My style is spontaneous and candid, with just a few lightly posed shots. I’m there for all the little moments you might not even notice — those first “this is actually happening” nervous grins, the teary hugs, your mates laughing at something stupid, kids going wild, and the full-on dance floor mayhem later.

We’ll do a handful of posed shots (20–30 mins max) — just enough for nice light in a good spot — then I’m back out of the way so you can get on with the fun. All relaxed and super simple. No holding smiles forever or stiff poses. No stopping the party. Nothing cringe! Just photos that actually feel like your wedding.

A two hour+ wedding photography plan that covers the exciting essentials of an amazing day, coverage includes ceremony and formal and contemporary informal images at the ceremony location.
Carefully optimised images are placed in a password protected Swiss gallery for you family and friends to download directly from our website.

I'm an multi award winning wedding photographer (L.M.P.A, L.B.I.P.P, L.S.W.P.P, L.R.P.S, 7 further awards from Master Photographers Association, Qualified with Elite wedding photographers and recognised as one one the top 100 photographers in the United Kingdom).  When you book me you are investing in a professional who genuinely cares and is passionate about your day.

I want to give my clients something excitingly creative and absorbing, photography is the one lasting thing that you will have and continue to enjoy for the long term future.
For the most part I am in the background telling the story of the day through the lens, at times to get the best for my clients I might suggest certain things which to enhance the image, formal family shots or couple shots.

I used to be a commercial fashion and advertising photographer up until the early 90's but decided to plough headlong into wedding capture, in truth I wanted to make a difference. Wedding photography at that time was super formal and static. It didn't show personality just endless groups of people and lots of soft focus!
Due to my background in editorial magazines, my style from the beginning was free flowing, informal and fresh, in direct contrast to my competitors at the time.
Today I really work to achieve the very best story telling images for my clients, I want them to have something exciting, special and often unique and creatively different to enjoy.
Photography style constantly reinvents its self, it's important that clients enjoy the best lifestyle imagery.

In a career of 40 or so years I have shot well over 1000 weddings now, so many locations and now spread over four countries, attended ceremonies from the Ritz to the Savoy, beautiful castles from Leeds to Hever and stunning hotels
from Eastwell Manor to London's Claridges.

I'm truly passionate about my work and the style and ideas that go into each image that I take. I'm relaxed, approachable and patient with a certain amount of humour : ) (important qualities if you want to get the best out of people)

At the end of the day your wedding is all about you. Your family, friends and relatives are there to celebrate with you. Be your true self with your quirky personality. Do things that make you happy, I will be there to record those moments and so much more in abundance.

Engagement sessions are the best way for you and me to get to know each other. They help me to get a feel of how you interact with each other and figure out how I can tell the absolute best version of your story. You will also understand what it is like to be in front of the camera and this will make you feel even more comfortable on the wedding day.

The entire experience from session planning, wardrobe styling and the photo shooting itself is exciting and fun. Choose some location that resonates with your personality. We can go to a place of your first date, a stunning picturesque location outside the city or simply hang out in your apartment. You can use Pinterest to get some inspiration for your session location and outfit. If you’re in an environment and doing something that you really enjoy, those emotions & chemistry will flow naturally and the photos will be more authentic.

Get in touch now - I'd love to hear about your vision.

I've have had 15 glorious years photographing mainly in and around London and the home counties. I'm Time Out Recommended, and winner of the Hitched Wedding Awards 2022 to 2026 and also the 2025's Wedissimo Wedding Awards among others. First and foremost I really listen to what it is that couples are looking for, what they value, and I aim to reflect that. I was a fashion and advertising photographer for name brands previously, so I'm used to adapting to a brief and I love a challenge! I'm very easy with people and inherently friendly. I shoot natural candid images, as well as epic if that's your thing. I only use top of the range cameras and lenses for the best possible image quality on your once only day. We also have a full day package on here with myself and Joanna (my wife) as second shooter. If you want to have that one instead then you can either add her here, or choose the full day David and Joanna package. You can also add Rory for quality full day cinematic video coverage, and epic 4K highlight reels, working alongside me if that's an option you value. Some of his video reels are featured here on the listing. I also have tons of Google reviews you can check out too, nearly a 100 if you scroll down. I/we look forward to hearing your plans, and happily answering any and all of your questions :-) David
