One of our best decisions!

Paul was amazing! We had a brilliant pre shoot and used the photos to display on the day and our wedding newspaper. On the day he gave us so much direction, made us feel comfortable infront of the camera, he was professional and funny! His passion for his work really shows in our beautiful wedding photos. You’ll be in safe hands having Paul as your photographer, so grateful to have him on our special day!

The best!!

A work colleague recommended Paul to us, and the moment I saw his work, I knew he had to be our wedding photographer—this was even before we had chosen a venue! Leading up to the wedding, we chatted with Paul several times so he could understand our vision and get to know us. From the very beginning, he was amazing.

On the wedding day, we had the added bonus of a second shooter, Viv, who is just as talented and wonderful as Paul. Our stunning photos reflect how natural, relaxed, and fun Paul was throughout the day, perfectly capturing its true spirit. Many of our guests have said the same, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. We feel incredibly lucky to have had Paul and Viv as part of our day!

A friend not just a photographer🤍

Paul has been nothing short of phenomenal from start to finish, his patience, kindness and humour helped fill our day with utter joy. Paul goes above and beyond on the day to help everything run smoothly and hiring him is like hiring a friend for the day🤍 Words cannot express how grateful we are to have found Paul, his work speaks for itself in all its beauty, capturing every single moment from small interactions to the major events on the big day!

Our pictures are complete perfection and we are over the moon with every single one! We can’t wait to look back on them in all the years to come. ☺️

We cannot thank Paul enough for capturing our special day with his incredible photography! We’ve just received our pictures and we are over the moon! It’s not just his work that makes him a top photographer, his personality, sense of humour, and all round awesomeness made our day even more unforgettable! If marriage wasn’t a one off, we would use Paul again and again without question. Thank you for being a legend!!

Paul's photographs are beautiful, professional and capture every real moment.

If you are looking for a photographer who will capture your day beautifully, every special moment, every laugh and have fun with you along the way, Paul is your guy!

I met Paul at an open day for our wedding venue and as soon as I saw his portfolio I knew we had to have Paul capture our wedding, his pictures really do speak for themselves. From the moment I booked with Paul he was helpful, easy to talk to and showed so much enthusiasm for our day, I found the whole process so easy and stress free from start to finish which I can’t thank Paul enough for.

When Paul turned up on the wedding morning we felt so comfortable with him and loved having him with us, he kept the energy up all day and you could see the excitement from him whilst taking pictures which was lovely, it made the whole process so fun and made us feel natural in front of the camera as we were laughing along with Paul all day. Some of the suggestions Paul had for photos have turned out amazing and he was on hand to give any direction required but also capture natural in the moment shots. All of our guests absolutely loved Paul and even 2 weeks later are talking about how great our photographer was.

Paul captured every moment of our day from start to finish, he has exceeded my expectations in every way. The effort which Paul puts into his job with going above and beyond I am so grateful for. I couldn’t wait to see some of our pictures and to my surprise I woke up the day after the wedding to some photos from Paul and a reel of our day which I will treasure always and was unaware Paul had made. Not to mention we had the full portfolio back within 2 weeks of our wedding which was completely unexpected.

Looking at our portfolio we have been blown away by the quality of the pictures and the special moments Paul has captured which we will treasure forever. Some of the photos I didn’t even realise Paul was there for and others bring back memories of us laughing while taking them.

We would highly recommend Paul Aston Photography for anyone looking for the most beautiful, natural, in the moment and also fun wedding photos, his talent is unmatched.

Thank you again Paul for everything, we are forever grateful!

Perfection

We were recommended Paul by our venue (Crowcombe Court) and what a hell of a recommendation it was! Not only were we super happy with our photos and how quickly we were able to view them, but we were just so pleased with how Paul lead the way with the best spots to get pictures and the best poses.

At no point did we feel awkward or uncomfortable, he made us feel so at ease. The inspiration I gave him was absolutely clear in our photos.

In hind sight, I’d have paid double knowing how perfect he was as a supplier. Not only was he a great photographer but he actually had a huge influence on the schedule and smooth running of the day and I honestly don’t think I’d have enjoyed myself the way I did without his support.

Massive massive thank you to Paul and if you are sat on the fence with who to book, look no further. I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Incredible Wedding Photography

Paul was just the perfect photographer for our day. In the build up to our wedding, he was approachable about any questions we had and was very accommodating of any last minutes changes or additions. On the day, he had an incredible energy that made us both feel so comfortable and natural for the photos. The photos we now have of our wedding day are absolutely amazing. Looking through them all really bought back all the memories of the day and we cannot thank him enough for all his hard work. We would highly recommend!!

A top tier wedding photographer 📸

Absolutely incredible! We had the pleasure of having Paul as our wedding photographer on October 25th, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the start, Paul was so dedicated, not just to capturing beautiful photos but to making sure everything went smoothly throughout the day. He was fantastic with our guests, bringing a sense of fun and light-heartedness to every moment while still being incredibly professional.

