James, thank you so much for capturing our day, we are so grateful and thankful
When we stated to look for wedding photographers, we were scrolling through Facebook and came across The Wedding Diaries, and we fell in love with previous wedding pictures instantly. We booked James straight away and that was the best decision we made.
James is amazing, from the very beginning he has been wonderful. James listened to our wishes and our sneak peek photos we’ve recieved are absolutely gorgeous and capture our day perfectly.
James is such a kind soul and we really appreciated our phone call a week before to run through the shots we wished for, every photo is beautiful and we can’t wait to get them printed and put them up.
Anyone from the wedding who spoke to James said what a gentleman he was and we can’t recommend him enough.

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer than James for our wedding day
He absolutely smashed it. From start to finish, he created such a calm and comfortable atmosphere, helping both me and my partner feel completely at ease and able to enjoy every moment.
The photos he captured have exceeded all of our expectations. The quality is incredible, and he has such a natural way of documenting the day that really brings every moment back to life. We’re genuinely so impressed with his work.
Everything flowed effortlessly, and James was professional, organised, and a pleasure to have around. We felt completely taken care of throughout the day.
We’re beyond happy with the experience and would wholeheartedly recommend James to anyone looking for a photographer who delivers amazing results.-

Highly recommend booking this dream duo.
James and Hannah are an amazing duo. We absolutely loved our video shorts and photographs. Hannah sent the content and a highlight reel within less than 24hrs - was so nice seeing our big day captured so fast. We had amazing feedback; the reel went viral amongst our family! James sent over a good amount of ‘sneak peak’ photos within 48 hours, he captured the day perfectly.
They both made us feel very relaxed and had a warm welcoming energy about them. They were both very professional; communication to the lead up of the wedding was brilliant. A very thorough questionnaire to ensure they captured the day the way we wanted it.
We even received a Christmas card with a couple of printed photos. Their care and attention is very much appreciated.
Highly recommend booking this dream duo. -

We cannot recommend James highly enough. From start to finish, the entire experience was absolutely incredible.
From our very first meeting and initial chat, James was warm, easygoing, and genuinely invested in us and our wedding, it immediately felt like we were talking to a friend, not just booking a photographer.
We booked the duo package with James as our photographer and his wife Hannah as our content creator, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Both of them were so personable while still being total professionals. Everyone felt completely at ease around them — our families, our wedding party, and even the kids (who adored them and our daughter constantly asks to speak to them!). Nothing ever felt forced or awkward; it was just real moments, real laughter, and so much joy.
What really set James apart was how much he became part of the whole experience. He and Hannah were in on the family jokes (including the infamous “nature swim” 😂), chatting with everyone the night before, and laughing with our guests again at breakfast the next morning. It genuinely felt like they were just part of the group, which made everything feel even more relaxed and special.
The sneak peeks came through so quickly that we got to completely melt over them while on our mini-moon, which was the perfect way to relive the day. And the photos themselves are honestly everything we could have wished for. James captured the colours, the feelings, and the atmosphere of the day so perfectly, and his editing style brings it all together in a way that feels timeless, natural, and so us. Every time we look at them, we’re right back in those moments.
Honestly, we’ll genuinely miss getting to spend time with both James and Hannah, but we’re so grateful for the impact they had on our wedding and the experience they helped create. We’re excited to keep watching their careers flourish, and we know that every future couple who books them is going to have the absolute best time. James is someone we would recommend again and again without hesitation.-

James is a phenomenal photographer and an all-round lovely person
He photographed our wedding in July and we couldn't be happier with the images! He captured the day perfectly, and he told a lovely story through the little moments.
Thank you James! -

We will forever be grateful to James for everything and would recommend him to anyone 100x over!!
We had James for our special day and after only booking our wedding 6 months in advanced it made everything a bit hectic to sort - James and his wife Hannah (bridediariesuk for our content creation) made everything seamless, from the initial conversation right up until the day, we didn’t feel stressed in the slightest! On the day, James was so chilled and made everything so relaxed which is all we could’ve asked for, everything felt super natural and we received so many positive things about how lovely he was from our guests and we thought the exact same - it very much felt like he was one us! We received the sneak peaks back so quickly and these were so lovely to see especially being in the newlywed bubble and then we received our final photos - these are more than we could’ve imagined, they captured the day so beautifully and we look back in awe of the memories from that day and these will always be cherished! We loved the addition of the drone too! -

From start to finish, James was an absolute dream to work with.
In the lead-up to our wedding, he was incredibly considerate, easy to communicate with, and always professional. He struck the perfect balance – asking a few thoughtful questions to understand what we were looking for, while also offering great suggestions based on his experience. He was readily available whenever we needed to reach out, but never overbearing or asking too many questions – just the right level of support and guidance.
On the day itself, James went above and beyond to ensure every moment we wanted captured was beautifully documented. I genuinely couldn’t have asked for better photos - they exceeded all expectations. Not only is James an incredibly talented photographer, but he’s also a truly lovely human being. Kind, respectful, joyful, and professional - he brought such a positive energy to the day and made us feel completely at ease, especially during the more intimate shots of just the two of us.
After the wedding, James was impressively quick in sharing sneak peeks (much faster than I expected!), and the full album followed just a few weeks later - beautifully edited and thoughtfully curated.
I honestly couldn’t recommend James more highly. He captured the spirit of our day perfectly and was an absolute pleasure to have around. Thank you so, so much James - we’re beyond grateful! -

We honestly couldn’t recommend James highly enough for your wedding!
We had James capture our wedding in August 2025, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Before the big day, we had several calls to discuss what we liked and wanted, and James took everything on board perfectly. We wanted a light-hearted, relaxed approach to our photos that really captured the intimate, family feel of our wedding and that’s exactly what he delivered.
On the day itself, James made us feel calm and relaxed, and everything went perfectly. Although we had only booked him for two hours, he went above and beyond to capture as much as he could and to make sure we’ll always remember the smaller details. He also worked seamlessly alongside our content creator to ensure every moment was covered.

They made us feel so at ease and kept us laughing
We chose James and Hannah for photography and content creation for our wedding in July and it’s the best choice we could’ve made. Communication was great in the nearly 2 year build up and we had a zoom call about a month before. They are both so friendly and I felt like I knew them the minute I arrived at our venue. Hannah captured all the moments brilliantly and we woke up the morning after to an already edited video and received the rest of the content shortly after! I would highly recommend using James and Hannah for your photography and content creation! Steph xx -

Brilliant photos and memories of our special day!
We first met James on a video call having already browsed through his photo galleries and liked his work. He was laid back & easy to get on with.
Meeting James on the day was exciting, knowing our whole day would be captured. The photos were great, and even captured a lot of natural candid ones which we wanted.
Will be making an album & canvas of these perfectly captured pics.
Would recommend James for any special day. -
