About

I love to shoot Landscapes & Seascapes, however my real love is to interact with people. I am a relaxed individual, calm under pressure and I work hard to connect with the needs of others, especially on their wedding Day.
I have a relaxed way of shooting and this shines through to my subjects.

If I could give more than a 5 star I certainly would. James you were absolutely incredible on our day. Considering I had never met you, you really did put me at ease. You are a true gentleman & a very professional photographer. You went above and beyond and made sure all our shots we had discussed where covered, nothing was ever to much trouble. The sneak peeks look amazing and we can’t wait to see the rest. Thank for travelling and for all you did. You are amazing and deserve all the success in the world ❤️ Mr & Mrs Jones xxx More...

James was our wedding photography in may. he is very polite and friendly. his photo's are a fixture of staged group shots, action shots as the day happen and photos which we didn't even know where being taken. he captured our day from start to finish and have given us excellent excellent photos so we always remember our special day.

Couldn’t recommend James anymore he’s a lovely guy that was really responsive to messages and arranging meet ups to find out what we wanted before the big day. He captured all our wedding day memories from the very start without us feeling like we was at a photo shoot, he was so professional and friendly. We received our photos not long after the wedding on a usb so we can watch and choose from them at our own leisure. Thank you so James for helping make our day so special More...

James, Kelly and I can’t thank you enough for being there to capture our special day! I’m so glad we chose you, you’ve been nothing but lovely from the minute I got in contact with you! Warm and friendly and down to earth! Always gets back to us in super quick time, and our guests loved you too! We’ve just received our photos from you less than 2 weeks after the day, and it took us right back to it as we looked through them this evening! A perfect mix of natural photos and professional group shots, you’ve really captured people’s characters and the beautiful scenery of our venue. The efforts you went to to get photos of all the little details means so much to us and we are very grateful for all your help and hard work! I would recommend you a million times over ! More...

Absolutely loved having James as our wedding photographer. He was so professional, yet friendly at the same time making us both feel very comfortable and relaxed. Leading up to the wedding communication was excellent, with him offering great advice re. Timings and location shoots. I can honestly say I am so glad I took on board his suggestions. I will never regret bringing our wedding forward to an earlier time in the day, to make more time for a couple of location shoots on the way to our venue. These photos were beautiful and a great addition to the rest. James mixed well with all our guests and I would highly recommend him to others looking for someone to capture their special day. We have so many photos I can't choose my favourites but so many great memories. More...

We used James to capture our special day, and even though the weather let us down, James's upbeat and positive attitude lifted our spirits up as he insisted that the traditional Ravenscar sea mist would make for some outstanding and unique wedding photos, and he sure was spot on. We were so impressed by James from the moment me met, I knew that we had made the right choice. A true professional and a natural eye for photography and being able to capture amazing photos. I can't recommend him enough, if your wanting a relaxed, fun, and professional photographer for your wedding, choose James Howard photography. He even has that funky rustic look you expect from a wedding photographer More...

We got married late September. James was absolutely fantastic - he took his lead from us and let us be ourselves instead of the more traditional staged pictures. James is a very pleasant and ameniable man whos presence was not intrusive or 'in your face' but a reassuring flash every now and then reminded me that the precious moments of our day would be captured for us to view whenever we wanted after the sun had set on our wedding day. This resulted in some truly magnificent shots! I cannot thank James enough - I will treasure these pictures always. More...

I would highly recommend James for your wedding photography.

We met at our flat before the wedding, where we (and you) will have the opportunity to discuss what pictures you would like and where after the ceremony you would like them too (which for us was at Peasholm Park - great and close if you're getting married at Scarborough Registry Office). We are so happy with our photograph's. So are our guests, as he also photographs your guests on arrival and it's great to see that, as usually you aren't there (Not just posy ones but great natural ones too.)


I was so happy to know, that if you like him on his photography page he will tag you in photographs before you get the full album. So you have a taste and excitement of the pictures to come in the meantime. Definitely a nice touch.


I think he is worth hiring for the whole day, ceremony & evening do. I would love to have had his photographs from that too. A lovely man who is dedicated to capturing the visions you want but also, confident in himself enough to capture and direct moments which turn out to be your favourite photographs, Thank you so much James, from us both. Xx
