Oscar was the photographer for my wedding. Both my new husband and I were very happy with the photos. Oscar made us both feel very relaxed and comfortable on the day which resulted in amazing photos that we will cherish forever! Would definitely recommend Oscar to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

I went along looking for a couple of headshots. In 30 minutes Oscar took loads of different photos with lots of different backgrounds and settings and I came away with some great new photos for my website and LinkedIn. Expert, professional and diligent.

I like working with Oscar. First of all, of course, because of the fantastic photos result. I hired him for a graduation photo and he gave me beyond what I can expect from a photographer. I only told him I like my graduation teddy bear and he made most of my photos become a fairy-tale-like, which is really me. He is also an easy photographer to work with, dedicated and he knows what he is doing (as it's reflect on the results). If you need a photographer that can give you great photos and those that are really you, Oscar is the right person.

We had our wedding photography done through Oscar Colman Weddings. Oscar and Gabriela were outstanding from start to finish. The process to book was straight forward and the service we received from the start, including the price was excellent. Oscar was very informative during the whole booking process which helped massively as we were new to it. On the day, both Oscar and Gabriela were incredibly friendly, professional and outstanding in their work. The photos were turned around very quickly and the quality of the photography was far beyond what we expected. The photos turned out amazing and

If you are looking for amazing magazine quality photos, then Oscar is the person for the job. Oscar has an incredible eye for detail and the photos showed.
