WORDS FROM REAL COUPLES

 

JAKE & SOPHIE - NEW HOUSE FARM

 

We cannot rave enough about Adam. From the first conversation and his portfolio online we knew he was the one we wanted.

The colours on his pictures are amazing. Adam made us feel so relaxed and we trusted him with everything. He was always on hand to answer any questions we had. He blended in perfectly with our wedding guests who said how lovely and attentive he was but how he wasn’t making it about him.

The sneak peak of his pictures had us spending a whole day of our honeymoon looking over them. The initial reaction is "wow" but as you zoom into each photo you discover more every time. Thanks so much Adam. The best photographer we could have imagined.

 

CALUM & CHARLOTTE - LOW HALL THE LAKES

 

If you're looking for a photographer, who's beyond brilliant look no further!

Adam went above and beyond on our wedding day and captured every single moment to perfection. Even when I ruined a planned surprise by being in the wrong place at the wrong time, Adam was there like he had a sixth sense and still managed to capture the moment! There was no standing about waiting for group shots and the ones we wanted were done in such a fun laid back manner it just felt like another special moment in our day!

He was great with our dogs, even though I didn't know they were coming, Adam was prepared with balls to get the best shot! He spent way longer with us on the day than I'd expected and didn't miss a single shot all day! Honestly can't thank him enough!

GEORGE & STEPH - LONG ACRE BARN

 

We are so pleased that we found Adam to take our photos for our wedding.

A photographer is such an integral part to a wedding day and we were unsure how to know who to choose. Having had a phone call with Adam after our enquiry, we felt certain that Adam would be the man for the job! We felt that he came across incredibly professional, hard working, and made us feel that our wedding photos would be personal to us.

On the wedding day, Adam was the "invisible man" yet has captured every beautiful spontaneous moment. The photos are stunning and very artistically done. We were also blown away with how quickly we received a first glimpse at our album. Thank you so much for giving us this gift that we can cherish forever.
George and Steph the new Mr and Mrs Mitson!

 

PAUL & LAUREN - DALSTON HALL

 

Adam you are an absolute super star!

We were so fortunate to be able to book Adam to capture our very special day. From the very beginning Adam was so helpful giving us top tips leading up to our wedding. On the day of the wedding Adam arrived well before hand to ensure he captured all the special moments running up the ceremony. His positive laid back approach was a breath of fresh air! He kept reminding myself and my husband that it was OUR day and to do what we wanted. All our guests made comments afterwards at how good Adam was and what a gentleman he was. We have received our photos 📸 very quickly and we are totally in love with them, they are absolutely stunning and majority are natural moments between loved ones ❤️

I highly recommend booking Adam for any events, you will not be disappointed with his work or his personality! He really was outstanding! Thank you again Adam for capturing our special memories that will last a lifetime ❤️

 

JO & JESS - THREE HILLS BARN

 

Where to start with Adam, what an unbelievable wedding photographer.

Cannot stress enough the level of calm, organisation and overall control of the day that he provided. Not only did he capture gorgeous photos, but he wasn’t afraid to step in and take control at certain points of the day - which we really needed and appreciated! He is really experienced and knowledgable, so his help was really valued.

He managed to capture all the fun and love of our wedding day in such a brilliant way. I had a previous photographer booked who let me down due to a double booking, and I’m so glad that happened.

The amount of effort Adam put in to the whole day was amazing. If you’re considering booking him, you will not regret it at all!

JORDAN & MILLIE - HIDDEN RIVER BARN

 

Where do I start with Adam. Adam was the most amazing person to share our special day with.

From the very beginning Adam went above and beyond. To say me and my partner had no idea what we were doing when organising our wedding was an understatement, but Adam was always happy to respond to my confusing emails about all kinds of things. Me and my partner thought we were going to look so awkward but Adam managed to make us feel so comfortable the whole day and managed to capture the most beautiful photos of us. Not only that, but helped us all throughout the day coordinating what to do from cutting the cake to our first dance. We could not have done it without him! Unfortunately, someone even bumped into Adams car mid photoshoot, and he still had his whole focus on us regardless of this. Adam we cannot thank you enough for everything, you were truly the most amazing photographer we could have ever asked for.

ADAM & TAYLOR - THE HALSTON

 

The! Best! Photographer!! We chose Adam for his candid creativity and way his images capture the atmosphere and emotion in every picture. An additional bonus is how bloody lovely he is. We booked Adam in 2019 and sadly postponed our wedding to 2022. Although the circumstances will hopefully be one in a million, it really demonstrates how flexible and helpful Adam is. He kept in touch regularly and made sure that we were organised and ready for our big day without it being overwhelming.

