Full Description
Natural wedding photography in Kent for laidback lovers tying the knot. I keep vibes chilled ensuring you, your family and friends feel at ease, so I can capture genuine emotions and those spontaneous moments. When photographing your wedding I aim to tell the unique story of your day, capturing the natural moments that you will look back at and treasure forever. I have a candid/ documentary style taking candid shots and working in an unobtrusive way (not the barking orders type). I work mostly with natural light and take care not to alter the ambiance you have worked so hard to create for your wedding. I am friendly, outgoing, have a good sense of humour and strive to make you and your guests feel comfortable with being in front of the camera.

The most magical day of our lives
We were so lucky to share the happiest day of our lives with Tom. My husband and I usually ones to shy away from a camera but Tom made us feel at ease through the whole day- it was like having a friend around all day and it became fun! We had previously met Tom before our big day at our venue, where he did some shots with our dog which were amazing. During the ceremony, we didn't even notice he was there so we didn't feel any added pressure. After the wedding, we couldn't wait to receive our photos and we were in awe of how incredible and beautiful they are. He captured so much beauty at the venue and captured the magical feeling we had throughout the whole day. Overall, the best photographer we could have asked for and all-round great guy. We can't thank him enough!

Everything we could possibly have wanted.
The main thing everyone says about what they want for their wedding is that it is relaxed and that it is fun. Tom could not have epitomised this enough in the way he not only captured our day but how he interacted with everyone there. He not only engages with whoever is there to pose but also takes shots from places and angles you wouldn’t even know he was there, all of which brings together a collection of incredible moments that now allow us to enjoy the wonderful experience everyday. Tom will keep you at ease, he’ll suggest what you wouldn’t think of and he’ll deliver beyond your imagination. Thanks Tom for everything

Our wedding 9.12.22
Tom was incredible from start to finish - he listened to our thoughts and our ideas and gave plenty of recommendation. On the day he fitted right in and ensured we captured the best photos with the minimal lighting we had for a December wedding. As a couple that are quite camera shy, he made us feel at ease straight away. I’d recommend Tom to anyone, it was like he was part of the family - we had so many lovely comments about him from our guests. Do not hesitate to book!

What amazing photography!
Me and my partner met Tom at a Wedding Fayre and from the get go, he was friendly , professional and helpful. He communicated well and on the day he was fantastic. He was very well organised, calm and so many of our guests commented on how nice he was. As for the wedding photographs themselves, they are amazing and we love them. Thank you very much for your hard work Tom. All the best Sarah and Omer

Tom was absolutely incredible
Tom was absolutely incredible, we had to unfortunately keep moving our wedding date due to the pandemic and he was really helpful each time. He listened to exactly what we wanted and really understood what we wanted our wedding to be about, on our wedding day it was more like having an old friend around whilst also being the ultimate professional. Tom took some incredible shots and made sure we had some unique photos just for our wedding. Can't recommend him enough, he's extremely talented but also a lovely person to have around you on your wedding day!

Best day ever
Tom was absolutely fantastic at our wedding. No ask was too big or small to make sure we got the perfect shots. Be fit right in with all of our guests and always had time for questions both before and during our special day. We couldn’t imagine anyone else to help us capture our big day and the pictures he managed to get really helps us to relive the most perfect event of our life.

FAQ

What is your most memorable wedding?

I adore visiting the huge stunning venues full of history and detail. But my most memorable wedding was held at the couple's local pub! It was a beautiful sunny day so they enjoyed live music, afternoon tea and even their wedding speeches in the pub garden. The couple are big sci-fi fans and had chosen a Star Wars themed wedding cake. I just had to add a light saber when editing their 'cutting the cake' photos!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Natural, fun, candid, chilled, creative

What about your business are you most proud of?

The feedback from my couples is that I am like an extra member of the family at the wedding. I see this as a big compliment as I strive to put people at ease so they are comfortable in front of the camera.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

While planning your big day, don't forget to enjoy it! Think about what interests you as a couple and bring those details into your wedding day to make it unique to you.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Couple designed their own wedding logo based on their heritage symbols

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I meet all couples to chat about your wedding and the photography style you like. This also gives you the opportunity to look through some albums and prints of my photos. Before your wedding day, I will visit your venue to scope out some interesting and unique shots for you. I always arrive early on the big day to get some detail shots before your guests start arriving. I capture your day in a documentary style and stay for your evening guest arrivals, first dance and a few dance floor shots too. After editing your photos, I deliver them on a USB stick within 4 - 6 weeks. Those photos are yours to use as you wish. I can create albums and arrange prints for you if that's something you are interested in too.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

There are so many to choose from! It might sound obvious but a natural/ unposed photo of you two. There will be formal shots taken throughout the day but a natural candid photo of you guys, capturing the moment is my No.1.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

That's got to be one of my brides throwing an axe at her new husband ... don't ask!!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Embrace the rain! I always have an umbrella in the car on standby , so we can catch a great rain shot. This is Britain after all!

Describe how you got into photography.

I have always been into photography, taking photos since I was a child. When I started I was using actual film and I learned to develop in a makeshift dark room in the family bathroom. I believe that learning the rudiments of photography using film has given me a good understanding of the art form. I married my wife in 2014 and was inspired to get into professional photography by our own wedding photographer!
