  • After a long list of photographers, we met Greg and he had the experience and humor we were looking for, for our wedding. We had engagement photos taken with him (and despite disliking having our photo taken) we were thrilled with the result. Come to the day of our wedding and we couldn't have made a better chose. Greg was friendly, approachable, knowledgeable, patient and accommodating (especially as we had several children at our wedding). Everyone raved to us about how lovely and funny our wedding photographer was. We received our previews and are blown away by his talent. He has truly captured our wedding day perfectly, each moment looking as fun and emotional as our day was. We cannot thank Greg enough for his hard work and just how easy he made the day feel. We cannot wait for our full album, and I am sure we will be blown away once more.

    Greg was an amazing photographer. Not only is he a lovely guy, but he captured our wedding day so perfectly. He put us at ease all day, he was so organised, he gave us great hints and tips leading up to our day. His communication was brilliant and we also did an engagement shoot 6 months before which we would highly recommend doing to ease you into getting your pictures taken (if you aren’t used to it). We have only been sent our previews so far but we love every single one of them and can’t wait to see the full collection. Easy access to the photos via online drive. We can’t recommend Greg enough!! 6/5 stars from us!

    Amazing photographer - wholeheartedly recommended! We got in touch with Greg just under a year before our wedding, and he was reassuring, professional, and considerate from the outset. We could tell straight away that Greg understood what we wanted from the day's photos, but he also made some great suggestions which we took on board. On our big day, he was prompt and proactive, and maintained that throughout. He marshalled everyone brilliantly for the formal, group, and drone shots, and his candid shots throughout the whole day (the speeches and evening in particular) were really natural. He captured each part of the day perfectly. Very creative and a great personal touch - we really couldn't have asked for more. Thank you, Greg! Jason & Vic

    From the very first Zoom meeting Greg has been extremely professional and honest. We were very impressed with how organised Greg was throughout the whole process. From prompt replies to all our questions, through regular checkpoints, down to knowing all the wedding party names on the day. We chose a second photographer with our package to capture all the different angles. On the day both Greg and Richard were professional, friendly, and always put us at ease (both of us being a bit camera shy). The photos turned out amazing and the box containing prints and USB was a lovely touch. Greg also put together an album for us which is a perfect memory book we will cherish for years to come.

    Greg creates a uniquely effortless, friendly and professional environment in all his photography that is unparalleled. It's like having one of your closest friends capture the most special moments of your wedding day, with all the stress removed. Right from the very first interaction, you feel confident that he is connected to your ideas throughout, willing to take direction but also, provide an exceptional level of experience to help guide you whenever. We are over the moon with the photos he captured, making our wedding day all that extra special. Thank you so much Greg!

    It is very difficult to put into words how brilliant Greg was for us. We met Greg only a few days after getting engaged and knew straight away that he would be the perfect wedding photographer for us. Greg was amazing to deal with from the beginning; very responsive to emails, great initial zoom call and nearer the day he made us feel very reassured that everything was under control, helping to answer any queries we had. It was clear that Greg really listened to us to understand exactly what it was that we wanted; balancing getting the perfect photos whilst also allowing us to enjoy our day. On the day we were very nervous having not experienced anything like this before, but he put us greatly at ease allowing us to get the perfect couple shots whilst also making it feel like fun too. Additionally, given the weather at times, Gregs creativity in getting some alternative shots to make the most of the time and space was something to be marvelled at! Having recently received our photos we can honestly say they are beyond what we imagined and we cannot begin to thank Greg and his second photographer on the day, Richard, enough. Thank you so much Greg - we certainly know where to go for all of our photography needs! Rebecca and George x

    We couldn’t of asked for a better photographer and even better person to showcase our wedding, we were fortunate to have met Greg prior to our wedding plans and knew it couldn’t of been anyone except for Greg, he made the entire process leading upto the wedding an absolute breeze and settled any nerves that were present with the planning. And on the day, every moment we would hoped to have immortalised in a photo, he delivered. To this day we still have family members praising Greg with how well he conducted himself not only as the photographer but also as the amazing person he was to make everyone around him feel comfortable. To put it in a nutshell, we couldn’t recommend Greg enough, we wish he could photograph all our great future life events if it was possible!!! We couldn’t thank you enough Greg even if we tried, but we will always be eternally grateful! Jordan & Megan

    Greg did an amazing job of capturing our wedding in such a natural way. He listened and understood exactly what we wanted. Our couple photos were just stunning and are now adorning several rooms in the house in large scale. He captured so many details and expressions on our guests’ faces that we feel in the moment again when we look through them. He found an even better place for our family formals and they have come out equally well. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results. His manner with the guests, particularly when organising the shots of everybody together in the church, was really good. Thanks Greg for preserving the memory of our special day so well!

