Amazing photographer and photos

We absolutely adore our wedding photos from Arnie at Kensington Photographer. They are beautiful and captured our wedding day perfectly!
We couldn't believe how quickly we received our online gallery, it came two weeks after our wedding day which we both were over the moon with. Now we have to try and work out which ones to select for our prints, we love them all.

Mick was absolutely amazing from start to finish. He was a real gentlemen, not at all intrusive, and made us both feel so comfortable. He went above and beyond to get the best photos possible and we’re so pleased with the end result. We will cherish our photos for a lifetime.

Would definitely recommend!

We would definitely recommend the Kensington Photographer to anybody getting married. Mick was so organised and efficient- he worked quickly on the morning of our wedding to make sure we managed to get all of the shots we requested in our photography planner. He was great with our two young daughters who were flower girls which allowed him to get some great shots of them before the wedding. He went above and beyond during the day to make sure we had the most amazing pictures and made the most of the area around the venue. Whenever guests were taking their own photos Mick was right there every time to capture a professional one for them too. Numerous people have commented since on how fantastic our photographer was and how he didn’t stop all day. We were also sent a preview of our gorgeous photos on Christmas Day which made our Christmas- we absolutely loved them and we can’t wait to see the rest!
Thank you so so much!

Wow, I'm so glad we chose The Kensington Photographer!

Wow, I'm so glad we went with The Kensington Photographer for our wedding! We had Mick join us on our day, he was so professional and had the eye to get the perfect shot. All day he was there at the right moments ready to capture our guests having a good time, the heart warming hugs, even the silly things like my dad helping me with my shoes. Mick even lay on the wet Autumn ground at one point to snap the perfect shot - so much dedication!

During the lead up to the day, the staff were super helpful and gave us advice on the best times for arrival and talked through the possibility for extending the time so we could make sure we had all the pictures we wanted!

We received our photo gallery exactly 2 weeks after our wedding date and oh my, all the photos are beautiful. Mick managed to capture the magic of our day and wow it was an emotional roller coaster looking through them and remembering our day and how it was real and we didn't dream it all! He got all the little details of decorations, even ones I hadn't seen on the day whilst swept up in excitement and emotion, I'm so glad I get to see those again and really appreciate the work our florist and venue designers did.

Thank you so much to Mick and The Kensington Photographer team for being a part of our wedding and contributing to the magic that it will always hold for us, the photographs you have taken are and will be the perfect window into the perfect day that we can dive back into whenever we want too - thank you for that gift.

Amazing wedding photography!!

We had Mick from the Kensington Photographer as the photographer for our wedding. Mick was friendly and professional for the whole day and delivered some truly stunning photos that we will treasure forever. He mystically appeared at each location and just got on with the job always giving suggestions for good shots but allowing us to show our personalities too. We really enjoyed having Mick with us on our day and love the pictures we have received. Communication before the wedding was excellent! Thank you from Naomi and Tom!

I would leave zero if I could

I would leave zero if I could. We have had to change our wedding due to COVID and our venue closing due to financial pressures etc so unable to get the date booked at another place! Totally out of our control.

Not only is there no leeway with our deposit they were slow to get back to me. If you book with them just be careful in case anything like this happens. We gave them enough time to find someone else and has left us out of pocket. In the climate at the moment there should be something that should have been done especially with nearly eight months notice when they’ll definitely fill the slot!!

Most of our other suppliers have been understanding either refunding the whole amount or some, and this is not totally true as it happened to my friend before me and got her photography deposit back. Word of mouth can have an impact on the wedding industry too. You said you were full 30th July 2023….so you extra busy if you can get Sunday slots booked that far in advance and on a sunday! This is not a situation we wanted to be in, and this world is not going to change any time soon so I’m sure will hope to other couples. You look very popular so I’m sure eight months is more than enough time to find someone

Reply from The Kensington Photographer

Due to the nature of the wedding industry we have to have non-refundable deposits as weddings are booked well in advance and generally not at short notice. All wedding suppliers have the same policy in place, to help safeguard the Wedding Industry, especially in these challenging times.

