Peter did our wedding back in 2012 and I still tell everyone about him! He was very professional yet friendly from start to finish. He had great ideas and the final product is amazing! Peter captured our wedding day beautifully. We highly recommend this company. I recently contacted Peter regarding our video and he was very helpful even after all those years.

Report
We chose Peter from a shortlist of three photographers on the strength of his reviews and the galleries on his website. His previous photos looked like the best of all three. On top of that, as we were having a Covid-19 wedding (i.e. almost no guests allowed) we wanted a tailor made package rather than a full days hire of a photographer. Peter was able to do this for us and for a price we thought was very reasonable. On the day of our wedding, Peter was already at the registry office before us and had spoken to the staff to find out what was the position on the day. We started with photographs

Peter took our wedding photos in December 2019. We were hugely impressed by the quality of the photos and the way he followed our requests. At all times he was personable, unobtrusive & professional. We felt the cost was very reasonable. Many thanks indeed!
