Our wedding wouldn't have been the same without him.

Douglas was able to capture both the minute details and grand scale of my wedding beautifully. Douglas' ability to bring the colours out of my bridesmaids' dresses and the groomsmens' kilts really made the family portraits that were taken inside the venue stand out, pictures which we intend to keep as treasured keepsakes. When it came to the couples portraits, Douglas made us feel totally at ease, meaning our natural selves were able to shine through the our most intimate pictures. We also want to thank Douglas for capturing the tiny details of our rings, accessories, flowers, cake and wedding venue decorations, all of which means we have a full picture of how our big day looked - something particularly important to us as it was such a whirlwind experience. Thank you Douglas.

Very talented photographer

16/3/24 wedding - My husband and I were very pleased with his work. He is extremely kind and talented. He was well recommended by a friend and after seeing the results we are certain that we made the right choice hiring him. Our pics are impeccable.

Creative, professional and friendly

Douglas managed to capture every aspect of our wedding from start to finish, he was prompt to arrive on the day, he had so many ideas for lovely photos capturing sentimental items such as jewellery etc. the photos we received are more than just a picture they tell a story and that’s exactly what we wanted. Would highly recommend!

Captures the emotion of your event

Douglas was professional and engaging with my guests and made everyone feel at ease throughout the event.

He perfectly captured each moment and took each photo with extreme thought. He understood the importance of ensuring the photos came out perfect with his helpful direction and coordination.

I used Douglas for my engagement ceremony and again a few weeks later for my nieces 1st birthday party. Both were very different events, and Douglas was professional and pleasant to be around both times.

I would recommend Douglas for anyone who is looking to capture precious moments and would use his services again.

Wonderful wedding photos :)

My partner and I are so happy with our wedding photographs taken by Douglas. He was so well prepared, having taken the time to visit the wedding venue in advance so that everything ran smoothly. He was helpful and fun to have around on the day.
Douglas really listened to what we wanted, which was more natural and fun photos.
We especially loved that he managed to incorporate our car into some fun grooms party photos!
Overall I’d really recommend Douglas for capturing any special event.

Communicative, understanding, flexible.

Douglas and Magic offer an incredibly professional service. Douglas is communicative of both his requirements (essential), and understanding of his clients’. On the day, Douglas and Magic worked incredibly hard to capture the essential moments of our wedding, and provided our photographs to an incredibly tight turnaround.

Fantastic wedding pictures!

I was very impressed by Douglas' photography skills. He did a great job capturing both our family portraits and the atmosphere of our wedding. He organised the group photos efficiently, and I liked how the results looked more natural that way.

Douglas found the best spots to capture us in beautiful light. We had a lot of fun and it only took 20 minutes to capture a variety of different scenes.

These memories are something we will treasure forever, and it's so nice to have accurate and natural portraits and pictures to keep those memories fresh.

What stood out to me the most was his ability to capture the real, unplanned moments of our day. He seemed to be everywhere, snapping genuine emotions and the little, almost magical details that made our day what it was.

If you're in search of a photographer who can handle both the formal and informal sides of a wedding, I could not recommend Douglas enough. We are so glad that we chose him to capture our day.

Thank you so much, Douglas!

A true professional and incredibly skilled in his craft. I want to take a moment to express my gratitude for the photography services provided by Douglas. He did a great job capturing both our family portraits and the candid moments during our wedding. Moments that I will remember forever thanks to these photos.
When it came to family pictures, Douglas skilfully organised us, making the process smooth and the results look natural. These portraits are something we'll treasure for a long time. He asked us beforehand what shots we were looking for and went above and beyond to get everything we asked for and more.
What stood out even more was his ability to capture the real, unplanned moments of our day. He seemed to be everywhere, snapping genuine emotions and little details that we might have missed. Even when we thought he should take a break he was still super involved in the photography.
If you're in search of a photographer who can handle both the formal and informal sides of a wedding, Douglas is the best choice. We appreciate his work and would recommend him to others. Thanks, Douglas!

A perfect experience!

Mr. Mackenzie was the perfect photographer for our wedding needs. He worked really well with all our guests, friendly and charismatic (especially great with the kids) to help get those amazing shots. The final images were just incredible and are now sitting on our mantle with pride. We got some extra prints done for the fam, and everyone was thrilled. Highly recommend!!!

Above & Beyond

Doug was amazing at capturing the day and exceeded our expectations. He was very professional and scouted locations for pictures before hand. Best of all he didn’t feel like a stranger attending our wedding, he was a welcome addition to the event. Highly recommend.
