Wedding Speeches, B&W Photo. WPJA Award Speeches


We love winning awards for our images. Especially awards that are voted for by our peers in the Wedding Industry. I can remember when we started shooting weddings in 2010, that I couldn’t bring myself to call ourselves Award Winning Photographers. It’s meaningless unless you actually have some. But that all changed with our first Fearless Award in 2016. Since that time, we always like to enter a few of our favourite images into the competitions held by the top respected wedding organisations. These include Fearless, WPJ, ISPWP. These three being the biggest in the world.

Award Winning Hampshire Wedding Photographers

Awards are great – but Awards aren’t wedding photography. To truly judge a wedding photographers work, look for consistency and style over a number of recent weddings. That’s the true mark of great photographers, being able to reproduce superb work at every wedding regardless of the location, the weather or any other factors. Also – take a look of some of the reviews our couples have left for us over the years.

Natural, unobtrusive, story-telling wedding photography
