Nick photographed our daughter’s wedding at Thornbury Castle on a grey drizzly afternoon, but each and every photo was just perfect! He had everyone smiling in all the photos. Nick was relaxed and unobtrusive, polite and professional. He captured some wonderful moments and has given our family the best memories to treasure always. Thank you Nick. We highly recommend this lovely man for any event that requires a very professional photographer. More...

Nick photographed our wedding on a rainy day in October, we couldn't have asked for anyone better. Absolutely stunning photographs, fast turn around from the day and above all, an absolute professional. We chose Nick based on the quality of his previous work rather than by price - but I would say he places himself at a very competitive price point, with outstanding service and quality of images to back it up. Many of our guests commented on how good he is. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a wedding photographer. More...

Nick was simply amazing! So patient with our children and captured all of the images we had hoped for and many more! Nick went above and beyond and showed us the shots as he went along ensuring we were happy with them. We would highly recommend Nick as his attentive attitude and outstanding quality of work speaks for itself. So pleased we chose you to document our special day! Thankyou for all of your hard work- we simply love the images you have captured! Claire and Liam Downer More...

I couldn’t recommend Nick enough. He is professional and efficient and everything we needed to organise ourselves and our guests on our big day. The photos are beautiful and our guests were very impressed not only by the quality of work but the fact that we could see our photos the very next day which none of our other married friends have been able to do with other photographers. Nick gets perfect shots in no time at all to ensure the day runs smooth and everyone enjoys the experience. Thank you so much Nick for making our day so special and giving us memories to cherish.

Would highly recommend Nick for your wedding. Very thorough and professional throughout the booking, on the day and getting us the USB stick asap after the wedding. Loved the way he commanded the group shots which made us spend minimal time having photos which I've heard from friends who didn't use Nick, can be a time-consuming part of your special day.We are over the moon with the photos and the quality and knowledge of the natural shots are just incredible. Thanks Nick for being so flexible and helpful. A really nice guy who was approachable and highly spoken of by all of our guests.Mr and Mrs Humphries15/12 More...

A huge (belated) thank you to Nick. Probably the best money I have ever spent, Nick was friendly, charming and helpful throughout the day, lead guests with confidence and has left us with an incredible set of photographs of the day. The quality of the pictures is absolutely superb, creative and has captured the best parts of the day in the best possible light. In addition to the quality of his work, Nick brings a wealth of experience to weddings - from helping us position our button hole flowers, to using x2 SD cards for safety, to quickly getting all of the shots you could wish for without making guests feel rushed, among a hundred other little touches that help the day run smoothly. Thanks again for all of your hard work, we couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer. Jax & Sab More...

Nick was incredible from start to finish. Very friendly and professional. Made everyone feel at ease when taking photos and had us all laughing and enjoying ourselves. He was very considerate of our wedding being on s very hot day and we had a break in the photos for drinks and food. Nicks photos were up on the website for us to see within a few days, very easy to access and view the photos. We had many guests say how funny and fun he was to work with and he never got in the way of us all having a great day. We would wholly recommend nick for wedding photos, you can expect a great service both before, during an after the wedding! Thanks Nick! More...

If you need a photographer then I have no hesitation recommending him over and over again!!! When we looked for a photographer we wanted someone who could not only capture beautiful pictures but to capture the enjoyment we felt on the day. He done exactly that!! Everyone commented on how much fun he was while taking photos of the young and old. Our memories will fade in time but we will always have these beautiful photos to cherish and look back at and remember how much fun we all had. Thank you Nick More...

5-stars for Nick without a doubt! We had been to a couple of weddings where Nick was the photographer and had both been impressed with the way he manages the group photos, the fact that he is always super smart (unlike some photographers who seem to deliberately dress down) and makes time for everyone else to take photos. He knows that everyone wants their shots too!He completely understood what we wanted from our photos when we said 'fun' and he has the energy and personality to get everyone in the right place to get those special group shots. It really was fun, we are so pleased we chose Nick to be our photographer. Thanks Nick! More...

Being two un-photogenic people, we were hesitant about spending money on a professional photographer but we are so glad we did. Nick managed to take photographs of us we never thought would be possible!Right from the start, Nick put us at ease when he came round to our house to discuss exactly what we wanted.Nick has a great sense of humour so was able to put everyone at ease; from the moment we stepped out of the car, we knew we were in safe hands.

Nick was kind, warm and I felt certain he would get the best from our day. We could not have been happier with the beautiful photographs Nick captured. Our family and friends loved Nick’s fun approach to the day, and after our wedding he was booked to photograph my brother’s wedding in 2016. Three more couples in our friendship group have asked Nick to photograph their weddings since our own, and he has delivered every time! The photographs from each wedding have been unique and personal to the wedding couple, capturing the magic of each occasion in different ways. It has been a real pleasure to meet with Nick over the years, and to watch him deliver some really special results for our friends and family. More...

