Hawaiian Shirt Photography Full Description
For me, great photography and videography is a mixture of an eye for a great shot, passion, enthusiasm, and a love of technology. There are so many great cameras, lenses, sound equipment, and even drones out there and I love learning about the latest gadgets and using them to enhance my work. With weddings, as well as producing beautiful images, I believe it’s equally important to create a great experience. The photographer and videographer really help with the vibe of the day. I aim for the right mixture of relaxed but organised, unobtrusive, but happy to try fun shots with those who want to. You can book me for photography, videography or both. If you go for the combined package I’ll bring a second person along from a team of fantastic people I work regularly with. I’d describe my style as pretty candid but not completely! Although most of the day works best staying in the background and capturing people while they are not looking, there is certainly a place for some nice group shots and definitely a couple shoot (which can be a really lovely part of the day, as it’s where you can escape the madness for a little bit). I’m used to shy and awkward couples, actually thinking about it perhaps that’s specialty…It’s a nice challenge to bring out natural smiles from those who are not super comfortable in front of the lens.

Brilliant wedding video

We used Hawaiian Shirt Photography to capture our wedding ceremony and party. They were perfect. Even though there was only one videographer, they managed to capture many different angles. They also used very discreet cameras, so that they were never in the way or even noticed. The edit managed to capture all the important moments and the atmosphere of the day. Thank you for doing a great job!

Wedding Videography

We hired Hawaiian Shirt to film our wedding and I cannot recommend him enough! Baring in mind he was wearing a bright blue hawaiian shirt, he blended in and managed to film the day unnoticed which gave our wedding video a lovely natural feel. We got our full video back very promptly and also a little teaser trailer that we were able to share on social media. I'm so glad we found him and would definitely recommend him to anyone!

Amazing experience for our fusion wedding

Tom was amazing. My husband and I both feel like staged posing, being cheesy and romantic on camera is a bit cringe so we wanted something natural and fun, and this is what we got! We had an English/Indian fusion wedding with 2 ceremonies on the same day and we chose Tom because of his experience with all different types of weddings. He is so friendly and approachable and we felt really comfortable with him on the day. We were also really happy with the communication after the wedding when receiving our photos and video.

Fantastic service!

We employed Hawaian Shirt Photograpy to document our Wedding. We can't recommend Tom and the team enough. The initial meeting was really good fun and he totally understood what we were aiming for from the photos and videos. He had some excellent ideas and suggestions that we loved and would never have though of without his expert guidance. On the day, Tom and his colleague were professional, funny and put us completely at ease. They had fantastic ideas staged shots, and the 'fly on the wall' pictures were spot on. Afterwards, Tom provided the images and videos promptly and they were all epic! Our guests have raved about the quality and many have asked for his contact details for their weddings. In our opinion, you wont find a nicer, efficient, professional, accommodating and reasonably priced company than Hawaiian Shirt Photography. Thank you to Tom and the team for perfectly capturing our special day.

The best Day Of Our Lives

From the minute I spoke with Tom, I knew he was our man. Tom is a really really lovely guy & picked up on our laid back, chilled & candid vibe from the off. Initially, we weren’t intending to have a videographer as I am rather camera shame & to be honest we don’t have the easiest family in the world ! But boy I am so pleased we did as I needn’t have worried. We didn’t even know that Tom was there half of the time. He just blended in perfectly, & captured so so much of the majic on the day. I can’t thank or recommend Tom enough, as we will be able To relive the majic of the day for the rest of our lives l

Lockdown Wedding

We got married during Covid so we worried that our photos would look strange with only 14 guests. The photographer was so lovely and got to know us, so he felt like part of the party. The photos were incredible and he made it so much fun! The communication before and after the wedding was great and we felt like they really listened to what we wanted. I would highly recommend.

A perfect memento from a wonderful day

Hawaiian Shirt photography did an amazing job on our wedding day capturing all the moments we’d want to remember forever. I hardly noticed them being there as it was so seamless. I’d highly recommend them to anyone who really wants the fun captured at their wedding.

A fantastic wedding videographer!

Tom from Hawaiian Shirt Photography was a fantastic videographer! From various wedding forums, I had read that having a video to remember the day is one of the things people cherish the most after the wedding day, and they are right! Tom has created a beautiful highlights video and an hour long video of the day for us and they are absolutely fantastic! Tom very very kind and funny throughout the day and captured some lovely moments between myself and my groom, and of all of our guests. Everyone loves the video and I never get tired of watching my highlight video and seeing just how happy everyone was on our special day. I cannot recommend Tom enough and I am so thankful for the lovely videos he created!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

That has to be the one that didn't go ahead because the bride and groom had an argument the night before, they were both staying at the same venue!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, Creative, Fun, Unobtrusive, Candid.

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm proud that I've been able to continually improve the quality of my work and service since I started and now consistently get amazing feedback from my bride and grooms.

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

Allow plenty of time in the day, don't try to fit too much in as time will fly by (and wedding guests are really slow!)

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

I've had a couple of weddings recently where the bride has worn flashing white trainers.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I try and be as invisible as I can, for the couple shoot I'll ask you to do a few random things but the best photos will probably be when you don't know I'm taking them.

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

I'd suggest going to talk to old relatives and I will capture natural ones of that which are usually really lovely.

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

A groom pretended he had powers, waved his arms and all the groomsmen leant back as if they were falling over.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Depends on the time of year, if it's in the summer, it's usually fun to go out with umbrellas, if it's the winter I'm not going to make you get cold, we will find a nice spot inside for photos.

Describe how you got into photography.

Natural and candid, creative in terms of angles and interesting shots but I'm not someone who will spend ages setting stuff up and takes over the day.
