Better than the best
Christian was an angel sent to me and my husband Sean! From first contact we both knew Christian was the photographer for us. When we met up his energy and passion was so touching as it was like he truly cared about us and his work. We got so emotional when Christian was leaving as we knew we had met an amazing human being. Thank you for your amazing hard work and dedication in getting such amazing photos of us! We’re so looking forward to the rest ❤️

Their ability to capture the essence of our love story and turn it into a beautifully woven narrative was beyond amazing. Christian's photography and videography skills were outstanding! He effortlessly encapsulated the most heartfelt moments, preserving them in stunning visuals that we'll cherish forever. Christian's artistry truly made our day unforgettable. Thank you both for making our wedding a dream come true!"

Nothing but amazing
I honestly can't express the appreciation we have for these guys, from the moment I first messaged Cassidy storytelling it was nothing but a positive experience. Christian replied very promptly after I enquired about their services and his whole attitude just grabbed me from the word go, his positivity and excitement regarding our wedding/venue made me even more excited that I already was. His communication throughout was nothing but lovely, always a quick reply and nothing was ever too much trouble. When him and Nicole arrived in Italy for our wedding day they were the most friendly, sociable and professional photographers/videographers I have ever met and with working in the wedding industry myself I have met a fair few! The whole day was beautiful and everyone made comments about how lovely both Christian and Nicole were. When we received our final pictures and videos we were blown away, they are truly amazing with every perfect detail captured. These guys work so hard and it truly shows in their work, i would highly recommend them to anyone and everyone I can 🫶🏼🤍

Best Photographer & Videographer!!
We booked Cassidy Storytelling last October 2022 for our September wedding 2023 that we learned to find Christian was also getting married that weekend . We built up a pretty good friendship from the beginning sharing our excitement for our big days etc .Christian was very professional with all pre wedding day arrangements and emails ect . On the lead up to the big day contact was maintained at a high standard and Christian made us feel very relaxed with no worries at all . On the big day , well where do I start . Christian and Ben arrived and it was evident they knew exactly what they were doing and just got on with it while we were all in the madness of getting ready . I’m not sure what we expected but they definitely exceeded any expectations. They fitted in so well with our friends & family it was like they were one of our guests . For all you brides that want a magical experience listen up ladies . With the bridal party prep I felt as though I had two big brothers with me making me feel very supported with lots of reassurance and for that I will forever be grateful for ,you guys will always have a special place in my heart . They really helped make my morning run as smooth as possible and were my biggest supporters from start to finish . They went above and beyond throughout the whole day and night . The groomsmen party felt they shared the same experience while getting ready .These guys didn’t just turn up and take pictures they helped pin button holes, adjust ties and again was my husbands biggest supporters . All our family and friends fell in love with Cassidy Storytelling and could not stop singing their praise’s even now we still talk about them( in a good way) . These guys was such a huge part of our day and have no regrets that we choose them to share it with . We only wish we could do it all over again . I will forever recommend Cassidy Storytelling who left the biggest imprint on our hearts 🥰

The best wedding ever
We booked Cassidy Storytelling on a recommendation from someone else. I'm so glad I did, right from the start he was so friendly and I felt completely comfortable with him capturing our special day which he did to perfection. It was Russ that did our photography and he was happy to take the shots we wanted and also had some great ideas for shots. When the photos came back, everyone commented on how amazing the photos were and how it was worth paying for a professional photographer. I would completely recommended them to anyone

Frequently Asked Questions

What is your most memorable wedding?

Our first ever wedding. It was a rushed affair as the brides mother was really ill - she didn't have long left and the whole wedding was put together within a month or so with the goal to get the mother of the bride there. Unfortunately on the morning she was too ill - so we held a ceremony at the venue and then myself, the photographer, the bride/groom and other ceremonial participants traveled to the hopsice and held a second ceremony in the hospice room where the MOTB was staying. The photographers said to me that i'd never forget my first wedding, and I definitely won't ... the MOTB passed away the following teatime. As heartbreaking as the circumstances were - I was able to capture some beautifully delicate footage of the hospice ceremony - something the bride has told me is priceless to her - and we as a collective made sure that the brides mother was a part of the wedding then, and now eternally in the photos and videos we captured - a beautiful thought for me.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Storybook / Traditional / Cinematic / Candid / Documentary

What about your business are you most proud of?

At the time of writing this, I have shot over 225 weddings worldwide in the UK, USA, Holland, Italy & Greece ... To be able to create imagery in my styie that I really love and I really enjoy personally, and then have hundreds of couples appreciate that and want that for their wedding too is something that I am so so happy about and so so proud of. My work is my art and to be able to share that and help people capture their most precious memories is an absolute blessing and an absolute dream for me.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

It might sound biased! ... but please give as much prominence to a wedding film as your photographs. Photos are the age old way of remembering a moment - but in the current time, with video, you can relive not just the way something looked - but the way it sounded ... the echo in the church or the cry of the child during the ceremony when the mother or father has to run out the side door with them. Video strikes more senses and for that reason we always create a feature length film, not just a highlight film set to music, so that you can not only see - but hear ... and in turn feel how the day felt! Video is up there with photography, venue, dress - everything - and if you don't decide to book with us ... please make sure you do book ceremony and speech inclusive videography elsewhere!

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

There are so many beautiful moments and touches at each wedding - anything personal hits the heart strings we'd say! ... so when you're looking for the first dance song and Ed Sheeran - Perfect comes to mind (which is a beautiful song! no question) if it isnt personal to you ... go for one that is!

Describe your typical process with a couple.

We can have a relaxed chat either via email / facebook messenger / phonecall and go through the package and pricing info - the 50/50 payment plan - your thoughts and wishes for the day - our style - everything! We don't often meet a couple face to face as we cover the whole UK and distance of course is an issue alot of the time - but if you really want to we can certainly arrange something! Once we've been through everything you can take your time to decide! If you would like to book with us, we send you over our contract and get some basic info and a signature from you - we ask for a 10% deposit of the package total on booking to secure the date and then the remainder can be paid in installments or in full at any time before or on the day itself! (There is also a further 10% discount for payment in full on booking!) We also offer a 50/50 payment option where you can pay half of the total before the wedding for the filming aspect - and then the other half after the wedding when it is affordable for you for the editing aspect - Once the full payment is complete we will complete and deliver your wedding film/photos & extras.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

There will be hundreds of candid shots throughout the day, so my personal favourite photographs to capture are the more dramatic,cinematic ones - the beautiful sunset shot or the drone shots from the skies! - It's your wedding day ... you're a pair of rock stars ... let's get them epic shots!

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

I shot a gothic wedding in Lincoln and the couple were huge fans of the American Gothic painting, so we recreated the shot (including the pitchfork!) in front of Lincoln Catherdral! ... very unique and a lot of fun!

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

If its sunny, raining, snowing ... it doesn't matter! ... we'll find somewhere indoors or outdoors to capture the moments we need to capture and sometimes more adverse weather conditions can make for even better photographs - embrace it all!

Describe how you got into photography.

I come from a film/video background and began filming weddings originally - a lot of the skills transfer over directly from film to photo and after a while I got so many requests for photography that I began to offer it as a service too and now the two services bounce off each other extremely well - the alternation keeps everything fresh and different for us and enables us to tell the stories of the weddings we capture in both film and image!
