Blooming Photography Testimonials

I have to say I was very nervous about having my photo taken all day long but Ben could not have made us feel more at ease, he really did make our day even better and the memories are all there in black, white, colour and vintage! Ben you worked so hard surrounded by my huge family to capture really lovely, natural moments. We can't get over how good the shots of us together are and they will be part of our home forever. Thank you for making such an effort to get it all so right,

We hired Ben for commercial photos for our new website and we all totally agree with all the comments people have said about him making you feel relaxed and at ease. I would recommend Blooming Photography for anyone who wants a photographer for anything really so book him now I say!

I couldn't rate Ben highly enough. We married in August and asked Ben for documentary style of photos - not so many posed ones but capturing moments that we were too busy to see and that is exactly what we got. Ben was unobtrusive and yet somehow always there, I didn't feel like I was being followed round by the paparazzi but there's enough photos it seems I was. Most of all it was a pleasure to have him there. He chatted to friends and family made them all feel comfortable with him and got some absolutely stunning shots. I cried when i saw the photos they are the best keepsake I could possibly ask for from what was such an amazing day. Thanks again Ben.. As soon as we have tiny feet pattering we'll be back to see you.

Our photographer was one of the highlights of our wedding day! The photos Ben produced were of such an honest and beautiful quality, which could only have been achieved by his being so easy going and making ourselves and guests (especially the children) feel comfortable and relaxed. He was everywhere at once and managed to capture both the essential moments and some more creative and informal compositions. Many of our guests commented on his unintrusive professionalism but more so his people skills and enthusiasm. This made for a fun environment which eradicated every brides's dread of awkward family must have shots and those shy guests!

Ben was careful to consider our individual needs (he learned our family's names) and was keen to discover our tastes by meeting with us both at his studio and also at the venue. Our photos were ready to collect before we were home from our honeymoon and are a much loved reminder of our wedding day. We would readily recommend Blooming Photography as a trusted, professional and personal service.

Ben of Blooming photography attended our wedding as the official photographer. His friendly easy going manner made all the guests at ease, from the toddlers to the Great Grandparents. We have received many great comments from friends and family regarding Ben and his friendly approach. The style of photography Ben produces is a good mix of modern, quirky and traditional, formal and informal; his eye for detail is superb. Need a photographer – book Ben, quick! You won’t be disappointed!

We are extremely grateful to Ben for his help and support as well as his photography, not only on the day but in the buildup also. His ability to capture the moments with style and with a relaxed feel made our special day perfect. Anyone has married will know that as bride and groom you don’t get to see much of your day so it was wonderful to visit Ben on our return from holiday to go through the photos. The way it was presented to us was great as we were able to see the whole day unfold in chronological order which helped us to relive the day. We cannot thank you enough.

Ben was superb from the start, making us both feel genuinely comfortable, relaxed and confident in his ability to shoot pictures beyond a quality we’d imagined - he did not fail to deliver. The results were a stunning mixture of both formal and informal shots which completed captured our day. Ben is also very likeable, which should always be considered given the amount of time and impact the photographer has on the day – we would have been as happy to have Ben as a guest at our wedding for the day!

Thank you Ben for a truly professional service - you were so wonderful with my two children, one very hyper 2 1/2 year old boy and one tearful 11 month year old girl who got stagefright! Your endless patience and good humour were much appreciated and made the whole experience much more relaxing than I would ever have imagined. The end results were amazing - I found it very difficult to choose amongst all the fantastic shots you took - and everyone who comes to our house remarks on how great the photos are. Many thanks again.

I would highly recommend Ben - this was my first set of photographs and he made the whole process very easy and very relaxed - I am really happy with the results, thanks.

I recently visited Blooming Photography with my 23 month old son to abtain some surprise photos for my wife. The relaxed atmosphere and setting that Ben provided ensured that my son was happy to pose away and allow Ben to work his magic and produce some fantastic images that we will treasure forever. Thank you in particular for the quick turn around and the excellent professional service that you have provided.

Great service - made me look good and all done easily in a friendly way!

I really enjoyed the studio session. Ben was super friendly, creative and appreciative of my own ideas. I am delighted with my end products and would whole heartedly recommend Ben to my friends and colleagues.

Fantastic photo shoot for band promo. Felt very uncomfortable at the start, Ben was brilliant and made us feel at ease and very relaxed.

Ben was the model professional; effortlessly capturing the mood of the occasion and all the moments and characters that make a wedding so special. His relaxed and engaging style meant that everyone he met – from Godmothers to grannies – was put at ease, which in turn made it easier for him to take some excellent pictures. We think that Ben’s innate ability to get on so well with people, combined with his proactive approach and keen eye for a great picture, is one of the main reasons why he came away from our wedding with hundreds of beautiful and memorable photos.

When we returned from our honeymoon, Ben was extremely organised and he helped us immensely when it came to choosing images for the various photo albums we had ordered. His patience and creativity throughout this process, and his desire to work with us to achieve the best results, meant that what could have been a chore turned out to be a real pleasure. We couldn’t be more pleased with the results of all his hard work, and we know that our photos are a treasure we will return to again and again in the years to come.

Overall, Ben is an extremely talented and professional photographer with a gift for gauging the mood of an occasion. I would have no hesitation in hiring Ben again, and would heartily recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for their special day.

Ben managed to put us all at ease and produced a great family photo that even our teenagers thought 'cool'.

Thank you! Very strong images.....and a real delight to sit for you.

Jay & I cannot thank you enough for all of your help, time and advice with our wedding photos. We are so pleased with the outcome of the photos, you really captured the best day of our lives. Thank you again.

Totally blown away with the photo's - they are amazing! Thank you.

We approached Ben with an 11th hour request to photograph a building we had just re-branded. We were on a very tight deadline to produce the promotional material, ready for a launch party the following week.

Ben was incredibly accommodating, and made himself available for the following day. The photographs were excellent and met with the client’s approval, so much so that he also became the photographer for the launch event!

Ben is highly personable and professional and I have no hesitation in recommending him.
