Highly recommend!
From the moment I first met David on our wedding day, I instantly felt relaxed. David did not put any pressure on us and took photos that captured everyone naturally. Absolutely loved that David joined in with our humour. Words alone does not do David justice, his photography is just outstanding. Everyone in the wedding loved David and thought of him as part of our family.
If you want someone who takes outstanding photos, captures every moment (even when you mess up in the aisle and everyone is dying with laughter) and makes you feel at ease, David is definitely the person you need.
The only downside is having to decide which photos to print, as there is so many to choose from!

Amazing photos
David photographed our wedding in August and we are just blown away by them all.
As the bride and groom you find it difficult to get around to everyone and soak in every moment because it’s true when they say the day flies! David captured so many moments and some cracking photos of my MOH pulling her many faces.
In the best way possible, you wouldn’t have known David was there, it didn’t feel like you had a camera in your face all day: which as a camera adverse person was fantastic.
David rolled with it on the day with us getting ready and was so easy to talk to and so understanding when I said I just needed a minute, because let’s face it, weddings are stressful. The group photos with David went so smoothly. We cannot recommend him enough

David captured so many gorgeous moments at our recent wedding. He did a great job at blending into the background to get some lovely candid shots of us and our guests enjoying the celebrations. We are so very pleased with the results and would highly recommend David. Thank you again!

One of the best in the business!
We met David through hitched after looking through several photographers trying to find the candid style we were after. David met and exceeded them expectations. Our photos are the best (not that we’re bias). David was extremely welcoming, and very easy to work with on our big day. What a pleasure to communicate with someone so passionate about their work. Quicker than expected turn around as well.
Highly recommend, would give 10 stars if we could.

Definitely recommend!
David was wonderful from start to finish. We chose David for our wedding and opted for 4 hours. Within this short time frame he managed to capture some lovely photos which we will cherish forever. No picture felt forced or posed which made us feel more comfortable. David was very kind, professional and experienced within this field. The price for his service was amazing especially with the high quality photos he took. We received our photos really quickly too which was a bonus! We would definitely recommend David! Thank you so much for capturing our beautiful day.

Excellent photos by a friendly and flexible photographer
David was an excellent photographer at our wedding. Not only were our photos were first class, including fantastic candid shots that we were after, we also appreciated his flexibility and accomodations for our needs. He also provided some great suggestions and was happy to help with anything. Thank you!

Stunning Photography
We booked David for our wedding in October 2025.
We could not have asked for more.
From the initial consultation he understood exactly what we wanted.
On the day he was early and ready to go from the outset.
Throughout the day we barely knew he was there and he captured some truly amazing photos that we will cherish forever.
Cannot recommend highly enough.

Outstanding results
David was amazing. On the day he was perfect, all the shots we wanted and more. The quick turnaround of 3 days is amazing! (Highly recommend a Feb wedding for the quietness)
We will treasure the photos forever. We can’t thank you enough. The Mitchell’s.

Wonderful Photography!
David spent the day with us and I think took literally thousands of photos of our day. He was unintrusive, very polite and made very good suggestions having arrived early to get a good feel of the hotel and gardens. I now have the memory stick and I have enjoyed looking back at our day and I am starting to choose my favourite photos.

Professional, friendly photographer
We booked David over 2 years before our wedding day. From the first consultation with him, we knew we wanted him as our photographer. He was friendly and knowledgeable, and was an extremely competent photographer on the day! He made us feel at ease, and we trusted him to capture our day.
David stayed for over 12 hours, taking over 400 photos! His prices are extremely reasonable and I would 100% recommend him to anyone who is looking for a professional photographer.
