About

I'm David, founder of David Bostock Photography, a professional Oxfordshire Wedding Photographer based in Kings Sutton, right on the Oxfordshire and Northamptonshire borders, and I truly feel honoured to capture the love and joy of couples on their wedding day.

With over 18 years of professional wedding photography experience and having photographed more than 550 weddings, I've had the privilege of creating heartfelt, authentic images that reflect the unique story of each couple. My work has been recognised both in the UK and internationally.

For me, wedding photography isn't just about taking pictures—it's about capturing the emotions, connections, and memories that mean the most to you.

The Services I Offer

I offer a range of carefully crafted all-inclusive wedding photography collections, all designed to meet your individual needs and make your day as seamless as possible. Every collection includes final edited high-resolution images for you to keep, five complimentary 12x8-inch prints, and a secure online viewing gallery, and most of my collections also importantly include a beautifully designed luxury wedding album to cherish for years to come.

I also invite couples to book a pre-wedding photo session before the big day. This is a wonderful opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera, and for me to get to know you both better so I can capture your genuine connection on the day. If you'd like extra coverage time or a second photographer, I'm more than happy to accommodate these options to ensure your day is captured exactly the way you envision.

Our wedding photographer -December 2025

David was utterly brilliant, by far the best choice and best-value choice we made for our wedding. His photographs are superb. It absolutely poured down on the day but he kept us calm and was so flexible, working around the terrible weather. He is kind and funny and very personable. All our guests loved him too. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Exceptional wedding photographer

We had the best experience with David as our wedding photographer at our September wedding at Cliveden House. From the very beginning, his professionalism, attention to detail, and calming presence made everything feel easy and seamless. We did a really fun pre-wedding shoot to get to know David and get comfortable with what to expect on the day. He also took a detailed note of what we absolutely wanted to capture on our wedding day so that we didn’t miss any key moments.

For our wedding day itself, David knew Cliveden House so well and guided us to the most stunning locations for photos which we would never have known about otherwise. We felt like we were in such safe hands which took pressure of us so we could enjoy our big day. We knew from his portfolio how talented he was and we were so thrilled with the end results, capturing moments we’ll treasure forever.

David was wonderful with our guests too and put them all at ease. We heard countless compliments about him from our friends and family. He was so friendly, warm, and thoughtful, whilst also making sure he was able to capture everything that we asked for. David’s entire process was smooth and stress-free, and we truly felt we had nothing to worry about. He captured the magic of our wedding beautifully, and we can’t recommend him highly enough!

Truly stunning photos

Truly stunning photos. David was a joy to work with and we couldn't be happier with our photos. The whole process was simple, stress free and, while neither of us are particularly comfortable or natural in front of the camera, we felt at ease throughout all of the photographs. We will treasure them for years to come. Thank you again David for all of your hard work, I have and will continue to recommend you to everyone that wants the best photographer in the business.

Amazing photographs of our Cotswold wedding

We simply can't recommend David enough – he's utterly brilliant! From the moment we started planning, David was incredibly organized, making sure every detail we wanted for our wedding photos was covered. The practice shoot at The Studio was such a smart idea; it completely put us at ease and gave us all the confidence we needed for the wedding day. When the day arrived, David was our sense of calm amidst all the excitement. He handled everything seamlessly, capturing every shot we'd discussed. When it came to our couple's photos, his wonderful humor and personality made that it so natural and fun. David is super friendly, incredibly professional, and we're so excited for the day that our final printed album arrives, so that we can relive the day through our photos forever. A huge thank you David, for being such a brilliant part of our wedding! Best wishes, Charlie and Adam x

A consummate professional....!

We couldn't have picked a better photographer for our English country 'late in life' wedding in the beautiful Chiltern countryside (Penn, Buckinghamshire). With our penchant for black and white photography yet the need to capture the warmth of the day, David's demonstrable award winning experience in this field made him the perfect choice for our church wedding! We were delighted with the images and would not hesitate to recommend him for your special day!

Fantastic Photgrapher

David was brilliant from start to finish. Don't hesitate to book him for your big day. He made us feel totally at ease throughout the whole process and left us with some beautiful photos. Having a very experienced photographer is very important as they tend to run the day. This makes David the perfect choice as he makes sure that you don't have to think about a thing! Thank you David you did a brilliant job.

If you're stuck choosing a photographer, don't think twice about David

Words can't begin to express how amazing David was as our wedding photographer. A chance encounter with David at Hedsor House and we instantly fell in love with his photography and the gorgeous Queensbury albums on display. On top of that, he followed up with several zoom meetings prior to our wedding day, really taking the time to be attentive to every detail and even fit himself around our busy schedules at ungodly hours. My husband and myself aren't the most naturally photogenic yet David was so easily able to manoeuvre our positions and shots, to capture us in the most beautiful way, whilst also taking the most wholesome candid moments with our family and friends. Even with my husband and myself being of African and Asian heritage, David truly respected and appreciated the details of our cultures and captured them beautifully. If you're stuck choosing a photographer, don't think twice about David

Amazing photos!!

