Phil Smith Photography

We just wanted to say a big thank you for capturing so many beautiful and wonderful photos of our wedding day. You made us both feel at ease (even Lee who is not a fan of having his photo taken) and you worked around the planning of the day so well. The final album is fab and will be cherished forever along with some amazing memories. So thank you Phil and also to your assistant. More...

On the day, Phil was fantastic & everyone enjoyed having him around. Really easy going guy and he's so friggin cool. By the end of the day he was 'our Phil'. We can't recommend him enough! More...

Jamie and I would like to say a HUGE Thank you to Phil.
Not only is Phil a fantastic photographer, he is a genuinely nice guy.
For someone like me, who isn't the biggest fan of having my photo taken, Phil made me feel really
comfortable and I actually loved every minute of it.
When we received our photos we were blown away, they were a million times better then we had ever imagined. Phil captured every moment perfectly, we seriously could not be happier with our photos.
If you are looking for a photographer, Phil is 100% the best man for the job. I would highly recommended him, not only for his unbelievable photography skills, eye for detail and professionalism, but for his genuine friendly personality. Phil really gets to know you and your guests and this shines through in his work. More...

We first met Phil at a wedding fair and knew he was the photographer we just had to have. We are both nervous about being in front of the camera but Phil was great and put us straight at ease. His photos are breath taking and have so much style. Thank you so much Phil, we have the perfect photos to go with our perfect day. More...

I don't even know where to start with how amazing Phil is. He covered every moment of our wedding, we had so much fun and I really have never laughed so much lying on the grass with my legs in the air lol. I cannot recommend Phil highly enough. Dying to see our picture, I'm certain we are going to struggle to pick to put an album together. Thankyou so much Phil you're a star. Nicola ( and Paul) xxx More...

I met Phil at the wedding show at St. James Park and knew straight away that I wanted him as the photographer at our wedding! Apart from the amazing images that he showed me i was also encouraged by Phil's laid back attitude! I was put off other photographers by their pushy 'selling' spiel, Phil was different in that he allowed his images to speak for themselves, no spiel needed! On our wedding day Phil worked with us to make sure we got all the shots we wanted and used his own artistic license to capture some truly fabulous memories! We received our wedding album yesterday and are over the moon with the quality of the album and also really pleased with a little surprise that we weren't expecting! I would highly recommend Phil to anyone wanting a photographer who has some great ideas but is also open to doing some crazy stuff to get the best pictures! Kelly and Spencer Barron More...

Picking the right photographer is a hard task and thankfully we found the best! I tried to get involved in most of the wedding planning and one thing I was responsible for was to find was the photographer. I work as a designer with a lot of background and interest in photography. I went to numerous wedding fairs but couldn’t find the right one, there are so many out there but in my opinion so many bad ones. When I met Phil we immediately hit it off. His work speaks for itself but his friendly and fun personality was great. We booked Phil immediately and I think it was probably the easiest and best decision of the wedding.

The whole day was fantastic, the greatest of our lives and we are so pleased that Phil was there to capture it for us. It was a pleasure to get to know Phil and see a master at work. We had a pre-wedding shoot which looked amazing so had us more excited for our day. Capturing the day is so important so we can remember the best day ever. We have only had 1 teaser photo at the moment which was breath-taking and now we are excited to see the rest.

I can’t recommend Phil enough. If you want your perfect wedding day then you need to book this perfect photographer. More...

Received our wedding photographs from Phil and they are amazing. They captured the day perfectly and what a great guy he was to work with, he was so professional and at times you hardly even noticed he was there. He even came in handy when my bridesmaid and my Mam were unable to fasten the top of my dress... Phil to the rescue! Thanks for everything. Louise and Graeme Rowe More...

We looked at other photographers before meeting with Phil and it was clear his work and personality stood out from the rest. He is such a lovely guy and made us feel totally relaxed. Prior to the wedding we had a meeting and went through the timings of the day and discussed and agreed on the 'family shots' so it was easier in the day. During our photo shoot around the grounds we had a great laugh. Around sun down Phil took us off for a quick shoot to a great location which I can't wait to see those shots. Only wish we could've taken him to Mauritius with us to capture more amazing photos. Look forward to seeing our photos in a few weeks. More...

Phil is truly fantastic at his craft! We received our wedding photographs this week and Phil has delivered everything we could have asked for and more. We are absolutely over the moon! Of all the wedding advice we received and could pass on, the best piece was not to skimp on photography. Your wedding is just one day but the memories last a life time, so spend time & invest in someone who is going to capture the day perfectly. As soon as we met Phil we knew he was for us! Such a genuinely nice guy he made everyone feel relaxed and blended in seamlessly. So many of our guests commented on this. From the first meeting, planning and preparation right up until the end of our big day Phil put us at ease and delivered exactly what we wanted. We cannot recommend him enough! I must also say the presentation of the photos is impeccable (but we won't spoil the surprise!) Phil we cannot thank you enough! Mr & Mrs Webster xxx More...

Phil was a star from start to finish with our wedding. We knew we wanted him to be a major part of our day the minute we viewed his portfolio.

He has an artistic flair which is immediately apparent from our fantastic photos which captured our wedding day story perfectly.

He integrated himself seamlessly into our wedding party and we are proud to say he was like an invited friend.

The photographic story of the day was of the utmost importance to us, and Phil did not disappoint whatsoever.

The memories of the day will truly be treasured and his creativity translated onto the photographs is a timeless one.

Thank you Phil. The day really wouldn't have been perfect without you! We shall treasure your beautiful album forever.

We met Phil at a wedding fair and instantly knew we wanted him as our photographer. His work is so unique and speaks for its self. What we didn’t want was hours of posing for shots and waiting for group shots, taking up so much time on our big day. Phil was unobtrusive and got the best out of everyone, even the most reluctant guest. The run up to the wedding we were in constant contact with Phil who was better than our wedding planner s and sorted a timeline of the day making everything run so smoothly. We had meet Phil at Lumley Castle and decided on shots around the grounds. But to our dismay waking up on our wedding morning and seeing it was one of the wettest days of the year was heart breaking! But Phil turned this to our advantage and we have some amazing dancing in the rain shots that are so unique to us. Looking back at our beautiful album the rain was one of the best things to happen on the day! It was Phil who made it possible. He made us laugh and put us at ease creating some of the best memories of our wedding day (how many brides can say they danced in the rain on their wedding day!). We cannot thank Phil enough for our beautiful photographs; our most treasured shots are those perfect moments, when you think no one’s watching. Phil captured these beautifully.Thank you Phil we will cherish our photographs forever. More...

Phil took photographs throughout the day beginning with myself and my bridesmaids dressing in the morning up until our night time party. The day after our wedding we went down to the beach, pier and arcade for more photographs.<br /><br />When we decided to get married we wanted our photographs to be something totally different to a traditional album but we never dreamed it could turn out to be so<span id="moreReview103979" class="hide"> beautiful! We have a mix of everything from the more traditional family shots to the pictures we didn't even realise were being taken. Phil couldn't have made it easier, it was fun, easy going and enjoyable for everybody. It never once felt uncomfortable or formal and the album was exactly what we were looking for. We especially enjoyed the experience of having photos taken the day after. We had so much fun and it was fabulous to get dressed up again and go to unusual places, the arcade being a real highlight. Phil captured all the moments of the most special day of our lives and we feel like we could never thank him enough.</span> More...
