Nick did such a good job of capturing all the special moments of our big day. We are so happy with all our beautiful photos, and have no idea how we are going to choose our favourites to go in our album! A lot of our guests have commented on how good Nick was at taking photos without them even knowing- this natural and relaxed style of photography was exactly what we wanted to reflect us and our day perfectly. Could not recommend Nick enough to everyone and anyone looking for a wedding photographer. More...

Amazing from start to finish. Slotted in with the day perfectly. Nick is very easy to get on with as well. We loved all of our photos from our big day and would strongly recommend to anyone.

Straightaway we knew we wanted Nick to photograph our wedding day. He took the time to get to know us as a couple before our wedding day. He made us feel so comfortable and before the ceremony became as good as a friend stood by my side. We are so pleased with our photos, they are so stunningly natural and the few formal photos we wanted were done in a very laid back and stress-free way! It’s been so lovely looking back at our special day and all the moments captured by Nick, some of which we didn’t even realised had happened. We would not hesitate to recommend him. Thankyou Nick we cannot thank you enough for giving us these moments to cherish forever. More...

Nick was a complete joy to have around on our wedding day. He completely blended in to the crowd. We are really pleased with the photos, we wanted really natural photographs and we loved Nick's style and storytelling. It's been so much fun reminiscing about the day and looking back through the photographs. There were some moments I had forgotten, or hadn't even realised had happened, especially the ones taken off my nieces and nephews playing football! Would highly recommend Nick :) as well as all of this, he was just lovely to have around on the day! More...

Nick did the photography for our wedding in August 2023 and was amazing from start to finish! He really took the time to get to know us as a couple and understand what we wanted from the photos. Nick fitted in seamlessly on the day, striking the perfect balance between taking amazing photos and also allowing us to enjoy our day! The photos are so natural and captured the joy of our day in a way we could never even imagine! We would absolutely recommend Nick and are delighted with every single one of our photos! More...

Came to us recommended by another photographer, Nick’s website made us think his candid style photography was exactly what we were after as we didn’t want endless formal wedding photos. We had a Zoom call beforehand and were confident that our special day was going to be beautifully captured. Nick was super friendly, unobtrusive on the day and was speedy to send a few pics to whet our appetites and then shared a huge number of incredible photos. Would thoroughly recommend for weddings! Thank you Nick! 📷 More...

We were so happy we found Nick, he really is a fantastic photographer. He delivered exactly what he promised and what we were hoping for, and a ton more. We had a few posed photographs and the rest are an amazing collection of moments beautifully captured. We didn't want to spend ages posing for formal pictures and that is not Nick's style, so he was a great choice for us. He really is a ninja photographer, dashing around getting every moment, but letting the action all happen naturally, you wouldn't even know he was there. The results are simply stunning and we feel totally captured the essence of our day, peoples characters and reactions and lots of special moments. We would not hesitate to recommend him. More...

Nick did a wonderful job of photographing our wedding. He captured the day perfectly and we are delighted with the beautiful photographs. I don't usually like having my photo taken but Nick blended in well and captured some great shots without me even realising. We are so glad we chose Nick for our photographer as we now have pictures to treasure forever and remind us of our perfect day. The only problem is finding places in our house to display them all!

Nick photographed our wedding last year, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. He made us feel so comfortable, and it was more like having a friend photograph the wedding than a professional - although obviously with the professional results! The whole process was perfect, from planning to the big day and beyond. Everything felt so easy, and Nick gave us great advice whilst still making us feel so listened to. One of the main reasons we picked him were his brilliant candid photos and we were so happy with everything Nick delivered for our wedding day, from the candid shots he got by seamlessly integrating into the wedding party, to the necessary posed photos for the family album. A huge huge thanks to him for everything! More...

Nick did a fantastic job of capturing the joy of our wedding day, so many happy faces and so much laughter. Nick was unobtrusive and got some great candid photos, he has a good eye for a special moment. He also got some beautiful ones of us when he snuck us away from the guests for a few minutes, and they didn't even notice our absence! Thanks Nick, we have some wonderful images as memories of our very special and happy day. More...

Highly recommend Nick, not only are his pictures absolutely beautiful but he is very friendly and makes you feel very relaxed and comfortable. Our package included an engagement shoot and my partner and i tend to feel a bit awkward in front of the camera but Nick is the master of the candid shot and blends perfectly into the background so it just felt like a lovely walk out. The wedding was no different, you can just enjoy your special day and feel confident knowing that the most womderful moments are being captured. No query was too much hassel and communication was very efficient. He really was a joy to have at our wedding and all of our guests have enjoyed looking through the photos too. More...

