All bespoke pricing ensures you can get what YOU want from your wedding day photography, rather than just choosing from what a supplier offers...

Jon. **Warning** Jon chats to guests, has been known to tell corny jokes, and has a tendency to pinch sausage rolls from the buffet..... :)

Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Jon Byles Hardman
Hi. A wedding can be a massively stressful operation ! My aim is to provide a friendly and fun service from booking until way past the wedding itself. I offer a truly personable service and will go the extra mile to look after you. (I recently made a 2 hour round trip to collect some confetti the night before a wedding, as the brides hadn't turned up ! ) Would every photographer do that ? Really hope to speak to you soon. Jon.

So easy to work with

I was booked to make a short video of the couples 1st dances. I found Jon very easy to work with. Unlike some photographers, he was very keen to chat with me beforehand, so we were both able to complete the job together, rather than trying to work individually. Jon is great with the guests, and seems to make everyone feel at ease very easily. I hope to work with Jon again in the future

Happy Bridesmaid

Jon was the photographer at my Mum's wedding earlier this year, where I was a Bridesmaid. He was with us all day from preparations to the evening reception. He is naturally a people person, and we welcomed him not only as a brilliant photographer, but as part of the special day itself. He goes out of his way to ensure everyone is happy. He engaged brilliantly with the children at the wedding too, and was able to capture some fantastic natural pictures for this reason. He managed to find the perfect balance between giving direction and ensuring the day wasn't interrupted. Very professional, very personable and would highly recommend him to anyone.

John was a photographer for a wedding which didn't exactly go all to plan due to caterers not turning up. This made me and my wife to be at the time late for her own wedding. When I finally got there I was worried and panicking over catering and time. John was right there to greet me and to have a quick chat with me and straight away calmed me write down and made me feel at ease. John had helped with rearranging the wedding meal with family members. John was very professional and took some stunning photos of our wedding and even had a beautiful eye for capturing pictures you would not have thought of. After the wedding was done John was mean of finished, but instead came back with us 2 the venue and continued to take more stunning pictures. John Spence a lot more time then we booked him for to make sure we had enough pictures of the day. We was so impressed we asked John to stay for the wedding meal as he had gone so far out of his way to make our special day. Even after the meal John still hung around taking photos and all the time engaging with friends and family. Everyone at the wedding commented how brilliant John was and how friendly he and how friendly he was fully he is. On a side note John also did a photo session brought for my birthday from my wife of me and my son. But John being the fantastic photographer he is decided to take family photos as well which made this experience so much more. as John has been so brilliant I have even recommended to a friend which has now booked him for a photo session.

Highly recommend

I attended Kez & Chris’s wedding earlier this year, where John was the photographer. The rain on the day didn’t help matters, but John didn’t worry. He produced a number of umbrellas that he had brought with him “just in case”. The pictures he got of the sunset when the rain finally stopped were amazing. He has a great personality, and I would be more than happy to recommend him to anyone

5 star wedding

I was a guest at Kerry & Chris’s wedding. It was obvious that Jon is a people person as well as a great photographer. He made everyone feel very much at ease, and it felt like he was more part of the wedding than the photographer. I’d have no hesitation in recommending him to any of my friends.

Fun and professional

I have worked with John for a wedding, and felt comfortable straight away. Not too in your face like some photographers I have worked with in the past. You wouldn’t notice that he wasn’t part of the wedding party though!

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

EVERY wedding is memorable for different reasons, and I've been privileged to work at some amazing venues. From a Scottish Castle wedding (with no roof - yes it rained! ) to racing across a golf course with a bride and groom in a golf buggy !

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Friendly. Professional. Artistic. Fun. Visionary

What about your business are you most proud of?

The personable touch. I've stayed in touch with virtually all the couples I've worked with. I love the fact that they get to know me, and trust in what I do.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

On your wedding day - EVERY hour - disappear with your new husband/wife or 5 minutes, and have some alone time. It goes SO fast on the day - take time for you, and to enjoy the day

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

Probably the most unusual was the Nigerian wedding I photographed recently. I received a towel as a "favour" with the couples faces printed on it :) Plus their first dance involved them being showered with Nigerian dollars A real personal and unusual touch

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Get the proposal together Agree the package Meet up and have a chat about the day - AND take some informal "pre-wedding pictures" Stay in touch constantly before the wedding. Plan every detail so the wedding day goes by without issues, and without me having to keep asking what is happening next Quickly edit a handful of pictures within 48 hours so you can use them on social media, or for thank you cards. Fly edit the rest of the photos and put them onto your online gallery to share, download etc Receive your personalised USB drive with all your images on Discuss albums and prints if you'd like them STAY IN TOUCH :)

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

I think there are several, from the 1st look, to the 1st kiss, to the 1st dance - but it's sometimes the natural candid pictures that really tell the story

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

I've been asked to take pictures on a carousel before now - which is always good when you suffer from dizzy spells....

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Well, I carry around 10 clear umbrellas in the boot of my car to EVERY wedding. you never know what may happen ! If it does rain - don't let it worry you. Go with it - there are some exceptional pictures that can be taken in the rain (or just after)

Describe how you got into photography.

I've always loved photographing landscapes and sunsets from an early age, and used to pinch my dads camera (yes the old 35mm film one) I soon realised that this was the profession for me - but it took a while before I was able to take the plunge and do this full time (kids, family and a mortgage meant a lot planning !) However, it was the best move I ever made
