About

Over the years I have seen many jaded photographers that have shot the same venue so many times that it becomes a disconnected robotic procedure to them, just ticking off a set routine to churn out yet another generic wedding day set of photos.

Wedding Photography

Absolutely 100% satisfied, Phil was a star from start to finish. And such good value for money! His wedding package are perfectly tailored for every couple needs, and he always goes the extra mile, and with a smile! Phil was with us from start of the day to late in the evening, capturing every single moment. We have a mixture of traditional photo shots, and some candid, natural, and "OMG how did he manage to perfectly capture that smile" shots. He also responded positively to every picture request, to our guests' delight. My wedding was perfect, and Phil made it memorable. Choosing Philtography for our wedding photographer was the best decision I took. More...

An excellent experience . Phil is extremely friendly and professional and takes the time to get the perfect shots. He is approachable and can adapt to any situation, even if the little ones don’t make his work the easiest! Great pictures and great service. I would highly recommend him to everyone More...

We found Phil (Philtography) on Facebook and instantly fell in love with his photos. They are so vivid and colourful but natural, the b&w are also really beautiful.

We booked him for our wedding, which was sadly postponed this year till 2021 because of Covid but Phil was really understanding and helpful, rebooking with him was no problem at all.

We wanted to have some photos this year though so we had an engagement / family shoot with him and the photos we got were amazing. He gave us pointers for poses but it was the natural smiles and niggles that he took photos of when we were getting into the poses that we love.

Anyway, Phil's really easy going, friendly and obviously very talented. I couldn't recommend Philtography highly enough.

We really couldn't recommend Phil highly enough! We booked Philtographie for our wedding at The Matara Centre last year and we were so pleased we did. At the time of booking we looked at loads of different photographers and it was turning into a bit of a minefield who to go with. But we spoke with Phil and he seemed really laid back but knowledgeable and his photos, videos and albums are amazing. We ended up choosing his top package and again definitely the right choice as the extras you get make it amazing value compared to other photographers of that quality. We also really enjoyed our engagement shoot, Phil got us to laugh and made us relax, and he took some lovely shots of the both of us with our crazy dogs. We were thinking of trying to save some money and not do the engagement shoot but really glad we did as obviously you get lovely photos but it also gets you used to being in front of the camera. Anyway, definitely book Philtographie, he's a lovely guy and an amazing photographer, thanks Phil! More...

Phil took pictures at my 40th birthday in June 2019, we had an amazing venue, some great entertainment and I’m so glad we had Phil to ensure we have a record of these precious memories, Phil went over and above what was asked of him, he blended in with my guests and stayed well over the time he had allowed to take the pictures ( if you ask him I’m sure he will say he had a great time singing along to the famous Blobbie Williams)I would highly recommend Phil not only was he great on the day but he was very prompt in delivering the final pictures! When you get a great service price doesn’t come into it but Phil was very reasonable. Thanks again Phil. More...

Thanks Jim, it was a really great day wasn't it. I love shooting at Matara as there are so many places to go and Sarah looked so stunning it was impossible to take a bad photo really! I look forward to that new born shoot you promised :-)

My wife and I saw Phil's (Philtographie) work on FB and instantly knew he was who wanted. We loved his friendly, candid approach and his photos speaks for itself. We have been to weddings where the photographer wants to be the centre of attention but Phil is thankfully not like this at all.
He was brilliant with our children too who normally don't like getting there photos takes but he won them over.
We really can't recommend Philtographie enough, Phil takes amazing photos.

I can not speak highly enough of Phil. He worked so hard all day and he even sent us some 'sneak peak' photos that same evening so we could post on FB really quickly. The rest of the photos came about 2 weeks later and OMG they were so amazing. We were so happy that we chose Phil, he was super friendly, really laid back and easy to get along with. We had a couple of issues leading up to the wedding and Phil was so accommodating and helpful. Honestly book him and you won't be disappointed. More...

Hi Jess, thank you so much for your kind words. It was an absolute pleasure to shoot yours and Steve's wedding and I knew we would warm Kaley up to the camera. :-)

We booked Phil for our wedding at The Kingscote Barn last year, we got our photos really quickly and they were amazing, we were so so happy. We got way more photos than we were expecting and he captured every big of our day.
It was such a great day and I really loved my preparation photos of me and my girls getting ready. Watching the video back of us saying out vows is really magical.

Hi Tracy, great to hear from you. Thank you so much for your review. The Kingscote Barn is such a gorgeous wedding venue and we were so lucky with the weather. I hope Gary's head wasn't too sore the next day ;-)

Phil was brilliant!! Such amazing photos, he was really easy going and made us totally relaxed as we aren't great in front of the camera normally.
He got some great photos of our guests and the album he gave us is so amazing.
Also the videos are really great too as we weren't going to get a videographer because we couldn't afford it but then Phil includes this in his package.
I can't recommend him enough.

Phil was recommended to me by a friend for our wedding photos and we're SO glad we went with him. He's kind, friendly and hardworking and made us feel relaxed and at ease having our photos taken (and we are not naturals in front of the camera) All our guests loved him too and the quality of the photos and videos are superb! Our package included an engagement shoot (including our kids), all day at our wedding, video footage of key moments (ceremony, first dance and speeches) and a beautiful photo book. It was excellent value for money and I will be recommending Phil to everyone I know who has a special event coming up. More...

Even though Emily was a little grizzly throughout, Phil was great with her. We felt completely at ease and we received some beautiful photos. We like them so much that we're delighted that Phil will be capturing Emily's christening in a few weeks time :-)
Thank you so much Phil! Love Craig, Sarah and baby Emily

We would like to thank Phil for doing our wedding photos. He went the extra mile to help with photographing the bridesmaid dresses to help me decide on colours. Our engagement shoot photos were wonderful and combined a good approach of following us on a nice walk and then making a few great suggestions for particular photos. On the day Phil blended into the background and was very flexible as a few key plans changed. We love the photos we have seen so far and are excited to see the rest of them! More...

Q&As

I have always loved photography even from an early age, being able to capture a moment so that it can be remembered and shared forever. Later as i honed my skill i found new and innovative ways to capture those moments so they give you something different to everyone else.

What you have the skill, drive and talent why work for someone else?

First and foremost its the photography. I take huge pride in my work so that every customer walks away over the moon with the end result. But then you get a lot of extras choosing Philtographie which is above and beyond, where possible you get your photos back within 2 weeks, you get a complementary basic videography included, weather/location permitting we can look at a use of a drone for 1 or 2 shots from the air totally free of charge and finally whilst Philtographie will retain all copyrights to the images unlike many pros i do not look to make more money after the event by selling expensive prints so you are free to share and print to your hearts content.
