A very belated review but Matt did our wedding photos back in August and we could not have asked for anything more. The photos were perfect and captured all the moments that we wanted! Matt is lovely and makes you feel very at ease. My family commented multiple times on how beautiful the photos are and how Matt was a wonderful photographer. He even helped to make sure my dress looked perfect in the photos! He left very discretely so we didn’t get chance to say a proper thank you to him, so thank you so much Matt! You get what you pay for and these photos were worth every penny! Have a great new year! X More...

Having known Merv since doing my work experience with him and Matt at Field Photographic, there was no one I'd have rather picked to do our newborn shoot, especially as our little girl was only 9 days old when we went. Welcoming and friendly atmosphere and no messing around, great images that captured exactly what we wanted and Merv was great in accommodating us when we had to cancel our viewing appointment, being able to provide us to see the photos so we could purchase in time for Christmas still.

Matt was a pleasure to deal with throughout our whole wedding planning, the photos from our engagement shoot and wedding are absolutely stunning and captured our day perfectly. Some of the shots I had no idea Matt was even around or in the room and he often blended in well with the guests. The documentary style is great as it shows the whole day from getting ready to the first dance. I didn’t think I’d want any getting ready photos and I had no idea what Matt even took as it was a bit hectic but they turned out amazing and I love them. Thank you so much for capturing our special day and having such fantastic photos to treasure. More...

Matt took our wedding photos last week and was an absolute super star! After working with Matt for years in the wedding industry I knew he would shoot the most incredible photos of our big day. He arrived early on the day, as he always does! He made everyone feel so comfortable and relaxed throughout the day, I didn't notice that he was there getting ready, in the ceremony or at the meal, he took the most perfect photographs whilst being super unobtrusive. All of our outside photos are amazing, I really appreciated all of Matt's guidance with where to move my head / bouquet / fluffing out my dress as I'm not a natural in front of the camera and this really helped us get the most amazing photos of our day. Thank you Matt for helping us to capture a day of making the most treasured memories that we will cherish for life x More...

Merv = absolute legend. I was determined that Merv would be our photographer and now I’m even more glad we had him. Never have I felt so comfortable and relaxed In front of a camera. Dale and I had so much fun. It was a hard time with losing my mum a few weeks prior but Merv made it easy to relax and enjoy the moment. Merv is friendly, funny and professional.

both me and my husband couldn't thank Matt enough for capturing our day in the best pictures ever! he was amazing at getting the perfect angles and shots to capture the moments of our day and when we look through our wedding album, it's just like being there all over again. and it's not just those perfect pictures where everyone is prepared, it's those moments when Matt was able to catch the bloopers and the natural moments throughout the day as well. He was so great at working with us, he was happy to create the shots we wanted, no matter how challenging some may have been. We would highly recommend everyone to use Matt to photograph their wedding day, he is just brilliant More...

We can not recommend Merv enough, he made us both feel so relaxed and kept us giggling through all the photos. We are over the moon with our wedding photos, better than I could hope for. The photos capture every detail from the dress and suit to the flowers and scenery of our amazing venue. Finding it very hard to pick just a few for our photo frames as we love every single one. It rained on our wedding day and I was worried about being able to get out and have photos outside but Merv just took this in his stride and did an amazing job, creating great memorable photos.

We chose Field Photography for our wedding day on 12/07/19 at Shottle Hall. My wife had previously met Matt at her maid of honour’s wedding and was keen to get him on board. Matt came to our house on a weekend a few weeks before the wedding to run though all the shots we wanted with certain friends and family. On the wedding day he visited our house where my wife and bridesmaids were getting ready and took some pictures, then onto the venue for pictures of my best man and myself. After the ceremony we had an hour or so of pictures all around the grounds. After this he mingled and blended in. It was only upon receiving the pictures after the wedding that we saw just how many there were before, during an after the ceremony that we didn’t even notice him take. These are my favourite as they are the most natural, such as the look when I first saw at my wife’s dress and various other snaps of people laughing and chatting. We also had the pictures from the first dance and shots around the grounds in the evening which all look fantastic. We’re both so glad we chose Matt for our special day. The professional service, enthusiasm, friendliness and fantastic quality of shots mean we would most definitely recommend Field Photography for anyone considering. Thank you, Dan and Leanne. More...

