Couldn't be Happier!

We were put in contact with Paul through a mutual friend after searching high and low for the right photographer for our wedding day and we absolutely made the right decision.

We met up with Paul prior to the wedding and immediately felt at ease. Pauls personality made it a pleasure to have be part of and photograph our wedding day, He interacted with the guests making everyone feel comfortable whilst at times you completely forgot he was there, which is exactly what we were looking for.

Looking through the photographs from the day brings back so many happy memories that we will cherish for the rest of our lives.
Would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for that little extra attention to detail on their special day!

Perfect Photographer for a Perfect Day

We wanted our photographs to truly represent what our wedding day was....a small and intimate affair.
Paul managed to capture this perfectly. The photos really express the feelings of love, joy, hope, happiness and fun that we felt that day.
Personally, Paul was very friendly and attentive, but unobtrusive, understanding and interpreting our needs instinctively.
Paul truly added to the day and we couldn't be happier,

Fabulous Photos - fun ones, informal and formal from fun guy!

It's a shame we can't give a 7 Star rating!

We chose Paul for his informal style ... but he was that and so much more.
He blended into the background & never took over - but at the same time made sure we got all the shots that we asked for .... and so many more that we would not have thought about.
Paul captured the mood of the day from start to end while being a pleasure to have as part of our day.

Thank you so much
Wendy & Steve
