Not only are Stuart’s award-winning photographs incredible (they speak for themselves), but his people skills are very special. From my initial enquiry, to phone conversations, to the practice photo shoot, to our meetings and then in particular on the day itself, Stuart’s humour and warmth instantly put everybody at ease (even a very nervous bride!) He and his partner Gillian felt like our friends on the day of the wedding and were the perfect mix of laughs, smiles and professionalism whilst being completely unobtrusive to the running of the day. The resulting photographs are out of this world and many wouldn’t look out of place in a glossy magazine spread. Stuart takes great pride in doing what he does very, very well and as far as I’m concerned, sets the standard for others to aspire to. Stuart went above and beyond the role of a wedding photographer. I was a very fussy customer and knew exactly what I wanted from my photographs. Instead of brushing off my concerns, as I know many other photographers would have done he listened carefully, asked questions, looked at examples and gained a good insight into what was in my head. On the day, Stuart had a carefully timed plan and list which he consulted to ensure that everything I asked for happened and every photo I wanted was taken, even going out of his comfort zone to take a few photos in a different style to his usual angle. The result is a bespoke set of photographs which allowed my input, beautifully executed by the obvious talent of Stuart. He was determined to get it right for me and I’ll be eternally grateful!
