About

____________

Hi and Welcome to our Website.

Photography has been a part of my life for the best part of 10 years. Originally I starting on 35mm film with a Pentax given to me by my God Mother and I eventually moved on to a Canon 35mm SLR. Now I mostly shoot Digital (Canon still) although there are the odd Projects I still undertake using 35mm. The experiences I have gained over the years has been invaluable not only to me but to my clients also.

I approach my Photography from the perspective of everyday life, bringing a laugh and enthusiasm to shoots where possible and I hope you can see this reflected in my work.

Our Portrait, Band & Modeling Shoots are done at our Studios in Bridgwater, Somerset. However, we are hugely flexible Shoot anywhere you dare to dream. We've done shoots in many various locations, from Sunsets on beaches to disused/derelict Warehouses to forests to graffiti covered alleyways to cinemas & churches.

Weddings are a big part of our Business. Not only do we love doing them but we've had great feedback from previous Brides & Grooms who have recommended us to their friends and family. I do them with the aid of my Wife, Emily who is not only a Registered Childminder (see the links section) but is also a skilled Photographer and a brilliant people person. Having two of us enables one of us to focus on the shots that really need shooting while the other can get those small incidental shots. For Weddings we use a combination of the more modern Reportage Style of Photography mixed with Formal Style for the group shots. Doing both lets us capture those small, seemingly unimportant moments that the happy couple sometimes miss. The 'Candid' Photography is becoming more popular with couples wanting to see their friends and family having fun without the guests knowing they've even been Photographed most of the time which in turn brings out peoples true persona - real people, laughing, chatting and having a good time.

As one of our Brides put it:

"Our guests remarked how nice and friendly you both were and apart from the formal [group] photos no one really noticed you taking photos which was the point anyway!!!!"

After the Photoshoot or Wedding you will be able to view the Images in a private, password protected, Gallery on our Website. Once you have viewed the Images and are happy with them you can choose to print and pay for prints directly through the Website and/or opt to purchase all of the Images in digital format on CD/DVD including joint copyright with us (Prices for this option vary please contact us for the current Pricelists).

Gift Vouchers are available in three different amounts £15, £35 & £50 or for any of our Packages. Perfect for family or friends for any occasion.

A massive thank you for your professionalism and humour on Saturday! You both made us feel so as ease and made having photo's great fun!

Mr & Mrs Duncombe, Crewkerne, Somerset

Friendly relaxed photo session and fabulous photos - so good we got the lot. Now all I need is the wall space to hang them all!

Having had several professional photo sessions for my growing children I also noted that Justin also includes professional touch ups on the photos that you usually only get from very expensive studios - true value for money!

I had a look at your site and your wedding photos are really excellent!

Janet Murphy (Landscape Photographer), http://www.janetmurphyphotography.com

Really enjoyable experience for all of us. My wife and I didn't want to be in any of the photographs as just wanted some pics of our two girls!!! We were slowly convinced. Really glad we did, got some really good family shots. We were worried the girls would not want to be shot, they can be very shy at times, but Justin introduced a rocking horse, puzzles, funny hats and they were away, shouting, giggling having a great time. I would highly recommend the experience!

Neil Hannaford, Cannington, Somerset
