I hired Nigel for my baby’s baptism at very short notice. He was very professional and communicated well beforehand. On the day he was very open and friendly to our guests, and took lots of lovely photos for us. We will definitely be using him again for our next event! More...

We couldn’t be more thrilled with our wedding photos and video - Nigel, you were absolutely incredible! From start to finish, it was a genuinely amazing experience having you as our photographer. You didn’t just take stunning photos - you truly saw and understood the culture, and that made all the difference. You managed the crowd so naturally, blending in with the day while also keeping things moving seamlessly. You made us feel comfortable, and it shows in every frame. Thank you for capturing not just the moments, but the emotion and meaning behind them. We’re so grateful to have had you as part of our big day. More...

Nigel was an absolutely brilliant wedding photographer. He took time before the day to understand what our wedding would be like and what we wanted from the photos, which was super helpful, and meant the images we got were absolutely what we were hoping for. He was great fun on the day too! A lovely guy to have around, taking great candid shots as well as the staged ones we wanted. He interacted with all the guests really nicely and put everyone at ease. He also managed to get the nicest photos I’ve ever seen of my Mum, who hates having her photo taken! Would highly recommend him, absolutely fantastic. More...

Nigel photographed our engagement and we couldn’t be happier. He’s a consummate gentleman and phenomenal photographer who not only captures the magical moment brilliantly, he also puts you at ease (might have been a tad nervous beforehand) and is great craic. His years of experience are demonstrated well with his end product, and he is incredibly communicative (he even helped change some of my plans for the better!). Thanks a mil Nigel for making our special day that bit more amazing. Couldn’t recommend his services enough. I know who will be top of our list when we look for a photographer for our wedding.

Nigel was the photographer and videographer for our wedding. He not only captured every amazing moment of our day, but enhanced them with his friendly and humourous personality. Nigel befriended everyone there, made the images fun to take, and got everyone laughing as the photos were taken so everything looks natural. And when he left he personally said goodbye to every guest present. Somehow Nigel was able to take photos from every different angle without anyone noticing he was there. Looking through the photos afterwards it seems like Nigel has the ability to teleport! At first we were only going to go with the photos, but Nigel managed to convince us to have a 3 minute video as well and wow, we are so glad that we did! The video Nigel produces is beautiful and truly captures every moment of the day. Nigel truly made the day special and we would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer or videographer. More...

We booked Nigel for our wedding in August and could not be happier with the photos and videos produced. A few things to highlight in particular about our experience: - He is a great wedding guest - we have spoken to many friends and family since who have fond recollections of chatting to Nigel on the day. He is very warm, accommodating and has great energy, both in preceding phone call and on the day. - He is very hardworking - we asked for documentary style photos of our day with some portraits after the service. We were not expecting the sheer volume of images we received! We had around 100 guests and feel like we have at least one great photo of every one of them. He was like a ninja and was everywhere - would love to see his Strava for the day! - The quality of his work - fantastic! So pleased to have such beautiful photos to remember our day. Thank you so much Nigel! More...

Wow! What can I say about Nigel, from his first contact with us to saying goodbye at the end of our wedding he was just incredible. There was nothing too big or too small that Nigel could do for us, he was professional, punctual, friendly, and made two very camera shy people thoroughly enjoy having their photos taken! We have absolutely no doubt that our wedding would not have been the same without his creativity, enthusiasm and can-do attitude and we can’t wait to see our final photos! We would encourage anyone thinking of booking with Nigel to go for it- you absolutely will not regret it! More...

Wow what a lovely man. Nigel videographed our wedding on 27th July 2024. He was very pleasant, friendly, professional and wow what a film we recieved. Nigel was amazing from start to finish capturing those all important moments. The communication between Nigel, myself and our photographer was just spot on and had no issues. I would highly recommend Nigel if your considering having a videographer as you won't be disappointed. Thank you once again Nigel it was a pleasure. More...

Nigel was great to work with while we were planning the wedding, always very responsive and making good suggestions. On the day he did exactly what we agreed, capturing the day for us and taking lovely portraits of the wedding party and guests. He was friendly and made everyone feel at ease. I really feel we have pictures of the day rather than a lot of posed photos. The happiness we felt is beautifully caught in the photos. More...

