Jon photographed our reception in North Somerset (the ceremony was overseas, as we live in Australia). He was very easy to communicate with in the lead-up to the day, and was also a very charming and friendly presence at the reception. Several guests went out of their way to express that they were impressed by how well he fit in. This also meant that he got a lot of very natural looking shots, which is exactly what we were looking for - someone to capture the atmosphere and fun of the night, rather than a bunch staged shots. I'd definitely recommend Jon to photograph your next event! More...

Jon was the photographer at our wedding in July and he was amazing. He met us beforehand and visited the venue to recce possible footage. Jon spoke to our celebrant and videographer beforehand and worked naturally with both to ensure everything was perfect. He is efficient and professional, yet easy going and makes you feel totally at ease - in fact we often forgot he was there he was so discreet but he and Cerrie captured everything. We have received our fantastic photos and cannot stop looking at them, they are wonderful. He also worked well with the children at the wedding and gave them a camera to use and little jobs to do, which they loved. Our guests have not stopped saying how relaxed, friendly but efficient he was on the day. THANK YOU so much Jon and also Cerrie for all your hard work and helping to make our day so fantastic and unforgettable. I highly recommend hiring Jon, Solid Imagery, for your wedding, birthday, corporate do, school pics or other event! More...

Jon photographed my wedding yesterday, All guests have had access to everything the next morning, or should I say we could view a few when we went to bed at 1am!
Amazing!
I could not be more pleased with the photos and to also how relaxed he made myself and my husband feel. I’m incredibly photo shy!
I feel we were incredibly lucky to find him, as it would not of been the same wedding without him!
We and our families will be forever in awe at the amazing photos and memories we will cherish all thanks to Jon. If you are looking for a photographer, Jon creates the photos that you appreciate so much those family photos and all the usual but the moments. Catching the running toddler and allowing them to be free... catching a moment of love and appreciation - we are full of love looking back.
Forever thanking you Jon,
Best wishes for your future

I can honestly say what a pleasure it was to have Jon from solid imagery take photographs for my recent wedding In Bournemouth. He has a very professional manner & friendly personality and knows ( with a wealth of experience) exactly what he's doing to get the shots that will capture those special memories on film to last a lifetime. His pricing is also very competitive with his photographic experience so I personally wouldn't hesitate to recommend solid imagery to anyone needing a professional photographer for any special event .

After meeting Jon when he photographed my sisters wedding there was really no doubt that we would ask him to capture our wedding day. In the run up to the wedding Jon was available to answers questions and this helped immensely with planning. On our wedding day Jon was great, he offered guidance and direction whilst accommodating all of our guests. Our pictures were available by the next morning for us to view and were nothing short of amazing. Jon had captured us all perfectly from our toddler to our 95 year old Nanna! We have so many great photos to remember our wedding day. If you are looking for a wedding photographer Jon really is the only man for the job! More...

Our wedding day was very simple yet was filled with fun and excitement with the help of Jon. He is so easy, approachable and very professional.
He knows how to handle his clients and people around. At first I was worried about hiring him because our wedding is just very simple and I did not know him or even met him to talk about the photography. He really worked hard to capture every single moment of our special day. All the photos are superb. He really made our day complete and blissful. We did not paid very much as he understand us and he negotiate to us to make our day perfect. He did not matter of how much he is getting.He only cared to give people a perfect moment to remember and cherish forever. He love doing his work and making his clients happy and that is Jon Ball.

Jon was absolutely brilliant, he listened to what we wanted and delivered. We want a lot of documentary photography with only a few posed photos, Jon mingled into the background and got some fantastic pics. We love the timeline which he offered as part of the package everyone compliments it when they visit. I would high recommend Jon / Solid Imagery! More...
Ryan Lester
Jon's photos are incredible and he always seems to capture special moments in such a creative way which helps bring the photos to life when you look back at them. He has photographed many of our musical concerts played outdoors which is not a great combination for a photographer as lighting is problematic and getting the right pose from someone playing a brass instrument, for example, can be tricky! Jon is the only photographer I know who can produce excellent results for us without making them look staged. He has a great eye for design and his illustrations are exceptional. To top it all of he is a really decent guy who is a real people person and passionate about what he does. More...

Jon has photographed a variety of school photographs for me from leavers yearbook & school prom photos to major productions, dance, drama and music showcases, all of which have been superb. He is very polite, friendly, and professional in his work as well as discrete when required for photographing the shows. His post production work is fantastic and he is always happy to help with anything he can eg resizing the photos for easy placement into the yearbook. With his many years of experience he has extensive photographic knowledge which he is happy to share if help is required. Solid Imagery also has an easy to use, password protected website from which parents can obtain prints if required. Jon has also photographed the weddings of some of my friends and family; the photographs were amazing and they were really happy with them. I would definitely recommend Jon for any occasion to be photographed. More...

I met Jon through his school photographs, which are excellent. So when we created technology start-up company ioLight, he was a natural choice.
Jon's images display our product beautifully but also put it in context. Most of the product shots on our website are Jon's. He is flexible and offers excellent value for money. Highly recommended.

We had the great pleasure of having Jon photograph our perfect day and jon played a big part in that day. From the first time we spoke to Jon we knew we had made the right decision as he was so professional in all he does. I honestly have to say I remember seeing jon once throughout the speech’s and breakfast which shows just how good he is at his job. Even before the evening was over jon had managed to upload many pictures of our day on various social media sites plus his own showing is dedication to the job. When we received the disc of all our pictures we were blown away with the quality of the pictures and kept saying things like “ when did he take that? I don’t remember seeing him then” Absolutely first class service from start to finish and would 100% recommend jon to anyone for any photographic event. More...
