The wedding photographs dreams are made of!

Our experience with Gavin and Sam as our wedding photographers was an incredible one. From the moment we booked them as our photographers we were given 5 star treatment. Nothing was too much and the photos speak for themselves, just WOW! We were made to feel at ease, we had so much fun whilst being photographed and our dream wedding vision was brought to life! We asked for smoke bombs, sunset pictures, sparkler moments and all of this was delivered to perfection. Having 2 photographers was the best decision we made as each photographer captures different angles and moments that would be missed with just one photographer. 100% would recommend again and again.
Love from Mr&Mrs Guest x

Alex and Robert's wedding

Gavin and Sam were part of the most magical day of our lives. Without being intrusive, they captured every aspect of the day whilst making us and our guests feel comfortable and special at all times. The warmth, humour and energy they added means that we not only had an exceptionally professional record of our day, but that we have also gained two wonderful new and hopefully lifelong friends. Thank you both so much. x

Best photographer we could ask for

Gavin was an incredible photographer. Very fun, took amazing photos and was a great personality to get the less photogenic people (including the bride and groom) to relax and take some excellent photos. Loved his fun energy and professionalism.

Perfectly Captured Our Big Day

We had our wedding early June 2023 and Gavin, from Honiton Wedding Photography, was our photographer. We had an amazing time and Gavin chronicled the wedding perfectly. He has a great sense of humour and a knack for capturing the mood. We booked Gavin just over a year before our big day and had several phone conversations planning what we wanted and then a walk through at the venue a few months before the wedding. such a great service and puts your mind at ease that you have someone who cares what we want and then delivers in bags.

No hesitation in thoroughly recommending HWP for anyone looking for a class photographer.
Thank you Gavin from me, LEO! & Annie :)

Great wedding photographer!

We were delighted to have Gavin as our wedding photographer. We organised a pre-wedding shoot with him and Sam and they were both so friendly and made us feel really comfortable. We were able to say what we liked and didn’t feel pressured into particular poses for the shots. On the wedding day, they both worked really hard to get some beautiful photos of us and our family and friends, and guests were complimentary of them. Gavin was always responsive and available to chat, and we couldn’t believe how quickly we got all the photos back - 2 week! Great photographer, who helped us with our perfect wedding.

Wedding in March

Firstly we would like to thank Gavin for capturing our amazing wedding day giving us memories to always look back on and make us smile. Gavin photographed our wedding in March and we have to say he listened to exactly what we wanted. He was easy to contact and communicate with and he had a good sense of humour which put us at ease on our Wedding day. We wanted a relaxed day with lots of candid photos and we definitely got that along with some very special group shots with our family and friends. If you are looking for a good photographer to capture your special day then we would recommend using Gavin.

Wedding photographer

Gavin was phenomenal, I honestly couldn’t recommend a photographer more! He was great at communicating the whole way up until our wedding. On the day he settled my nerves so much by being cheery, light hearted and fun with photos! He made us laugh and everything felt so natural which is reflected in how stunning our photos came out! If I could plaster his work on a billboard for everyone to see, I would. His pricing is so so affordable for the quality of work he produces, he is very flexible with timings and even came with some additional props to give our photos an extra flare! Gavin really will make your wedding day even more special.

Amazing photography experience!

Gavin and Samantha did the photograpy for our wedding a few weeks ago and we cannot recommend them enough! The photos they took were amazing, arrived really quickly and looking back at them has brought us so much joy :) Gavin and Samantha were so helpful and lovely on the day, and provided so much guidance and communication to us about the photos in the run up to the big day, which made us feel so much more relaxed on the day itself.

Outstanding Service

Where to even begin? From the moment they arrived Gavin and Sam were ready to go (despite the verbal abuse they often received from our mighty sausage dog) As a plus sized woman I have always struggled with getting my picture taken or even looking at pictures of myself but I can honestly say I felt nothing but comfortable in their capable hands! And we even received our previews back the next day which was an amazing opportunity to reflect on our busy day with a nice bottle of bubbly!

Nothing was too much of an ask for the pair, from crawling around on the floor to diving in bushes to get the perfect photo, these two really went above and beyond all expectations we had for a wedding photographer! Everyone commented on their commitment to the job and how amazing they both were!

If you're looking for a wedding photographer, you've found them! I could not recommend both Gavin and Samantha enough.

We are truly honoured you were part of our special day, and that you were so easily able to capture the love we share for each other in your photos.

I cannot wait to see the remaining photos and go through these with my Husband!

Outstanding!

After meeting Gavin at our daughters wedding (this being our daughter number 3s wedding) I cannot express enough what an outstanding job both him and Samantha did. They were both incredibly professional in a very relaxed manner. They never got in the way of any moment that photographer's like to capture, and as MOB I know how important those moments are.
Although both had a very professional manner, they were an absolute pleasure to have around and felt like part of the wedding party! Made everyone feel very comfortable with their fabulous sence of humour!
This being my 3rd time being MOB I can honestly say, they were by far the best! And that was the comments from all the guests at the wedding. Thank you both so much for an incredible experience of enjoying having our photos being taken!

Gavin and Sam are the Best in the South West!

Gavin and Sam went above and beyond on our wedding day to provide us with some fabulous images at our venue and on a nearby beach. Gavin and Sam were both polite, personable, communicative and fun to be around and put us both at ease. Absolutely recommended.

Amazing! From start to finish

Sam made me feel so confident that we would capture the moments that truly mattered, she did just that and more! Highly recommend and will be continuing to work with her, for family shoots and more. Our photographs are truly stunning - and exactly what we asked for.

Incredible person, Amazing Photos

Gavin went above and beyond for our wedding, travelling from Devon all the way up to Scotland Glencoe!! staying a few night's himself in his camper in preparation for the location of our wedding on the Loch. He really put the effort in all that he did, capturing every detail and all our special moments with pristine photos that me, my new husband and family will treasure forever!
Couldn't thank you enough Gavin, you were absolutely incredible at meeting every requirement.
Forever Grateful!
Sam and Shane x
