A fantastic service from start to finish!

We employed Hawaian Shirt Photograpy to document our Wedding. We can't recommend Tom and the team enough.

The initial meeting was really good fun and he totally understood what we were aiming for from the photos and videos. He had some excellent ideas and suggestions that we loved and would never have though of without his expert guidance.

On the day, Tom and his colleague were professional, funny and put us completely at ease. They had fantastic ideas staged shots, and the 'fly on the wall' pictures were spot on.

Afterwards, Tom provided the images and videos promptly and they were all epic! Our guests have raved about the quality and many have asked for his contact details for their weddings.

In our opinion, you wont find a nicer, efficient, professional, accommodating and reasonably priced company than Hawaiian Shirt Photography.

Thank you to Tom and the team for perfectly capturing our special day.

The absolute best!

We cannot recommend Tom enough! Everyone says your wedding day goes by in the blink of an eye & it absolutely does, so having a videographer is the best investment we made. But having Tom was particularly special - he took time before the big day to get to know us & produced a video that was so special & so very us.
He was so discreet on the day & we didn’t even notice he was there, but he caught absolutely everything that went on, even the bits we missed.
From the small touches like fixing the buttons on my dress & the button holes on the grooms men, to first dance & speeches. Plus all the hilarious antics going on at each table at the wedding breakfast.
100% professional & 100% recommended.
Thanks Tom for creating a video we can watch again & again & relive the best day of our lives!

Just wow!

Tom did a fabulous job filming our wedding. He was quick with responses and always very professional. He also blended in on the day and got some of the best shots of all our guests. We weren’t sure if we wanted a videographer when planning our wedding but decided to take the leap and I’m so grateful we did. Being able to relive your wedding day is the most special experience and Tom made it that much more amazing by capturing the most special of moments. I cannot recommend him enough and if you were in the same position as us, unsure if a videographer is right, please take this as your sign that it is!

Amazing Photographer

After a massive search, we finally found Tom and made such a great choice in choosing him to capture our special day.

Not only did the Hawaiian shirt help to keep guests engaged, Tom managed to get a bounty of spectacular photos of our day, which really matched the vibe we were after.

Communication and flexibility was great and we had a super quick turnaround on the final photos which came out really well .

Definitely recommend, thanks again Tom!

Incredible Video Results

The videos Tom produced were absolutely sensational, we cried multiple times whilst watching back our highlight video and our full video. The quality is stunning and the shots Tom managed to get were incredible. Tom put us both at ease, very chilled and easy going guy, we are so grateful Tom did our videography and have these stunning memories to look back on forever. The turn around was also impressively fast!

Thank you Tom for capturing all the details and the special moments.

Authentic, heartfelt, and exactly what we wanted!

We had an amazing experience with Tom Hewett from Hawaiian Shirt Photography and Videography for our wedding! Tom delivered exactly what we wanted for our wedding, capturing every perfect moment with a natural and authentic touch.

Tom's style suited us perfectly. He has a knack for catching special, spontaneous moments, allowing us to relive our day just as it happened. Watching our video feels like we're right back in the middle of the celebration.
We wanted a true-to-life representation of our day, and Tom delivered that beautifully. His approach is relaxed and unobtrusive, which was exactly what we needed to feel comfortable and be ourselves. We couldn't be happier with how our video turned out. IThanks, Tom!

Highly Recommend!

Highly recommend!!! We decided to have a videographer a few weeks before our wedding and Tom was very accommodating. Tom was really friendly and blended in great on the day. The videos he produced are stunning and it was a really quick turn around. If you are looking for a videographer look no further!

A wedding captured perfectly

Tom & Jeremy from Hawaiian Shirt Photography did a fabulous job capturing our wedding in photo and on video. Both being a bit camera shy we were keen to get lots of natural and candid poses with our friends and family which they did effortlessly. We hardly noticed they were there and nothing seemed too much trouble. The outcome is more beautiful than we could have imagined and can't wait to look at our photos and watch the video for many years to come. Thank you so much!

We chose Tom to do our videography for our wedding in April and he was superb. In the nicest possible way you wouldn’t have known he was there, which meant we have gotten the most gorgeous candid moments of our special day. The footage is very professionally recorded and the audio had especial care taken too. Over the moon with everything, so thank you Tom!

Amazing Videographer!

Absolutely amazing! Felt so comfortable and he captured so many wonderful moments, having so many different angles as well, honestly coulddn't wish for a better person; we're both so in love with the highlights video we've watched it 30+ times in just 2 days 😂 Was always listening to our request even if last minute and was so friendly. Never intrusive, blended in perfectly and felt so natural.

Professional and relaxed

We hired Tom as the videographer for our wedding and he was great to work with, from the build up to the wedding to on the day, he was responsive and reliable. He was really kind and discreet during the day itself and worked well with our photographer. The footage he captured was great and really relaxed. It's lovely to have the short video to share with friends and then the longer video to have as a keepsake. Would definitely recommend to anyone!
