About

Hi there! I'm Thomas, a wedding photographer and videographer offering relaxed, documentary-style coverage with a timeless finish, and a good sense of humour thrown in (allegedly...) I serve Yorkshire and neighbouring areas, but happy to travel anywhere!

Firstly, congratulations on your engagement! I hope your wedding day is everything you’ve dreamed of.

I genuinely love what I do and feel lucky to capture such meaningful days. My style is very natural and low-key – I focus on real moments, candid laughs, and those in-between bits that matter just as much as the big ones. I aim for a timeless look, so when you pull your photos out decades from now, they’ll still look brilliant.

I try to be a fly on the wall, although that’s tricky when you’re 6 foot 3 and bald – but I give it my best shot. I keep the focus on you, not me. This is your day, and my job is to make sure it's captured in a way that feels true to you.

Every package includes a pre-wedding shoot (location depending), which I highly recommend. It’s a great way for us to meet properly, have a laugh, and ease any nerves before the big day. Whether you're camera-shy or confident, I'll do my best to help you feel comfortable – I know how weird it can feel at first. Arms? What do we even do with them?

I offer a range of photography and videography packages to suit different budgets and plans, and I’m always happy to chat through what you need. Whether you’re planning a big celebration or something more intimate, I’d love to hear about it.

Feel free to drop me a message if you'd like to chat.

We highly recommend Thomas!

Thomas videoed our wedding and the service he provided was very professional. He kept in contact numerous times before and after our special day - which really put us at ease! The quality of video was incredible and I can't thank him enough. I will forever treasure the memories he captured for us!

Would highly recommend Thomas for his wedding photography service.

He is a professional and a genuinely nice guy and made us feel at ease prior to and in the day!

5 star service

Neither of us like having our photo taken but Thomas made our wedding photos seem easy. Most of the time I hardy knew he was there as he was so clever in hiding to get the perfect pictures!
I’d highly recommend Thomas not just for wedding photography but for any event!

he managed to capture the emotion of the event on film

Tom has been able to encapsulate the event, and the emotions, somehow knowing the exact right moment to press the shutter. He has recorded the joy and delight of our wedding. Not only this, but he was able to blend into the environment, so much so, that seeing the photos made us wonder when he had been able to capture the shot
Five Stars and VERY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
