Amazing and energetic wedding photographer

Tom's photography was A**. The energy and direction he provides on the day is exceptional, and because of him we now have the perfect mementos of our day ❤️

Our perfect day

There are simply not enough words to be able to thank Tom, for the memories and perfect moments he captured on the BEST day of our lives. From the moment we first messaged Tom right up until the last picture he took on our wedding day, he was nothing short of amazing. He made my partner (who was not a fan of the camera) and myself feel so relaxed, like a friend we had known for years. He was there and managed to capture everything beautifully, without even noticing he was there. We had plenty of chats leading up to the wedding to make sure he understood what we were looking for, we were able to bounce ideas off one another and we were left feeling so happy with our choice. A photographer is one of the most important parts of your day and we are SO, SO glad we chose Tom!!

THANK YOU TOM!

Tom Cullen was our photographer for our wedding in November 2023 at The Ravenswood. After speaking to several wedding photographers it was clear that Tom stood out from the rest. We met him on a number of occasions leading up to the wedding day - from an online Zoom call where we could ask him any questions that came to mind to meeting up in person a few months before the big day so we could show him around our wedding venue. Having never visited our venue before, within minutes of arriving Tom found fantastic shots we would never have thought of. The visit was also a great opportunity to show Tom the features of the venue we loved. The photographs from the wedding day itself are absolutely stunning. Tom captured the day perfectly and his photographs really took our breath away. His candid style of working meant that we honestly did not notice him (aside from the posed photographs where he was a great coordinator) and he was able to capture some beautiful natural moments. As well as being a magnificent photographer, Tom is also a lovely person who was a joy to work with. A great communicator who was able to manage a variety of personalities on the day. All of our guests commented on how friendly and approachable he was. We would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for a photographer.

An amazing wedding photographer

When we first spoke to Tom we knew he was the right photographer for us. We really liked the way he worked and knew he would fit into our day perfect. Tom was absolutely amazing on the day and captured our day beautifully from start to finish. From our “posed” pictures to blending in the background to capture some lovely natural shots, Tom really was professional throughout the whole day. Thank you Tom for all your hard work, for capturing our day beautifully and for being our photographer. You truly are the best :-) love Lauren and Daniel

The BEST Photographer around

We were lucky enough to have Tom Cullen as our Photographer for our wedding, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we met at our first wedding fair, it was evident that we were dealing with a true master. Tom has an uncanny ability to capture moments that are not just photographs but pieces of art. Every shot he took seemed to have a magical quality to it, as if he had a special lens that could capture the essence of the moment in its purest form. His attention to detail was impeccable, and he had a knack for finding the perfect angle, lighting, and composition for each shot. I am not comfortable in front of a camera, but Tom put us at ease and made the photography element for us feel effortless and so enjoyable. The end result exceeded our wildest dreams. The photos he captured are not just images but memories frozen in time, each one telling a story of love, joy, and laughter. We are eternally grateful to Tom for his incredible work and would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a wedding photographer. Thank you, Tom, for giving us the gift of these beautiful memories that we will cherish for a lifetime.

If we could give a higher rating, we would!

If we could give a higher rating, we would. Tom is not only an excellent photographer and friendly person but a brilliant organiser and communicator, which led to the day going smoother than we could’ve hoped for. He helped with tasks before the wedding that really took the pressure off both of us. On the day, he was prompt and assertive, yet allowed us to enjoy special moments with our friends and families throughout the day. He captured these natural moments beautifully.

We can't thank him enough!

Tom was amazing from the first zoom meeting to the final goodbye on the Wedding day. Time was tight, traffic held up some guests but he still managed to get all the shots of our dreams! We can’t thank him enough! The best investment on your Wedding Day! I want to do it all over again!!

The best photographer

He helped with tasks before the wedding that really took the pressure off both of us.

He captured these natural moments beautifully, along with the group photos, couple shots and more fun, laid back evening shots. His attention to detail for finding the best photo shots around the venue was first class, and we couldn’t be happier with the photos that he captured throughout the day

5 stars aren’t enough!

Thank you so much Tom, it’s been a month since our wedding and we are still on cloud 9. You’ll never go wrong choosing Tom. You were fantastic on the day and we felt you listened to exactly what we wanted, not only taking amazing pictures but giving us special moments just the two of us without us feeling like we were being watched. We also really appreciated you giving us a small collection for us within the week for us. These moments have given us memories forever and we can’t wait to see all our pictures when they are ready. Thank you will never go far enough.

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

I adore visiting the huge stunning venues full of history and detail. But my most memorable wedding was held at the couple's local pub! It was a beautiful sunny day so they enjoyed live music, afternoon tea and even their wedding speeches in the pub garden. The couple are big sci-fi fans and had chosen a Star Wars themed wedding cake. I just had to add a light saber when editing their 'cutting the cake' photos!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, fun, candid, chilled, creative

What about your business are you most proud of?

The feedback from my couples is that I am like an extra member of the family at the wedding. I see this as a big compliment as I strive to put people at ease so they are comfortable in front of the camera.

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

While planning your big day, don't forget to enjoy it! Think about what interests you as a couple and bring those details into your wedding day to make it unique to you.

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

Couple designed their own wedding logo based on their heritage symbols

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I meet all couples to chat about your wedding and the photography style you like. This also gives you the opportunity to look through some albums and prints of my photos. Before your wedding day, I will visit your venue to scope out some interesting and unique shots for you. I always arrive early on the big day to get some detail shots before your guests start arriving. I capture your day in a documentary style and stay for your evening guest arrivals, first dance and a few dance floor shots too. After editing your photos, I deliver them on a USB stick within 4 - 6 weeks. Those photos are yours to use as you wish. I can create albums and arrange prints for you if that's something you are interested in too.

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

There are so many to choose from! It might sound obvious but a natural/ unposed photo of you two. There will be formal shots taken throughout the day but a natural candid photo of you guys, capturing the moment is my No.1.

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

That's got to be one of my brides throwing an axe at her new husband ... don't ask!!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Embrace the rain! I always have an umbrella in the car on standby , so we can catch a great rain shot. This is Britain after all!

Describe how you got into photography.

I have always been into photography, taking photos since I was a child. When I started I was using actual film and I learned to develop in a makeshift dark room in the family bathroom. I believe that learning the rudiments of photography using film has given me a good understanding of the art form. I married my wife in 2014 and was inspired to get into professional photography by our own wedding photographer!
