We are watching them again tonight with my Mum, Dad and Sister, everyone is amazed by them. I just wanted to thank you again for capturing our day so beautifully and for our exciting blog. We will treasure these memories for many years to come. How lucky we were to find you!
Thank you so much, Hannah & Andrew xxxx”

Will, we know organising a wedding with the bride and groom in the US was not easy and we are so grateful for all of your help.

Lots of love, Abi and Pete xx”

“Will was absolutely fantastic. He was everything we were looking for in a photographer. From our first meeting we were sure we’d made the right choice. If you are looking for a relaxed and easy going photographer who captures beautiful and natural moments of your wedding, whilst not comprising on gorgeous photography, then do not hesitate to choose Will. We can’t thank him enough!”

“Thanks Will! We are so pleased you were able to photograph our wedding. We both love the image you have previewed and Sarah had tears in her eyes when she saw it…
We love it. This is why we value your photography style so much – you can’t ‘create’ a moment like that. Beautiful photograph – thank you!…
Will, all we can say is perfect! We’re both delighted with them. There are so many wonderful photos that capture an incredible moment. Perhaps my favourite is the one with our daughter Esme playing in Sarah’s veil, completely unaware that you are taking photos of her…
Thanks again, Alex and Sarah.”

Gosfield Hall Wedding
“I had seen Will’s work as he was the photographer for two of my friends weddings and did not hesitate to contact him and ask if he was free for my wedding date. He is an absolutely lovely guy and researched our venue in detail and style of wedding ( An Anglo-Persian wedding) .We had a pre wedding meet up to go through things. On the day he was calm, professional and so likeable for all and felt like one of our guests. He gave us wonderful photos capturing the moment and the Persian ceremony so beautifully and I am so proud and pleased with the result which he obtained in an unobtrusive manner. Everything about his approach was with great care, dedication and love and with a beautiful smile and charm. I think he is a gem and picking the right photographer is so important for a wedding; we were so so right to go with Will. It was also magical that our two close friends had also had him as their photographer and they could meet up so many years later. Will- we cant thank you enough !”
Westcott Barton
“Thank you so much Will, we sat down and watched the slideshow yesterday, the shots are unbelievable.

Thank you again for capturing our wedding in such beautiful, natural and personal photos. We have had some printed and they look incredible! Lots of guests also commented on your friendliness, energy, enthusiasm and ability to put everyone at ease. Many thanks from a very happy Mr & Mrs… ”

“I’m in tears (happy ones)! I love the photo you just sent. Can’t wait to see the rest…
First of all a big thank you! I was going to write, “you know how to make a girl very happy” but think that sounds a bit rude!!!
We are delighted with the photos and it really brought the day back to life again. It was truly a very special day and I live the day all over again when I look at our photos, plus I get to look at all the things I missed!
Once again your work has moved me to tears and also made me laugh out loud. I am so glad that we chose you to capture our special day.
Many thanks and warmest wishes, Alison and Ashley (and Sunny)”

Salcombe Harbour Hotel Wedding
“Thank You. We haven’t seen the photos yet….this thank you is for you and your whole approach and character during our entire wedding day; from the moment you arrived with myself and the bridesmaids to what I imagine you’ve captured of our ‘first dance’, you were fantastic on every level!
You were extremely calm and reassuring which kept us that way; you were great fun whilst remaining very focused (!); you were very unobtrusive yet always there to I’m sure, capture the right shots. You truly felt like one of our friends and guest at our wedding – nothing we would have wanted you change at all.
We had numerous complimentary comments about your personality and approach from our guests, which again added to the wonderful memories of our special day.
Thank you so much Will.

“We are completely and utterly delighted with everything. It is amazing to sit down and relive our wedding- so much we had missed and you get a completely different perspective. We still can’t get over how blue everything looks, we were so incredibly lucky that day.
We did as we were told and watched the slideshow first with a wine or two, a bit like the lady driving that boat! That was fun, and thank goodness we had you with us- not many would have gone along with that! We were so lucky to have you helping out and if you need any recommendations or anything, just say the word. Thank you so much.”
Dartington Hall Wedding
“Yey! Bloodie brilliant Will, thank you so much for capturing the smiles and happiness going on at our wedding.
We are amazed and impressed, seriously. The ability for one man to be seemingly everywhere is incredible and its a real reliving of all the little moments between the big ones.
We’ll take a while to ooh and ahh some more and then have a think about things to do with them.
But thanks – excellent happy stuff. x”

Bovey Castle Wedding
“Will was absolutely fantastic as our wedding photographer. He met us before the big day to discuss everything we wanted. Our wedding didnt follow the standard format and he was brilliant at remembering all the details. On the day Will was super friendly and made all the guests feel relaxed while he was taking photos. He managed to capture some really intimate shots of the ceremony without anyone being aware of his presence. He was also fantastic at checking the weather forecast and keeping an eye on the sky so that he could plan our outside shots for the brightest spell of the afternoon. We are completely thrilled with the photos Will took of our wedding and would recommend him to everyone”

Thanks again for all your hard work, you have done an outstanding job, thank you so much x
Deer Park Wedding
“From the moment we met Will we knew he would document our special day in an informal way that Would tell the story and we weren’t disappointed ! The USB arrived in a little corked bottle inside a miniature wooden crate which set the scene for our viewing but it was so much more than a message in a bottle it was our story ….he’d captured the emotions frame by frame ; excitement , tears of joy & boundless laughter in a slide show that helps us relive that wonderful day. A unique photographic delight ! Thank you.”
St Matthew’s Church and Marquee, Exeter
“Will was absolutely fantastic not only on the day but also before and after the wedding in making sure everything was perfect.

Bovey Castle
“Thank you so much for capturing all of the moments of our big day. Will, we hardly knew you were there, but you managed to get everything on film and we can really feel all of the raw emotion every time we watch the slideshow. Early in the day, the clouds filled the sky and the heavens opened without relenting. I am sure this is the worst nightmare of most photographers. Yet, it didn’t faze you in the slightest. The photos are incredible and your skill really shines through. We could not have asked for a more talented or more relaxed photographer on our special day Vielen Lieben Dank!”

Bingham Wedding, Richmond
“I looked at lots of different photography websites, but thought Will was the friendliest and had the style of photography we were looking for. His style is reportage and very natural, which we loved, and there is not a single photograph from our wedding we don’t love. I would highly recommend him- he is completely chilled out and felt like part of our group of friends on the day. He mixed with everyone, but made sure he was never in the way.”
CANNIZARO HOUSE WEDDING, LONDON
“William and I absolutely love the photographs and can’t stop looking through them. We can’t thank you enough for doing such a fantastic job of capturing the essence of what was for us such a special day. We are so happy and it’s been such a pleasure working with you so far.

We are so happy with the photos we got back and the extremely high-quality albums. In fact, every member of our families to have seen the albums so far has cried. In a good way! Thank you”