David is such an amazing photographer, who really took the time to discuss our vision for our wedding and was so supportive throughout the entire planning process. He is so experienced in knowing which shots work best and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. After our wedding, he was so helpful in putting together a lovely album. We highly recommend him to anyone planning a wedding!!

Our day, Our very mad, fun, special day.

David made our experience a very smooth ride. We met during an open evening at our chosen wedding venue and he oozed all the right things. Charismatic, experienced, he walked us through the unknown with his easy going manner. That contrasted with is precision bombing on composing the formal photos and his discretion and invisibility when capturing the casual stuff during the diverse events of our unforgettable nuptials. Unforgettable, in part, due to him.
Thank you, David.
And how did you get the weather to be so good? We still think it was you behind cloudless skies!! I did not see you in Harry Potter.

A Magical Wedding in Windsor

David was our first choice for a photographer. It turned out to be a spectacular choice.

Our wedding took place in Windsor. We knew that we must find a very professional photographer in order to capture the uniqness and magic of the town and selected venues, as well as capture our special moments. David did all that - and more.

As we are not from the UK, the process of planning our wedding from afar was challenging, but David helped us make it as easy as possible. We've had a number of video chats and email correspondences about our requests and desires, and David helped us focus and build a great pre-wedding photoshoot schedule. He also pointed us towards various beautiful locations in Windsor to choose from.

David was always professional, understanding and flexible, and he explained everything in great detail, which was very important for us. At the day of our marriage, he was there with us from 8:30 AM, made us feel comfortable and enjoy every moment of the pre-wedding photoshoot. He also made many great suggestions for photos.

The photos taken by David were everything we'd hoped for and more. They are simply stunning. David also took care of editing the photos, he guided us through the album-creation process and showed us examples from past weddings. It's unbelievable how high quality and beautiful his albums are, and we can't wait to receive ours!

For conclusion, we truly recommend hiring David for any event. He knows his field inside-out, his products are beautiful and his service is warm and professional. He managed to capture the magic and atmosphere of Windsor beautifully. Brava, David!

Perfect moments captured at Kirtlington Park

It was almost 2 years between us first meeting David, having our pre-shoot and finally getting married. The dreaded Covid led to 3 date changes and rescheduling hell! It was a painful experience but David was so nice and reassuring with every change and whilst many of his clients were going through the same situation, his approach and correspondence was very personal. I mention all of this just to express how nice David is and importantly he makes you feel very comfortable - you need to feel comfortable with your photographer! Hardly naturals in front of the camera we went for David's pre-shoot which absolutely served its purpose - we got to know David much better and felt a lot more at ease for the big day. We love David's style and his accolades speak for themselves and we had complete trust in him. Having received our photos, his skill in capturing those moments that could be gone in a second is unquestionable. David has a great energy and really got the crowd going for the big group shot - such a great photo! In the nicest possible way, David blends in to the background on the day - he is very discreet and unobtrusive whilst managing to capture those perfect shots at every stage of the day. From an organisation, correspondence and responsiveness point of view - all perfect and we had no issues - Thank you David and Helen! Would highly recommend!

Caswell House Wedding - August

Wow, wow, wow!

We cannot express enough how grateful we are that David shot our photos for our wedding. From meeting him at Caswell House open day, we were blown away by his professional manner and talent. After having to postpone a year due to COVID, David accommodated us and made things stress free and we were so glad we could still have him shoot our wedding. On the day, David bought fantastic energy to everyone around him and we had many comments from our guests and family about how brilliant our photographer was. He had fantastic rapport with everybody (including my lively bridesmaids!) and everyone felt at ease in his company - even those we knew hated having their photos taken. David kept the momentum and energy going even during some parts of the day when it was raining (some brides may feel this is their worst nightmare to have rain on the day but he made this fun and helped us see all the positives in this!) Luckily, we had a break in the rain and he captured even more fantastic shots.

We have been lucky enough to see a sneak peek of our photos and we absolutely love them - from what we have seen they already capture the emotion and laughter from the day and we are so excited to see more!

Thank you so much David (and to your lovely assistant Helen too!) - we cannot recommend your services enough!

The Best Photographer

David captured our wedding last year at Caswell House. After getting in touch with him in a relatively short time before our plan for a smaller COVID wedding we knew he was the photographer we wanted. He was very professional on the day and captured the day so perfectly and sensitively down to every last detail! Going through all of our pictures David has sent us over, we are totally BLOWN AWAY!! We cannot recommend him highly enough and we cannot thank him enough. Thank you David.

Love Mr & Mrs Orchard x
