Testimonials

“ They arrived this morning and they look AMAZING!!! What a wonderful eye for shots you both have and such attention to detail!

I just wanted to say thank you so much for the photos. They are absolutely fantastic and we are thrilled. Everyone who’s seen them has said how wonderful they are and how talented you are! You managed to perfectly capture the feelings and emotion of the day; when I look at them I can remember every moment. We can’t thank you enough. Please send us your address again so we can send a small token of our appreciation.

We would have absolutely no hesitation recommending Ben (& Sam) to capture your wedding! We are over the moon with the photos! Ben and Sam are such lovely people too. Right from the start they took the time to get to know us and establish what shots we would like. They gave us a lot of time and attention and it felt like they were cared so much about the final product. (Some other photographers we met treated our wedding just like a job or any other wedding).Book him whilst you can! ”

“ For our wedding we had approached a number of photographers but Ben proved from the very beginning how much he was passionate not just about the art of photography but about our event too. Unlike many others, he spent a lot of time communicating with us, suggesting, asking, caring; simply showing a genuine interest, enthusiasm and a great degree of professionalism.

On the wedding day, he was incredibly discreet and at the same time supportive, creating natural atmosphere where we felt absolutely comfortable as if he (and his wonderful assistant/girlfriend Samantha) was a part of the family. On the way from Cambridge to Grantchester (on punts) he would often jump off the boat and suddenly appear above us on a bridge or on the bank to take the best photos. The result is absolutely amazing since he is not just enthusiastic but also very professional and he knows his art.

We have wedding photos that are all we dreamed of, priceless memories of the great day. Ben’s photos are not only technically perfect but they have soul, atmosphere and capture the feelings of the day wonderfully. Thank you Ben, you are amazing photographer and person! x “

“ Ben was recommended to us and we knew from the moment we met that he was the perfect photographer for our June wedding in Cambridge. He showed such enthusiasm and passion for photography. The photographs reflect the relaxed, vintage mood of the day quite perfectly.

We loved how you captured the genuine emotions of everyone and caught the moments of the day that we missed. We have had so many compliments from family and friends and loved being able to give photographs for Christmas presents. Thank you so much Ben – we cannot stop looking at the photographs, we will treasure them forever. ”

“ We discovered Ben through his Facebook page when we were searching for wedding photographers Cambridge, and we were struck by the beautiful photographs in his portfolio. What especially appealed to us was that Ben’s photos have a very natural look about them: they capture the real event, rather than an artificial version. It is difficult to find a photographer who takes beautiful, high quality photos but is still able to convey genuine atmosphere. One of the best features of the service was meeting Ben for coffee a couple of times before the big day: he really made the effort to get to know us and to get a feel for what we wanted. As for the day itself, Ben was flexible and very patient and, most important of all, the photos are absolutely wonderful. Seeing the album for the first time brought huge smiles to our faces, and we are so happy to have such a beautiful keepsake of our wedding day. Thank you so much! “

“ Ben has a way of capturing the moment in all the right ways, and he is able to see the wedding as you see your own wedding. I think that was a big fear for me, that our big day in pictures wouldn’t be the way I had experienced or imagined it. And with Ben I knew he would catch all those priceless moments and that he would listen to everything that I wanted.

I think our favourite bit of Ben’s style was, well, everything really. He was calm, funny and on the day, reassuring. He was really organised which was really assuring. He does have a knack of catching you and your guests at just the right moment to make that perfect picture.

Our experience with Ben was absolute top notch. Throughout our wedding journey Ben was helpful, professional and listened to our wants and needs in order to get exactly what we wanted. Ben is also so invested in his work that you know at the end of the day he has given it his all. He cares about your wedding just as much as you do; Ben is a true professional and offers a phenomenal service.

Our one top tip would be to fall in love with excel as much as you have for your future partner! Excel and organisation is the key to a successful wedding, and always prioritise your wedding photos as they are the memories that can be passed down throughout the generations. “

“We first met Ben in a coffee shop shortly after securing him to photograph our wedding. We were presented with this incredibly tall man with the kindest face and the warmest personality. We quickly learnt that Ben has this infectious soul that only comes from someone who is full of love for everyone and everything and is full of kindness from head to toe. There is not a better person you could have the pleasure of sitting and having a coffee with.

On the day of our wedding, we not only had the pleasure of seeing Ben again but we also meet his fiancé Sam. Sam was this warm and beautiful person with this lovely smiley face who you instantly felt completely drawn too and who you just wanted to natter with continuously. So before any work has even started you have just met two people that you think are amazing and can’t wait to spend your special day with.

I think it important that whoever reads this knows who you are working with. This isn’t just a job for them, this is a passion and a dream for both Ben and Sam and you can tell they love it!

Throughout the day of our wedding, and the morning after, not only did we have guests repeatedly telling us how good looking Ben and Sam were, but they all kept complimenting on how they were always there in the background taking photos of everything that was going on and were so impressed to see some of the angles that were being used to fully captured a moment in its best form. Their eye for a shot is just amazing as we have seen since receiving our pictures.