Hire Nick as your wedding photographer! I cannot recommend him highly enough! My now husband and I were coming from the USA to the UK for our wedding. Our location recommended Nick and with one look at his photographs we were sold! The prices were also very reasonable and affordable. Communication leading up to the wedding was outstanding, and on the day of he showed up right on time. Nick was beyond professional. Our entire wedding group LOVED him and kept remarking on how fantastic and funny he was. He knew exactly where to take the best pictures and took our preferences and input into account. We never once felt rushed, pressured, or uncomfortable. He made sure we took all of the pictures we wanted in all the locations we wanted. I would also like to mention that during important more intimate moments (the ceremony, family hugs, etc.) he was "invisible" and yet managed to take the most perfect photographs capturing those memories. He was never a distraction but rather a wonderful addition to our wedding day! Nick's photographs speak for themselves. They are breathtaking. If you hire Nick, not only will you get the quality, stunning images you see advertised, but you will get the quality and easy going professional person behind those photographs. More...

I cannot recommend Nick enough. I knew he was good before our wedding day as I had read the reviews and seen some of his work, but what we got I don't think I could ever have wished for better. Nick is an awesome photographer that has a plan for all outcomes. If your worried about if it might rain, then dont. Nick knew the forcast off by heart, knew the windows and times that we could get great outdoor shots but always had a trick or two up his sleeve to make the most of indoors if the rain continued.

With Nicks manner and fun banter he felt more like a guest, he was even dressed to the right colour scheme. He filled us full of confidence in his ability allowing us to see some of the pictures straight away. Nick made me look good which takes real talent.

Whilst we ate he worked tirelessly selecting and editing the morning shots. He would regularly check with us if there was any other guest combination pictures we wanted or any type really. As the night started to draw in Nick came to us with a glint in his eye and briefly told us of a picture opportunity idea he had involving storm clouds and lighting. We had full trust in him and made a quick dash outside where he produced that magical picture everyone hopes for.

A genius behind the lens and an absolute gent at the same time. I don't think you could find a better photographer for your wedding. Thank you so much Ross & Danni Heard

I was struggling to find a photograph that was going to get the best out of our day.
Everyone I phoned up and asked about prices and how it was done just told me with no feeling or heart in it until I rang nick, he spoke to me on the phone with feeling and understanding and that filled with confidence.

On our wedding day he did the best job I could of ever of asked for my photons are Amazing he knows how to take the opititinty to get the perfect picture and we was able to see a few finished picture before the day was even out.

From the minute I met Nick I knew he was the guy I wanted to capture the special moments of our wedding. Instantly I took a liking to his warm personality and you could just see the passion in his eyes for his love of photography. Nick made both me, my partner and the rest of our family and friends feel completely at ease from start to finish on the day itself (8th July 2017). Even those that don't like having their photo taken commented on how comfortable they felt with Nick around taking snaps - you didn't even notice he was there half the time. His attitude towards his work is that of a high professionalism and the perfectionist within him meant that if he wasn't happy with something he would continue taking the same shot until it came out perfect - Meaning we had 100's of incredible images to choose from. I honestly could not recommend Nick enough as a Wedding Photographer - a truly talented man who loves what he does. Thank You again Nick. Channon Titley-Baker More...

We chose Nick Williams to be our photographer for our wedding which took place in May 2012, and we were so glad we did.
Prior to the day Nick was extremely helpful, and not at all pushy, showed us some great examples of previous events he had worked on and we were impressed.
On the day Nick was brilliant, he got on well with all the guests and was always there in the background, I think taking the pictures was one of our favourite parts of the day for myself and my husband.
We were excited to see the pictures and Nick has uploaded these onto his site within a couple of days, so got to see them before we went on our honeymoon, they were absolutely fantastic, we have found it hard to pick the ones for our album. Would recommend Nick for any event!

Q&As

I often get told "I'm not photogenic" I love proving people wrong

The opportunity to earn a living from my hobby was too good to turn down. After 997 weddings I still love it.

I think this is best answered by the couples I have photographed.

Nick was definitely the best choice as our wedding photographer. I'm so incredibly happy with the way all of our photos came out. Nick was both professional and extremely funny and laid back throughout the entire day to suit our needs for our relaxed bbq wedding. He managed to capture every perfect moment without giving too many directions or poses and they all came out wonderfully. They are all so beautifully natural and some of the time I didn't realise he was there taking them! I've done photography myself and I knew finding a photographer would be difficult for me, then I met Nick. I've already recommended him to all of my friends and family! Thank you again Nick, we couldn't be happier :) Gemma & Jim x

Hi Nick. Thank you so much for photographing our wedding day. We are over the moon with the photos. You were great on the day, as expected. Your professionalism was perfect and you're ability to capture the right photos while making everyone laugh was class.