When a wedding is cancelled or can’t go ahead for whatever reason apart from our own, we are not guaranteed to be being able to book that date again, and we probably turned away potential couples who wanted to book in advance as it’s very rare to get late bookings.

We book the whole day out for bookings and 100% commit to not letting anyone else have that date; therefore we turn away other bookings that would want the same date, the deposit ensures this commitment; and our contracts clearly state that all deposits are ‘non-refundable’.

In addition we charge, one of, if not the lowest deposit in The Wedding Photography industry at only £200, so if any couples have to cancel it’s not a fee as high as it could be.

We totally understand these are challenging times for everyone, and we are trying our best to be the fairest we can be, which is why our terms are clearly stated.

UPDATED response!

We never said we don’t have availability for 30th July 2023. We were told the new date is 30th July 2022 which we are fully booked for. However, we are still happy to transfer this booking and deposit to 30th July 2023 if this is the date, as we do have availability for this date.

Since the initial post, additional information has been added to state we said we were fully booked for 30th July 2023, this was not the case. We actually said we were available for 30th July 2023 and that we could transfer the booking and the deposit no problem. We were then told it’s actually 30th July 2022 and not 30th July 2023.

However the 30th July 2022 is fully booked. So unfortunately we couldn’t accommodate the new date.

We are trying our best and continue to accommodate everyone in these trying times, but unfortunately on this occasion with the time scales being on such short notice it has been difficult.

Most wedding suppliers are booked at least 1 year in advance so changing arrangements before that time period is always going to be a challenge.

Overall, we are still happy to transfer this booking and deposit to 30th July 2023 as we do have availability for this date.

Magnificent Mick...

After winning a competition and seeing the reviews and final pictures I am so so happy I bit the bullet and and chose Jason and the TKP team.

Due to COVID there wasn't any face to face meeting but the initial phonecalls were great and he was always reachable. To say we didn't have any face to face meeting he chose the right the right person that fit our perfect day!

We had Mick to photograph our day and I would just like to say how perfect and easy he made everything! He gelled with the family so so well and was making everyone laugh and smile and he was awesome at directing us getting out best angles. He had a job on getting my husband to smile as he's just not the photograph type and we have some amazing pictures of him.

Above all of this, Mick actually went above and beyond for us to the point he was knocking on the venue neighbours doors to see if we could use some woodland and getting the best times for the sun set pictures.

All of our guests all complimented him and said he knew what he was doing and he was a great guy. They still talk about him now after the wedding.

When I received the pictures I have never been in such awe! He really knows how to capture the moment and those extra special moments! Also, he was really smartly dressed and fit in with the wedding guests so nobody even knew he was there!

Thank you so so much TKP and Nick!

Maybe a Cyprus baby shower photography session is on the cards! 🥰🥰

Thank you,

From the first communication with Jason and right through to our special day and even to receiving our photographs. We cannot speak highly enough. Nothing has even been too much trouble, we feel like we were really listened to which is reflected in our photos that we have received. Mick was our photographer on our day, just wow!! He took the time to explore the hotel and their grounds, he captured simply the most beautiful photos. Memories that will last a lifetime, thank you so much!!

Myself and my husband were really nervous at the thought of having our photo taken, Mick had us both at ease and we felt like we had known him for years. We’ve had so many compliments of our photos and also from our guests of the attention to detail that Mick has. Our photos are just beautiful.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts ♥️

10/10 Wedding Photography

Overall The Kensington Photographer has just provided the best wedding photography service. From initially winning the runners up prize for the Platinum package to Jason’s phenomenal response times to then Drew (our photographer), who was amazing. He was so friendly, he fit in with all of our guests, took the time for all our family shots and went the extra mile by staying longer to get more pictures in the evening.
We are so thrilled with how the photographs have come out, they are exactly what we wanted and then to have the lovely box with the prints and memory stick in is a very nice touch.

Simply the best

Simply the best. Couldn't ask for a better service!

