Wedding, Events, Press Photography.
I have photographed over 650 events, weddings and press calls in and around London over the last 15 years as a professional photographer. I work in a relaxed and informal way documenting the moment as it happens and am also happy to do posed individual and group photos.

Andrew photographed our charity ball and the photos captured the evening perfectly!! He was great to work with and made all the guests feel very comfortable. Would highly recommend!

Andrew was not only professional in his approach to work, but was also friendly, kind and easy to talk to. The photographs we received were not only phenomenal, they captured the evening's festivities perfectly;
and we received our pictures only two days after the event.
Andrew stayed on longer than was expected to take more photographs for us, and did not run like a taxi meter. A true professional, and gentleman. We will be keeping your name on the books for next time!
Five stars!!

Andrew was totally top drawer on our wedding day. Very friendly and approachable, he totally understood our brief, even if slightly off the norm, and totally embraced it.
During the ceremony at Chelsea Town Hall, he melted into the background, but still captured the formal moments. Then following he gladly walked the local streets capturing our family moments perfectly in our fun style.
We couldn’t have asked for more or picked a better person for the job.
Thank you Andrew.

We couldn’t have been any happier with the photos that Andrew took of our wedding. We completely forgot he was there most of the time as he quietly moved amongst everyone taking the natural photos we had asked for.
When it came to a few posed photos he was professional and efficient.
By the end of the day it felt like he was part of the family!
Would highly recommend.

Andrews communication was prompt when I initially messaged and he continued to keep me posted on the status of the prints etc. He was very professional and patient. He came prepared with a variety of cameras and equipment and having reviewed his previous work I could see he had a lot of experience of portrait shots. I was very pleased with the final product.

Andrew did our wedding photographs on Saturday. He was really great before the event, popped over to meet us the week before which was nice! The actual day was the hottest of the year with us outside at capel manor in 34 degree sunshine! He managed to get loads of great pictures and made the group shots as quick as possible! Andrew even gave us a lift to the reception!! The photos were emailed to me the next day and were truly stunning so thank you! More...

Andrew was absolutely fantastic. He took an evening out to come and meet us before our special day so we could get to know him and also gave us ideas for the day and how we get the most out of our time with him. Andrew was warm and friendly and all our guests commented how fab he was. We organised the groups of photos and sent this to Andrew before the wedding to make sure we got all the family and friend shots we wanted. He is was very professional and knew exactly what he was doing and made it fun. We are both super happy with Andrews work and can’t wait to use him again! More...

To save myself and friends the burden of having to take photos of my recent 50th birthday party at The Karaoke Klub and Fanhams Hall. I decided to book a professional photographer. Having hired Andrew for other events, including a Corporate Summer Ball for around 200 people at The Dorchester, I have been impressed with his work and have subsequently recommend him to friends, whom too have also been impressed with his work and his lovely friendly personality.Andrew didn't disappoint this time either. He managed to capture the true atmosphere of the night through the lense of his camera!Thanks again Andrew for providing me with such good memories of a fun night, that alcohol seemed to have erased parts of!

What do you love most about your job?
I am very lucky to be part of a very special day, to see and hear all the love, laughter and emotions of the day. I have attended some beautiful venues and have been privileged to be part of this. At a wedding I can be really creative and normally have great autonomy when shooting and love this aspect of wedding photography. Weddings enable me to meet a huge variety of different people from all sorts of background. No two weddings are ever the same, which means that work is always interesting and challenging. I am very fortunate to do a job that I enjoy and have passion for.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have always been interested in photography since I was a child, I run a creative business that involved photography so doing wedding photography was a natural progression.
Why should our clients choose you?
I offer a professional, fair and competitive service and give good value for money. I am creative and believe I have the people skills needed with patience and a calm approach. I can get the best out of everyone in what sometimes is a little hectic and stressful situation.