We hired Nigel for our school prom event and the experience with Nigel went beyond photography. Nigel’s incredible work ethic and skill really enhanced the atmosphere.
He was truly more than a photographer, he came to the event with such a positive and lively attitude and also kept in touch with us prior to the event which helped with organisation and helped to translate the lively atmosphere of our event into photography. His work truly speaks for the incredible photographer he is.
Thank you very much Nigel for the wonderful photos and videos as well as your incredible attitude.

Nigel is one of the nicest men I have ever met; apart from my husband of course. My guests assumed he was a friend, who I had known for years & were surprised to hear I met him for the first time on my wedding day. He called me about a week before my wedding to talk through my needs, concerns (posed photos make me feel uncomfortable) & expectations & arrived early on the day to meet James & I as we arrived at the Henley Registry Office. He was so incredibly accommodating & fun on the day & captured my day perfectly. And that’s coming from someone who is a perfectionist & a stickler for standards. The photos, ceremony film, & 2-minute highlight film are simply wonderful & still make me cry every time I look at them. I can’t thank Nigel enough for his kindness & the products he supplied, which have given me memories to cherish forever. I highly recommend Nigel for all your photography needs. He will not disappoint. More...

We've been working with Nigel for almost a year now and he has provided us with fantastic shoots every time! We've done a range of projects such as product photoshoots, to office shots and headshots, as well as a photoshoot in PennyHill Park for our bathrobes.
From the planning, to the execution and the results, Nigel does an amazing job. He's always been flexible and willing to make last minute adjustments if necessary.
So great to finally work with a photographer with creative direction! Nigel is also a great laugh and keeps you entertained throughout the shoots.
Couldn't recommend Nigel's work enough - great to know we have a photographer that we can consistently return to and feel sure that we will get a great result every time.

I worked with Nigel to produce personal shots for professional and dating purposes. I can say that the work has been life-changing.
His service was far above what I was expecting, including taking creative control of the process with confidence, ultimately producing material perfect for my intended use-case.
Nigel is more than a guy with a camera, he steps into a creative director role and works with the environment, and he reads the client deeply to inform the effort towards specific goals.
Extremely good service, would recommend highly.

Very unhappy. Little interest taken and photos were rushed. No pictures of the bride on her own and very random ad hoc photography. Very disappointed
Reply from NIGEL CHAPMAN PHOTOGRAPHY
Hi Priti I am so sorry that you are disappointed. To the best of my ability I tried to capture your wedding after party within the short photography coverage booked. I believe a miscommunication resulted in certain images not being captured. Best Regards Nigel

Where do I start. This was my first time using Bark so of course I was very nervous but from the first time I spoke to Nigel I just knew that he was the one we would work with. He came across confident and very knowledgeable about his work. He asked questions to get to know me and my partner and what type of wedding we were going to have then went on to suggest a few ideas. He was also opened to our idea and opinions/concerns. The day went so smoothly and all my guest commented on his professionalism and how funny and interactive he was which made everyone feel at ease. The shoots were all phenomenal and I know for sure that we will stay in contact and defo have Nigel take other beautiful shots for all our occasions. If you are thinking of hiring Nigel as your photographer please just do it. You won’t regret it. Thank you Nigel for being a big part of our wedding More...

Both photos and video really captured the magic of our Wedding. Comunication was spot on, I had a few phoncalls from Nigel months before the wedding and also the week of. He took on everything that we wanted and more! After the Wedding he was true to his word with time limits for our photos and video. He organised our guests confidently which really helped things to run smoothly. He literally guided us through the whole day! I cannot recommend Nigel highly enough, we are so grateful! More...

Nigel is an outstanding photographer. He took videos and pictures parallel for my wedding registey, which i am very very happy about. There are not many who do both at the same time and he did it just so well. He guided people on the day on how to pose and he took professional pictures. I have to highlight he created a 2 min video from the registry, it was just so amazing, my family and friends abroad loved it soo much. I can only highly highly recommend him. I am so happy that i found him online and i am so happy to keep the memories of the registry thanks to him. Thank you so much again Nigel . More...
