Holly Sent on 28/02/2025The BEST photographer!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our January wedding After seeing how many weddings Eftal captures at Hidden River Barn, we knew we were making the right choice – and he exceeded all our expectations.
From the very first conversation, he was friendly, professional, and knew exactly what to do. On the day, he made the whole experience so enjoyable, keeping things fun and relaxed while ensuring we got the most incredible shots. He has a true gift for making people feel comfortable in front of the camera, which was so important to us.
The preview photos we received were absolutely breathtaking – the lighting, composition, and emotion in every shot were just perfect. It’s amazing how he can turn a simple image and turn it into a fairytale. We cannot wait to see the full album, but based on what we’ve already seen, we know they’re going to be incredible.
If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who is professional, talented, and a joy to work with, look no further than Ladybirds Photography. We would recommend Eftal to anyone in a heartbeat! Thank you for capturing our special day so beautifully! -

From day one of looking into wedding suppliers, I knew that Ladybirds Photography was the photographer that we wanted. The images shown throughout Eftal’s socials and website absolutely sold it for us. Luckily enough Eftal was available on our date and we were able to work with this incredible man.
This guy brings 10/10 energy and gets the job done. We absolutely loved spending time out of our special day to walk the venue grounds with Eftal and let him do his magic. We felt so at ease with him and felt as if we’d know him for ages, conversations just flowed and the laughs were never ending.
We then received the pictures and wow !!!! This guy really is the gift that keeps on giving. We are so in love with our images, I just need a bigger house now so I can have all of them on the walls at all times. If you’re on the fence don’t be, this guy really is the bees knees and we loved having him at our wedding !
Lots of love

Wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to photograph our wedding, especially as it was his photograph that sold the venue to us before we had even viewed it.. Eftal truly is the best.. not only does he make you feel so comfortable in front of the camera but he has the best banter and makes a good cup of tea!
I never thought I’d like a photo that I am in but eftal seems to be some sort of magician because there’s not one photo I don’t like!
I can’t wait to hang them on every inch of my home and treasure at them forever.
His photography style is for an autumnal wedding and a must if you are getting married at hidden river barn or anywhere else in the lakes! -

Natasha Sent on 18/01/2025Stunning Photographer!
When we were researching wedding photographers, we saw Eftal's social media and we knew straight away he was the one who we wanted to capture our special day. His photos are stunning and his creative touch was exactly what we were looking for. We were over the moon when we reached out and found out he was available on our wedding date!
From the planning beforehand, through to our special day, Eftal was amazing to work with. He worked so hard on the day and made sure he captured all of our special moments, from both of us getting ready in the morning, our ceremony, special photos of the two of us, to all our family and friends (and us) having an amazing time.
His professionalism, attention to detail, and creative vision are second to none. The photos he captured are beyond stunning, and we’re so grateful for the memories he’s given us.
If you're looking for a photographer who not only takes beautiful photos but also helps you feel at ease and truly enjoys being part of your celebration, Eftal is the perfect choice. We couldn’t be happier with our experience and the incredible photos we’ll cherish forever.
Thank you so much!

One of the first things people confirm for their weddings is the venue…not us. Ours was ensuring we could book Ladybirds the venue and date would need to fit around him! We knew from looking through his photos online he was had the perfect style for us!
Prior to our wedding we had spoken to Eftal and told him a few ideas we'd had for photos and he was so enthusiastic about everything, nothing was too much trouble. He was friendly and approachable with any questions we had and we knew it was all in safe hands.
Getting married in November was always a tough ask on the weather and as the heavens opened Eftal looked at me and said it's your choice?! When I said lets go for it it's only rain his face lit up, you can see the passion for what he does and he is eager to ensure you make the most of your day and get the best pictures. So the 3 of us went and embraced the rain. We spent a few hours out in the Lake District up and down mountains, out on the jetty, running through puddles and it was one of the best parts of our day. Eftal made us both feel at ease in front of the camera, he made us laugh from start to finish. He really does go the extra mile to ensure he gets the most stunning shots.
Receiving our photos back was like reliving the whole day again, they were more amazing than we could have dreamed of. Eftal captured everything I'd asked for without me even having to think about it.
Our wedding day was perfect and Eftal was a huge part of that! Thank you for capturing our day perfectly we will never get bored of looking at our stunning photos.

A master of his craft
Eftal was truly unbelievable. We had researched many different photographers unsure on how to choose. We asked for recommendations from our venue and they overwhelmingly said ladybird photography.
From the first conversation we had with Eftal we were confident that we were in good hands. He was responsive, informative and very professional. We didn't need to discuss much with him as he is so knowledgeable and experienced.
On our wedding day we had an amazing time that was captured through the truly remarkable photos by Eftal. He made us feel so relaxed and we were able to enjoy our day even more than we thought we could. Throughout the day he was constantly taking photos but we bearly saw him. He was never pushy or demanding. He knew where to be to get the most photos possible and his quality was never less than perfect.
This man is truly remarkable. He is kind, funny, and professional, but above all else, he is fantastic at what he does.
If you book with Eftal, you will not be disappointed -

Victoria Sent on 10/04/2024WOW!!!! Absolutely amazing!!!!!
Ladybirds Photography was the first thing we chose after booking our elopement wedding. We knew instantly this was the photographer for us. Aside from being insanely talented, Eftal is just the nicest most genuine guy. His passion and enthusiasm is infectious, we had the most incredible afternoon with him and felt like we were getting photographed by an old friend. We chatted, we laughed, the hours flew by. It was all so comfortable and natural and our preview shots are BREATHTAKING!!! Don’t be fooled his laid back demeanour, this guy is on fire when he’s in action! He’s constantly capturing and creating non-stop, even when he’s just chatting away. I don’t know if I’m the only bride who actually wanted it to rain, blue skies and sunshine isn’t my vibe. I wanted all the drama of dark and gloomy and moody skies and when I explained this to Eftal he could not have been more excited. The weather could not have been more perfect on the day. Future brides to be, don’t be scared of the weather, magic happens regardless! Cannot recommend Eftal enough, he has given us precious memories that will last forever. Thank you just doesn’t seem enough. Forever grateful. Thank You! Victoria & Kenny 🖤 -

Wonderful Winter Wedding!
We chose Eftal after seeing his work online. His style matched the kind of look we wanted and we were so pleased that he was available to capture our day. Eftal worked so well with our videographer who he had never met before, this made the day so much more relaxed for us and our guests. We got married in December so were expecting bad weather but Eftal didnt flinch at the wind and rain and he just got us out there, enjoying the moments. I have been counting the days to see the full album and it was so worth the wait. We are over the moon with the work that Eftal has done and our whole family are looking forward to getting prints done. Thank you Eftal - we LOVE your work :)

Katie Sent on 09/03/2024A fantastic experience
I knew that I wanted Eftal to photograph my wedding before the venue was even booked. It was a decision that we certainly do not regret. Eftal really went above and beyond at our wedding, making sure everything ran smoothly and even doing things like helping to button my dress. We felt uncomfortable about the photos but Eftal really put us at ease and they turned out to be INCREDIBLE. The previews that came after the wedding were amazing and we now have the full gallery. It was so hard to choose favourites for our album as there were so many lovely photos. The day was captured perfectly and gave us wonderful memories to look back on. I would absolutely recommend Eftal to anybody, he is incredibly talented and our guests were talking about how good he was after the wedding but even more so now after they have seen the photos. Thank you Eftal!
