Peter Haken is a wedding photographer, videographer, and filmmaker based in Oxford on the River Thames. I mainly work in Oxfordshire, Gloucestershire, and the Cotswolds, but I have also photographed weddings in Devon and Cornwall.
I shoot weddings in a candid documentary style, which means I like to capture natural moments, NO POSING, NO RULES and NO FUSS; yes, I understand you may want a few group photographs, but let’s keep to a minimum and capture those genuine moments.
Couple Review Jessica & Patrick - November 2024 - Tewkesbury Park Hotel
Thank you so much to Peter for being such a big part of our special day. You went above and beyond to capture the most beautiful moments for us. Having a videographer was one of the best decisions we made, and we are very glad we chose Peter. He was very professional and made our day run very smoothly. We absolutely love our video; it is perfect. Patrick and I have watched it over and over again, and our emotions are overflowing. Thank you for giving us this gift, which we can share now with our family and friends for a lifetime.
