The perfect photographer who captured everything we wanted and more!

I have admired Phil's work for a number of years now and when it came to choosing a photographer for our special day there was only 1 person I wanted. He has an exceptional eye for capturing those magic and meaningful shots and every photo tells a perfect moment and story. On the day he made myself and partner feel at ease and all our guests and family said how wonderful he was. He captured everything we wanted and more and it was better than I ever thought they could be. If you wanted a photographer who will put you at ease, go above and beyond and create you the most magical memories then Phil Burke is the photographer you need!

Couldn’t of asked for a better photographer!

From start to finish Phil was amazing! Totally professional and made all the wedding part and guest feel comfortable. He went above and beyond by taking 2 elderly guests back to their home who struggled to get a taxi. Nothing was to much trouble. The whole family have commented on the quality of our album and photos. I would recommend him 100%.

Brilliant!! Book now :)

I really cannot reccomended Philip enough. He was amazing throughout. Both me and my husband hate photos but he made us feel so much at ease all day and we love the photos so much! He was so helpful throughout the day making our day even more perfect. He's even good at untangling necklaces! You can really tell he has a great passion for what he does. Thanks again Philip!

Perfection!

Phil was recommended by a friend and I could not be happier! He made us feel relaxed from day one and is just the right mix of fun and professional. Everyone commented on how fab he was on the day and looking over the finished pictures took us right back! More than one person has said that they are the best wedding pictures ever and we can’t agree more! The emotion in each picture shines through!

If you don't choose Philip, you're a burke

I literally can't rate Philip highly enough, he's an amazing photographer. Half stand up comedian, half ninja. When you know he's there he'll get you laughing and get rid of any pre-wedding jitters, when you don't he'll capture some beautiful images. We literally didn't see him at all during the wedding breakfast but he got some great photos. He redefines going above and beyond, from sorting out button holes and running errands to standing in the middle of the river at Bolton Abbey in pitch black just to get the perfect photo. He even personally delivered the USB sticks to us, something I doubt others would go to the effort of doing. Choose this guy and you'll be writing a review like this, I guarantee it.

Was overwhelmed by the first photos the next day..

Hands down the best person I could have possibly found for our wedding. Had a meeting to discuss things to start and knew this was gonna be good. Eased us in with some engagement photos which were amazing. Couldn’t have asked for a better man for the day.... did the most amazing job, every guest commmented on how amazing he was. Was overwhelmed by the first photos the next day.... WOW. WOW. WOW!!! The rest followed promptly and we were so happy!!! I’ve heard so many horror stories of ruined photos, bad memories and long delays to receive anything. Do not hesitate!!!! Book now!!!!

Hands down THE BEST photographer I’ve ever come ac

His energy and passion is infectious ( but not overbearing) and it’s always evident that he genuinely wants his customers to have the very best experience on the day and to produce the kind of photos that make you say “Wow”.. I was lucky enough to have Philip shoot my wedding and I could not have been more impressed by his professionalism, eye for detail and natural ability to identify unique and artistic opportunities. The added bonus of using Philip is that he a down to earth and genuinely great guy.. He was a calming influence for me on the day and all of my guests loved him! Cannot recommend him highly enough and want to thank him again for the absolutely amazing job he did!!!

If you looking for beautiful photos, a talented, q

Phil takes great care in getting the perfect shots and has an easy going but pro active manner on the day ... he makes the photos fun and interacts with your guests and even provides a little humour without taking over the day. We love our photos Phil - thank you. As always I will be recommending you in the future.
