"Dash was absolutely faultless. From the moment of arrival I felt comfortable and relaxed. Having never had a photographer before I wasn't entirely sure what to expect (or what to do!), but I was guided in a completely non-intrusive way. All of my guests thought they were brilliant and I genuinely cannot wait to see the photos. I would not hesitate at all to hire Dash again and I cannot recommend them enough. :)"

"We didn’t want a very formal approach to our wedding photographs, as our wedding was deviating from the traditional format. Dash and his team fully embraced this, tailoring their suggestions and approach to match our day from start to finish. Dash went above and beyond to make sure we felt comfortable and were happy throughout, and we felt completely at ease, despite being two people not particularly comfortable in front of a camera. Many of our guests also commented on the approach to photography, they were impressed with the speed and openness to capture ad hoc photos throughout the day."

Professional and personal, Dash was a breath of fresh air! He did a fantastic job of keeping two usually very camera shy folk feeling comfortable and confident the whole day long. From our first point of contact Dash was always very friendly and approachable, nothing was too much hassle for him. Dash's passion shines through, and it's very clear to see he genuinely enjoys what he does. I would not hesitate to recommend Dash to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding/events. Thanks again!

Dash being our photographer was a significant part of why our wedding day was such a great day! We were worried because neither of us is photogenic, but throughout the day he and Steve took dozens of photos that flattered us, where we look happy, natural and relaxed. We also realised during the day that, when you hire a photographer, you’re not only looking for someone who can take amazing photos, you also want someone who interacts well with you and your guests; Steve and Dash have a ‘perfect’ demeanour for their job – assertive, but fun and friendly, meaning everyone enjoyed being part of the photos. They have an eye, and a good imagination, for great photo settings as well as those ‘natural’ moments. Then, to top it off, they had our photos to us just two days after the wedding! Could not have been better!

Simply cannot recommend Dash enough! From the very first contact he was nothing short of friendly, polite, professional and helpful. He was very responsive throughout the journey even just checking in from time to time with us - just to see how the planning was coming along and we found that to be so personable and helped build great rapport! What we both found was that he went out of his way to make sure we both felt comfortable in front of the camera and he was able to capture photos that reflected us as a couple - and also engaging with our 9 year old and letting her take some photos on his camera which made her feel very special! - something which for both myself and my wife found amazing! Further highlighted by the fact that we threw some curveballs his way on the day and asked for extra shots over and above what we had talked about initially and he was more than happy to accommodate these and was so flexible with his time and even made those who weren't comfortable in front of the camera feel at ease. All in all I would say do not hesitate to book Dash for your wedding - simply amazing and you will not be disappointed!

I would describe my signature wedding photography style as timeless, elegant with an emphasis on storytelling. I am always looking for authentic and natural moments throughout the day.
Based in County Durham, I offer luxury wedding photography across the UK and beyond. I regularly capture weddings at stunning venues throughout Durham, Northumberland, and Yorkshire, and frequently work in Cumbria and the Lake District. Available for nationwide and destination weddings, I bring a refined, artistic approach to every celebration—wherever your love story takes you.
I typically work alone, as my approach is discreet, intuitive, and well-suited to capturing the flow of the day without disruption. Working solo allows me to stay closely connected to the moments as they unfold. However, depending on the scale or logistics of your wedding, I may occasionally bring an assistant to help things run smoothly behind the scenes. While a second photographer isn’t usually necessary, one can absolutely be included upon request if you'd like additional coverage or perspectives throughout the day.
There’s no strict limit on the number of images you’ll receive. For a full-day wedding, you can typically expect around 600 to 700 carefully edited photographs—each one thoughtfully selected to tell the complete story of your day with elegance and authenticity.

"Dash put me at ease from our first conversation. He is approachable, friendly and super knowledgeable. He had previous experience of working at our venue. My now husband and all of our families got on with him like a house on fire. He worked tirelessly all day, he wasn't seen once without his camera in his hand. We are over the moon with the pictures and our album was sorted so fast. We had everything within weeks (not months like some other photographers). He deserves all his positive accolades and awards. I wish him all the best and much more success in the future."
