Hitched Photographer of the Year for three years running, 2022, 2023 and 2024 - Hitched

"Best Photographer in Wales - If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. From the start, we knew Keri would be more than a photographer but a good friend. He was personable, friendly and went to extreme lengths to make sure we had the best day captured. He made us feel comfortable even though we both felt goofy in front of a camera, he was always available to answer our questions - or just to have a chat. There aren't enough words to recommend Keri but all we can say is if you are looking for a day captured perfectly, this is who you want. Especially if you aren't super comfortable in front of a camera, because he'll make you feel like a model. Thanks for everything Keri!" - Tegan & Chris

Outstanding - the best photographer out there!

Keri was everything we could have asked,hoped,dreamed of in terms of wedding photography. He captured the most important day of our lives perfectly. He made both of us feel incredibly comfortable and it felt so natural through out the day. The photos we recieved back, took our breath away. The skill and talent, Keri shows is something everyone should be lucky enough to experience! We will cherish ours for the rest of our lives.

Speechless

Keri could not have been more perfect for our wedding day. From the first consultation we all just seemed to click and what a guy he really is. I'm sure it's been said before but Keri became part of the day not just 'there for the day.' He stayed until there was nothing left to shoot and his personality shone through all day. The guests loved him, the kids loved him and most importantly, so did we. We cannot thank you enough for being an absolute (as our guests have said...) Legend! ❤️

Amazing photos - quick turnaround

Thanks so much to Keri, for being great throughout the process. It was a pleasure having him with us on the wedding day.

We got a number of preview pics just a couple of days later, and have now received the full gallery. The pictures are amazing, and he managed to capture everyone there.

Thanks Keri!

Amazing Photographer & Nice Guy

What an amazing photographer. Everyone commented on how good Keri was. He was brilliant at lurking and getting candid photos and the set stuff we requested too. Was great at making me feel at ease as I am not a fan of having my photo taken and most of the time you don't even know he is there! Photos look amazing, would recommend to anyone.

Absolutely worth it

Keri was an absolute star from start to finish. We are glad we chose him for our special day! He made everyone feel at ease at every point and worked really well with other suppliers, too! Would recommend Keri 11 times out of 10!

Exceptional photographer and wonderful person.

I can’t express how grateful we are for the absolutely incredible job Keri did photographing our wedding. From our first contact with him he was friendly and approachable and made us both feel special. Keri made every effort to make us feel comfortable around him and the camera and that came across perfectly in the wedding photos. I couldn’t believe how perfect they were and even through all of the ugly faces of us dancing Keri found the beauty in it and edited them perfectly. He did an amazing job capturing every small moment of the wedding for us to remember, which included running from the bridal suite after taking photos of myself and my bridesmaids and then capturing our guests arrival and my husband and his groomsmen when they were all excited before the wedding.

I was nervous about having photos taken during the ceremony because I thought it would distract me but I couldn’t even tell Keri was there and the photos were incredible from all angles capturing every wonderful moment.

Throughout the whole wedding our guests were coming up and commenting on how wonderful Keri was and how they felt so at ease with him around.

I literally couldn’t recommend Keri enough, he’s such a wonderful photographer who really cares for each and every couple he photographs and makes you feel like you’re his only clients. Thank you so much Keri, I hope we get to see you again when our next friends get married!

Best Wedding Photographer!

Keri was a delight from start to finish . He was so personable without being pushy. He listened to exactly what we wanted and gave of his all on our special day. He captured many special moments in the most natural way. Looking back on our photos we can really see the journey of our day and how happy everyone was. So many of our guests commented on how fabulous he was. By the end of the day we really felt like we had gained a special friend. He has an eye for detail and really used the light and setting beautifully. Our album is beautiful and all the snaps are priceless. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to others. A friend of mine has already asked for details as she was blown away with our photos and him .
Thank you once again.

Perfect day, perfect photos, perfect memories. Thank you so much.