    We cannot recommend Greg highly enough. From speaking on the phone for the first time we instantly knew he would be perfect as our wedding photographer. Greg made such an effort to get to know us individually and as a couple before even discussing wedding formalities! It made us feel so comfortable and at ease and we knew that we made the correct choice. We had regular contact on the lead up to the wedding and on the wedding day he slotted in perfectly and captured so many informal natural shots as well as the formal photos. We are delighted with our photos and cannot express enough how amazing Greg is! Thanks so much Greg! Lydia and Tom

    Greg was mentioned to us by our wedding venue and was brilliant to deal with from start to finish. His communication was great, from the initial Zoom call to checking in with us nearer the day. Greg really helped put us at ease on our engagement shoot and on the wedding day itself was exceptionally professional (but fun!), including all the key people and shots we wanted but still enabling us to enjoy the reception. The second photographer and drone were great. We can’t wait for the photos and can’t recommend him highly enough.

    Greg took the photographs at our wedding in July 2021. With Covid still lingering, Greg wore a mask at all times and was completely professional throughout the entire day. Greg was so great with us and all of our guests, bringing a fun and friendly vibe making us all feel relaxed. Greg was very patient with all of the different family combination photos we wanted and always said yes to our requests. We had such an amazing day and Greg captured our special moments perfectly.

    Professional, efficient and relaxed Greg was amazing, he’s was so efficient and captured every moment we wanted and more! We felt totally relaxed and trusted in him to get what was needed so we didn’t have to worry or think about anything on the day. The photos were beautiful and we are very happy and would highly recommend Greg! Thank you! Xx

    Greg was an absolutely fantastic wedding photographer and we’re so glad to have chosen him. We did a pre wedding shoot that was so lovely and a great way to feel more comfortable with him on the day. Greg was really lovely, friendly and professional throughout and made us feel so comfortable while ensuring he got the photos we wanted. He helped us to ‘pose’ in a way that was really helpful and looked great on camera. The photos turned out really natural and beautiful. All the communication we’ve had with Greg was prompt and professional, absolutely will be recommending him to all our friends!

    Beautiful wedding photography: From the planning to the actual day, Greg was great to work with. He had a calming and relaxed approach yet was so organised and efficient. An added benefit is that Greg had a second photographer, Steve, who was equally calm and professional. It was reassuring to know that there was a second photographer already booked for the day, just in case there were any Covid related issues. The photos he took were beautiful. Everyone has commented on how lovely they were and the array of candid shots, particularly from the speeches, were perfect in capturing the moment. He was prompt in providing us with our photos on the days that he promised, and it was lovely to have them in both colour and black and white. Thank you Greg, would fully recommend!

  • We chose Greg as our photographer for our wedding based on his portfolio of beautiful naturally styled photographs and we are so pleased that we did! He was fantastic from start to finish. Communication was easy and quick and he was very relaxed, friendly and professional. We nervously went along to meet him for our engagement shoot and within minutes felt calm and relaxed. This then carried through to the day. The finished photos came through much quicker than we expected, especially given how many stunning shots we received. Greg and his colleague Richard, who came along on the day, captured all the special moments perfectly. They also considered and captured so many other moments we either hadn't thought about, or hadn't seen on the day and are so thankful that we now have record of. We can't find fault and honestly cannot stop looking through the album!

    We can't recommend Greg's wedding photography enough! His talent, attention to detail and care absolutely blew us away when we received the photos he had taken on the day. We had no idea he was even there for 90% of the pictures - he was so subtle and unobtrusive, which meant he was able to capture so many beautiful moments! The photos the he took of us as a couple were also absolutely gorgeous. We felt so comfortable and he was really encouraging despite having awful weather - you would honestly not be able to tell it had rained all day, everything just looked lush and green and bright, exactly the atmosphere we had hoped to create. We're a gay couple and think having a photographer who we felt comfortable with and for whom this was zero issue made a huge difference, and he really 'got' our dynamic despite it not being a traditional wedding, so especially recommend Greg if you're looking for an LGBT friendly and experienced photographer. Thank you so so much!

