We had Thomas as our wedding photographer and we couldnt be happier with how the pictures turned out. Amazing quality, capturing the best moments of the day. Thomas listens to what you want and makes sure you get the pictures you ask for. Great at capturing pictures of people having fun and enjoying the day, which you might miss as the day flies by so quickly, and theyre lovely to look back on. Quick turnaround on receiving the pictures and there were plenty to choose from. Would 100% recommend, thank you!

Thomas did a brilliant job photographing our wedding. He takes really natural-looking shots, and we had a great selection to pick from after our special day. He did a great job of capturing the atmosphere and reflecting the personality of our families and guests. He was also extremely friendly and professional, and lovely to work with. We can't recommend him enough.

Thomas has recently carried out a photo session for our second newborn child after a brilliant experience with our first also. He carried out the session professionally and safely taking into account covid restrictions. I felt comfortable with him looking after our newborn during the session.
Thomas went above and beyond to get our digital images and portrait ready for us quickly, even though we ended up in lockdown when putting through our order. He carried out the follow-up session virtually during lockdown. He hand delivered our framed portrait. The digital images are all beautiful and the

TL:DR Thomas is a great photographer who we would recommend to anyone who asks!!
Thomas was the photographer at our wedding last year, and he was amazing and we love our photos. He is always easy to talk to and relaxed something many of our guests mentioned. While also working incredibly hard to be in the right place at the right time, often without you noticing. Our package included some time during the evening reception, Thomas jumped straight in, got jostled around a bit, but ended up with some of the best photos from the dance floor. Recently we have ordered our wedding albums from Thomas
