a wonderful experience. -

Great service, attitude and professionalism
Michael was fabulous. Prior to the wedding he had two online meetings with us to go through what we wanted… he was flexible (o kept adding things!) and he also recommended some great ideas for shots and logistics.
On the day he was great - really amenable and pleasant to everyone, getting loads of natural shots as well as a few posed ones S per our request. Our guests commented on how he was everywhere but not intrusive at all. We cannot wait to see our final photos - if the few Michael sent over the day after the wedding are anything to go by, they’ll be fab!!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Thanks a million Hannah for such a fab review!
I’m so thrilled that you and Tim enjoyed everything, from our first chat to the final pics. Working with you both at Glenmore House was an absolute privilege.
I’m pleased we nailed those candid shots you wanted, along with the formal ones. It was great meeting up before the wedding to make sure we had everything covered – and I’m glad I could help out with the venue too!
It’s lovely that your guests noticed how I worked on the day – being unobtrusive but catching all the special moments is always the plan! Thanks again for letting me be part of your amazing day. Wishing you both all the love and happiness in the world!

Just what we were after!
Michael was the perfect photographer for our wedding. We wanted to avoid stuffy, cheesy, or staged photos, and worked with us to create our vision. He kept us and our guests at ease, creating a relaxed atmosphere that allowed personalities to shine through. Many guests complimented his friendly approach and had a great time being photographed. We aren't comfortable in the limelight, but Michael's gentle direction helped us feel natural, and the photos turned out amazing. He truly captured the relaxed nature of the day, which is exactly what we wanted. Thanks for being part of our day!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
It was a pleasure working with you both to create the perfect wedding photos. Thank you for your trust and for sharing your vision. I'm thrilled that the results exceeded your expectations -

Steven S. Sent on 12/01/2024Michael Was Amazing, We Can’t Recommend him enough!
Michael was amazing, he is so professional yet friendly and we both immediately felt at ease. He took the time to get to know us both and what we wanted. Michael was very organised and offered a very affordable service.
Highly recommended if you want exquisite shots without a moment’s stress and also happens to be an extraordinarily gifted photographer, hope we can work with Michael again for another event in the future.Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Hey Steven, Your review put a huge smile on my face! I strive to be the kind of photographer who not only delivers stunning shots but also makes the whole experience as smooth as possible. Here’s to hoping we can create more magic together soon! -
