    The best investment we made for our wedding

    Booking Toby as our photographer was one of the best investments we made for our wedding day, if not the best! Toby made us and all of our guests feel really comfortable having our photos taken, and he was a joy to be around. When we looked through our album, it was exciting to find photos which, in the moment, we didn’t even notice being taken. This not only makes all our photos look natural and genuine but it also makes it feel really special as Toby managed to capture small and fleeting moments we now have beautiful photos of as memories to keep forever.

    We absolutely love the photos you took, Toby, both at the wedding and during our pre-shoot. We really appreciate all the effort you put into it, including travelling all that distance for our pre-shoot to a location that meant a lot to us. Thank you so much for everything!

    To any couples still deciding between photographers: go with Toby and you won’t regret a thing! Although some things went wrong on our wedding day, the one thing we didn’t have to worry about was our photographer capturing everything so beautifully and in a way that we can now look at only the good!

    The best decision ever!

    Toby isn't just a photographer that shows up for your day and supplies your photos a few weeks later, he becomes a friend. Our guests always commented on how lovely and approachable he was throughout the day. He's definitely someone you want at your wedding not even as a photographer, just a guest. He really adds to the atmosphere of the day!

    Both myself and my new husband are quite shy people, not really used to having our pictures taken, however, Toby is so personable he instantly makes you feel at ease. Most of the time you don't know you're being photographed. Our pre-wedding photoshoot really helped ease this anxiety which made the wedding so much more enjoyable!

    He captured the personalities of our guests perfectly. As the bride I wasn't present whilst the groom and groomsmen were getting ready, however, from just looking at the pictures, you can feel the atmosphere of the room which is lovely.

    We received so many beautiful shots from Toby. Choosing some for an album is impossible! You don't want to miss out on his expertise!

    We are now thinking of events we can have just to have Toby photograph! 😅 Thank you Toby for everything you have done to make our day special and immortalise those memories forever.

    The most amazing photographer!

    Where do we even begin?! Toby is the most TALENTED photographer and it clearly shows in his pictures. He is so professional yet it feels like you’ve known him forever! We were so worried about our wedding pictures as neither of us felt overly comfortable in front of the camera, but our pre-wedding photoshoot was the best at easing those worries and giving us the confidence for our big day. All our guests were so impressed with how organised Toby was and how he managed to capture such beautifully natural photos of everyone. We wanted a mixture of the standard group wedding photos, candid photos as well as some arty and moody ones, and Toby managed to cover all areas beyond our expectations! We are over the moon with our wedding album and cannot thank Toby enough for his amazing communication, professionalism, calming personality and ultimately the beautiful images we now have to look back on forever! THANK YOU so much Toby, you did a smashing job and we cannot recommend you enough! P.S. the robot did not take your job!

    Toby is quite simply the dream wedding photographer

    Toby is quite simply the dream wedding photographer. Not only is he phenomenally talented at what he does, but he is a joy to work with, and a pleasure to have with you on the day. We postponed our 2020 wedding by first one year, then another, thanks to covid, and Toby was so understanding and patient throughout. When the day finally came he blew us away with his photographs - he captured not just the aesthetics of the wedding, but all the emotion and vibes of the day. His photos made me cry! Thank you Toby x

    Amazing Photographer

    From start to finish Toby was nothing less than exceptional. He fitted in perfectly with the day and was just like having another guest. He managed to capture all the happiness of the day and every photo tells a story. We only had a few staged photos as both my husband and I wanted it to be more natural. The photos were truly stunning and he managed to capture all of our guests at some point during the day. Toby put me completely at ease and we could not have asked for a better photographer. I would recommend him to absolutely everybody just brilliant.

    Hersh & Rajini

    Toby was by the far our favourite vendor during our civil wedding.

    There are so many wedding photographer to choose from. What made Toby stand out was his professionalism, his commitment to his clients, his pricing, his work and his timeline. From the moment we began communicating with Toby made us feel like we were friends.

    Toby was quick to adapt to all the cultural events. He is the type of photographer that will spend the extra time with you until he gets the perfect shots. His work is outstanding and he truly cares about his work. We had our e-shoots, Hindu engagement and civil wedding done by Toby. We were completely blown away by every aspect of it - the spectacular shots you took, your presentation of our photos, the amazing editing you have done. The production value was incredibly high. Thank you so so so much.

    We highly recommend Toby for weddings. We wish you continued success and we'll be straight on the phone to you when we have another special moment to capture!

    PS. Toby is an excellent dancer, my family and friends enjoyed his dance moves!

    Hersh and Rajini xx

    The perfect day, perfect pictures

    Toby shot our wedding back in August and has done an incredible job with our photos. He captured so many special moments for us and had them back to us so quickly!! They're absolutely perfect, I wouldn't change a thing. Not only is Toby an extremely good photographer, he's such a nice guy too. Everyone was blown away with him and have commented numerous times since the wedding on how brilliant he was! Thank you so much Toby for giving us memories we can look back on a cherish forever xx

    I couldn't pick just one picture to share with you all, so here's a load of my favourites 😍

    Excellent!

    We revisit our amazing album all the time, exactly as we hoped we could. Toby captured some truly special moments for us from the excellent, clever portraits through to the candid pictures from the evening. We can't recommend him enough!

    Amazing Photographer

    Toby was brilliant from start to finish. The quality of our pictures are amazing and we are beyond happy with what we received. Everyone commented on how friendly Toby was on the day and he made everyone feel at ease. Nothing was too much for Toby and his experience shone through on the day. Both myself and my husband would highly recommend Toby to everyone.
