We had a great experience of having Phil as our wedding photographer. The pre wedding engagement shoot gave us a good idea of the type of shots we would like on the day and it also helped us get to know Phil. On the big day itself Phil was very thorough and efficient at taking the photos and made sure lots of special little moments were captured, like my dad making the final touches to his speech! Phil's calm and friendly manner made the whole experience of having our photos taken relaxed and enjoyable. We could not be more happy with the wedding photos we have received, and we would highly recommend Phil for taking anyones wedding photographs.

This man is a natural. He has taken brilliant photos of mine and my mum's cat. One of the photos of my mum's cat ended up on the cover of an American cat magazine and other pictures he took of her cat have won prizes. He loves animals which really helps!
