RAVES, REVIEWS, AND London WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER RECOMMENDATIONS
Julia and Mark
Photo by Damion Mower
The 'newlywed' shots are simply stunning - it's hard to choose which to frame. In my view, the photos are one of the most important parts of a wedding because they inform many of your memories for years to come. When we look back now, and when we look back in the future, the photos will instantly bring back the warmth and happiness we felt on that perfect day in Provence. And for that, we can't thank you enough, Damion.

We were so fortunate to have found you, you were absolutely fantastic at documenting our wedding day in exactly the style we were looking for. You were brilliant at making everything look natural, even got me to smile on camera, which is a feat in itself! Looking back at our photos you have captured the buzz and the genuine emotion in everyone, I can't help but smile every time I look at them. My friends and family were thrilled to have you with us on the day, all mentioning how lovely, unobtrusive and polite you were. You couldn't have made a better impression and it was an absolute pleasure to have you document our wedding, we truly can't recommend you highly enough! "
Gabbi & Karl
Photo by Tori Deslauriers
Dear Tori, Thank you, thank you, thank you! We love all the photos. You captured so many beautiful moments and it's such a wonderful reminder of a special day. The pictures were just in the style that we wanted; capturing people enjoying all aspects of the day rather than lots of posted shots which show who was at our wedding but not showing the mood or atmosphere of the event. We really love the pictures and look forward to reliving our wedding day many times over in the years to come. Thank you again for such an amazing collection. Love from Gabbi & Karl xxx