    We booked Greg for our wedding photos and we couldn’t have been happier with Greg’s service from enquiry right through to receiving the photos. We had a pre-wedding shoot which was great, it gave us and Greg the chance to get to know each other and each other’s styles. The photos we received were brilliant and made us so excited for what would be taken on the day! We’d paid for an additional photographer which was arranged through Greg, his name was Steve. Both Greg and Steve were so brilliant on the wedding day, they both just blended in and nothing was too much effort for them. Some things were a bit behind schedule and they were both so accommodating at every point during the day. Greg sent us a preview of around 20 photos a few days after the wedding which was such a lovely surprise! The photos were stunning and everyone commented on how brilliant they were. We’ve now received the full album and we were both just lost for words when we were looking through. The little details have been caught in such a lovely way and the photos have been a brilliant reminder of a brilliant day. There have been a lot of tears from us and from family as we’ve gone through them. Thank you Greg and thank you Steve 😊 you made our day relaxed and enjoyable!

    We were very lucky to have Greg shoot our wedding photos in March 2022. After looking on his website we were drawn to the casual and unintrusive nature of his photographs. This very much suited our personality and our desire to capture the moods and reactions of our guests over and above larger and more theatrical photographs. From the moment we met with Greg via Zoom, we instantly knew that he would be the right person for us. He was detail oriented but was also so personable that it took a lot of the anxiety about the process away from us. Greg made it very clear how the day would run and therefore meant that we would be relaxed enough to also get the most out of our day. We initially met Greg for an engagement shoot. As well as producing some fantastic shots that we used for our wedding, it also allowed us to understand more about the sorts of shots that we liked ahead of the big day. We’d highly recommend doing an engagement shoot ahead of the wedding for that reason. Greg’s thorough approach to planning the day meant that we were 100% sure that we were going to get the shots that we wanted on the day. This saved us from having to have a list or actually pay too much attention ourselves, allowing us to enjoy spending time with our guests. On the day, Greg and his second shooter were incredible. They did a fantastic job of taking the photos, but also of arranging the various shoots that we’d required and managing a crowd of people. Once again, the approach that Greg takes really took the stress out of the day for us. The quality of the final photos was absolutely fantastic, and we are thrilled with them. This was altogether more impressive due to the fast turnaround with which Greg managed to edit them and send them to us. Alongside our full album, Greg also put together a fantastic YouTube slideshow of some of the highlights for us. This is fantastic and wonderfully captures the emotion and joy of our day in a way that is easy to share with our friends and family. We’re very much looking forward to receiving our wedding album from Greg. Based on his work on everything else to do with our day, we have no doubt that it will be of the highest quality. Throughout the entire process, Greg has been communicative, approachable, professional and a real calming influence for us. It was a very special day, and I can’t imagine that anybody else would have been able to capture that better than Greg! Thank you so much Greg!

    Fantastic wedding photographer (and really nice guy!) We initially shortlisted Greg because his website showcases a very natural style of photography and we didn't want anything too formal. He got back to us quickly, explained how he works really clearly, and most importantly was nice, friendly, and a real pleasure to deal with! He was brilliant on the day, made us feel relaxed, made great shot suggestions, and was fantastic with the guests. He also took absolutely brilliant wedding photos which really do capture how special the day felt; we're both incredibly grateful to him!

    Greg was fantastic from start to finish. He came recommended to us so we’d already seen his photos from a previous wedding. However we still wanted to make sure his style would be right for us. Greg was very responsive and quick to cover all our questions. Once we agreed the package based on venue and number of guests, we felt very confident not only that he understood the type of atmosphere we wanted to achieve but also he was really competitively priced. Including a second photographer, practice shoot and travel so there were no hidden costs. On the day Greg was brilliant, he got there early to ensure he had time to view the venue and pick out the best spots. He had already chatted through the day with us a few weeks before so he was able to focus on photography on the day and let the day flow. Greg was very knowledgeable on what could be achieved in the time frame we had, so always gave advice to ensure the day ran smoothly but we also captured everything we wanted. Greg was also extremely flexible on arrangements as with the British weather, plus covid, we had to have a couple of plan Bs. We absolutely loved our photos. I was very self-conscious on the couples pictures but Greg helped them look natural as well as capturing lot’s of candid detail from the day. The hardest part is narrowing down the selection!

