Well what can we say about John Scofield Photography. He was our wedding photographer and we could not have asked for anymore from him. highly professional and there supporting us before our day with recommendations and though out our day ensuring it went without a hitch, he made us feel so at ease and interacted with our guest, all of whom have said how good he was. we then come to the Photos. Wow they are amazing. With hundreds of photos we now have the hard task of trying to choose photos for our photo book. An award winning photographer who i could not recommend highly enough. we would defiantly book him again if an occasion arose.

John Scofield did the photography for our wedding in 2021 - and comes highly recommended by me.<br><br>He's a fun guy - getting you at ease, and making sure that the best and most natural shots can be got of the two of you. He's also great at working with other suppliers - we had a videographer who was not familiar with our venue; John kept them under his wing for the day and helped get the best out of them too.<br><br>Remember - wedding lasts a day - pictures last forever. This is not the part of your wedding you want to go budget for!

John captured our wedding day perfectly!<br>He was so helpful all the way through the planing and very understanding with all the changes we had to make to the dates and day due to covid. He made us both feel at ease on the day, he was very professional but so friendly, fitting into the day seamlessly!<br>John did everything and more to make sure our day ran smoothly, capturing every special moment and more!<br>He captured such a range of photos from us to family shots and shots of moments we didn't even know were photographed, which are so lovely to have! The photos are absolutely stunning!<br>Very talented photographer, so glad we had him to capture our special day!<br>Thank you so much John for everything!<br>Lucy and Tom

John was absolutely excellent. He made me feel at ease instantly, and understood what I needed and delivered it! It was very easy to arrange the photo shoot and he offered flexibility and a very reasonable price. I am really pleased with the end result. He's a talented photographer and such a nice guy which made the whole experience really enjoyable. Thank you John. Best, Felicity

We asked John to get some photos to hang on the walls in our clinic|(veterinary) and to be used on our website. The remit was dogs in motion exercising on the beach reflecting our name (Coast) and showing health and vitality! He did an amazing job capturing some great pictures of a very fast Pointer on the beach near us...not an easy ask. Thanks John the photos are great and we get regular praise from clients about them !

We have been overjoyed with our images that John captured of our day. John was the most professional yet friendly guy and we are so very grateful for all of his hard work. We shall forever be able to look back at our special day in our wonderful album. Thank you so much John!

Married in August of 2019, John was every superlative I can think of. He was thoroughly professional and wonderfully friendly. He took some simply stunning photographs that we will hold dear for our entire lives, while managing to stay unobtrusive. When it came to trickey group shots, he charmed even the pricklier family members and made the whole thing enjoyable and seamless. I have recommended him to everyone since. If you're looking for a wedding photographer who "just gets it", look no further, you've found your man.

Worked with John many time now and he's is highly regarded in the industry, friendly, easy going, fun and professional with an outstanding eye for detail. The main vital components that make photographers in this field outstanding to their couples

When looking for a photographer for your wedding day you want them to be; professional, seamless, friendly and fundamentally able to provide high quality photos.<br>John excelled in all these areas, prior to our wedding John asked us exactly what we would like, on the day his advice was second to none and we have just looked through our brilliant photos.<br>5 star review from someone who can be a sceptic, we will be using John for some family shoots hopefully in the coming months. Outstanding service and a gentleman.<br>Thank you John,

We were told to book your photographer early and we are glad we did. John was incredible from the preparation to the day itself. He had everything under control and put us and our guests at ease resulting in great shots. John was always ready with him camera to capture that special moment. His photography is breathtaking, the only problem we have now is to try and find 60 of our favourite pictures out of the 650 that he produced for us. John felt more of a friend than someone you hire and we could not recommend his work and his professionalism enough. If you do not book John early than you will be left with second best.

John took care of an engagement photo shoot for us on Eastbourne beach. He suggested a range of local places which he knew would work well in advance, but was also happy to use any different locations we suggested. We decided to go with one of the locations he suggested, and he definitely knew what he was doing. The location and time of day was perfect, and he subtly directed us through a few settings over the course of about an hour. He then emailed us high resolution copies of the images really quickly afterwards. I would definitely recommend John for any future photo shoots - it's a difficult job arranging normal people who hate having their photos taken, but he was professional throughout and the photos he's given us are amazing.

We could not recommend John highly enough, he was absolutely fantastic to work with and the work he produced was truly impressive and produced life long memories for us and our family on our wedding day.<br><br>John was super when organising people and group shots on the wedding day, he was friendly and effortlessly able to get everyone into those large group shots when needed and required no micro management from us which really helped produce natural photos to capture the day.<br><br>John was a self starter and very proactive on the wedding day, he came down well in advanced of our booking start time to checkout the location in further detail and captured some great candid shots before the wedding ceremony began.<br><br>The post production and post wedding customer service was equally fantastic, our photos arrived very promptly to us via his mobile app and online gallery. We also opted for the large A3 photo book which was a very high quality item of work and a great way to present our best photo's - if you have the option to purchase this I would strongly advise this also as it's a great memento of the day.<br><br>- We would recommend John to anyone!<br><br>D & L Martin.

