Nathan was hands down one of the best things about our wedding. He was absolutely wonderful from start to finish- recommending other suppliers to us, being incredibly calming, and even making sure I didn’t keel over from lack of food on the day! He slotted in so well and we’ve had so many comments from all of our guests about how kind and funny he was, and to top it off, our photos are absolutely beautiful. Thank you for everything Nathan!

We had originally booked a different photographer for our wedding but changed to Nathan after seeing him in action at another wedding we were at! And what a great decision this was! Nathan was great on the day, he made sure he spent enough time to get those photos that you dream of looking back on but a the same time we felt that we had plenty of time with family friends and each other! The end result? Outstanding a huge amount of photos all finished to the highest standard! We will enjoy looking back on them for years to come!

If you’re looking for a friendly, experienced and incredibly talented wedding photographer then Nathan is your guy. We’re so thankful for the part he played in our day and for capturing beautiful moments in such a discreet way. Cannot recommend enough!

Nathan was incredible from start to finish, we originally met him at a friend's wedding and when planning knew exactly who we wanted to contact for our special day! He had such a great presence and made taking photos fun and relaxed. We were keen for some natural photos and he captured these perfectly. He was perfect with our flower girl and making her laugh too! He was also great at knowing lots of little hints and tips throughout the day and really helped with keeping everything organised which was a great help! We couldn’t recommend Nathan more! Getting our photos back made us relive a very special day and we can’t thank him enough!

Nathan is just fabulous. We are so glad that we chose Nathan to capture our day. He was absolutely fantastic from the start, he made everyone feel comfortable and was a pleasure to have with us. All our guests commented on how lovely he was. Fast forward to the photos and we were just blown away with how well he captured the day. The photos are what's left and we look forward to retelling our magical story again and again......Thank you Libra Photographic!!

Nathan is brilliant. We hired him after he did my sisters wedding back in 2021 and did an amazing job. He did a great job for our wedding in every way. The photographs provided were all amazing, and we and our guests loved having him around on the day. He was always in place to get the right shot. He also gave good directions on posing for a photos and was able to make us laugh and relax, which was useful for us as we don't usually pose for photos

This guy was absolutely brilliant, went over and above, photos were incredible and they guy was a pleasure to have at our wedding. I could not strongly recommend enough. There is no way that I can think you won't have the best experience with Nathan. One of life's true, honest and lovely gentlemen.

Nathan is not only a fantastic photographer, with real passion for the art form; he is also someone who cares for his customers and genuinely wants to learn and understand what the bride and groom want from their wedding. He is totally committed to recording the experience that represents both the theme of the day, as well as the personalities of the bride and groom. It felt he was a guest, rather than a service we had paid for. He is a ‘behind the scenes’ star that needs to be celebrated! Thank you so much, Nathan – as we’ve mentioned on more than one occasion – YOU ROCK!!!

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do you stay at a wedding?
This really depends on the time of year but usually between 10 and 12 hours. June & July when the days are long the option to add a few more hours may be neccasary to capture those late summer evenings.
How soon after the wedding will we receive our photographs?
During the height of the wedding season it can take up to 6 weeks to receive your final gallery but there is always a little sneak peek at your photos before the final delivery. I understand that everyone wants to see them and you want to create thankyou cards. I quite often turn around a full gallery in half that time though.
