Jake recently did our videography for our wedding in August and we are so happy we chose him as our supplier. Everything was straight forward and professional from my initial enquiry to receiving our video today which we are over the moon with! Jake is a great guy and made everything very laid back and easy on our special day. I would definitely recommend his services. Thanks again Jake!

Incredible

We can not recommend Swiftly Creative more. Jake truly listened to what we wanted, our likes and dislikes and gave us some beautiful memories captured in photos. He is such a warm and friendly person who I would highly recommend to anyone wanting a candid wedding. Thank you from Rob and Faye Jenkinson

Woohoo William was great

William was really professional, couple of our guests had just been to other weddings and were impressed. He was very organised, took some brilliant shots, and we're very pleased with the results. Lots of woo in the photos made the whole thing fun

Wedding photographer

Cannot fault these guys, after losing out when my wedding package company went bust they stepped up helping all those affected, and im so glad that they did. Because these two were so friendly putting everyone and ease, and the photos they got were outstanding and captured our day brilliantly. I cannot recommend these guys enough to everyone as you will not be disappointed.

Calming friendly photographer

Jake and team was amazing it our wedding. They slot in to our day and would match any vibe of that moment. He found an amazing park near our venue to take fantastic photographs that was edited and sent to us very quickly. The team looked after us both and instructed our wedding team well. I am so happy with our photographs and experience from this team. Highly recommend, Thankyou!

The absolute best

Myself and my husband are both quite anxious people especially when it comes to having pics taken, but Jake made us feel so comfortable and natural taking our photos we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Exceptional

I just want to say thank you so so much for the pictures and video. They are even better than we could have imagined and I cannot wait to share them with family! You absolutely captured our day perfectly and we will be forever greatful! You had us both crying with the video and it's something I will cherish forever. Your professionalism was outstanding and I can safely say you were not only our photographers but cherished guests! Would recommend you to everyone!

Just what we were looking for

Ours was a very small intimate wedding of camera shy people. We hired Jake for 3 hours and he seemed to pick up our uneasiness and made things casual and easy going for us. As a result we have some wonderful photo's of our special day. I would have no hesitation in hiring Jake again and highly recommend him.