We had the pleasure of using Matt to photograph our wedding at Shottle hall in September 2018.The photos was brilliant!Both myself and my husband are not really 'posers' however Matt made the whole process feel relaxed and natural. Despite a little bit of rain on the day, Matt managed to encourage all of our 124 guests outside for group shots, persuade a reluctant bride to brave the rain and even managed to get our lovely Labrador to behave well for photos :)One of the best decisions we made when planning our wedding was using Field Photographic to capture our amazing day.Highly recommend ***** More...

When we first started looking for a wedding photographer we were really taken aback by how stunning Matt's use of light and nature is. Matt was an absolute dream to liaise with from day one. Planning a wedding is very stressful and being able to rely on a supplier makes all the difference as it's one less part of the wedding to worry about.We're so happy with our wedding photos. Matt must have ninja skills as he managed to take many lovely photos of moments we hadn't realised were being captured! Throughout the long day Matt was enthusiastic, accommodating, cheerful and helpful. It can't be easy to coordinate the family shots in bad weather in December, but Matt managed this smoothly and swiftly.The online gallery feature is superb and it was fantastic to be able to easily share the photos with family and friends.We're chuffed to have such lovely photos to remember our special day and wouldn't hesitate to contact Matt in the future.

Merv at Field Photographic is truly amazing. From the first meeting to collecting our stick and prints he never lost his enthusiasm! The weather was horrendous on our wedding day, but Merv still managed to capture the whole day with some fantastic photos. (We even ended up in a cornfield and got some great shots that we will cherish forever).
I would recommend Field Photographic to anyone, and can say with confidence that you will never be disappointed in the service provided.
We can't thank Merv and Matt enough and will definitely use them again at the next opportunity.
Thanks again.

Merv was our wedding photographer 4 years ago, and did an absolutely fantastic job capturing all the key moments of the day, as well as events away from the main attraction that we didn't see ourselves.

This year we returned for a studio session with our 1year old son. Merv was absolutely great with our little one (and very patient too). The results were absolutely fantastic.

On price, we think for the quality and service you receive using Field Photographic is worth every penny. (You'll be hard pushed to find much of a saving elsewhere.)

Very highly recommended. We will continue to return. Thank you!

Well where do i start.............We spoke to a large number of photographers & Merv was the only one that spoke to us as a couple & not a "sales pitch". We cannot recommend Merv highly enough from the first meeting to the wedding & then afterwards he was a complete professional & had our best interests at heart. Merv was very organised & checked throughout that everything was what we wanted & the day couldn't have gone any better. We really enjoyed our "little walk" with Merv & got some amazing pictures. If you want a professional caring photographer that gets the job done & organised then book Merv! Our pictures tell a story & we have some amazing pictures. Merv is a character & you can tell he loves what he does. His enthusiasm shines through & is very infectious making the pictures fun (even though i usually don't like my picture taken).
Thank you so much, we couldn't have asked for anymore x

Sam & I booked Field Photographic based on recommendations and after seeing previous wedding photos around Morley Hayes, the venue for our wedding reception. From our initial meeting with Merv, we felt excited and knew we were in good hands. Merv’s enthusiasm, ideas and knowledge of our chosen venues surpassed our expectations. Merv was a big hit with our wedding guests, his personality and sense of humour kept guests entertained, whilst organising family & friends into the pre-discussed groups. Merv captured all the photos we hoped he would and when it came to deciding photo’s for our wedding album/storybook it was very difficult to pick a selection as all the photos were lovely, grasping the most important parts of our day.

We visited Merv at his studio for a family session with our 7 month old after receiving a gift voucher as a present. To say we weren’t looking forward to having our photos taken is an understatement but as soon as we walked in Merv put us at ease, so much so that I totally forgot that I didn’t like having my photo taken! He was brilliant with my little girl who was reluctant to smile in the unusual surroundings, and all in all he made the session really fun.

We have been back to see Merv for our viewing today where we watched a slideshow of all of the images before Merv explained the various option available to us for prints and digital images. Merv explained everything clearly, and most importantly of all, without pressure to buy. We now have all of our beautiful images on a CD and we eagerly await our print.

An absolutely first class service, I would not hesitate in recommending Merv to anyone for their photography needs and we will definitely be back.
