Peter and his side kick, Emily, are brilliant. Two photographers who you don't notice taking the most endiring and ultimately most enduring images of our wedding album. We were lucky enough to have Peter photograph our wedding day, from beginnings to end. Totally beautiful.

Report
Peter was a fantastic photographer. We had a couple of lovely meetings with him in advance to talk about the style of shots we wanted, and he was outstandingly professional on the day itself: he arrived right on time, was genuinely friendly to all our guests, and we barely noticed him taking any pictures - and yet we ended up with over 700 wonderful photos of our nearest and dearest having the time of their lives. We honestly couldn't be happier with either the images or the photographer. Highly recommended!
