We booked Gary to photograph our ceremony at Chelsea Old Town Hall and then continue with us for part of our intimate dinner reception, and he was absolutely incredible from start to finish.

From our very first call, Gary was warm, friendly and incredibly communicative. We were still quite new to wedding planning at that stage and didn’t really know what to expect, so he was brilliant at walking us through everything and making the whole process feel much less daunting.

On the day itself, his experience really showed. He knows Chelsea Old Town Hall inside and out and was so helpful in guiding us, our families and our guests through everything. As a couple, you walk into the day feeling slightly overwhelmed because it is such a surreal experience, and Gary was fantastic at keeping things moving, managing family dynamics and requests, and making sure the focus stayed on us.

Although Gary is known for his candid style, he also took great care with the group photographs we wanted, making sure everyone was positioned properly, the light was right and nothing felt rushed. He was constantly thinking about the small details, from where people should stand to how my dress was sitting, while still making everything feel relaxed and natural.

He was also just such a lovely presence throughout the day. All of our guests commented on how friendly and professional he was, and we felt completely at ease with him.

We were absolutely thrilled with the photographs, and were amazed to receive them only around five days after the wedding. The turnaround was far quicker than we expected, and the quality was fantastic.

Gary is an incredibly talented photographer and a true professional. He brings so much experience, calm and instinct to the day, while still being open to trying different ideas and capturing moments you may not even have thought of yourself.

We genuinely couldn’t have been happier with our experience and would recommend Gary without hesitation to anyone getting married, especially at Chelsea Old Town Hall.

Thank you so much, Gary!

Gary was an invaluable part of our wedding day. He truly went above and beyond in helping us to plan and carry out a seamless day, capturing every special moment, and putting us and our guests at ease both before and all during the day. Many guests came up to ask where we found such a brilliant photographer! He was unobtrusive, extremely well-organised, friendly, intuitive and had good ideas on how best to capture great shots with minimal ‘posing’. We are thrilled with our photos (which he sent us the very next day!) and would highly recommend Gary to any couple getting married and looking for a stress-free experience with a professional, knowledgeable, and highly talented photographer who was a wonderful presence on the day.

Gary was great photographing our civil wedding ceremony at Chelsea town hall - he had expansive knowledge of the venue / area which was really helpful in the planning process and day of co-ordination (being very responsive to messages in the lead up). He took great photos, gave good directions and was very flexible in agreeing to stay later last minute. He turned photos with a rapid time frame and we are really happy with the output - highly recommend!

Hiring Gary was easily the best decision we made for our wedding day! If you’re looking for a photographer who delivers amazing photos while bringing the absolute best energy to your day, look no further. Every single guest raved about him. He blended in effortlessly and made everyone feel completely comfortable in front of the camera.

On our first call with him he helped us plan the entire day based on his experience. And then on the day he was flawless, he helped with everything with in such a calm, considered, kind and creative way. He helped coordinate and adjust plans as things changed - which really helped us be present and enjoy our day.
On top of that - we got photos by the time we landed for our honeymoon. They all were perfect and captured the day beautifully.
As someone that doesnt feel comfortable in front of a camera he made me feel instantly comfortable.

Thanks Gary for helping to create an unforgettable day and some beautiful pictures that we can look back with.

All of the pictures are stunning and you were a joy to have around on the day …. Thank you for all your support, it was such a relief to just be told what to do and having full faith that it will all come out great in the end - there was way too much going on for our brains to catch up with the day!

Thank you Gary for helping make our wedding day extra special. We appreciated all the care and attention you took, and your insightful knowledge of the venue helped make the experience enjoyable and stress free. We love the photographs, they are amazing and you completely captured the aesthetic that we were after. The gallery and slide show you prepared are fab and we cannot thank you enough. Rob & Cat

We found Gary through researching photographers tagged at Say I Do Islington, and he came highly recommended to us by Laura at Frederick's and hiring him was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

From the moment we met, we instantly hit it off. Gary walked us through what the day would look like, taking the extra time to explain every detail and sharing his expert advice on what works best. It was clear right away how much experience he has, especially with how Islington Town Hall operates. His insider knowledge gave us total peace of mind, and we knew instantly we could trust him to make everything run smoothly.

On the actual wedding day, he was absolute perfection. Not only were we thrilled with how he worked, but all of our guests completely fell in love with him too! He made everyone feel at ease and captured the magic of our day so effortlessly.

We couldn't be happier with our wedding day and, most of all, our stunning photos. We would recommend Gary in a heartbeat to anyone looking for an incredible wedding photographer!

Gary photographed our wedding at Islington Town Hall at the beginning of August. The whole experience was outstanding beyond words. Gary was friendly, professional, and warm. He has expert knowledge of Islington Town Hall - not only the best spots for photos, but also just how everything will run, which eased us completely on the day. If you’re thinking of working with Gary for your wedding, do it! Every guest we spoke to during the day mentioned the photographer and how great he was, which truly speaks volumes.

Gary was not only familiar with our wedding venue, but he also provided the style of photography that we were looking for - not too formal but still reflecting the essence of the day. He understood exactly what we wanted and managed to capture both the significant moments of the wedding and the whole mood of the day with some less formal shots of us and our guests. He gave excellent advice, not only in relation to the photography, managed the photo shoot with authority without being overbearing, and blended in with the occasion. We are delighted with the photos and the whole service Gary provided. We would not hesitate for one moment to recommend Gary as your wedding photographer.

Gary was incredible from start to finish - so friendly and easy to talk to. I particularly liked that when our initial conversation was just myself and him, and he wanted to arrange a second call to talk to my husband-to-be to ensure it was the right fit for everyone. Gary was great at communicating and offered lots of advice on how the day would work. On the day he was incredible, a great character who got on well with the whole wedding party and all of the guests -- he captured the day brilliantly and you can tell the story of the day through his pictures. Highly recommend :)

Gary was fantastic both in the planning and on the day itself!

He met with us before hand and completely got the vibe that we wanted for the photos and on the day in a nice friendly way.

On the day itself, he was fantastic in guiding us and our families through the pictures and made us all feel so at ease which is really reflected in the photos.

The photos themselves are amazing and we couldn’t be happier with them - would really recommend Gary!

Gary photographed our wedding and reception at Islington Town Hall. From start to finish Gary was absolutely incredible. Gary listened to what we were looking for and delivered that and more! The photos were perfectly thought out and a vision for every space possible. There were multiple weddings on that day but we were not aware due to how Gary acted like not only our photographer but a wedding planner and a friend by whisking us away from the other weddings making us feel even more special on the day! I would use Gary again in a heartbeat!

We also got a retro wedding video from Gary which everyone absolutely loves it captured perfectly what we were after!

Thank you so much Gary!☺️

Gary was an incredible wedding photographer from start to finish. We got married at Islington Town Hall, and his calm, professional approach made such a difference throughout the day. He understood exactly how everything flowed, helped keep us organised without ever being intrusive, and made us both feel completely at ease. We couldn't be happier with our photos and would highly recommend Gary to anyone looking for a talented and reliable wedding photographer. Thank you for helping make our day so special!

Gary was absolutely amazing at our wedding!

He made me and my husband feel comfortable whilst taking our couple photos and was great at helping to keep the whole day on track. The photos he took are absolutely gorgeous and really captured the day so well! It was so lovely to see photos from our guests perspectives and we were impressed by how easily he'd managed to get photos from all angles without us even noticing.

I would highly recommend Gary in a heartbeat!!
