The absolute BEST!

James was absolutely incredible. He kept in touch from us booking him right through to our wedding day. James was with us all day from myself getting ready with the bridesmaids until late into the evening. He made everyone feel comfortable and it was just like having an extra guest, he laughed and joked with our family and friends and nothing was too much trouble. Everyone who came to our wedding commented on how fab he was and how down to Earth he was. We received our sneak peaks the day after our wedding and we were blown away with how they had turned out. We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better photographer to capture our special day.

The best Photographer and the nicest Guy!

Honestly could not recommend someone as much as I do James! We've never been a couple for posing for photos, but James understood that instantly and never made things feel forced and always managed to get a smile or a natural laugh out of us as he took our photos. All throughout the day we kept getting told by guests how nice/funny our photographer was and that was one of the main reasons we booked him along with his high quality photos. The booking and payment system was very modern and easy to follow, had some fun little questionnaires which was nice to do ahead of the wedding and the Sneak peaks we got were absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much again James!

Captured the day perfectly!

When we first met James at a wedding fayre we instantly felt at ease, it was like you was talking to a friend and his photos definitely stood out from the crowd. James has been there every step of the way, checking in with us to make sure things are running smoothly, sharing tips and tricks with us and being there for any questions we might have on the run up to the wedding. On our wedding day made the environment feel calmer took time to get every shot, even of the little things. No photo ever felt forced, it all felt natural and absolutely everyone loved him and has been complimenting how good our photographer was since! We got sneak peaks the next day with was amazing and the photos was fantastic! We can't wait to see the rest and couldn't have asked for a better guy to capture our special day ❤️ 1000/10 would recommend! From Matt & Steph (the Rigbys) xx

Amazing colourful photos

James was the photographer for our big day. He was really easy going and made everyone feel really comfortable when taking the photos throughout the day. James took loads of lovely, candid photos of the two of us and all of our guests as well as some standard portraits too. He made sure that we could enjoy the day without having to spend large amounts of time away from the guests and all of the fun. We are really happy with the final photos, they are so colourful and really capture the beautiful venue and the positive vibes on the day. We would highly recommend.

Simply the best

James exceeded all of our expectations and more for our wedding photographer. He went above and beyond and from day 1 we knew we had chosen the right person to capture our day. He is organised, communicative and truly a master of his trade. He made the wedding planning process so much more enjoyable for us and having him with us through that journey and the big day has just been such a pleasure! It felt like he was just one of our friends at our wedding and he was able to capture absolutely everything often without people even realising. He is clearly so passionate about his job and it shows in all that he does. We would recommend james to anyone planning a wedding, big event - or even just a cool guy to hang out with!! Absolutely worth every penny and more.

Amazing Wedding Photographer!

We want to give a huge thank you to James for being our wedding photographer. From start to finish, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. One thing that really impressed us was how he managed to capture every precious moment without ever being intrusive. Our guests even commented on how he seemed to get all the perfect shots while blending right in!

The photos turned out stunning—each one perfectly capturing the emotions and highlights of our special day. His attention to detail and creative eye truly shine through in every picture. We were especially thrilled to receive preview photos the very next morning, allowing us to relive those moments so soon after the event.

We feel incredibly lucky to have had James document our wedding and will treasure these photos forever!

Thank you again for everything!

Would absolutely reccomend!

We chose James to photograph our recent wedding, and we couldn't be happier with the experience and the photos themselves!
James was always really organised and quick to respond to our messages, which is a massive help when you are coordinating lots of different suppliers!
He put us at ease during our engagement shoot and helped us relax, which was great practice for the big day.
On the day itself, James was fab with all our guests and captured the memories perfectly.
The thing I think set James apart from other wedding photographers is his personal touch - there were lots of details that really showed how he is happy to go that extra mile - from helping me put on my shoes when getting ready (!), to giving us small print outs of a couple of photos on the day, as my daughter had mentioned she wanted to take something in to show and tell at school.
A huge thank you James!!

Excellent all round

Thanks a lot Mike. You were great on the day, put everyone at ease and mixed around the group taking lots of casual photos just like we wanted. Put us and our guests at ease and had a laugh along the way just like it should be. Would definitely recommend. Thanks again

Amazing from start to finish

We’re so thankful for James and his photography skills! As a couple who don’t often have pictures taken we are so impressed with how our wedding pictures turned out. James captured natural and candid pictures just like we asked him too. He made us feel comfortable and relaxed, we can’t thank him enough!!
