kind words

“It was a pleasure to work with John from the first email months before the wedding to the last shot he took.

His professionalism and approach-ability made the entire process stress-free, and despite less than perfect weather on the big day, Johns creativity and spontaneity resulted in some truly wonderful images that we’ll forever treasure.”

Emma & Martin

“I wish I could give more than five stars! My husband and I are notoriously awkward in front of a camera but John not only put us both completely at ease but managed to capture some incredible photos of our wedding in the process. John was super laid back but a complete professional. His modern style of photography suited us perfectly and not only is he clearly a talented man but a really lovely guy to boot! Can’t recommend enough!”

Amy & Sam

“John was absolutely amazing. We had John for two days, registry office & party and he delivered on every single photo! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer, he captured both days perfectly and made us all feel so at ease! Couldn’t recommend enough!”

Fion & Iain

“Not only is John an amazing photographer (seriously, your photos will make you happy cry as you re-live your day) and an absolutely lovely guy, I also think he has ninja training. His ability to be everywhere, capturing the atmosphere of your day, whilst also not being noticed or intruding on the special moments he photographs, is quite frankly incredible.
We don’t typically like having our picture taken, but John made us feel 100% comfortable from start to finish and I would recommend him to anyone.
We will treasure our wedding album forever – Thank you John!”

Joanna & Scott

“John was the perfect fit for our wedding day. He was calm, put everyone at ease and took the most beautiful photos! We were nervous about our couple portraits, but he made us feel so relaxed and comfortable that we ended up really enjoying it!
Looking back through our photos has been an absolute joy. John has captured all the little details and moments of our day, as well as taking beautiful photos of the venue and spaces we were in.
We wholeheartedly recommend John for both his presence on the day and the gorgeous photos he took for us! Thank you so much!!!”

Emma-Jane & Andrew

“Rhodri & I have spent the last few days looking at the photos you’ve sent over, we really couldn’t be happier! You’ve perfectly captured how much fun everyone had on our wedding day and we are so grateful”

Nicola & Rhodri

“John was amazing, he made everything so easy and such a lovely person to share time with.
We had photos at Parc Le Breos and then at Three Cliffs Beach, we weren’t expecting to get so many different locations but John wanted to do as much as we could to get amazing photos.”

Rosali & Chris

“Highly recommend John. He captured our wedding in may at Nash point lighthouse beautifully. We loved his style and he suited the unique venue perfectly. He is discrete and captures all aspects naturally. Also the attention to detail right through to sending the pictures to us has been wonderful. Thanks John!”

Daniella & Dale

Hi John. Just a quick Hi from Aime and myself before I say how delighted we both are with the photographs. We could not be any more pleased with the final product, we are thrilled! I would also like to thank you for the way in which you conducted yourself throughout the whole process. Diolch yn fawr iawn!!! ps how you made the rain disappear amazes me! A great photographer and a magician to boot!!!

Aime & Justin

“John proved to be the right choice for our special day, his informal and unobtrusive style was perfect! John was friendly, easy going and quick to respond to any queries.

We had our photos in no time and were amazed at how many we didn’t know had been taken, this particularly added an element of surprise and enjoyment to the viewing.”

Sam & Neil

“Very relaxed, natural and creative photography. John’s photography suited my husband and myself as we do not like posing for photographs so his informal style of capturing moments was fantastic.

We have beautiful pictures of our special day which really capture the essence of us as a couple. Thank you so much John!”

SWANSEA AND SOUTH WALES WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Wedding Photography you can feel.

Blending in is my special move.

I’m John, a documentary wedding photographer based in Swansea, South Wales; telling love stories all over South Wales and beyond for the past 15 years.

I want your day to feel completely yours, no posed cheese, just good vibes on a great day. I know what makes for a great wedding day and how having a chill photographer can make it so!

You want great photos but don’t want to turn your day into a photoshoot
You want an experienced photographer
Maybe you hate having your photo taken
You want an epic party with all your closest people

I do everything to give my couples the absolute best experience and a collection of wedding photos that really feels like ‘them’. If this sounds like your vibe, I’d love to hear from you.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Yes. As this is my full time profession I have full Public Liability and Professional Indemnity business insurance. I also carry backup camera and lighting equipment.

I aim to deliver your photos in around 6 to 8 weeks. Also, I’ll always try and get a few sneak peaks out over insta pretty sharpish!

Yes. Your online gallery has a built in shop where you are able to order prints, albums and lots more directly. Also, as you receive high resolution images with printing rights, you are able to take them anywhere you like to get them printed.

Of course! Before the wedding I will ask for a short list of these. They are usually done shortly after the ceremony.

I strongly believe that you shouldn’t book a photographer without seeing an example of what a full day gallery looks like. I’m more than happy for you to view any of my previous weddings. Let me know your chosen venue and I can show you some examples of weddings I have previously photographed there.

For a full day wedding, you will receive a minimum of 700 images, usually lots more. For a Part Day (6 Hour) wedding, anything from 400 up. Ceremony, its hard to give a figure but from approx 150 upwards.

Initially there is a booking payment/retainer for Full Day coverage of £400, £300 for Part Day 4+ Hours, £250 for Part Day 2-3 Hours Your remaining balance is then due two weeks before the date of your wedding. If you would like to spread that into a few payments, just let me know and we can set that up easily.

Personally, I believe that you can only really do one at a time and do it well, so I only offer photography. However I often work with lots of great videographers in South Wales and would be happy to recommend some to you.
