Thank you James for photographing and filming our wedding. We are over the moon with how wonderful they all are. You have managed to capture the day brilliantly and in such a unobtrusive way. We just can’t stop watching our film and reliving the day all over again! The photographs are equally as stunning and we have received so many compliments on how gorgeous and well they were done. Thank you so much ❤️ More...

Amazing photographer. Felt really comfortable around James, would barely have known he was at the wedding with how discreet he was. When we were taken off for pictures it was only for a short period of time, was fun and did not feel we were missing out on anything on our big day. Just put our album together and absolutely love it. Thank you so much! Highly recommend More...

James photographed our wedding on 7th August this year and he was brilliant from start to finish. We didn’t want a lot of staged pictures and he kept these to a minimum. He practically disappeared into the background for most of the day. We can’t recommend James enough and really made the day special. He was so easy to work with and all our friends were impressed with how friendly he was with everyone. He really made the most of the stunning venue and weather and the photographs he’s produced are beautiful. He definitely made the right choice with the change of careers. More...

James is pretty much everything you want out of a wedding photographer. He's friendly and accommodating, builds a great rapport, can blend into the background or chat to your guests and, most importantly, his photographs are stunning. We'd recommend him to anyone.

Last July I had the pleasure of working with James on a wedding together for the first time. What can I say James was incredible! I had styled the Brides hair who was a very good friend so I got to see James's professional yet relaxed approach though-out the Bride and Grooms whole day. I could tell James was so passionate about creating the perfect images! If you want amazing wedding images by a stand up dude then book James!!! :) More...

James did an absolutely incredible job and it was a joy to have him be a part of our day. The photos (engagement shoot and from the day itself) are unbelievable, and all our guests raved about him…as did the venue who gave him a free feed! ! You really couldn’t ask for a more personable photographer, and you’ll end up viewing him as one of your guests, just like we did. It was a real pleasure to share our day with James, and would and will recommend him to absolutely everyone. We couldn’t ask for more. Thank you! More...

So sorry that this has taken so long James, but even though the day was such a long time ago now I just wanted to say a big thank you! ! Adam and I are so incredibly happy with our photos, you managed to somehow take lovely photos of two very nervous, camera-shy, excessive-blinkers. My favourite photos are the ones where you have captured those little moments between Adam and I. Thank you for being part of our day, and capturing it so beautifully. More...

Was a pleasure to have James photograph our wedding at the weekend. He made us all feel at ease and most of all was enjoyable to have around all day! The best piece of advice we were given when choosing a wedding photographer was to pick someone who you could get along with all day and we got that spot on when we chose James. Can't wait to see the photos in a few weeks! More...

We have just received our photographs and we absolutely love them!! We don't know how we are going to choose which ones to frame, we want them all! !
We had seen James' work before and 100% knew that he was the photographer we HAD to have for our Wedding, in fact, we even made sure James was free for the day of our Wedding before we confirmed it with the venue.
He did not disappoint, he is so friendly and laid back and at times, we hardly knew he was there. He took us off for our couples photographs and we weren't long at all so we couldn't believe how many great shots he captured when we saw the finished result.
We loved our Wedding Day so much and we are so pleased that James was there to capture it and all the little details. A lot of our guests have also commented on what a top guy he is and that he wasn't trying to take over the day, but still managed to get everyone where they needed to be for the important photographs.
We would not hesitate in recommending James to everyone we know, he really is amazing!!

I had the upmost pleasure of working alongside James today at a wedding. My face possibly hurt from giggling so much as James blended into the bridal prep so well & was such a genuine, lovely, down to earth guy. He has a natural approach to photography so wasn't intrusive in bridal prep nor demanding which is perfect from a makeup artists perceptive. What more do you want? He is THAT easy to get along with that when he left the room all the bridesmaids thought we were long time friends. Such a breath of fresh air! Thanks for an awesome bridal morning James - look forward to seeing the images. More...

From our initial meeting, James was friendly and professional. He was an absolute joy to have around on the day. He made us all feel comfortable and relaxed at all times of the day.

James was amazing on our special day. He put myself at ease from the moment that he arrived at the hotel for the wedding prep, and managed to get all of the photos that we wanted on the day without ever making us feel rushed. He's an all round nice bloke that is extremely talented in what he does. We've had so many compliments for our beautiful photos and would recommend James Tracey in a heartbeat - the quality of the pictures and the service that he provides really are priceless.

We can’t thank James enough for capturing every moment of our special day. Our photographs are beautiful and we will cherish them forever. On the day, he made us all feel at ease and was very friendly with everyone. All our guests commented on the day about how incredible he was and since receiving the photos, we’ve had so many compliments. We didn’t even realise he was there taking photos at the time, James is very unobtrusive and got any outdoor photos in a very short space of time (very important when your wedding is in December!). All in all, we couldn’t recommend James enough and we are so pleased that we made such a great decision to have him as our wedding photographer. More...

Couldn't be happier with our wedding photographs. James quietly works in the background to capture the real emotion and fun of your wedding. He creates perfect, relaxed and natural photographs and is great at professionally choreographing the intimate and family shots. First class, would recommend to everyone.

James was great on the day. He helped make me feel relaxed on the morning chatting about Sigur Ros and Friends, and the photos are just amazing.

If you book James you will not be disappointed! I found James on Instagram and once I had discovered his page I didn’t need to look any further. His beautiful pictures speak for themselves and I was instantly attracted to his style of photography. Neither myself or my husband are particularly keen on having our picture taken and we didn’t want to have a lot of portraits. James’ documentary style was absolutely perfect for us and just what we were looking for. After a chat on the phone with James when he answered our questions we knew he was the guy for us. He is so friendly and professional and made us feel completely at ease throughout the day. We booked a second photographer and were very lucky to have Steve Rooney join him. We had a lot of fun and that was really reflected in our photos. They are absolutely stunning and we couldn’t be happier with them. They are beautiful keepsakes of the day and we will cherish them forever. The difficult part will be narrowing them down to make an album!
Thank you James! Love from Laura and Ed xx
