Kind Words
David is one of the nicest, most positive and friendly professionals we have ever met. He was approachable from the first communication about our wedding right up to when he left after some great dancing shots on the big day! Our photos are better than we could have ever expected & we love them so much.
What can I say, an absolutely fantastic photographer. Hannah and I were blown away by our wedding day photos. He is extremely professional and very friendly and puts you at ease. From start to finish the customer experience was amazing. Dave met with us before the wedding to talk things through and explained what to expect on the day. On the day itself he, and his second photographer, Lee, captured so many candid moments and they did a slide show in the evening which was a really nice touch. I’d recommend him to anyone, thanks Dave!
I was so impressed with David’s work after winning an engagement shoot with him that I booked him for my wedding the same day. He was with us throughout the whole planning process and captured every shot I asked for. His work is phenomenal, he’s a lovely guy, and I felt so relaxed with him. I even flew him out to Santorini to capture our honeymoon photos! I can’t thank him enough
From the initial meeting, we knew it was David who we wanted to take our photos. Not just because of the wonderful photos he showed us but because of how lovely and friendly he was. We got on straight away, David was really easy to talk to and put us at ease when it came to the photos. He listened to what kind of photos we were looking for and did an amazing job on the day.
David did an amazing job of capturing precious moments of our special day paying attention to detail. Many guests complemented me on friendly and discreet David was . we are super happy with our gallery with around 500 pictures from arrivals to the reception. Definitely recommend David.
Dave was our wedding photographer and I can’t recommend him enough. Dave is such a nice and genuine guy who we could have a real laugh with and made us (and our guests!) feel so relaxed – most of the time we didn’t even notice he was there! Our photos are so beautiful and natural which is exactly what we asked for and he got our initial photos to us within days of our wedding which was incredible!!
Massive thanks to Dave for helping to make Josh and Sophie’s wedding day special and capturing the days magical moments. Dave’s preparation before the wedding and coordination during the day ensured all the guests were included in the photos leaving Josh and Sophie with a special photo album full of memories from the day for them to cherish.
Absolutely amazing. I could write about David all day long. We fell in love with David from day one. He is friendly and easy to talk to, but also professional and took everything we wanted in his stride.
Sneak peek photos had all my guests in awe. I would really recommend David catches your special day.
David went above and beyond from the very beginning. Despite being on a family holiday, he took the time to speak with us and ease our concerns. He met us at our venue, discussed the shots we envisioned, and even showed us hidden gems for unique photos. On the wedding day, he delivered a rapid turnaround of countless stunning pictures.
Choosing David as our photographer was one of the easiest decisions we made as part of our planning process. His energy is infectious, we felt so at ease and couldn’t stop laughing which really helped with the nerves.
Our photos are amazing, our halloween wedding came to life in them. They are such an amazing way of looking back on our day and reliving it over again. Thank-you for capturing our day so beautifully 😍
