Craig and Steve were absolutely brilliant

Craig and Steve were absolutely brilliant for our wedding day; me and my wife cannot thank them enough! Craig is happy to do as little or as many formal pictures as you’d like, but his fly-on-the-wall type of photography was just what we were looking for. Most of the time, we were unaware of them both working in the background, but it shows how well it works with how natural all our photos look.

Highly recommended

We used Craig and his assistant Steve for our wedding in August and both were excellent. Craig’s work, attention to detail and personality make us highly recommend him. From the very first time we made contact with Craig we were impressed with him and he took time to walk through options and we are delighted with our photos from the day. Craig has always been available and helpful both pre and post wedding and the way he has put our wedding album together is excellent. Highly recommended by us

Craig did an amazing job

Craig did an amazing job on our special day. Always pulling the strings behind the scenes and not in your face, capturing very natural shots of people having fun and some clever artistic shots to boot. We were especially pleased with the bride and groom shots, he knows how to get the best out of the scenery and has an eye for detail. We’d recommend Craig in a heartbeat!

brilliant!

Craig was brilliant! He put us at ease in the meeting before, and actually his knowledge of what he’s seen work well/less so at weddings was incredibly helpful! He was happy to go with the flow on the day and was pretty discreet throughout. He was flexible and dealt with rain and ‘surprises’ with ease! We’re so pleased with the photos – they’ve captured so many of our favourite moments from the day, and all the happiness! Highly recommend!​

absolutely amazing from start to finish

Craig was absolutely amazing from start to finish on our wedding day. I would recommend him 100%. He set my mind at ease as bride and took some great photos of the groom and his best man and groomsmen as well! His fist pump before I walked down the aisle was especially appropriate and something I will always remember. He is truly fantastic and had some great ideas for the best shots of our day. We whole heartedly say thank you and it was the best choice of photographer 🙂 xx

We are so pleased

We are really happy we chose Craig as our wedding photographer! We are so pleased with the lovely photos he has produced but also found his presence on the day to be perfect. He took everything we wanted (and plenty we had not noticed him taking that we love) without ever interrupting the flow of the day. Easy to communicate with leading up to the day and his prices are definitely competitive.

amazing job

Craig helped capture all the special moments on our day. He did an amazing job and helped the day go really smoothly and made us feel so relaxed. The photos were absolutely STUNNING. We can also highly recommend having the 2nd photographer as it means all the set up can be done between the two of them and there is always 2 different perspectives throughout the day. Awesome can’t recommend him highly
