"Neil is simply the best photographer. From the minute we met we felt at ease and even though we were a bit nervous in front of the camera, Neil found lots of natural moments to capture that looked amazing as final photos! Neil has a great eye for angles and was able to produce some stunning photos from our wedding venue that made it look like we were in the middle of the countryside (when we weren’t!) We were SO happy with the natural and candid style of Neil’s photography."

"Thank you for sending this through, along with the video. We loved looking at every picture and took us back to our big day. We love them all!! We’d also just like to say the biggest thank you to you for all your efforts on our wedding day, alongside Mark. Almost every guest said how well you worked together as if you were from the same company. You made Jake and I feel at such ease when capturing our moments, which is exactly what we wanted. Thank you SOOOO much!"
H & J - 29th April 2022 - Caswell House Wedding
"Neil, we love you! I think we (or more like I) can be very awkward & camera shy but your photos take all of that away & add so much depth and emotion. We look at your pictures & think, wow, how did you make us look so good! Sounds horrible but we barely noticed you throughout the day because of how natural & non-invasive you were. They are stunning. You’ve captured some great moments and a few funny ones too! We’re really pleased with the photos and thank you again for making us feeling so comfortable on the day."
M & J - 16th April 2022 - Manor Farm Barn Wedding
"In addition to being a truly fantastic photographer, Neil has the incredible skill of always being in the right place at the right time while remaining extremely inconspicuous. We couldn't be happier with the result, and he is such a nice guy to work with. We really can't recommend him highly enough!"
C & J - 28th August 2021 - Cotswold House Hotel & Spa Wedding
"Neil was fantastic to work with. He made the process really smooth and easy for us, which meant it was one last thing for us to worry about on the day. We loved having him be a part of our day, our guests felt very comfortable with him around and he also helped to put us at ease when taking photos around a city of people watching. The photos came out amazing and we're really happy with them! All in all a great service and we would highly recommend him for any special occasion."

We wanted photos that brought a smile to our faces when we look back on our special day. I wanted somebody I could trust to capture all the moments that we were unable to see on the day.

- We really liked Neils work and his portfolio showed his ability to use different photography styles & understand what the client wanted. He is clearly a very skilled photographer & his flexibility is a real positive - he is not set on doing everything in the same way & style - he listens.

Thank you Neil, our photographs are such a treasured part of our day.
- After extensive research online, I realised that many wedding photographers take the sort of photographs that I can take myself.

The photographs were one of the aspects that I identified as a priority for our wedding budget, and we have never regretted choosing Neil.
- Because I was confident that Neil understood what we wanted and that I just trusted that he would capture (and create) all of the wonderful images that he did. I had so many people comment how lovely he was. I didn't have to worry about a thing! Worth every penny!
- Neil's work, unlike many photographers, is natural and not staged. After meeting Neil for the first time we were clear that his calming personality along with the quality and choice of his photos would make our wedding day perfect. A pleasure to have as a 'guest' on our day!
