About

On Hitched.co.uk since 2022

Last update: April 2024

Hello, thanks so much for visiting my profile! My name is Brad, and I’m a wedding and family photographer based in Bedfordshire. I predominantly work across the home counties (Herts, Beds & Bucks) but am more than willing to travel all over the UK and beyond when required.

I shot my first wedding in 2017 and immediately knew this is what I wanted to do long-term instead of working a standard 9-5 office job. My photography style and approach is very relaxed and natural, using a documentary style with some creative storytelling to enable me to capture all of the happiness, joy and emotion of your special day. My main objective is to help document your day as it happens and to intervene as little as possible.

I believe that my natural approach helps to capture the truest moments of your special day, and previous clients say that these are the photos they treasure the most: the look in your father’s eyes when he sees you in your dress for the first time, a proud Mum wiping away a tear, the laughter between friends and the love in your eyes as you share your first dance. These moments can’t be staged or repeated, and these are the genuine interactions that I love to capture, for you to cherish.

Please do get in touch if you like my style of photography – I’d love to be part of your wedding!

Highly Recommend!!

After searching far and wide across London, Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire for a photographer for our wedding, we came across Brad Gommon Photography. It was his impressive portfolio that did it for us! He had the best night photos and he exceeded expectations. Brad really put us at ease throughout the wedding planner process and made very good suggestions, which we are extremely grateful for. Brad was super organised, arrived earlier than expected and was very professional. He wasn't intrusive at all, and picked the perfect moments to take photos. He went above and beyond to ensure he took the best photos for us and made us feel comfortable throughout. We also got on a personal level, he is kind and super creative. His photos were incredible!! We are so happy and privileged to have had Brad as our wedding photographer. Thank you so much Brad! Those looking for a photographer, stop your search and look no further. Brad is the one for you!

I would recommend Brad to anyone in a heartbeat as a photographer

We had first noticed Brad at our best friend's wedding, as he was their photographer. He was so friendly to the whole wedding party (not just the B&G) that I knew when we got married he'd be a great person to spend the day with snapping pics. When the pictures came back for our friend's wedding the images were fantastic - vibrant and caught special moments.

Brad was great on our day, he even helped us find our videographer for the morning and ceremony also whom he recommended, and they worked together really well to make us all feel comfortable and capture the important fleeting moments.

What I ended up really impressed with were Brad's ideas on the day, for example he asked the staff to move our cake from the corner of the room to the centre of the dancefloor for cake cutting, and they are some of my favourite photos as it turned cutting the cake into a really special moment where we were centre stage.

Brad kindly sent through about 8 pics as early as possible after our wedding, which were lovely to have and share with family before the final album was ready. You find yourself itching to see the pics and relive some of the day so this was massively appreciated.

I would recommend Brad to anyone in a heartbeat as a photographer; you couldn't meet a nicer or more professional chap and the results speak for themselves - stunning picture quality. Thanks again Brad!

Everything was great

Highly recommend. We are so happy with the photos and love the shots he got & how he edited them. We FaceTimed twice before which was great customer service. He sent us photos the next morning so we had some to post on socials. 5* for everything.

Professional, fun, fabulous!

BOOK BRAD NOW!! :)

Brad and James photographed our wedding at Dodford Manor in December 2022. My husband and I aren’t used to posing for photographs and we are definitely not ‘picture perfect’ people but Brad definitely made us look as though we were! We had so much fun with Brad and James. They made us feel so comfortable and we had such a laugh with them. Brad and James are really creative and will give pretty much anything a go! They know what looks good and will suggest places, how to stand etc. Brad got our photos back to us in 3 weeks and sent us some teaser photos almost immediately after the wedding. We couldn’t recommend Brad enough, our photos are more than we could have ever hoped for and he’s such a lovely person! Thank you so much Brad!

Excellent Photographer

We chose Brad as our photographer because we loved the range of images in his portfolio - a mix of the spontaneous moments, the formal family and friends and the ‘wow’ artistic shots. And this was certainly reflected in the images from our big day - we loved the floating veil (though we had to be persistent, who knew there was a right way to throw the veil up!), the sunset, the moments of us as a couple and those candid camera moments showing everyone having a great time.

Brad was wonderful to work with - really easy on the big day and we had every confidence with him. Prior to and after the event, Brad kept us in the loop and we really valued his input and suggestions.

Brad is fantastic

Brad was absolutely fantastic before, during and after our wedding! He made us feel comfortable throughout the day and our guests all thought Brad was lovely! He captured all the highlights of our day with a mixture of posed and candid photos and was so subtle we hardly knew he was there!
We would thoroughly recommend an engagement shoot as this made us more used to posing for photos therefore were more relaxed on the day!

Fantastic service from start to finish!

We don’t know where to start with a review on Brad, he was simply wonderful from start to finish, from the initial meeting we knew we felt instantly relaxed around him and reassured he had everything under control when photographing our wedding.
Not only did he take some breathtaking photos of our special day, but he also made everyone around him feel comfortable, including knowing how to chat and interact with the children to get the best photos from them too- and he fitted in so well among the guests, everyone commented on how nice and friendly he was and also how thorough he was throughout the whole day, guests have now also seen his work and have said if they needed a photographer in the future, Brad is who they would go to!

