Captured the day perfectly!

Alex really was the perfect photographer! He captured all of the moments and memories of the day so perfectly!
From booking Alex to meeting up to discuss the day in advance, to Alex being there on the day everything was easy and he made it all work just how you wanted it!
We are not lovers of the forced photos but even those were so relaxed and therefore he captured so many candid moments. To be given a great snapshot of the pictures the morning after the wedding was fantastic, we were still with all of our guests so we were able to have a look through! Was in love with our photos even then but when they all arrived through this week I fell in love with them even more!
Every detail is there, every laughter and dance move was caught! We couldn’t have asked for more thank you so much!

Do yourself a favour, hire Alex!

Hopefully you'll only ever plan one wedding. When you do, it's stressful trying to work out what to sort out, how much to pay, who to hire, etc.. There's tonnes of things to think about. The photographer turns out to be one of the most important choices. They capture the memories of your day, and the pictures they take will be the ones you look at for decades to reminisce. They are also with you for a large portion of your day, so you need to pick wisely...

Just pick Alex.

He was great from the start. He worked with our loose requirements and helped us work out what we wanted. We had a couple of meetings with him in person (with him living near our venue), where he met with us in the evenings which was a huge help. Communication was great, very transparent and clear with what was going to happen on the day.

Then came the day... Alex arrived on time and had everything planned out in his head. Whilst we were getting ready for our day he was discretely capturing our interactions with our parents and wedding party. In the ceremony he was professional and made sure he captured all angles. We then wanted some formal family shots which he handled brilliantly to make sure everyone was involved and left time for us to have some amazing private shots before the meal. As the meal came to an end Alex came up to us and handed us some sneak peek, polaroid type, photos. We had no idea he was doing this for us and it really just adds that extra touch.

After the meal we had the first dance where Alex shot some more cracking photos. Then the best pictures of the day came as the sun was setting where we ran outside and Alex captured the essence of the day in his photos. Unreal. And then of course some lively dancing photos.

All throughout the day and long after the wedding, every guest was raving about "the photographer", not a bad word about Alex. The best man was particularly keen on him as Alex (bravely) let him take his second camera to snap some shots of his own. Our friends even held Alex prisoner to have a burger in the evening to chat to him.
Oh yeah also, Alex stayed later than we anticipated, only for us to learn that he had to drive a good few hours away for an early start the next day for another wedding!

Finally, the wedding blues hit. They start a couple days after the big day. But suddenly Alex sends through a small batch of photos to remind you of how good it was. And then only a few weeks later hundreds more come. All of them perfect, each one blowing you away more than the last, and you question how he had the time to get around to take them all.
And to top it all off, he helps you curate an album to be printed for you from his recommended supplier. He knows the best way to present all the photos, he works with you even after you put him on hold for weeks whilst you get distracted with life, and gets it all ordered for you once you've given it your approval.

Thanks so much Alex, easiest and most confident review I've given. We'll be hitting you up when we next need a photographer!

The Best Choice We Made for Our Wedding

The service we received from Alex was impeccable! His philosophy of natural photography captured wonderful moments of emotion, not just from my husband and I, but also from our friends and family. Before the wedding, we spoke frequently with Alex, providing location details and filling out an inciteful survey about the order of events. Two weeks before the wedding, we met Alex in person to discuss our ideas, hear his recommendations, make plans to accommodate the weather, and break the ice--which was so pivotal to the authenticity of our pictures. Every laugh was real, the highlights of the day photographed, and above all, it was fun!
We can't thank Alex enough, and we can't recommend him enough!

Amazing wedding photographer!

We would absolutely recommend Alex for any wedding photography. He was extremely helpful throughout the planning process and great on the wedding day to ensure we got all the photos we wanted. His friendly and professional approach put us at ease, and we're very happy with the stunning photos he delivered. We can't recommend him enough! Thank you!

Truly Awe-inspiring

Alex was everything we could have ever asked for in a photographer. Both my partner and I were a little nervous having a photographer follow us around all day, but Alex made us both feel incredibly comfortable and the shots he took are beyond what we could have imagined. I would implore you not to look anywhere else than Alex’s services. Not only was he professional, but clearly loves what he does, which made working with him a dream.

Friendly, fun & encouraged us to be ourselves!

Alex is absolutely brilliant! His friendly and warm character made us feel so relaxed that we almost forgot a camera was pointing at us and we could just be ourselves! He made all our guests laugh and feel so comfortable! They all said 'Alex is the best wedding photographer we've ever witnessed'! He felt like a friend, and one of our guests rather than a vendor. He read the room well, didn't make us feel pressured to take photos at the wrong time, and took the most STUNNING photos too. We will absolutely keep using Alex for all our future milestones in life!

The best wedding photographer you will find!

We could not have asked for a better photographer. We were a bit nervous about being centre of attention and being snapped all day, but Alex put us at ease immediately. So warm and friendly and also relaxed and flexible, happy to change plans when our friends grabbed us for a chat at the point we had said we would do family photos. Alex got excellent group photos and got them done really quickly so that we could make the most of the day with our friends. He somehow managed to be everywhere at once, but without anyone even noticing. He provides clear direction (for couple and group photos) and gets great reportage, natural shots the rest of the time capturing the emotion of the day perfectly. And all the pictures are stunning. A nice surprise was that we woke up the next day to find he had already sent us twenty photos from the key moments. I would highly recommend alex to anyone looking for a wedding photographer (or family shoot!)

Amazing photos, thank you!

Alex, you are amazing, the photos are absolutely beautiful and we're so impressed with how many there are! Everyone said how great you were, floating in the background and taking photos of everyone. Simply amazing. I can't recommend you highly enough, thank you so much.