He captured every single moment of our day perfectly. Adam was so lovely, helpful and we didn’t really notice him throughout the day! The day was relaxed and we couldn’t have felt more comfortable and natural in front of the camera. I can’t imagine that the photos could be any better than what they are. Our guests, family and the strangers we insist on showing all our pictures to are equally obsessed with the final product.

We cannot thank Adam enough for everything he did for us. If we do ever get married again, we would certainly not hesitate to ask him to be our photographer all over again! We are obsessed!!

 

JONNY & CHANTEL - HIDDEN RIVER BARN

 

If you are like us and found Adam's work on social media and have ended up checking out the reviews to make sure he isn't too good to be true. Then trust us, just book Adam before you miss out and you will not regret choosing him to shoot your wedding day.

We got married at Hidden River Barn in August and booked Adam almost 18 months before our big day. From the day we filled out the contact form on his website, Adam was quick to respond and from that very first email reply we got a really good vibe. Not long after we arranged a telephone consultation, he was super friendly, put zero pressure on us and he completely put our mind at ease. His photography style and relaxed approach alongside his personality made it one of the easiest decisions we had to make to go ahead and book him to shoot our day. In the run up the wedding Adam's communication was excellent throughout, rather than one sentence responses Adam replied to my essays with his own. This was massively appreciated especially towards the end when general wedding planning stress levels were high and he always very reassuring. On the day itself Adam was exceptional. On an extremely bright and sunny day he made the suggestion to switch around the order of the day to allow for the best lighting for our photos. He was more than happy to stick to our original plan but we fully trusted Adam and we're now so glad we did as the lighting in our photos from our evening couple session is incredible. Any part of the day where we were had photos just the two of us it was never awkward or uncomfortable and as two people that aren't crazy comfortable in front of the camera it felt surprisingly easy.

Adam was with us from the getting ready moments in the morning and stayed with us right up until the party had started, capturing some unforgettable moves on the dance floor. So many of our guests commented on how well he just blended in to the day, you never really knew he was there but he managed to capture so many beautiful natural shots of our family and friends. Receiving our Wedding Gallery was easily one of the most exciting days we have had post wedding. We kind of knew what quality to expect having seen photos from other weddings he had done but we honestly could not have been happier with our own!

SAM & CHELSI - HIDDEN RIVER BARN

 

The most amazing wedding photographer there is!!


Adam was the easiest supplier we dealt with, from making the booking to the day itself, Adam made everything super easy. His replies to emails are lightning fast, which makes planning all that much easier. We booked Adam for wedding date number one (Covid wedding) then unfortunately had to cancel for date number two as he was unavailable, but when we moved the date again there was no question of going back to Adam, and he made it so so easy even going above and beyond by honouring our original deposit and price.

His super chilled professional attitude fitted perfectly with our day. So many of our guests commented on how lovely the photographer was, his patience with the dogs and little ones was amazing, and it goes without saying that his photos are just incredible.

He made us feel so at ease for our couples pictures that we were both a little nervous about, and we can't believe how good they look. He has such an eye for capturing the most beautiful natural moments, and the photos we have really do reflect the beautiful day it was. We honestly could not recommend Adam enough! Thank you Adam!!

 

SCOTT & KADY - THE BELSFIELD

 

Adam was such a fantastic photographer, I actually can’t put into words how good he was. Not only was he very professional but he was such a genuinely nice guy who made us feel very relaxed and at ease.

Most of the time you didn’t even know he was there snapping away in the background. There were no awkward moments at all and even our couple photographs turned out better than we could of imagined. We basically just went for a walk around the grounds with Adam but the images are like something from a film.

He captured everything possible from start to finish without being intrusive and the finished result is outstanding. Our guests have not stopped taking about how lovely Adam was and how brilliant his images are. Every time I go through the pictures I notice something else that I hadn’t noticed before.

His photography style is perfect, all the unexpected images that I didn’t even know were being taken are my favourites. We were able to relive the day and remember all the moments and how much of a good time we all had. His pictures really do tell a story. Even people who weren’t at the wedding have commented on how amazing the photographs are and how they show what a great day we all had.

From the moment we booked Adam, I knew he would be brilliant, responding in detail to any questions we had. He was very attentive and really made sure that he understood what we wanted out of the day. Thank you so much Adam. We really did make the best choice in choosing you to be a part of our special day.

 

SAM & LUCY - ASKHAM HALL

 

Adam recently captured our wedding day and we can't put into words how lucky we feel to have found such an incredibly talented photographer. We've had no end of amazing comments from friends and family who are all so impressed, and say they've never seen such amazing photos. From the day we booked him, up to the wedding day itself (and beyond) he was so kind, professional and super responsive. He captured the day beautifully, and so discretely. His dad also attended as a second photographer and was equally talented. They worked so well together, and were both an absolute pleasure to have around on the day.

