Jake Bufton Full Description
Favouring a documentary approach, my rich and earthy style has developed over the last 5 years. Understated and organic, my love of nature is infused in my photography. I jump at the chance to take photos or film couples outdoors and often work with couples who feel the same way. I focus on giving you photos that capture the beauty of the day as it was. You won't find me asking you to pop your head out from behind a tree (my parents wedding album is the best) or contorting yourself into poses you didn't think were possible. Instead, I focus on down to earth candid photography and videography.

The best wedding photographer!

We couldn’t recommend Jake enough as a wedding photographer. He captured our wedding day in February this year so beautifully. Jake is so friendly and easy to get along with, he fit seamlessly into our day and felt more like a guest/friend than a supplier. He blended into the background on the day and it never felt like having a camera in your face but he captured the most beautiful moments and memories of our day. Jake took time to get to know us and what we wanted before the day and this combined with his friendly and relaxed approach really helped to put us both at ease in front of the camera. The photos came out so beautifully and are such a gorgeous reminder of our day which we will treasure for a lifetime. Thank you Jake!

THANK YOU JAKE!

Jake was the most considerate, easygoing and joyful wedding photographer! He was incredibly open to taking numerous picture requests (and I mean MANY), patient as I showed him my hundreds of Pinterest photography inspirations and understanding when we had to reschedule some photos due to the groom being ill. His professionalism and willingness to please were evident throughout. As for the quality of work, his Portfolio speaks for itself; Sam and I couldn’t recommend him enough—thank you, Jake!

Could not have asked for better!!

Jake was such a pleasure to work with as our wedding photographer and videographer from start to finish. We both, and all our family and friends, said how comfortable he made us feel and how professional he was. We got EXACTLY what we wished for with our photos and videos and really could not have asked for better/more!!

Beautiful and Emotive Highlights Film

We are absolutely blown away by the beautiful wedding highlights film that Jake has created for us and we are so glad that we chose him to be our videographer! He is such a talent and has managed to capture the day so beautifully including every little special detail and moment that we will cherish forever. He fitted in to the day seamlessly and his fun, friendly and relaxed vibe put everyone at ease, which is evident in the film as everyone looks so happy, relaxed and completely unaware that they’re being recorded! He was also very kind enough to share the full recording of the speeches with us as we couldn’t hear them properly on the day, which we’ll be forever grateful for. It has been really emotional watching the film with family and friends and we can’t thank Jake enough for enabling us to relive the day through his beautiful work.

Best Photographer Ever!

We honestly can not thank Jake enough. Both him and Sam that assisted Jake on our Wedding Day were both amazing. Professional, polite, friendly all of our guests praised them both. The photos and the film that they captured of our day at The Great Tythe Barn on the 6th of October are priceless, It is so lovely to be able to keep looking back at our day and seeing all of our loved ones so happy. We would highly recommend Jake for any event.

Amazing photographer!

We are so happy that Jake agreed to photograph our wedding. He was warm and friendly from the start, with guests commenting on how great he was when it came to getting group shots etc. we found his presence unintrusive but very welcome, he helped us feel at ease and we trusted him completely. Our photos are fantastic, we couldnt have asked for more.

Better than we could’ve imagined!

It’s better than we could have ever imagined! We love it so so much and are eternally grateful that Jake captured the spirit of the day so perfectly for us to cherish forever. It’s so nice seeing things on the video that we didn’t see on the day too it’s just brilliant. It’s obvious that Jake put his heart into it. We loved having Jake there on the day, he was lots of fun to work with but very professional and helped us both feel so relaxed. Jake was awesome on the run up to the day too it was always a total pleasure having a chat!

Fanhams Hall Wedding

Jake was fantastic. He was very attentive leading up to the wedding and made us feel as though we were in capable hands every step of the way. He got the video to us quickly and we couldn't be happier with the quality of his work. The videos perfectly encapsulated the day and its something we will watch and re-watch for years to come. Cant recommend him enough

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

One of my most memorable weddings was Octavia's. I left Bristol to head for the London to film the wedding and after a beautiful ceremony, the couple took a rowing boat down the Thames to be met by bag pipes and a samba band! The speeches were brilliant and heartfelt, just want you want as a photographer and filmmaker!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Documentary, natural, candid, emotive and people-focused.

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm most proud of my ability to put couple's at ease when in front of the camera. As a camera shy person myself, I know what it can feel like not wanting to have your picture taken.

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

When planning your day and finding a moment for couple photos, make sure you don't organise them straight after the ceremony. That's your time to relax, celebrate with your friends and enjoy a well-deserved drink.

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

I've captured a wedding which had a ceremony that included a literal tying of the knot - "an ancient Celtic tradition called the Handfasting Ceremony". It was absolute stunning and a style of ceremony I'd not seen before.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Once a couple reaches out, I'll set up a pre-wedding consultation where we can get to know each other and have a chat about your day. After that I'll send over a contract which is returned with a deposit of £150 and then the date is secured! Then we can stay in contact and have another chat a month before the wedding to go over any changes.