    Faced with organising a wedding entirely in lockdown, finding a photographer was one of the many challenges we faced. After drawing up an initial list of local photographers and scanning their websites, Greg's stood out. His natural and documentary style really appealed as did his clear pricing structure. I filled out the enquiry form on the website and no sooner was it sent, I received a reply. Greg and I had an initial phone call where we discussed initial plans for our day. I warmed to Greg immediately and was keen to get him booked but it was important that my partner felt the same. Greg totally understood this and we arranged a video call a few days later. We came off the video call and my partner was totally on board and commented on how awesome Greg was - not like any of our pre-conceptions of a cheesy wedding photographer! Sadly more lockdowns got in the way of our original wedding date but again, Greg was totally supportive throughout the uncertainty and even shared information that would be helpful around the various implications for the wedding in each stage. When looking at new dates, Greg and our caterer's availability were key. Greg's attention to detail and communication throughout was amazing. He always responded quickly to any emails which was especially appreciated in a time of so much uncertainty. He listened and totally understood the day we wanted, taking the time as well to meet us at the reception venue in the lead-up as well as making time to become familiar with the ceremony venue. He got to know us as people and made us feel comfortable. Neither my partner or I are fans of being in the spotlight but Greg enabled us to be at ease and relaxed for photos. On the day, it felt as though another friend had arrived. Given it was a small wedding Greg blended in beautifully with our guests and many of them commented on how great he was. He was particularly skilled in capturing beautiful photos of my nieces, engaging them so well at various points of the day. The photos themselves are absolutely beautiful. They were delivered in a timely way in person in a beautiful engraved wooden box with a small selection of photos from the day which was an unexpected surprise. Having the full collection on a USB and being able to print however we liked was important to us when looking for a photographer and not being caught by extra hidden add-ons. In short, I can't speak highly enough of Greg and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer.

    Sorry it’s taken so long to leave you a review!! Greg, we can’t thank you enough for capturing all the memories from our wedding day, as I’ve said to you before they are so much better than I could have ever dreamt. You were a life saver when you agreed to shoot our wedding when our first photographer fell through, I’m definitely a believer of things happen for a reason! You were always so professional on both the pre wedding and wedding day shoots, making both me and Adam (who normally hate having our photos taken!) feel at ease and relaxed in front of the camera. Your communication was excellent throughout the lead up and after the wedding, replying to messages promptly and answering any questions we had. Everyone that has seen my photos have been in amazed by how beautiful they are and how well you captured moments from the day. You even pleased my grandad (that’s hard to come by🤣). Thank you again for creating the most beautiful wedding album for us!! Abbie & Adam xx

    We booked Greg for our wedding which was small, intimate, natural and a but quirky. Finding a photographer who could capture all these qualities without being intrusive and while keeping guests entertained and at ease was a challenge, but Greg did a brilliant job. We are thrilled with the final results and would definitely book him again for a family celebration or party, even if it was relatively small, as he captures the essence candidly, which had the advantage of encouraging people to keep their camera phones in their pockets and enjoy themselves! Can't recommend highly enough - thanks Greg!

    Greg is likely to be the best kept secret in Wiltshire! As somebody who organises weddings and events for a living, I know how important a good photographer is. Photographs are a lasting memory that should take you back in time and leave you a little misty eyed, and Greg's photographs do just that. He always captures the moment and the atmosphere, creates beautiful scenes and never misses those tiny details. With his professionalism, easy going personality and creativity, professionally, I always recommend Greg. Personally, I asked Greg to photograph my own wedding. He listened to our brief and not only delivered what we wanted but completely exceeded our expectations. Thank you so so much for my own beautiful wedding photos and for the photos of other brides who's big day you just made bigger...

    Greg came to our house when our baby was 6 months old to do a photo shoot with our family. He immediately put us at ease, was confident and professional. He worked wonders with our little one and knew exactly how to get her to smile and focus on the camera. We were so pleased with the pictures - even me and my husband look nice and we were severely sleep deprived at the time! We’ll definitely have Greg back to photograph another milestone in our daughter’s life. Thanks Greg!

    We had a family shoot with Greg earlier this year. I was a little apprehensive as I don't usually like my picture being taken and we have a toddler who likes to do what he wants when he wants, but we really wanted an outdoor photo session. Greg was fantastic, he put me at ease straight away, and reassured us that we could take a break if and when our boys needed one. We all had a blast, it was one of the best shoots we have had. We were all really relaxed and my husband and I were absolutely thrilled with the photos from our session. We can't decide which ones we like the most to get on a canvas. Many of our family and friends have commented on how lovely all the pictures are too. I loved that there are natural photos and posed photos. Thank you so much for being so kind and patient with us all, we would highly recommend booking a session with Greg. You won't be disappointed.
