Paul is a must for your wedding!
We were so grateful to have Paul as our photographer for our wedding, he made the day super easy and fun! We wanted natural photos to look back on and not spend ages doing this as we wanted to enjoy our day and Paul captured exactly that! Paul was great to work with before, during and after our special day which put us at ease.
Our photos came back so quickly and we are over the moon with them and cannot believe how great we look on our special day and that was all down to Paul!
Thank you so much for capturing our special day, we now get to relive the day through our amazing photos! -

Thank you Paul
Paul was super easy to work with. He put us at ease straight away with his relaxed style. We had lots of compliments from guests too saying how nice and chilled he was which allowed people to be themselves. Paul was incredibly responsive on email and was very flexible working with us on the day. The turnaround of the photos was short too given the busy summer period. Once we received the link to our album it was like reliving the wedding all over again. Paul really captured the atmosphere in the beautiful photos. We are delighted! Thank you for the memories.Paul Read Photography's reply:

Niki Sent on 28/03/2025Brilliant! We loved working with Paul and we loved our photos.
Paul made everything very easy and relaxed, he had great creative input, was really easy to work with and we love our photos. He was really unobtrusive during our small intimate ceremony and captured the relaxed and joy filled spirit of the day beautifully, whilst and also managing to coral our guests to get the photos done with total ease. We would definitely recommend Paul, thank you for the super photos!Paul Read Photography's reply:

Would 100% recommend
We so enjoyed working with Paul from our first meeting right the way through our wedding and beyond. The quality of his photos is exceptional, we’ve had so many complements from our guests about them. Paul is really friendly and relaxed making us feel both calm and special on the day. He took the time to understand our vibe and what we wanted, also giving his suggestions to get some really great shots. We would thoroughly recommend Paul for your big day! -

Absolutely brilliant photographer who was like a bonus guest
My husband and I spent many hours looking at various photographer’s websites. He’s a bit handy with a camera so he had a real interest in this aspect of the wedding planning. As soon as I stumbled on Paul’s website I could tell he was what we were looking for. Well taken, natural shots that tell a story. You can tell Paul’s background is photojournalism.
We spoke to Paul on a Zoom call before we booked him and we found him easy going and a laugh. We also spoke to Paul again before the wedding to discuss further what we wanted. At all times he understood the brief.
On the day itself Paul blended in as an extra guest almost. Guests seemed to really gel with him and he got in to the spirit of the fun event we had planned. A couple of friends don’t remember a photographer being there so I think they actually thought he was a guest. We invited Paul back the next day to take day after shots as we had use of the venue for a barbecue. Again it was great having Paul around to capture the day.
I’ve just received my wedding photographs. There are so many of them and they are al superb. They tell the story of the day so well I had a wonderful evening going through them. I am sure I will take many days looking through as each time I spot something different. It’s really made me reminisce. The day after shots are just superb too. There are photographs of people, decor, pets, food, laughter and hi-jinx.
If you’re thinking of Paul as a photographer, think no more, he’s brilliant. -

We could not recommend Paul enough! Not only was the end result a (massive) collection of incredible photos, but he was a joy to work with throughout the entire process. Paul did such a brilliant job of capturing the emotion of our day and it's been a joy to go relive our experience through the photos he shot for us.Paul Read Photography's reply:

Daniela Sent on 07/06/2024A wonderful record of our special day!
Paul was everything we were looking for from a photographer. Incredibly personable and accommodating - he made sure that he always kept what we wanted in mind. We knew that the day would likely be quite overwhelming and that might affect our memory of it so it was important to us that, as well as some of the posed shots, we had someone who could take really good documentary style pictures that captured the magic of the day. The photos did not disappoint! Paul was great at finding opportunities for pictures throughout the day whilst not pulling us away from the celebrations for too long which gave a lovely balance. He managed to capture everyone who attended and caught some really lovely moments. We would not hesitate to recommend Paul, he will do your day justice!Paul Read Photography's reply:
