Neil Ridley

We met with Neil locally and immediately were put at ease, we are not very confident in front of the camera and didnt want to be posing all day, just natural pictures and capturing us and our guests just the way we are. That is exactly what we got, a set of lovely pictures which told the story of our wedding day. Neil worked tirelessly during the day, ensuring to capture precious moments, and Sam keeping us up to date after the event. We also met up with neil for a pre wedding shoot and had a right laugh, further confirming our choice. Couldn't have wanted anything more, we can highly recommend Neil.

We first met Neil and his wife Sam at a wedding fayre, we hadn't even booked our wedding yet but knew that Neil was the person we wanted to capture our special day. The service Neil and Sam provided was seamless from start to finish, we didn't have to think about anything. Timely, professional, and very reasonably priced. Our guests commented on how at ease they were as Neil discretely snapped away at all those moments we can now cherish forever. He was also great with our two young sons, the photos of which never fail to bring a tear to my eye. When we received our photos it was just like being back there enjoying the day all over again, Neil captured the atmosphere and told the story of our day perfectly. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend him, he's most definitely proven that every wedding needs a Neil!

We booked Neil for our Asian wedding and he did a fantastic job! He was so accommodating, organised and prepared! Neil made the effort to make sure he knew exactly what was happening on the wedding day and the days leading up to the day... right down to what we were wearing to make sure he captured every moment! Our guests felt very comfortable and the kids loved him! Most importantly he captured exactly what we wanted and how we wanted it. I was very hesitant about booking him at first because he had never done an Asian wedding before, but I'm so glad I did!

Amazing service from start to finish What a lovely guy Neil is Extremely professional and very down to earth at the same time His pictures of our wedding day were absolutely beautiful we love every single one

I can’t describe how amazing and talented this company is. They hold such a special place in our lives and gave us memories to hold forever! We love them dearly!

Cannot recommend Neil enough! We met Neil at a wedding fair nearly 18 months before out first day and he was one of the first photographers we met. Despite meeting others, we kept going back to Neil and we are so so glad we did. Neil did an amazing job capturing our wedding. The photos are incredible (so brilliant we are struggling to work out which ones we want printed). He immediately puts you at ease, will talk through ideas as many times as you need and Sam is always at the end of the phone or email if you think of questions you need answering. On the day of the wedding, Neil felt more like a member of the family than a photographer. He blended into the day seamlessly and we enjoyed every second of him being there. If you want beautiful, natural photos to remind you of your special day then Neil is the photographer for you.

Via a mutual friend, Neil found out that we were having a wedding at a castle and not going to have a photographer, he was aghast by this and insisted that she put us in touch with him. We are so glad this happened, we have a set of amazing photos that we wanted from our special day. I have never met someone so passionate and professional. We met with him before hand and he got to know us so he knew what we wanted and what we did not and then made sure that we had loads of fun taking our photos! We live in China and had a complex day planned, this was not a problem for Neil as he is so flexible and cares about the client experience. Thank you so much Neil we now have our favourite sparkler photo blown up to 2 meters x 1 meter above the couch in the living room!!

Wow. We had the best day doing our pre wedding photo shoot! The day was fun and so productive as Neil produced some amazing photos of us which we will cherish forever! He captured fantastic photos of us being us. We could not be more grateful and we would highly recommend Neil to anyone! Thank you again ☺️

There are no words to describe how amazed we were with the professionalism of Neil. Also the quality of the pictures are just stunning. Thank you Neil for all your hard work.

I met Neil at a Wedding Fayre & instantly thought he was someone I could work with, so enthusiastic, friendly and fun! We went to Beacon Fell for a pre-wedding photo shoot, my partner was a bit apprehensive about the whole thing but after a few mins with Neil he completely relaxed! We were really pleased with the pictures we got from the shoot & we are SO excited to see our wedding pictures :-) highly recommend!!
