James is outstanding! We couldn't be happier with the photos - they are of exceptional quality and he captured the day perfectly. On the day, James was a true professional and exceptionally easy going - our guests have also commented on this. Thank you James - we can't thank you enough, you are amazing at what you do.

We are so thrilled with James photography. We met James at a close friends wedding and thought he must know the couple because he was so personable. Their photos were stunning so we knew we had to book James if he was available. What we noticed is how professional, efficient but also very relaxed and personable James is. The photos were exactly what we wanted - capturing special moments but not too staged or fussy. James was flexible and we booked a smaller package due to having a small covid wedding at our home. We thought the time restraint would impact the ability to capture special moments

James was a pleasure to work with. My husband doesn't have much patience and I knew he wasn't going to do too many photos on the day or complain if it was taking too long. James got amazing photos quickly, efficiently and dealt with my husband very well, so I didn't have to! Haha
He was a pleasure to have there on the day and captured the day perfectly! I would highly recommend him.

James was absolutely fantastic and I cannot recommend him highly enough! He was easy going and amazing with the bridal party. He captured all of the important moments but also so many of the small intimate moments that made our day so special. We loved every single photo and the albums were gorgeous. He guided us through the day and made everything so easy. I wouldnt have changed a thing!

Had 4 weeks to go till wedding and for the life of me couldn't find a photographer, I popped an ad up on onflair and James replied back.
Had our wedding on Saturday and sneak previews were sent on the Sunday, I was so surprised by the quality of photo's and little details James picked up. So impressed by James, honestly for the price my expectations were so low. I highly recommend James to everyone, thank you for being the perfect photographer!