From the very start, Nick was very friendly and clear in his communication with us leading to our wedding. Nick was also very helpful in answering any of our queries and the booking process was very simple. In the months leading to the wedding we had a virtual meeting with Nick to run through any requirements for the day and completed a very detailed questionnaire so we were very confident that Nick would capture the moments that we wanted. On the day, Nick went above and beyond our expectations and he arranged group shots quickly and efficiently and blended in amongst the crowds to capture moments we may have missed! So many guests commented on how good Nick was at ending in and taking pictures without them knowing! We received our photos within a few weeks of the wedding and were blown away with how they have turned out. Nick captured both the group shots we asked for as well as many beautiful moments throughout the day. The pictures are amazing and we can’t thank Nick enough! We would definitely recommend Nick to future couples who aren’t so keen on stages shots and who want to capture parts of the day they would have otherwise missed! More...

What can I say about Nick? From the second I met him I was settled on booking him as my photographer for my wedding. Not only is he extremely skilled at what he does, he is one of the loveliest most friendly and chilled out guys I’ve ever met! Nick captures moments that you didn’t even realise had happened, and looking at the photographs brings back every single emotion and memory of the day itself. The fact that his work makes this happen puts the emphasis on how truly fantastic he is. From start to finish Nick was on hand to answer any questions or queries and he was so helpful at all times. The relaxed and natural style of Nick’s photography really reflected ourselves as a couple and captured our day in the most perfect way imaginable. Thanks to Nick we have some truly beautiful photographs and memories that we can treasure forever. THANK YOU! J & J More...

We can't believe how lucky we are to have found Nick Brightman! From the moment we booked, Nick has been incredible from start to finish. We had so much fun on our pre-wedding photo shoot and Nick was nothing short of perfect on our wedding day. He added so many beautiful moments to our day and caught so many perfect snapshots. His style of photography was perfect for us as he was able to capture all the natural, candid moments of our wedding. We couldn't believe some of the photos he was able to take, without people even knowing he was there! Our wedding photos have been sent on the most beautiful carved usb stick - adding to how wonderful the whole experience has been. We would highly recommend Nick to anyone without hesitation. More...

When it came to picking a wedding photographer Nick was our first choice. I’d followed his work on Instagram for a while and loved the natural reportage style that just really captures the moments that you don’t always see. We loved working with Nick in the run up and on the day, he made it so easy and one less thing to be thinking about. Nick is there everywhere but you don’t even realise it which was fabulous. Made us feel relaxed and wow the results are just amazing!! So many brilliant photos we’ve now got the impossible job of choosing a few to print and frame!! Thanks so much Nick. Book him! More...

What can we say but just wow!?! Nick was one of the first photographers we spoke to after getting engaged, and after seeing his work we just knew we didn’t need to speak to anyone else. Nick was great in the lead up the wedding, date changes (many emails from us) and of course the day itself. Everything went so well, he really put us at ease and manged to take some super candid shots – and the few formal photos we wanted were done in a very laid back and stress-free way! Getting the photos back was better than either of us imagined - he really captured the day, and the main feeling we both felt which was absolute joy! For two people who hate having our photos taken we absolutely adore our couple shots, it was just like taking a walk! The natural guest shots are just brilliant - and of course the photos of my 97-year-old Granddad dancing, brought all the emotions back :) Asking Nick to document our wedding, was one of the best decisions we made - you will 100% not regret booking Nick for your wedding!!

Nick has been the appointed photographer for three weddings in our family, including my own. He is 100% reliable and produces fantastic quality photographs. Nick is able to take photographs and yet remain almost invisible so you don’t notice he’s snapping away!! Although he wasn’t able to hide that easily, we made sure he was included in our photos too as we seem to have adopted him as the family photographer. Nick is very polite, professional and happy to go along with what you have organised for your day. He is clearly experienced as I didn’t have much of a clue of the order of the day or photos and when the group shots would be done etc but Nick was advising us all the way through. Luckily we were able to keep Nick as our photographer despite postponing with COVID. I have nothing but praise for Nick Brightman and I hope to be able direct more business his way with anyone I can. Thank you again Nick, top photographer!! More...

We were absolutely thrilled with Nick's artistry on our wedding day at Crumplebury, Worcestershire! He captured the most beautiful images while most people were completely unaware they were being photographed. It was so emotional looking through and impossible to choose even our top 20 favourites, but there was one Nick captured of my mum and dad looking at each other proudly after dad 'gave me away', which made me cry (happy tears) - what a beautiful moment that we completely missed at the time. We really recommend Nick and felt from start to finish like we were in very safe hands. All our guests commented on what a lovely guy he was and very skilled and fast at getting the group pictures.

Q&As

That every wedding is different and I get the best seat it the house!!

I'd always wanted to work for myself and have been a keen for photographer for years. Having taken some photos at a friends wedding as a guest I was asked by them if they could use some of my shots in their album (they'd had a professional photographer as well) That gave me the confidence to pursue photography as a career

With wedding photography we all have own style and mine is take very natural, candid shots.

If what you want is a relaxed day where you're not constantly being told where to stand and how to pose them I'm your man! I'll capture all the emotion of your wedding day but without taking over it
