Testimonials
Joel is a beautiful human and a very talented and passionate photographer. Looking at our photos we couldn't believe how they turned out, he captured both gentle and humorous moments. Apart from group photos we were completely unaware that Joel was even taking photos, meaning that many photos are natural and in the moment shots. Joel made all of us feel calm and relaxed. He had great ideas that have meant we have not only traditional wedding photos but unique and artistic ones too. We had complete faith in Joel prior to the day and since receiving our photos, not only are we blown away by them, but so are our family and friends that we have since shown. Joels website is also beautifully presented and easy to navigate and how our photos were collated and emailed to us, once edited, were a joy to look through. We would recommend Joel to anyone for any occasion and look forward to using his services again for other special events. Thanks so much Joel! x

I was looking for a photographer to capture the special moments of our engagement party. I contacted Joel and instantly knew he would be perfect for the job. He was easy to communicate with and listened to what kind of photos I wanted.
On the night, he arrived early and introduced himself to my partner and I and other family members around. Throughout, he captured different moments from the night, from people entering the venue, groups mingling, speeches, decorations and even followed me around towards the end to take group shots with the guests.
The photos he captured were absolutely amazing and exactly what I wanted. My guests commented on how great the photos turned out as well.
I couldn't recommend Joel highly enough to capture your special moments.
