We asked Pete to photograph our wedding and he did an amazing job.
His photography skills and experience meant that we are now lucky enough to have some fantastic photos to look back on in years to come of our special day.
As well as capturing some brilliant staged group and family photos, Pete was excellent at capturing the candid natural photos which is one of the specifics we asked him to focus on and they have turned out to be everyone’s favourites.
It was a quick turnaround from our wedding to receiving our photos. Once the photos were edited, they were delivered, and they were even better than what we had hoped for.
Throughout the day he was professional, made everyone feel at ease but more importantly he was also great fun, we all had a real laugh which made it all that little bit better.
Amazing photos, amazing guy!
Would highly recommend.
Thank you Pete.

Peter photographed our civil ceremony and did a brilliant job. He was professional and conscientious and made everyone very relaxed. He identified some great shots and also got some natural unposed pictures of the day as well, which ended up being some of our favourites. He edited and returned these to us quickly without any need to follow up. More...
What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Light, composition and having a good eye! Everyone has a different style and photography is completely subjective so it may not be to everyone's taste.
In a world full of photographers its difficult to stand out, so try not to focus on what everyone else is doing but what you want to do, and go from there.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is your budget? How many photographs would you like?
What location has been chosen?
What style of photo's are you looking for? Still, moving, etc.
Do you have a style/finished look you are after?
What time of day would you like to shoot? The light is different throughout.
What do you love most about your job?
Meeting new people, exploring new places and delivering photo's that make people smile. I'll never get over the feeling of showing someone a photo they love.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I worked in an office for 2 years and it didn't fit my personality at all. I was always interested in photography but finally decided i'd had enough and it was time to chase my passion full time. Since then I've travelled throughout the world, gained a diverse range of photography experiencing working with a range of clients, and developed my own unique style. It's my passion and I wouldn't change that for anything.
Why should our clients choose you?
First and foremost I am very sociable and approachable. I believe I can put people at ease which allows for more natural photo's and a more authentic feel. Secondly, I have a range of experience shooting different genre's of photography and I am more than confident I can exceed your brief and produce some unique photo's that stand out. This is my passion and nothing makes me happier than when I have my camera with me creating some special photographs. I am also very professional, punctual and can offer to edit and turn around the photographs on the same day so there's no delay.