We had the absolute pleasure of Emily as our photographer. She was excellent in every way, her professionalism, mannerisms and just pure talented!
She listened to what we want and didn't want for example my teeth on my right is the better side. She helped with the little things like fixed my hair and made sure every detail in the photos were flawless.
Emily was so kind and understanding, I didn't want her to leave when haha.
My family aren't the easiest to 'tame' yet she was great to help gather everyone and speak to everyone politely.
Honestly though, the photos exceed their expectations. I love the wooden box that comes with it too! just so rustic and elegant.
I came across Kensington on FB and received a £500 off, it felt like it was too good to be true and I must admit I was anxious incase no one turned up however, no need to panic. the professionalism this company has is just spot on! oh and not to mention the 2 week turn around for my photos! ( I love telling everyone that).

Best Wedding Photos Ever!

I came across The Kensington Photographer on Facebook and loved the aesthetic their page had, the photos looked effortless and were stunning! I actually entered a competition they were running and won second prize, which was a £500 voucher off their wedding package which was a bonus! Up until the day, Jason was fab on the admin side, he answered all of my questions - and there was a lot - all in a timely manner. On the day we had Emily as our photographer, she was amazing, so professional and so kind! She helped lay out my dress, told people where they needed to be and was just amazing generally throughout the whole day. I hate my teeth and I'm very conscious of my appearance yet the photos Emily took were stunning and really highlighted the best parts about myself! She captured the mood of the day wonderfully and got lots of natural and candid moments which are lovely to look back on. Everyone who attended the wedding complimented Emily on how lovely she was and how beautiful the photos turned out! Would 100000% recommend The Kensington Photographer, you won't regret it!

The team at The Kensington Photographer…

The team at The Kensington Photographer are truly amazing! From start to finish Jason was fab! He was there to answer my million questions and reassured me through the entire process! Emily our photographer was absolutely amazing! She genuinely felt like a friend and part of the wedding immediately! She captured the most beautiful shots and made us all feel so at ease, we can’t thank her enough! We’ve recently received our gorgeous presentation box of 150 prints and USB stick and it is totally stunning, we hands down couldn’t ask for a better photographer and to top it all off we were lucky enough to win the runner up prize in one of the Kensington photographer’s face book giveaways! If you want beautiful, natural and unbelievably stunning wedding photos, the Kensington photographer is the best pick!
Thank you again TKP, you guys are literally the best, we are in love with our photos, we can’t stop looking at them,

The Kensington Photographer are legends!

The Kensington Photographer were amazing from the very start of our wedding planning, all the way through the day and up until we received our photos. They even assisted me I when I called them with a planned surprise for my now wife that was set during our couples photos on the day.

On the day, our photographer was Mick and he really helped capture the magic of the fairytale wedding we had planned. The weather was on and off throughout the day, but Mick was one step ahead and always had where to go planned to capture the love.

The photos are also absolutely stunning and have come out better than we could have imagined. Cannot rate these guys enough. Absolute legends!

Captured the day perfectly

We chose the platinum package and recieved our 150 chosen pictures in a wonderfully presented and quality box today.
The kensington photographer have been professional and outstanding from start to finish, from booking with Jason over the phone to recieving our photos and data stick, which can be inserted into all different types of phones or devices.

We couldn't be happier with our photos taken by the amazing photographer Emily, she took the natural shots we were hoping for as like most we were not that comfortable having our photos taken and didnt want to be posing for photos all day. Emily was fun and easy to get along with, so passionate and unintrusive that you would barely know she was there on the day. The photos she has taken have exceeded our expectations and we couldnt have asked for a better photographer to capture the joy, love and beauty on the day.

There a quick turnaround to recieve the photos only a few weeks, a handy app and portal to log into to view your photos anytime.

We would highly recommend this company, there was no stress and they are laid back because they are good at what they do!

Thankyou for capturing the memories of our day perfectly!

We met Mick for our pre-wedding shoot, great! The photos came out stunningly! Mick was very friendly and easy to get on with which kept us relaxed!!

And then we had David for our wedding who was phenomenal! Lovely guy who made us feel at ease all day, Alex even said we feel the need to take him out for a drink because he was just brilliant! We can’t wait to see the finished results from the wedding! Thank you David!