My wife and I cannot speak highly enough about the dedication and professionalism that John provided for our special Wedding Day! If you want the perfect Wedding Day photos with traditional shots along with something individual and quirky, we would have no hesitation in recommending John Schofield.<br>Our wedding was in August 2016 and we first met John in the February. He met us at our chosen hotel venue. His enthusiasm came across instantly as he proceeded to show us his portfolio. Not only was he a likeable cheeky chappy, his work was top class too, and we instantly knew that John would be able to capture our special day in the best way possible.<br>We next met up with John three weeks before the wedding when we discussed in more detail about the type of photos we would like taken. My wife and I gave our input about our specific requirements and then John talked to us about his great ideas, taking into consideration our wonderful seafront location and its panoramic views. His expertise and knowledge proved to be invaluable and was most definitely reflected in the final results.<br>What also impressed us about John was that he agreed to meet me at the venue the day before our wedding (the weather conditions were due to be very similar to the next days forecast) and he took some demo shots in various locations around the hotel to ensure the lighting would be correct for the type of shots we wanted taking. Now that's dedication!<br>The day of our wedding arrived and my groomsmen and I were promptly met by a smiling photographer at the agreed time. We were all naturally a little on edge as John took us onto the seafront to start snapping. All our anxieties rapidly disappeared as he put the Fun element into the shoot and he was able to capture some really natural shots along with some original ones which made for really great viewing.<br>The same applied after the ceremony when my wife and I went out and about with the bridesmaids. The fun and laughter blended in with the seriousness which was more than helped by a beautiful sunny day with clear blue sky.<br>During the half day John spent with us, he was absolutely everywhere...and I mean everywhere. He took pictures I never even knew he had taken. My wife was particularly pleased as John had perfectly captured the beauty of her amazing wedding dress, highlighting some of the more intricate detail. Again she had no idea of this until she saw the photos. Well done Sir!! Bonus points there!<br>John, from the bottom of our hearts, Alison and I would like to thank you for all your hard work, professionalism and dedication. The results are truly amazing, and we would have no hesitation in using your services again, or recommending you to other people. Many many thanks.

SHORT REVIEW (for those of you, like me, with children, who don’t have time to read these things) – TOTALLY AMAZING & AWESOME, GO ON & BOOK JOHN, YOU WONT REGRET IT.<br>Below is the long version, for reading with a cup of tea.<br>This review is extremely late, (2.5 months after our wedding!), not because I didn’t want to write one, but because I lead a chaotic life and haven’t had more than a nano second of peace from the children in which to write it properly. Apologies John…<br>My husband and I are both very photo shy and so the thought of having a wedding and being photographed all day long wasn’t particularly appealing to us. I just wanted a few decent shots of our family and friends together and a photo album we could look back on in many years to come and exclaim over how nice we all looked, how young we all looked, who was there with us and who is still alive!<br>So I trawled through many photographer websites, most of whom were only offering a whole day package for a serious amount of cash. We had already blown our budget so didn’t see the value in paying for shots of us totally plastered or passed out on in the bar at the end of the night (my friends captured that AND put it on Facebook). Nor did I particularly want any shots of me eating my dinner or getting ready. I can look in a mirror to see how rubbish I look before the make-up goes on.<br>John offered a half day package, which was 2 hours more than enough for us. Or so we thought…<br>We met John at our hotel venue and both of us instantly liked him. He is a friendly and generous person and we all sat and had a chat about what we wanted (Us- 5 shots. Him – loads and loads of great ideas).<br>John listened patiently to all the quirks I had detailed for him regarding my rather strange family situation without even a chuckle. Think ‘Eastenders on acid’ and you are half way there…<br>Needless to say, after an hour or so John was now booked in for the whole day and a great big fat photo album afterwards. Not through any badgering at all on his behalf I hasten to add. Just from us realising that if we were to do this we wanted to do it properly and not miss out on capturing moments that we would later regret. And we liked him so much, we left really looking forward to seeing him again on the day.<br>So, THE DAY… John was just everywhere. Amazing really. But not in your face. Just in the background capturing memories for us. He did take some shots of me in the room before I went downstairs, that at the time I didn’t really appreciate, as I was so stressed about being late. But afterwards I was so very glad he did it. Because the dress and my face looked great in those shots. And he KNEW that, of course as he is the professional that he is. Then the wedding went by so quickly and I got teary (very teary, mascara running down my face teary) and it poured with rain all afternoon and the dress got messy, then we started drinking and never really stopped. But all the time he was there and we were so very grateful.<br>A great thing he did was hand round an IPad, for anyone who wished to leave their email. They could then log in to an online gallery of photos and download for free or order prints of whichever ones they wanted. Genius!<br>His photos are totally amazing, so go on and hire him for that. But if you hire John you also, for no extra cost at all, get a supportive friend by your side for what is the most important day of your life. So many times he checked I was OK and I really appreciated it. He was so friendly to everyone, all my guests commented how nice he was.<br>Today he delivered our book of photos. To describe it as a book doesn’t do it justice. It is a huge leather box, inside of which is a heavy leather book with thick card pages full of beautiful photos of our perfect day from start to finish. He has worked so hard on this, adding in photos we didn’t pick, to create the perfect whole memory of our special day.<br>We love you John! Thank you so much for the TOTALLY AMAZING job xxx Lucy & Marc McCall-Edwards.

John was simply superb! He produced the most fantastic photos that we will treasure forever. He obviously listened to every word we had said, as the pictures were precisely what we wanted, and also came up some very intuitive and impulsive photos that we absolutely love. He certainly has an eye for detail and is great guy to have around. He could not be more helpful. We thoroughly recommend him. Thanks again John.<br>Mike and Anna.

Johns photography was simply stunning. He created images that we will treasure and I can't recommend him enough. He was recommended to us by some friends and he simply goes the extra mile. He's a lovely guy and has the creative ability to make the most of situations that most of us would worry about. He also produced an amazing photo book for us that told a fabulous story of the day's events in such a natural way. I have already recommended him to friends who have had the same results. Thank you John and good luck for the future.
