Robin Goodlad Photography Full Description
Getting married is one of the most incredible things you will do in your life. Putting how you feel on your day into words is difficult, but it can be achieved with pictures. Which is where I come in; capturing the emotion, the journey, your story. Wedding photography really is an investment for life, and future generations. I feel it is so important to capture the day perfectly, and preserve forever. You write the script. My focus is then upon documenting your story beautifully, through observation, not orchestration, with attention paid to every detail. I believe a wedding should be photographed sympathetically and subtly. A quiet observer, blending into the background, telling the Story, from start to finish. And when I say the finish, that means capturing every element of your day, right till the end, if you wish.

We wouldn't book the wedding unless Robin was available!

Yhe title says it all! However, I want to say more. Robin is a dream to work alongside. We met Robin a few years back and was captured by the depth of his work. Robin utilises light, gets to know his know his subjects effortlessly and works alongside you throughout. We booked an engagement shoot with Robin prior to the day which was the best decision for us as it meant we relaxed and we got to know Robin and his style and vice versa. We then used some of those images at our venue and all guests loved them. On the day, Robin was dressed smartly, organised, approachable and totally on it. His professionalism, communication and drive is why he is exactly the right person for us to have worked with, I was able to sit back and relax, trusting him 100% to capture the day, his way. Robin knows his stuff...share your wishes, then allow him to work the magic, you will not be disappointed. Take Robin's advice of who he has worked with before in regards to videographer. When you have a mix of professionals who have worked together previously and trust one another, then it is so dreamy to work with them, and seeing how they communicate is next level.

Robin was amazing!

Robin was amazing! We are so glad we chose him as our wedding photographer. We also decided a couple of months before the wedding to have a second photographer and she was also great! Thank you for capturing our day so perfectly!

The most incredible photographer

The most incredible photographer we've had the pleasure to know and have shoot our wedding. From the first meeting Robin made us feel comfortable and well informed of how his unique style could make the most impact at our wedding. He captured everything, every little detail. When we look at our pictures, we can feel each moment. The emotion, love and joy he captured in every picture is going to stay with us for a lifetime.

Wow what incredible photos!

Wow what incredible photos! Robin did such a great job at capturing our wedding day and we are so happy with the final results, they’re really beautiful. He was also great to work with, we managed to meet up with him before and immediately knew we were in safe hands. We loved his relaxed and flexible approach and ability to read the weather and seize opportunities on what was a tricky weather day. He’s very creative in how he incorporates the character of the venue into the photography.

Robin did such a wonderful job of capturing our da

Robin did such a wonderful job of capturing our day. He took amazing photos throughout the day and we barely knew he was there. The organised photos were done quickly and efficiently and he gave great tips for other photos too. He also worked well with our videographer. I would highly recommend Robin if you are looking for a wedding photographer! Thank you so much

We chose Robin because we loved his natural light

We chose Robin because we loved his natural light wedding photographs, and he did not disappoint! We've only received the previews so far (as quickly as 2 business days after our wedding!!!) - but he has managed to capture some very special and beautiful moments. We hadn't even realised he was there - and some were moments we hadn't even thought he'd be able to capture. All of our guests commented on how lovely Robin is, and it made it so much easier for the both of us as we're not the type of p

Amazing!

We hired Robin for our wedding photos, and we really couldn't recommend him enough. Robin was patient, friendly, and a true professional - from the moment we met, we knew our photos were in safe hands, but he has completely exceeded our expectations! We're absolutely blown away by the photos, and he captured every moment perfectly, while some how managing to do so so discreetly that we hardly realised he was there! We would 100% recommend Robin to anyone looking for a photographer

What can I say! Absoloutly amazing!

What can I say! Absoloutly amazing! Robin is very professional and communicated with us throughout! Is a photographer who appealed to us because of his natural approach to photography and his portfolio was amazing! He did everything to capture this vibe on our wedding day (or at least the official one, due to postponing the big day!).... robin took advantage of different lighting of the day and the surrounding environment which was spectacular.

Robin was the most fantastic wedding photographer...

Robin was the most fantastic wedding photographer. We are absolutely thrilled with the photos. Most of the comments back from our friends have been that they are speechless and there are no words to describe how good they are. He fitted in perfectly to our day and the pictures truly represent the emotion and atmosphere. We will always be so grateful to Robin for capturing the memories of our very special day.

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

One where an RAF Sea King Helicopter flew above a lake in Wales to salute the groom, who was a decorated pilot. A seriously emotional and unforgettable moment!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Elegant, classic, beautiful, spectacular

What about your business are you most proud of?

My anticipation of natural light to ensure my clients look incredible, and my dedication to ensuring that I cover every detail of the day from start to finish, and that means right until the end of the day!

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

Always ask to see a complete wedding from a photographer, not just the portfolio. It is the complete set of images that you will receive after all.

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

When the groom arranged a performance of Les Miserable by opera singers as a complete for the bride, the whole reception stood for an ovation, such a beautiful and unforgettable touch.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I always like to meet first before a booking, to ensure that we have a great fit, and that we know that working together is going to be amazing. This relationship is essential, and we build on this through the pre-wedding shoot, and further meetings as required, so that on the day everything just flows seamlessly. On the day I photograph quietly, through observation, not orchestration. It is the couple's day after all, and my focus is upon documenting everything as it happens.

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

The photo which they weren't expecting, but which perfectly sums up their day! I don't like to be too prescriptive, it is down to personal taste. But it has to be one where the couple feel totally at ease with each other, and totally happy. Trust your photographer, and for me I will always seek that one shot which shows the couple in the place they have chosen to get married, in the most magical light I can find.

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

If I am being asked to take a particular photo, then perhaps it isn't that original, but I certainly get asked to capture certain moments, which I then interpret in my own style Perhaps my favourite so far has been a first dance high in the lake District Mountains at sunset, I haven't seen this anywhere else.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Relax, and enjoy the day, as the rain really doesn't make a difference, just carry on! Rainy days produced the most beautiful soft light, and the reflections are incredible. Don't necessarily see rain as a bad thing, a great photographer will know how to take the best shots, and you probably won't remember it was even raining at all!

Describe how you got into photography.

I picked up a camera at the age of 5, and have never looked back. It is my passion, and why I exist. If I am not shooting a wedding, I can be found somewhere else, taking photos of other things. Photographing a wedding is not a job for me, it is what I love, and I feel this really comes through in my work.
