Can't rate Nathan at 3M Photography enough!!
He moved with us to a different date, as our wedding was due to take place on the day on the lockdown 2.0!!
We pulled it all off the day before... And Nathan has taken amazing photos of our ever so perfect day! Our hearts were melting after seeing just a couple of them from the bid day!
Just amazing so we will booking him again next year!

Hi
Cliff turned up on time and was unobtrusive and polite with guests. I think he could have been a bit more proactive in getting groups together to smile for the camera. I can't really comment on this yet though, as the photographs haven't come through on the website.
He was dressed a bit on the casual side for our liking. A crisp clean shirt would have been nicer than the grey baggy polo shirt he turned up in, but perhaps he does this to blend into the background. A black crisp cotton shirt would have done the trick.
Anyway, let's see what the photos are like and it was nice to know that someone was recording the event for us.
Thanks for organising, best regards, Diana

"Cliff was absolutely smashing. We booked him as slight matter of urgency, with our event (a university Spring Ball) only a few weeks away. His very competitive price made him stand out - he was over £100 cheaper than the other quotes we received!
His quality of service was anything but cheap. He took plenty of wonderful, high-quality photos for our event. We had booked him for 2 hours, but when he learnt that the event's main attraction (a casino) was only going to open after he finished, he stayed longer to take some great photos of guests enjoying the casino - at no additional cost! He was also happy to take photographs for us even though the event coincided with his birthday!
As well as taking some fantastic photos, he complied with all our requests for different invoices, public liability insurance certificates etc.. He was happy to be paid in cheque, our only method of payment. He processed the photos very quickly following the event and put them online on a very accessible platform where guests can view them, download them, upload them to Facebook and purchase physical prints.
Overall, Cliff is an outstanding photographer who offers his services at such a great price. He is also a genuinely nice bloke and happily interacted with the guests as well. I would highly recommend him."

"Nick was great! A real professional who turned up early and was a pleasure to work with.
Very personable with myself and guests and blended in nicely without disrupting any part of the event.
Having received the photos just a week after my parents 40th wedding anniversary event my whole family love the pics and the creative liberties Nick took.
I will be using and recommending his services again.
Job well done! Thanks Nick for contributing to a very special day for my family."

My style is candid and casual with a focus on looking for that spark between guests and capturing it for you to look back on time and time again. I love to get to know your guests while not stealing the light from your event. I will be hidden when I can be while making myself known enough that everyone feels comfortable being caught on camera.