Where do we start! Believe it or not, this review has taken us an age to finalise, not because we didn’t know what to say but, because we have so much we wanted to share about Lovell photography.
In the initial planning stages we didn’t know a photographer and started looking online. Whilst we had a few recommendations from friends, we kept coming back to Lovell photography based on the style + quality of images, the friendly nature of the website and the positive reviews. Our concern was it all seemed too good to be true!
From our first enquiry followed by email exchanges and meeting Keri via zoom we realised the reviews couldn’t have been more accurate.
Keri is not only a talented, experienced and knowledgably photographer, he is such a genuinely lovely person. Down to earth yet professional, he also helped us out with recommending both a videographer (Tom Jehu Weddings) and florist ( Jenna Brazil – Bloom Street Florals) , both of whom he has worked alongside and both of whom were working with him on his own wedding.
What really impressed us about Keri ahead of the big day was his excellent communication and organisational skills. Not once did he leave us hanging on any detail, rather, he always got back to us promptly with any queries we had and, was always happy to give advice on anything regarding our wedding whether this be styles and colours of confetti, sparklers or even if it wasn’t directly relating to his photography business.
Keri took the time to get to know us and really listened to our ideas. He made suggestions and asked for our opinions. He built our wedding package around exactly what we wanted and he always double checked and clarified details.
Our wedding day arrived and, whilst we know of lots of couples who have worried about suppliers turning up or have been let down in one way or another, we had no such worries about Keri or his recommended suppliers who were all fantastic
Keri arrived on time and, instantly fit in. For the whole day he blended in, felt like a close family member who everyone gets on with and this was true for all our guests, adults and children alike. So many guests are still singing your praises Keri and close family keep reminding us how great you were – Thank you.
Neither of us are comfortable with having our photos taken yet we thoroughly enjoyed our couple photo shoots which were not staged, false or pretentious in any way. . The photos we have received are stunning, capture the day beautifully and rise above our expectations (which were already high having seen Keri’s portfolio!).
Whilst fully acknowledging how silly this next comment is, in not knowing Keri on a social level, I actually said to Mark, ‘I miss Keri’ a week or so after the wedding! We think this really highlight’s Keri’s skills, talents and personality to a T. The fact that someone you book as a photographer can be such a massive part of your wedding experience, get on with all guests, produce exceptional photos and you miss them afterwards is a true credit to Keri and the passion he has for his work . We are so grateful for everything Keri and can’t thank or recommend you highly enough. #Best photographer ever #Highly recommended is an understatement #Top of top blokes.

We loved how Keri mingled in with everyone and had lots of tricks up his sleeve to put camera shy people at ease!

Having researched several photographers, we came across Keri and loved the photos he had taken of previous weddings. We enquired if he was free on our date and arranged a meeting. Keri was the one and only photographer we spoke to, as we knew immediately that he was the one for us!!
So easy to speak to about what we wanted and the conversation just flowed, we had several people in our bridal party that we knew would feel awkward in front of the camera and when we spoke to Keri about this he reassured us that he had little tricks and ways to make everyone feel comfortable and get those natural smiles and reactions out of people. I won't spoil it for future brides and grooms, but he didn't disappoint and we had some really lovely photos of our loved ones as a result.
Keri stayed with us all day, from getting ready in the morning to dancing into the night. All the getting ready shots were natural too, no awkwardness pretending to tie up shoes or neaten ties, it was all as it was actually happening.
I don't remember ever commenting on photographers at weddings I have attended, yet all our guests mentioned how hard Keri worked making sure he captured everyone yet still managing to blend in and mingle. It really sounds like a contradiction and I'm not sure how, but he managed to create such a good impression on our guests yet still go unnoticed when he needed to, to get all those natural shots of everyone enjoying dancing and chatting.
We are so glad we went with our gut and booked Keri as soon as we could. Our photos were available sooner than expected too, during the busiest time of year for weddings!
You'll find it hard to narrow down which photos you want in your album.... you'll want them all!

Incredible

Our day wouldn't have been what it was without Keri.
Easily the best decision we made about the wedding (aside from my groom!). He was flexible to our needs, worked in a way that suited us and adopted our priorities. He blended into the day seemlessly and every single one of our guests commented about how lovely he was but otherwise didn't notice he took the pictures! We have so many beautiful staged pictures but importantly lots of candid moments that we would have missed if Keri didn't capture them and were always going to be greatful for this. He stayed into the evening to capture the party side

Prices are transparent and the process was so easy.

Perfect photos!

Keri was brilliant from our first initial enquiry. We booked an engagement shoot (which I would highly recommend) which helped us get to know each other, what to expect, like/dislike etc and Keri was so easy going and really easy to get on with. Perfect communication through out and always happy to answer questions. Our guests loved him, and our photos were truly stunning. Do yourself a favour and make sure Keri does your wedding.. you won’t regret it!

He was Amazing!

I don’t know where to start to describe how wonderful Keri was. We had an engagement shoot prior to the wedding on a day with terrible weather but keri made it fun and made us feel so comfortable and the pictures were amazing.
Our wedding day, we honestly couldn't of asked for anyone better, so friendly all our guests can stop complimenting him. The photos have captured the day so well, its like re living the day every time i look at them!

Couldn't have asked for a better photographer!

We aren't the most comfortable with photos so this was something we were worried about but Keri made it the most relaxed and easy process. I didn't think that I would love the more formal posed photos but it was so much fun on the day and having seen the results we couldn't be happier. Such an amazing mix of formal and candid photos. All our guests can't stop raving about how great Keri was on the day and how perfect the photos are. Thanks again Keri for really helping to make our day super special!