Thank you so much Brad for capturing all the special moments of our Wedding day, you got all the shots we would possibly want and we will be looking at them for years and years to come ❤️

Bride and groom

Brad photographed our wedding in 2021.

From the numerous conversations (and changes of date due to covid) Brad was informative, approachable, friendly and professional.

Leading up to our wedding correspondence was great and we were never left wondering what’s happening.

The morning of the wedding Brad arrived and almost became ‘invisible’ snapping away and getting every shot of both of us separately getting ready for the day. Brad went above and beyond on our day from photo opportunities with smoke bombs to standing in a road to get the right shot!

We were so impressed with our photos and have them around our home as a daily reminder of our wonderful day. Thank you Brad for capturing the best day, celebrating with friends and family and for giving us memories to look back on forever.

Better than we could’ve asked for!

Brad was absolutely amazing, we could not recommend him more! The pictures are incredible and we were so so happy that we chose him as our photographer! There were a few things that were not easy for him (our three year old being one of them haha and the early sunset and late wedding meaning there was not much time for photos with natural light, oh and surprise singing waiters) but Brad and was amazing throughout he made sure to reassure us and not only that he went out of his way to get to know our daughter so she would feel comfortable around both himself and the camera! He captured so many beautiful moments and he’s such a creative person! We had seen his work before booking him and leading up to the wedding and we knew we wanted some of his artistic shots and we could not be happier with the results! He made sure to keep in touch with us in the build up to the wedding, he really does think of everything and put your mind as a couple at ease! All the photos are amazing, he was coming up with ideas throughout the day, we cannot say enough good things about him! We had guests saying how brilliant he was, we are so glad we had him as our photographer and would recommend him to anyone else looking!

If you want a friendly, down to earth, professional photographer to capture your day naturally, Brad is your man.

Brad was the perfect choice of photographer to capture our wedding day. It was evident from our first communication with him that he was both incredibly friendly and professional, making us feel immediately at ease. From the outset, Brad was always on hand to answer our questions and the catch-up video call a few weeks prior to our big day enabled us to run through the plan with him. When he arrived at the bridal suite on our wedding day, he was so calm and positive, which was exactly what any bride needs whilst they're getting ready. He was happy to chat with us all and get to know us, so that he could capture the natural moments. One thing we loved about Brad was his ability to effortlessly blend in with our guests, so he could achieve candid photos easily; everyone absolutely loved him and were still raving about him the next day. The group photos were a breeze with Brad behind the lens. During our couples' shoot, as well as throughout the day/evening, Brad was full of creative ideas and poses which helped both of us relax and have a laugh with him - it really felt as though Brad had got to know us during the whole process and knew how to reflect our personalities. Not only this, but he quickly sent through a sneak preview of some of his photos, which were so lovely to receive the day after our wedding. The photos are stunning and we cannot wait to see the rest of them in a few weeks. We would 100% recommend Brad to anyone who would like a friendly, down to earth and highly professional photographer.

Wouldn't have had anybody else!

Brad was one of the first suppliers we booked for our wedding. I came across him on instagram and was following him for quite a while as my husband and I were really impressed with the photos captured and how they were edited. It's always scary making your decision on picking a photographer because they will capture photos that'll last a life time. As it was such an important step to make, initially it was quite scary so I entered Brad's giveaway hoping that we would win and he would make the contact haha! What a result! And to be honest I don't know what I was afraid of!

So, Brad, where do we start? ‘Thank you’ honestly doesn’t do, what you did any justice. You were absolutely incredible on our wedding day as well as being so helpful before and afterwards.

We know Essex isn't the area that you specialise in and the fact that you showed excitement about our wedding was such a positive and the fact that it was a bit of a distant never bothered you. We aren’t normally ones for photos but you made the whole process seem so effortless, easy and fun! Right from the morning up to the evening, we were your priority and you really wanted to capture the best photos for us. You’re such a nice, easy going and down to earth guy who we got on with so well and couldn’t think of anyone else to capture our special day.

Even our guests commented on how great and lovely you were. Every time we look back we are reminded of how amazing you were and how much fun we had together. You really were a HUGE part of our day and we will be forever grateful! Thank you so so much, we miss you already!

Honestly, I couldn't recommend Brad enough and anyone who books him will be in safe hands and will have a blast!

Couldn’t have wished for more!

We cannot thank Brad enough for his incredible work for our wedding. He was comprehensive in his meetings before the big day, quick at responding to any questions that we had and was more than happy to work around that we wanted in our wedding photographer. He helped the day to go without a hitch and we both felt so comfortable around him. The photos are incredible and the turn around for photos was so fast as well. Thank you so much Brad!

Top quality and flexible, I would highly recommend Brad

Brad photographed our Wedding in August 21' and he was fantastic! He is a talented photographer who flexes to the needs and asks of his clients. He was helpful before the planning when thinking about what I would like, adding creative hints that we would never think of. On the day he was attentive and captured the preparation, the ceremony and reception in exquisite detail.
We have an amazing set of pictures that we will cherish forever!

Can’t recommend enough!

Brad, what can we say, you were absolutely amazing on our special day. We can’t thank you enough for everything you did to make sure you captured the most incredible memories for us. When we received our edited pictures we were blown away by the way you had managed to tell our story. You captured all the special moments and emotions perfectly and we could not have asked for more! Thank you so much. We would highly recommend you and both feel It was a pleasure to share our wedding day with you.
