What a talent, what a guy!

During my wedding David was just encouraging, creative and just splendid. We can't be more grateful for David for capturing the memories and special moments for us. I love the pictures, the smiles and the black and white editing. It's simply beautiful. He was a pivotal part of our special day and we won't forget that! If you're looking for a photographer who is thoughtful, kind and extremely talented (we can't compromise on that, can we) - David is the guy for you!

David is THE photographer you want at your wedding

David is the photographer you want at your wedding. He made everything possible, he listened, found the best places and light to take beautiful photographs and nothing was too much trouble. He is creative and inspired. We would both highly recommend David to anyone thinking of asking him to photograph their special day.

Highly recommend him to anyone planning a wedding

David is such an amazing photographer, who really took the time to discuss our vision for our wedding and was so supportive throughout the entire planning process. He is so experienced in knowing which shots work best and the photos turned out absolutely beautiful. After our wedding, he was so helpful in putting together a lovely album. We highly recommend him to anyone planning a wedding!!

A huge thank you to David for the fantastic job he did as our wedding photographer. We absolutely love his work and after our first zoom call with him we instantly knew he would be perfect in capturing our big day. David was an absolute pleasure to communicate with from day one and really appreciate all your time/questions in understanding what we wanted on our big day. His professionalism and photography style was exactly what we wanted. Our beautiful wedding photos and photo album are stunning

Our photos are beautiful

We booked David 2.5 years before our wedding as I loved his work and had to have him as our photographer. He did not let us down. He was amazing on the day, for a camera shy couple David managed to capture moments without us knowing & also made us feel as comfortable as possible. Our photos are beautiful and his knowledge of the venue really helped to capture the perfect pictures. David has many awards & for someone with his expertise & achievements he is still personable & really shows he cares

He truly offers a Rolls-Royce service.

We fully recommend David as your wedding photographer - he truly offers a Rolls-Royce service. He photographed our wedding at Hedsor House, alongside a second photographer he arranged, Mark Seymour, who is an award winning photographer in his own right. David’s expert knowledge of the venue meant they were able to capture every moment and shot we had hoped for. Prior to the wedding - we visited David at his studio and had some nice pictures in the surrounding local countryside. Andrew and Ellie

David was first class all day Fabulous, as always.

Following our Wedding in November 2022, we held a Celebration of Marriage in June this year. David photographed our wedding and he was the only photographer we considered for this special family event. David was first class all day and all the photos formed part of the afternoon and bringing the family together. Thank you David. Fabulous, as always. Dawn & Bill

Extremely pleased with how the images turned out!

We recently hired David for our pre-wedding shoot in Oxford. From the start, David’s communication (via email and WhatsApp) was clear, thorough and prompt. Coming from another country, I needed someone who could demonstrate reliability and professionalism. His communication did just that. He also provided helpful tips and information to make sure we were prepared, and set up for success for the shoot. The photos turned out spectacular. I’d highly recommend David and would work with him again

What is your most memorable wedding?

It is hard to choose just one of the 500 weddings that I have photographed over the past 17 years but if I had to pick just one then it would be The Savoy, London May 2021. This wedding really had it all and it was exciting to be a part of. A Greek Wedding ceremony at at gorgeous Greek Orthodox Church in North London followed by a lavish reception for 250 guests at The Savoy Hotel in the heart of London. A great wedding planner kept things on track and I used a trusted second shooter as the bride and groom prep shots were in different locations. The couples first dance in the River Room of the Savoy with the dancefloor circled by the diners tables had the brides father walking around them showering them with money notes. It was also memorable for a slightly sadder reason. The next morning after I stayed in town, pretty much every single piece of photography equipment I owned was stolen out of a locked car, behind privacy glass in a security patrolled underground car park. Obviously no photographs were lost as I never leave memory cards in the cameras, they are always on my person but I will always remember that Bank Holiday date in May 2021! The photographs I am really proud of and so many were captured under extreme time pressure.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Dramatic, Natural, Beautiful, Storytelling, Stylish

What about your business are you most proud of?

That I have managed to achieve Three Fellowships in Wedding Photography from the professional photography institutions which is the absolute pinnacle of qualifications possible in the photography industry. It has taken me 17 years and over 500 weddings to achieve this which is why it's so hard to achieve and so few wedding photographers hav achieved this level.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

Allow 2 hours for the champagne reception (from the time you get back to the venue from a church or from the end of your ceremony for a civil ceremony at the venue) if you want family group photos, couple portraits and time with your guests. Too often this is cut to an hour or hour and a half and everything then starts to feel rushed. Planning enough time for the various sections is the best advice I can give to any couple and my couples always thank me for this tip.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Each guest at the wedding breakfast had on their table a small bottle of 'Tuica' handmade by the brides grandma that everyone was encouraged to 'down in one' during the brides fathers speech. Tuica is one of the most popular alcoholic drinks in Romania, that is mostly sold in farmers markets or made at home. Tuica is considered to be the national drink of Romania. It is a very strong alcoholic drink, sometimes even reaching an alcohol level of 80%. It is made from prunes

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

The bride entering the ceremony with her father/brother/friend/son/mother whoever is giving her away. There is a split second when the doors open and one looks at the other before looking down the aisle to see the groom (or bride) waiting for them. As a wedding photographer you need to be ready for it but if you capture it the n it wil transport the bride back to that exact moment, a glance and what was said/whispered to each other.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

A bride and groom feeding apples to a couple of Highland cattle during their couple portraits!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Unless it is biblical horizontal rain and crazy wind, grab a white umbrella and venture out for some couple shots. Some of my biggest awards have been for wedding images captured in the rain. In 20 years time it's the memories you capture that you can enjoy in the warm dry of your home through the joy of your wedding album!

Describe how you got into photography.

I've had a camera in my hand before I was 10 year old, a box brownie with 12 exposures on a roll of 127 film
