So glad we booked Sam as our wedding photographer. He was really helpful and friendly throughout and from the day we booked him. He made everyone feel relaxed on the day, particularly me, and he never stopped. He knows his stuff and the gorgeous photos proved this. I would recommend Sam to anyone.

A true professional and a gentleman. Sam understood very well what we wanted and nothing was too much bother. I would highly recommend Sam. He visited us twice before our big day to make sure everything ran smoothly. Everybody that has seen the photographs have said how good and natural they are.

We hired Sam for our wedding. Right from the start he made us feel relaxed. He explained how he works, and what to expect, but over all he just put us at ease having a laugh with us and we knew straight away he was the man for the job.

He took us on an engagement shoot, so we got a feel of how the day would be. After showing us the pictures he asked if there was anything we didn't like or anything he could improve on but we were very impressed.

On the wedding day he came round early In the morning, driving back and forth getting shots of the bride and the groom getting ready, and everyone else involved, getting some lovely group shots.

Throughout the day he made sure nobody was left out, getting every shot we asked of him and more. Sometimes he was like a ninja and you didn't even know he was there, which lead to some nice surprises when receiving the pictures.

We highly recommend him. He puts in 100%! We've hired him since then for a 60th birthday party and everyone commented about the effort he put in. We've stayed in touch since, and would happily hire him again.
