Charles Thorne Photography

We have seen Charles' work at 3 of our friends weddings and decided we would book him for ours. The best decision ever. Before the big day we met with Charles a couple of times to discuss the day and what he would be doing. Charles even gave us a lesson in how to pose for pictures!!Charles spent the day with us, the morning with me whilst I was getting ready and then all day just past the first dance. You wouldn't even know he was there. He even took us to mudeford quay for some photos after our food as the light was perfect.We can't wait to see the shots he has taken, the couple he showed us on the camera were fantastic.I would definitely recommend Charles Thorne Photography to anyone needing a photographerThank you for creating the photo memories of our special dayLove Matt and Claire Tranter.

Charles did the photography for my wedding, my wife and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Charles has been a class act throughout from helping guide us through the lead up to the ceremony to crowd control on the day. To top it all off we have a collection of fantasitc photos! Charles handled whatever was thrown at him with aplomb.The addition of a pre-wedding shoot really helped to put us at ease and prepare us for what the day had in store. We had a wonderful evening at Shell Bay which also resulted in some fantastic bonus pictures.We recommend Charles for covering weddings and are sure that he would handle other types of event just as well.

Charles photographed our engagement shoot and our wedding day. He is a very friendly and relaxed photographer which in turn makes us feel happy and relaxed! He gave us advice on the best ways to stand / walk / tilt our head to optimize our positioning for a great photo. Our photos are beautiful - thank you Charles!

We looked long and hard to find the right person to photograph our wedding day and Charles was the perfect choice. He was a pleasure to work with, meeting us for a lovely pre-wedding shoot, helping us to plan everything out in the run-up to the big day and then providing us with a beautifully presented final set of photos once we returned from honeymoon. On the day itself he put us at ease right from the start, blending in seamlessly with our guests and other suppliers. We were really impressed at the way he worked with the bridesmaids and ushers to guide us all smoothly and very efficiently through the organised group photos but were also so pleased with his gorgeous candid shots of some really lovely moments during the day. Thank you Charles, we will treasure these photos for a long time to come!

Thank you Charles for capturing our wedding day for us. We would highly recommend Charles. He is very friendly and helped us feel relaxed in front of the lens by arranging a pre wedding shoot that we really enjoyed. His professional nature and the quality of his albums and presentation is superb. He goes above and beyond to create perfect memories.

Dear CharlesThank you so much for sending our photos through, we are struggling to find the words to say how absolutely incredible they are. You have captured our day so perfectly and we have relived our wedding time and time again through your photos. Not only are they photos but they really are works of art; from the cheeky smiles of the flower girls to the raw emotion we both felt on the day and everything in between.We have had so many comments from all our guests about how lovely you were on the day quite honestly we all forgot you were there. You directed us when we all needed it and as a result the photos are perfect.Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being so understanding in times of covid when we had to move our date time and time again. Never once did we feel like you would let us down. Our pre wedding shoot enabled us to gain excitement for our big day and you ensured it happened when we both felt down about our first wedding postponement.We are genuinely over the moon and we cannot wait to show all our family and friends our wonderful day and to relive it over and over again.Thank youDan and Martha

We absolutely loved our wedding photos! Charles was brilliant, from start to finish! All our guests commented on how good he was and that they didn't even notice he was there half the time. We still recommend him now 4 years on!

Charles was our photographer for our wedding in Beaminster in August 2019 and we couldn't recommend him more highly. From a fun filled pre-wedding shoot on the beach at West Bay, mapping out our plans for the event, co-ordinating the shots on the day itself and finally sending us our amazing pack of photos so quickly afterwards, Charles did everything possible to make our day run smoothly and make us feel at ease throughout. We now have a fabulous set of photographs which capture the highlights and emotions of our day perfectly. Thank you Charles!