We cannot thank Adam enough. He really does go above and beyond for his clients. Although we will be sure to recommend him to everyone we know, we doubt he will need to rely on this as his incredible work speaks for itself!

 

ADAM & ALEXA - ARMATHWAITE HALL

 

Adam photographed our wedding in July, and couldn’t have been better for the job. He made us both feel very relaxed from the start and managed to capture all emotions and every part of the day perfectly without disrupting anything. The wedding party and guests have all made comments about his beautiful photos including some hilarious action shots playing rounders!

Adam really was perfect for the job he listened to preference and took amazing pictures without any fuss or stress on the day. I’ve loved hearing all the feedback about my pictures. These were the quotes from the bridemaids when I shared the link to the preview “Captured perfectly. They look incredible”, “THEESE ARE SO GOOD”, “Omg they are gorgeous, love the shots and general madness of everyone”, “these are awesome photos” “Aww so good”. If we plan on having a big event again, our first job would be to check Adams availability

 

JAMES & GEORGIE - INN ON THE LAKE

 

We honestly couldn’t have wished for a better photographer! Adam was very informative on the run up to the wedding, and was interested in our needs for the big day. We were looking for a relaxed approach, where we could maximise our time with our guests and Adam made sure this happened.


He’s a really personable guy and made us all feel at ease throughout the day. The pictures are stunning and everyone had commented on how Adam captured the day perfectly from getting ready to the first dance. Adam provided us with a first glance within a couple of days, and the final gallery within a month alongside a special gift of a framed photo (and extra prints) which he kindly posted to us. Thanks so much Adam!

 

RYAN & CHARNA - HETLAND HALL

 

Adam is just amazing!

He knows how to interact beautifully and because of that we have ended up with the most precious wedding photo's. We had loads of candid shots and over 100 people and 20 children at the wedding, which he took completely in his stride!

All of our guests commented on how fantastic and attentive he was, not missing a single minute. We honestly cannot recommend Adam enough, and don’t think twice about choosing him as your wedding photographer, just book!

Adam was AMAZING - he went above and beyond and we are privileged he was part of our day. His natural, relaxed style fit perfectly with our day and so many guests came up to me to tell me how lovely Adam was and that they're the best wedding photos they've seen :) I can't praise Adam highly enough - he's a true artist.

I could not be happier! Now I’m finding it difficult to choose as everyone is to perfection. This guy certainly excelled beyond belief. Big massive thank you, felt like a princess and that was down to you Adam, all the guests wedding party was overwhelmed with the way you delivered our photos. A star, you captured the full beauty of Lodore Falls, Keswick.

Adam exceeded our expectations of what wedding photography can be. He delivered images of our day that capture the emotion and energy of us and our guests, the venue and the day perfectly. Adam was meticulous in his planning and delivery. He did exactly what we asked of him; to document our day naturally and unobtrusively. He achieved the right balance of documenting the day from a distance and guiding us to opportunities as and when they arose. We were initially reluctant to hire a photographer for our wedding day: however, hiring Adam is a decision we're both glad we made. The quality and extent of the beautiful images he captured now instantly transport us back to that day. Thanks again Adam.

Adam was absolutely brilliant throughout our special day. HE WAS smart, professional, understanding, kind and friendly. Adam talked us through all our options before our big day so that everything was super clear. It was straightforward to book Adam. We could not recommend Adam highly enough. We were blessed to have him capture special moments in our wedding day. Thanks Adam!

We could not recommend Adam enough!!! We recently received our wedding photos and they are amazing and more than we could have hoped for. The fact that for lots of them, our guests did not realise they were being photographed, has made for some of the best of the day and it totally captured everyone's happiness. For a wedding day photographer look no further than this young man he is fabulous at what he does and nothing is too much trouble for him.

Right from initial contact through to receiving our final photos, Adam showed true professionalism in his work but with such a relaxed and friendly manner. His style of photography was exactly what we wanted and the way he went about it on the day was amazing, we couldn't have asked for anything more! Captured our day perfectly! Thank you Adam.

We chose Adam because we really liked his relaxed, candid approach. Not once was Adam trying to get us to do anything that felt forced, and he’s captured tons of our guests in fantastic moments. Adam was punctual, professional and prepared for anything, coming up with great shots that really capture the light and relaxed atmosphere that we wanted at our day. We can’t thank you enough, Adam!

PHIL & MARY

Adam is an amazing photographer! It was brilliant to see lots of moments captured that we didn't get chance to witness ourselves on the day. As someone who is less comfortable in front of the camera I would definitely recommend Adam, he made me feel really relaxed and just encouraged me to have fun and enjoy the day - most of the time I even forgot he was there! All the family are happy with the photos as many of the guests commented to me about what a nice guy Adam is. He was really a total pleasure to work with every step of the way!
