Out of this world!

I don’t know where to start with David and Lee!
We can’t thank these guys enough. For everything. Pre wedding meetings and communication and the day was just so perfect both working in harmony and photography was absolutely fantastic.. the same day slide show our guests couldn’t believe it. I had 200 guests glued to the screen to see the live slideshow of photos from before they arrived it was just fantastic!
David and Lee caught moments with us both we didn’t know we were ready for and just wowed us both! From gentle poses that we so greatly appreciated as it wasn’t something we were so interested in but so glad we listened and just did it! It was perfection! Highly recommended!

Phil and Amelia’s wedding

What to say about David? We would 10000% recommend him to be a photographer at every wedding if that was possible!

He was absolutely everything we hoped for and more.

When I first met David, he would say I walked into the wedding fayre with absolute determination to book him and he was NOT wrong. Not only did we get the perfect package for us, he also offered a free dog photoshoot, engagement shoot and two additional little wedding albums for our parents. He was professional, humours and very accommodating to all of my specific requests (there was a lot).

Firstly, our engagement shoot. He made us feel completely at ease, even with our barking and demanding sausage dogs and he made us feel and look completely care free! The photos came very quick with the same day ‘sneak peak’ and we even used one of those photos for our wedding sign, which he was over the moon about and surprised (I don’t know why because they were amazing photos and had to be included in our wedding).

He dealt with all of my requests without an issue which made the entire process so much easier, even when I asked ‘is that okay?’ about a million times!

The day of our wedding, he made sure to get lots and lots of photos and made me look beautiful! He would make a small comment when taking a photo which would make us smile or laugh and would capture a beautiful photo off guard.

He made sure to ask what specific photos we wanted and asked for a list of certain group photos (which was about 5 pages long), but still did it without question.

He and Lee both made sure to do everything they could to make my lantern photo work which included them going to extra mile for us all! And even took amazing photos with the drone!

They made us completely at ease, let us use them for times when me and Phil wanted a minute or two alone and had bubbly personalities to help the day go smoothly and most importantly, easy.

I could NOT recommend David more to anyone booking their wedding photographer. 10/5 star rated in my eyes.

Thanks for everything David.

Book David and your magical day will be captured forever

What can we say about David… Choosing him was the easiest decision we made in planning our wedding, even before we had an official date or venue. We knew from our first conversation that he was the perfect photographer for us. My new husband was particularly sold on the idea when he learned David uses a drone!

David went above and beyond from the very beginning. Despite being on a family holiday, he took the time to speak with us and ease our concerns. He met us at our venue, discussed the shots we envisioned, and even showed us hidden gems for unique photos. On the wedding day, he delivered a rapid turnaround of countless stunning pictures.

Our wedding day was perfect, and David captured every precious moment. We'll treasure our photos forever. David's calming presence made us feel at ease, so much so that we often forgot he was there. This allowed him to capture some of the best candid moments. To ensure both of us getting ready was documented, we also had a second photographer, Lee, who was just as wonderful and relaxed.

Our guests continuously praised David and Lee’s professionalism and dedication. They skilfully captured every beautiful moment, including the hilarious mishap when my husband misheard instructions and sprayed fizzy 'champagne' all over David. Through it all, they remained patient and cheerful.

Choosing Hazlewood as our venue and David as our photographer were the best decisions we made. We cry with joy every time we look at our photos, which perfectly encapsulate the magic of our day. David captured a wonderful mix of posed, candid, fun, and formal photos. He also made sure to consider all family members, including our grandmothers who have limited mobility and my camera-shy, disabled mother-in-law, she now proudly displays many of our photos.

We even included our beloved dog in the celebrations, and David captured beautiful moments with him too. It was the best day of our lives, made even more memorable by David’s extraordinary talent.

For anyone planning their special day, don’t sweat the small stuff – just book David. You won’t regret it!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
