The Bearded Man Photography

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Paul as our wedding photographer. He went above and beyond from start to finish, making the whole day feel enjoyable, relaxed, and completely natural. When we received our photos, we were stunned, genuinely blown away by the quality and the moments he captured. These are images we’ll treasure forever, and we can’t wait to share them with our family and friends. Paul’s work is next-level. If you’re looking for a photographer, look no further we would recommend him to absolutely anyone. Thank you, Paul. you were amazing. Mr & Mrs Challans-Peters

Paul was amazing! He was so kind and patient - he seemed to instinctively know everything we wanted on our big day! And when we received our pictures - we made a big deal of it (full date night) and we were not disappointed! Totally overwhelmed with love and joy!! Paul made it real for us all over again!

Whether you’re the type of couple that plans things meticulously in the years leading up to your big day (like us!), or the couple that prefers to roll with it and let things unfold organically (how we ended up on the day!), Paul is certainly the man you want behind the camera. Incredible photos aside, Paul knows how to position himself with you, your guests and your venue. He knows what’s going to work on camera but he also has a fantastic sense for the small moments that you never knew you’d have. He captured everything so seamlessly, all of the cliche moments you’d want in your wedding day and all of the hidden bits that make your day YOURS. Paul sent us a preview of some of the shots (I think it was about 10) on the actual evening of our wedding. It’s such a fantastic touch given you know that you’ll be waiting for the full collection, and it really helps give you a sense of the story of your day. We cried at these after looking at them with our family and friends (for good reasons of course!), and then cried about five more times when we looked at the full album back with our nearest and dearest a month or so after. He’s a special photographer and a real safe pair of hands to have on your special day. It’s the little things too, I remember a chat with Paul once he’d started to pack his things away. He still, hours and hours later, was so interested in us as people and our story. We told him we were going to Iceland for our mini moon and soon enough sent us the Aurora forecast so we had the best chance of seeing the Northern Lights. He’s a top bloke, a talented photographer, and we wouldn’t recommend him enough.

I cannot express how happy I am with my photos from Paul! He captured our wedding in the exact way I wanted (and more!). Paul is relaxed and laid back but in the most perfect way. You almost don’t realise he’s there doing a job as it all feels so natural and easy. After reviewing the photos, the compliments and appreciation have poured in from our friends and family, and rightly so. On the evening of the wedding, Paul sent over a preview of some of our best photos. This was something I never knew I even needed, but it was very welcomed as meant I could share with friends and family the next morning and continue that ‘wedding bubble’ feeling. I truly believe good work should be celebrated and praised - Paul is an amazing photographer and I can’t thank him enough for the memories he’s captured!

We love our wedding photos! We chose Bearded man, Paul because we liked the style of the photos we saw on the website. Paul was great on the day, he captured some great artistic cool shots that capture the light and also some lovely natural ones of everyone together. Would recommend highly, thanks Paul

Paul is fantastic!! Highly recommend if you're looking for a photographer for your special day. He made us feel so relaxed from the get go with his calm energy, and chilled, but incredibly professional approach. We absolutely adore our photos. I didn't even notice him taking them and there's so few that are posed. The rest are all natural and he's captured some truly special moments. Literally couldn't have asked for anything better.

He really seemed to understand our vibe, giving great energy and ideas to capture the magic of our wedding for years to come. He was flexible, friendly and worked well with our content creator. We would recommend him to others looking for great photos.

We had the amazing pleasure of meeting Paul at a friends wedding. His incredibly relaxed and gentle manner put everybody at ease and yet His photographs are both technically exceptionally clever and artistically stunning. We Asked him to photograph our Handfasting ceremony And the photographs are absolutely precious. My brother was so impressed that he booked Paul on the night for his own wedding. Genuinely, Couldn’t have asked for a More amazing experience.

Paul photographed our wedding at The start of August and he did a brilliant job. Right from booking he was really responsive and his website is easy to navigate/understand. I had done a lot of research in to local photographers and Paul's work stood out to me, loved his style. On the day of our wedding he arrived early and was a calming and (sometimes!) unseen presence around us. My partner is very photophobic but Paul was great at setting up shots and making us feel relaxed, nothing was too forced or unnatural. He was also very patient with our overtired toddler who was slightly harder work then usual! Our photos arrived just shy of 2 months later and they were beautifully presented with a Bearded Man USB stick in a muslin bag. We don't even remember seeing him for some of the shots and he captured everything beautifully. My only regret would be not booking him for longer!

Knowing Paul and the work he has done over the years, I was delighted that he had availability to shoot our big day. Not only that but that he'd also agree to be dragged out to Italy for a few days to do it! Paul was across everything in the run-up to the weekend with check-ins as often as we needed them and was always keenly interested in our requests and what we wanted out of his work. Throughout the weekend he was totally present and there whenever we needed him. Keeping us calm when plans went awry with the weather or having a good laugh and striking up great rapport with ourselves and our guests. The subsequent turnaround and delivery was first rate and we could not believe just how soon after we would be able to relive our day through his amazing photography. The results were fantastic and exactly what we wanted, so many wonderful photos and memories from the across two days that Paul was shooting. Thanks again Paul!
