Report
James was the photographer for our wedding at the beginning of July 2021 and we couldn't have asked for a better person to work with. James has the ability to put people at ease, which resulted in beautiful photos particularly during the times I was getting ready with my bridesmaids when nerves were a little high. Throughout the day we barely noticed James and have had comments from guests who having seen photos of themselves who also hadn't realised he was there - our aim was for natural photos so this is the highest compliment we could give! James was warm and friendly and during our more formal

Amazing photographer. Felt really comfortable around James, would barely have known he was at the wedding with how discreet he was. When we were taken off for pictures it was only for a short period of time, was fun and did not feel we were missing out on anything on our big day. Just put our album together and absolutely love it. Thank you so much! Highly recommend

James is pretty much everything you want out of a wedding photographer. He's friendly and accommodating, builds a great rapport, can blend into the background or chat to your guests and, most importantly, his photographs are stunning. We'd recommend him to anyone.

James photographed our wedding day on 12 May 2019. We were thrilled with the results! James captured so many naturally wonderful moments and looking through his pictures made us re live the day all over again. I would highly recommend James as a wedding photographer to everyone.