Paul helped coordinate the flow of the day, making sure we didn’t miss any important shots, but never in a way that felt intrusive. And the photos—wow! They are absolutely stunning. He perfectly captured the emotion, joy, and beauty of the day in ways we could have never imagined. We are beyond grateful for everything Paul did to make our wedding day extra special. If you’re looking for someone who is talented, fun, and truly dedicated to making your day unforgettable, Paul is your guy! We love him! Thank you, Paul!

Everything we could have wished for!

We had the pleasure of meeting Paul, just over a year ago at my now in-laws wedding and we instantly fell in love with his magical work, and it was a no brainer picking him to be our Photographer on our big day.

From the moment he arrived on the morning of the wedding, he was a shining light, for us he was not your standard wedding supplier, he truly felt like an extra guest. Personable, bubbly and incredibly friendly, his energy added something extra special to our day.

He even went to the extent of knowing the full order of the day, and collaborated with our Wedding Planner.

Paul (along with his second photographer Matt) came prepared with a plan for both wet and dry weather, which was very important given the countless amounts of rain showers we experienced. His ability to adapt on the day, showed how incredibly professional he is, and he was able to handle whatever weather was thrown his way.

Before we had even woken up the next day, Paul had uploaded 10 snapshots of our big day and from those images alone, we knew we had made the right choice.

Only three weeks later and we had received our full online gallery, and every single photo was perfect, we could not fault one image. Paul truly captured the magic of our day and truly exceeded our expectations.

We can wholeheartedly recommend Paul for any of your photography needs and you can trust him to deliver not only gorgeous photos but a marvellous experience.

Beautiful photos and amazing photographer!

Me and my husband got married on the 22nd September this year, and we feel we hit the jackpot with our photographer!

Recommended through our venue, I checked out Paul’s instagram and had noticed his page a few times before and we both really loved his work. We didn’t even reach out to anybody else and wanted to book with him straight away!

Straight after a phone consultation, I could already tell it was going to be a bundle of laughs and fun with him on our day, he makes you feel at ease and is really easy to talk to.

On our special day, he was everywhere (along with his awesome photographer Matt) got every single shot with the people we asked for. And we had asked for quite a lot of people to be pictured in group shots! Nothing was any trouble for him and he suggests ideas you hadn’t even thought of that make things even more sentimental. He got some awesome shots of our bridal prep, ceremony, reception, speeches and the evening. So much coverage of the day!

Our guests loved him and some were asking for his card for their future weddings during our day!

We received a handful of photos the day after and WOW, we were so happy with them! It was really nice to see some of our day so soon knowing there was going to be some waiting time for all the photos. So that was a really lovely touch! When we received our photos, which was only 3 weeks! We were taken straight back to every single moment he captured and it really was so special viewing them together for the first time. The photos are absolutely gorgeous and he has a really good and creative eye for taking amazing shots. We could not be happier, we want to print so many we can’t choose! I’m a hairdresser and so my clients have been asking to see our photos and they have all said how good my photographer was.

Thankyou so much Paul for being our photographer, you stand out from the rest with your banter, calm yet bright energy. We will always recommend you!

If you haven’t, BOOK WITH HIM ASAP!!

Would not have had anyone else!

From the year I got engaged back in 2019 I asked Paul to be our photographer! He did not disappoint.

From the moment he arrived til he left him and Viv were snapping photos of our wedding day. Not one moment was missed!

The experience with Paul was so much fun and enjoyable. He was easy to talk to and ensured we got all the photographs we wanted. Helped guide us when it came to planning group photos to ensure we got the ones we wanted most first.

Could not recommend him enough. Amazing photographer and person! Lots of laughs and smiles.

Thanks to Paul we have photos of each special moment of our day.

Best photographer in the business!!!

We had the most incredible experience with Paul, even in the face of unexpected challenges. Not only did they capture every beautiful moment, but they also went above and beyond when there was an incident with one of our guests. His calm and helpful nature kept us grounded, turning what could have been a stressful situation into something manageable. Paul’s energy was infectious, bringing joy and enthusiasm to every shot. They made us feel completely at ease, allowing our true personalities to shine through in the photos. To top it all off, he got our photos back to us incredibly quickly, without sacrificing quality. We are beyond grateful and would highly recommend Paul to anyone looking for a photographer who truly cares!!

Paul you are the best!

Paul is absolutely incredible! From the first moment we met him on our pre shoot he made us feel at such ease! Especially for my husband who can be quite shy in front of the camera! He helped us feel so confident and made the whole shoot just feel so natural. On our wedding day he was just amazing, again he made us feel so relaxed which you can tell in the photos. Everyone at my wedding said how much of a lovely and great guy Paul is and we couldn’t agree more!! I will never get tired of recommending Paul to anybody he produces amazing photos and has a laugh and a joke with you along the way! Thank you so much Paul for everything you did, our day wouldn’t have been the same without you!
