Terry really knows his stuff and from the first time we met him he put us at ease, not only with his personality but also his obvious knowledge of weddings, how they run and what to expect from his photography. Nothing was too much trouble. The photographs were lovely, he had listened to our requirements and delivered exactly what we had asked for. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Terry for wedding photography. We are very pleased we found him! More...

Terry has been excellent from the moment we hired him! I had some reservations about the outside area of our venue and Terry happily did a pre shoot with us to scout out any locations near the venue for us to get photos! We were very happy with this shoot and it helped make us more comfortable for the actual day. On the day itself, Terry instantly clicked with the bridal party, making sure to get photos of me getting ready and chatting with us at the same time and sharing fun facts about wedding history! Terry was very patient even when our families were taking longer than expected or insisting on more photos that scheduled, he kept going and listened to what we wanted. Overall, I would 100% recommend Terry and we are so happy with the photos we got! More...

Terry was an excellent photographer at our wedding! He got a lot of fantastic shots across the day, and many guests mentioned how nice he was. We were really grateful that Terry was always available and very proactive in terms of communication, it was really nice to have someone so attentive and helpful throughout the preparation and the day itself.
As for the photos themselves, the turnaround was very quick and we are so happy with the results!

Thank you very much for your kind review Clare. Everybody at your wedding was great to me and I really enjoyed your big day on the beach! . It was a pleasure to capture such a fab day.

We booked Terry for our wedding on 14/09/19. He was fantastic. He was prompt, funny and didn't moan about the fact he was having to follow us around most of the day, in the heat. He took photos from me in the car arriving at the Church, right up to the first dance -as requested. He's very organised and sticks to his word. Our photos were ready exactly a month after we were married and we are thrilled with them. Thanks so much. Nina and Josh Watt More...

Hired Terry for my August Wedding.
He was very friendly and helpful during the planning as well as on the day.
He always responded to my many questions quickly, put the pictures up and sorted the album very quickly and was affordable.
He took loads of beautiful pictures, both staged and not staged, so many beautiful pictures that it took ages to select the pictures for the album (even let us go over slightly). The album is gorgeous!

Only criticism is that my now husband would have liked more pictures of him and his best man before the wedding, other than that would definitely recommend!

We hired Terry to cover our wedding. He was the best choice and offered everything we wanted, we really wanted a Album to look back on in our old age and not a lot of photographers offer this service or if they do the cost is extortionate. Terry even had a choice of finishes and internal linings for the album so it was bespoke and a great price. Terry is a pure professional, we didn't even notice him as he blends in the background making for some really natural shots. We would definitely reccomend him for any event you want to capture the precious moments of. More...

We didn’t really have firm plans on locations and types of photos but Terry was great about it, really easy to talk to and discus any ideas we did have.
Met him on the day, really funny and relaxed, getting a laugh and smile out of everyone, yet still professional. Super flexible, happy to take what ever photos we or our guests wanted.
Love the results! All photos really easy to access and share with friends and family. Would highly recommend!

Event & Party Photography

Terry took the photos of an important family occasion for us: the 100th birthday party of my father, a lunch with 77 guests, including 7 children. He was charming to deal with during our preparatory meeting, his terms were very reasonable, and the quality of the photos he took were outstanding. During the event, his modus operandi was to stay in the background, to be 'the fly on the wall', rather than to set up individual shots in a proactive way. I wasn't sure this would work, being used to photographers who impose their personality on proceedings. But his results proved me wrong and we are extremely satisfied with his comprehensive and memorable record of a marvellous, family occasion. More...

From the moment we began working with Terry we knew we had made the right decision. His level of professionalism in helping us, and letting us know what was possible made all the difference. He kept in contact with us all the way up to the day and was taking pictures of us before we'd even got out of the car! His picture taking was subtle and yet the pictures he took brought us back to the day as if it was just moments ago. The freshness and the style of his picture taking has to be seen to be believed! He captures more in his photos than I thought possible and his skill shows through time and time again. His ability to take shots of people with such a casual effortlessness and yet show such poise and character in the pictures. Absolutely timeless! Absolutely fabulous! Absolutely Terry Lucas. More...

I can't fault Terry! I hired him through Bidvine as a 'surprise' photographer for an intimate ceremony. Communication before, during and after the day was excellent. .On the day, Terry arrived early and was professional throughout but more importantly a really friendly guy and funny. too! The link to the online photography album was sent through within a couple of days. I think we asked for two photos out of the bunch to be cropped without any problems. A couple of days later the happy couple received a key shaped USB sent in a lovely engraved box which they were very happy with. Thanks Terry :) It was lovely to meet you! More...

In short.... Awesome! We both felt comfortable with Terry straight away, and knew we wanted him to be our photographer. As we were having a slightly unusual wedding, we wanted to get it right, and we did. The idea of two middle-aged lesbians getting married in the grounds of a victorian crematorium, having our hands tied together, and jumping a broom, didn't phase him one bit.
Terry's communication was great, and we had no worries about our wedding photography.
The day was perfect, and Terry was there to record it all. I think he actually enjoyed it to, as it was a little different to his usual function.
Away we went on our honeymoon, watching for a message to say or first look was available to view, and we weren't disappointed. Or photos are wonderful, and we can almost relive or perfect day whenever we look at them. When our memory stick arrived in the post, we had another lovely surprise.... But I'll let you lucky people who hire Terry, discover that one for yourself. ❤️

Terry was outstanding from the very begining. He is very experienced and was able to give us advice even regarding some aspects of our wedding which really helped us.

He was quick to adapt to the flow and changes during the day and patient.Terry knows what takes a good photograph and was able to direct everyone but with a friendly approach.The photos were incredible, and to top it off Terry's prices were also great value for the service he provides.

Terry responded super quick to my advert wanting someone to photograph our house which was about to go on the market. He managed to fit me in really quickly and via an initial phone call was keen to understand want we wanted to capture the most during the shoot. He arrived on time was really enthusiastic and took the time to capture every aspect of the property. He delivered the final photos that same afternoon and I was able to get them over to the estate agent on the same day.
Would absolutely recommend him. Thank you very much Terry for giving us photos not only to help sell the house but also ones to help us remember it. We will miss this place!

He is a bit of a perfectionist, but is still professional and blends in so you don’t notice the camera. We have some really great shots, and I don’t even know when he took them.

Q&As

I first got behind a camera over 30 years ago and I still remember the days of developing my film in the darkroom! For years photography was, and still is, my passion and I'm fortunate enough to have turned that passion into my job. For me, its the best job in the world! I feel extremely lucky to have a career which allows me to pursue my love of photography, and use it to capture one of the happiest days two people can share!

I wanted to turn my passion for photography into my job. I sometimes still can't believe how lucky I am!

We'll get on great if:

You want photos of how the day felt (including the quirky and not so perfect)
You want to remember feelings (not just 'stuff')
You want to celebrate your love (It's not just about the event - It's the love. Cheesy maybe, but true)
You're into my documentary approach (other than family/group photo time you will hardly notice me)
You want to be directed but not 'posed' (No 'arty' shots - just genuine interaction and moments)
