David Blackshaw Wedding Photographer Kent

read moreI wholeheartedly feel for all couples that planned to get married this year. These unprecedented and unforeseen circumstances have thrown a huge spanner in your plans. I have been able to rebook most clients in for similar dates next year. I am taking lower deposits and where possible will always be happy to transfer these to another future date should it become necessary. Bookings can be handled entirely via email, we only need to meet a month or so before your wedding. We will get together in happier times nearer to your wedding and arrange an informal get together at your venue.

read moreI was an early adopter of the more relaxed documentary style of wedding photography, capturing the essence of the day, with guests looking relaxed, happy and mostly unposed. Clients often say my relaxed approach made them feel totally at ease being center of attention for the day. Throughout the day I'll be recording all the events as the day unfolds, plus those important small details that made the day uniquely yours. This is photo journalism documenting the whole day in a storybook fashion. You still need those important formal moments captured, along with some creative individual and group portraiture.

I am always overwhelmed by the love and wonderful feedback I continue to receive from my couples. We got married in Brighton this September and very much liked the style of David's photography. We were not disappointed. We would like to thank you ever so much for the wonderful photography of our special day. From the first meeting we knew that you would be ideal for our needs. All the guests remarked on how courteous you were on the day as well as adding an element of fun to ours and their pictures.

read moreTraditional Photo Booths can be so much fun but they do limit your guests to a confined space and fixed background. Our own variation gives so much more flexibility, plus you have the creativeness of a top professional photographer to capture all the fun. Guests much prefer interacting with friends and often love using their own camera's and phones to upload selfies to facebook etc. Our range of photo booth props are guaranteed to inspire silly, quirky and totally unique images. Along with some random items just too silly to list here plus the odd extra surprise or two thrown in (literally) for good measure!

A very popular cover choice with a high definition print encased seamlessly between bevel cut acrylic. This eye catching glossy finish creates a high impact look and can be combined with any cover materials for the spine and back cover. Your cover design will be printed as a full high definition photographic print and bound directly to the front of the book. The print itself is sealed with a satin matt finish to produce a gorgeous non reflective cover that is hard wearing and fingerprint resistant.

read moreThrough my pictures I love to capture the day as a story beginning with your bridal preparation. I usually like to arrive at least 90 minutes before the ceremony to capture the mood and all the excitement as the momentum of the day builds. Firstly, all the essential accessories need to be photographed creatively in their own environment, always using natural light where possible. Then the attention switches to the bride herself with hair/make-up shots whilst not forgetting those all important bridesmaids and family members.

read moreBeautiful photography for couples eloping to Devon or Cornwall to enjoy a fun and stress free wedding, keeping things simple and intimate. The South West has an abundance of stunning countryside, romantic beaches and venues that cater perfectly for smaller weddings, all a far cry from the bells and whistles of a traditional wedding. You may simply be overwhelmed by the prospect of arranging a large event or perhaps the budget just isn't stretching enough to include all those Aunts, Uncles and Cousins you see once every two years.
