We met with James one year before the wedding in June to find the perfect location for the pictures and then again before the wedding to make sure we were still happy with the chosen locations. He made us feel at ease and just snapped away and got natural photos of all our family and friends just chatting and laughing and enjoying their day.
We found James after searching the internet and met him a year before our wedding to go over locations and explain what we wanted from our photos. James was extremely well researched on the local area we left our first meeting feeling happy.
One year later came the wedding and we really could not have asked for any better. James listened to our ideas and was the ultimate professional. He really did go above and beyond what was required of him on the day.
Our pics arrived by post soon after our wedding day and we could not have been happier with them. They were exactly what we wanted. They really did capture the day for what it was We also featured in the Irish Times and it was a great end to a great day.
I would have no issues in recommending James. As stated above he is the ultimate professional and a very likable person willing to listen to others ideas as well as his own!
Our wedding was over two days, as you can imagine this was quite hectic. James was more than happy to go with the flow and at no point did we feel uncomfortable.
The results of the two days speak for themselves; we are delighted with our photographs – a testimony to James’s great passion for photography.
I would highly recommend him to all. Thanks so much James : )
Our album is absolutely beautiful! Your personality is very nice and kind too. You are a dream photographer that is no doubt.
On the day James faded in the background. He took some shots in a barley field near our house which we absolutely loved; they were so natural.
James captured the day perfectly. We’d highly recommend him. Thanks again for the memories.
