Jess Sent on 03/10/2025We couldn’t be happier with our experience!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the very start, Michael was kind, professional, and such a calming presence on our big day. He blended in so seamlessly with our guests that it felt like he was part of the celebration, which meant he was able to capture the most beautiful candid moments that we’ll cherish forever.
On top of that, the portrait shots Michael took of us are absolutely stunning — natural, timeless, and truly reflective of who we are as a couple. He managed to capture every emotion and little detail so perfectly.
We are beyond grateful for Michael’s talent and effort. If you’re looking for someone who is not only an incredible photographer but also a joy to have around, we can’t recommend Michael enough!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Thanks Jess, This is absolutely fantastic to read! I truly felt like part of the celebration and am so happy that my "calming ninja" style captured those beautiful, candid moments for you. Thank you so much for your incredible kindness and high recommendation. Wishing you both all the happiness in the world! -

Michael Willatt is a very detailed oriented and patient photographer. knowing this day the customer demands could be so personal and varied. Michael could always adjust to suit the best of customer's need. Michael' ve been on the spot of my wedding for solid 4 hours and captured lots of precious moments.

Great photographer and a great experience!
Michael was a great photographer. From start to finish he was calm, flexible and really responsive. The pre-wedding/engagement with Michael helped us learn about him and for him to get to know us. This session helped us relax and made the day a lot easier. Our wedding photos are fabulous and we love them. Thank you Michael!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Thank you for trusting me with your wedding! I had a great time working with you both. That pre-wedding session was such a highlight for me, too—it makes such a difference when we can head into the wedding day with a solid connection. Enjoy those photos! -

Michael is an amazing photographer and person!
We found Michael online and reached out via email. He got back to us so quickly and we booked in a call to discuss what we were after. He was super friendly, clearly very experienced and knowledgeable, we felt we were in safe hands! We decided to book with Michael and his communication throughout was great, everything felt really organised.
When it came to the wedding day, he was so great - calming, fun, very professional. I didn’t even notice him he just knows what to do!
We were so pleased with our photos, we got them much quicker than we expected too! His photography is fantastic but having him part of are day was just so lovely. Can’t stress enough how reassuring and skilled he is!
Would absolutely recommend to everyone! Thank you so much Michael!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Wow, thank you so much for this incredibly kind review! It honestly made my whole week.
I'm thrilled you felt comfortable and in safe hands from our first chat. My goal is always to make the process easy and organised, so you can just enjoy the day.
Hearing that I was a 'calming' and 'fun' presence is genuinely one of the best compliments I could get! I always try to blend in and capture the real moments, so I'm chuffed I succeeded. I'm also so happy you love the photos and appreciate the quick turnaround!
Thank you again for trusting me with your day. It was a true pleasure to be part of it. Wishing you all the happiness in the world!
All the best,
Michael -

Book Michael - seriously good choice
We were so happy with Michael as our photographer. He's a real pro, took some showstopping pictures and is an easygoing lovely guy (important as you'll spend a lot of time with your photographer). We appreciated the engagement shoot as a warmup (we are pretty awkward people in front of a camera) so the actual day was relaxed and easy. Michael was super responsive, very organised and touched up pictures for us where requested ;) Wouldn't hesitate to recommendMichael Willatt Photography's reply:
Wow, thank you so much for the 'shows topping' recommendation Livi! I absolutely loved working with you both. Being 'easygoing' is my goal because I know how much time we spend together on the day—I'm so glad it felt that way to you. You definitely didn't look awkward; you looked incredible! -

Keith Sent on 01/08/2025GREAT Photographer
We loved having Michael at our wedding. He was really professional. He made us feel at ease and was great with all of our guests. But most importantly his pictures were stunning. We only wish we could afford to pint them all!Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Hi Keith, Thank you so much! It was such a pleasure meeting your families and friends—your guests were a joy to work with, which made my job so much easier. I’m thrilled that you’re struggling to pick favourites to print; that is exactly the 'problem' I want my couples to have! 😉 -

We could not of been happier with the experience.
Michael was an absolute joy to work with and did a fantastic job photographing our wedding. From the very first phone call, Michael was responsive, thoughtful and friendly. He had some great suggestions about where to take photographs and made us both feel at ease. He made the whole day run smoothly whilst being fun to be around. If you are considering hiring Michael, I would whole-heartedly recommend that you do.Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Hi Lyn, This means the world to me, thank you! Working with couples who are open to ideas and suggestions makes my job a dream.
I’m so glad you had a fantastic experience from start to finish. It was an honour to be your wedding photographer! -

Max Sent on 30/06/2025Captured our day perfectly
Michael went Above & Beyond to meet our needs for our wedding day. He was extremely professional and made sure he understood exactly what we wanted from our photos before the day so that we could actually enjoy the day and not have to worry. We asked him for certain shots of which he did them all.
The fact he does a pre-meet up before the wedding day to have a practice shoot really helped us relax as neither of us enjoy being in front of the camera. It also allowed us to pick what we wanted to do on the day to save time so that we could actually go and enjoy time with our friends instead.
We wanted very natural shots, mostly, which is why we picked Michael as we liked his photography style and he did not disappoint us.
Thank you for our wonderful photos!

Augusta Sent on 25/06/2025Great wedding photographer
We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Michael for our wedding. He offered an engagement shoot where he came to visit us before which was a great touch as we got to know him and he made us feel comfortable with his style and tested a few poses out. He really spent the time with us which we appreciated. The wedding day went smoothly and the photos are brilliant. He captured everything we were expecting, and lots of casual/subtle moments that we will cherish.
On top of that, the turnaround time was incredibly fast. We were so excited to see the final photos, and we were not disappointed! Michael is really friendly and we would definitely work with him again.Michael Willatt Photography's reply:
Thanks so much, Augusta ! It was honestly such a joy to photograph your wedding — from the relaxed engagement shoot to the big day itself, I really enjoyed every minute. I’m so pleased to hear you loved the photos (especially those little in-between moments — they’re often my favourites too!). And the feeling is most definitely mutual — I’d love to work with you both again down the line. -