We expected that Ben and Sam would be there for a number of hours, expecting really until after our first dance which most photographers offer, but we couldn’t have been more wrong! Ben and Sam didn’t leave our wedding until well over 12 hours of work and I can honestly say from now receiving our pictures ensured that they captured every tearful, love filled, drunken moment which sums us up as a couple perfectly! This is another reason why this isn’t just a job for them. For someone to stay for hours upon hours to ensure that they get all the shots they think are needed rather than clock watching is what makes these guys stand miles ahead of anyone else.

When we received our photos, we knew they would be good, as we had obsessed over Ben’s website before the wedding, but we were blown away by what we saw! I mean seriously blown away and was brought to tears by every single picture.

These are not typical still pictures. They are not made up of awkward positions that you are put in. They are pictures of your most natural form. Every single smile and laugh in a picture is real, it’s not staged for a picture. This is what makes Ben & Sam unique.They wants you to be at your most comfortable and simply be you with your loved one so they can capture the essence of what you are as a couple.

We feel completely privileged to have found Ben & Sam and for them to have agreed to be there at our day. They have truly made sure that we will never forget one second of our day and have brought to life all the happiness we felt.

Remember, the wedding day is only one day and it goes so incredibly quickly. Ben & Sam have ensured that our day can be relived for years to come and for that we are whole heartedly grateful.

These are two people you need involved on your big day. You couldn’t ask for any two better people to firstly have in your life but also help you on your day.

No amount of words can justify how good these guys are, and if you want to work with someone who can see as friends, then look no further. These guys care about making you seriously happy from the moment you meet them to second you get your photos and burst with happiness!

Ben & Sam thank you so so so so much for everything. We have a huge amount of love for you both for creating such incredible images of our day. These are irreplaceable to us and we can’t say thank you enough x x”

” We loved the photos on Ben’s website and knew he would produce the style of images we wanted to capture our special day. Ben really was superb! We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and would recommend him to everyone for their wedding. His friendly approach suited us perfectly and we were very happy to let his artistic experience and skills determine the shots. As well as producing some wonderful creative portraits of us, which we absolutely love, he also captured the beautiful, natural moments of us and guests enjoying ourselves. The day just flew by and we will treasure these photos and memories forever.”

” Wow Wowwwwww Ben! We have literally just finished looking through our pics – you have induced tears in both of us as well as jaw ache from all the smiles and laughter! Thank you both so so much – the photographs are just incredible! ”

Helen + Dan

” When I first saw Ben’s photos I was immediately struck by how creative and original they were, and looked no further for a wedding photographer. Even with very high expectations Ben & Sam managed to exceed them by taking the most exceptional photos!

From the initial meeting it was clear that Ben is a very passionate photographer, and would go the extra mile to get the perfect shot. He is also a lovely guy, so it feels like planning with a friend! He visited our wedding venue and spent an afternoon with us discussing what photos we wanted and walking around the garden/venue to figure out where the best spots were.

On the day Ben and Sam arrived early and travelled between venues to capture everyone getting ready and all the finer details eg flowers/ table decorations etc. We did not want to spend much time doing formal or posed photos, but they managed to fit it into our day and we had some fun moments getting some of my favourite photos in the fields behind the house. They managed to strike the balance of being directive without intruding at all. In fact, it really felt as though they were friends and wedding guests.

The final collection of photos blew us away. The photos and photo book are absolutely beautiful and one of the best collections I have seen. Friends have since used Ben as a photographer or tried to book him but he’s already booked up!

Booking Ben as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we made. He comes highly recommended!

Thank you so much Ben & Sam”

” We wanted Ben to be our photographer for our big day when we saw one of his pictures on Facebook that he did of a friends of a friend’s wedding. We’d never met him before, or even heard of him for that matter, but we loved the artistic shots he got with the couple looking so relaxed and wished for photos like that for our wedding. Since speaking to him initially via e-mail, he has been like a friend – always courteous, polite, enthusiastic. He came all of the way from Cambridge to meet us in London to discuss ideas and consider different points of view. Immediately, we felt at ease in his presence, and thought that he shared our views to how we envisaged our wedding photos to be – natural, artistic, relaxed. The pricing structure / packages he has are very reasonable and crystal clear – I was in no doubt about what we were getting, the pricing structure, when the deposit was due etc… Throughout the wedding, he fitted in really well. Being so relaxed, he made everyone around him feel comfortable. We never found that any of the photos were staged; there were no “cheese” moments or any stereotypical, tired, plain wedding photos. You could tell that he was constantly thinking about the photos, constantly moving to get the best shot; lying down, tiptoeing, moving in and out of shadows… he worked tirelessly! He listened to everything that we wanted – the groups, the locations, the people… – he even managed to capture some great moments with our dog! Before the big day, he did say that he’d wanted an hour with just the 2 of us at some point. During this time, we went off to the location that we wanted our photos together and he just worked around us. We felt like it was just the two of us, and we just chatted about the day and were able to catch a breath! Apart from a couple of prompts to move here or there, we nearly forgot that Ben and his assistant were there! The photos were absolutely fantastic – we couldn’t have asked for anything better. Everyone that has seen them has commented on how impressed they are with them. In fact, one of the guests from the wedding has already booked Ben for their big day in 2017! We were really happy that we had Ben to photograph our big day. I’d definitely vouch for the fact that he can be trusted to capture the most important moments of your big day and make you and your guests feel relaxed.”
