Paul Underhill Photography

Paul was our wedding photographer. He did a fantastic job from the moment we first spoke to him 9 months before the day.In thay initial meeting, he listened to what we wanted, and on the day found the perfect balance between getting the photos we wanted without taking up too much time. He put both myself and my spouse at ease on the day - making the photo sessions fun and relaxed. His suggestion at doing a pre wedding shoot prior to the day was also an excellent idea - it felt much more natural on the day as a result!As for the photos - they're exactly what we'd hoped for. They captured the atmosphere on the day brilliantly - offered a huge variety for us to choose from and we're excellent quality. He also did a brilliant job at turning them round quickly. All in all - we'd just like to say thank you to Paul for all his help. We can't recommend him highly enough to anyone considering him in the future.Thanks Paul!

We choose Paul as our wedding photographer and from the off he was incredibly easy to deal with. He made us feel relaxed on our pre-wedding shoot at Studland and we had a blast doing it. On the wedding day itself he captured the heart of the party and took us away for small amounts of time here and there so that we got to enjoy the day with our guests.We could not recommend him more highly, his style of photography was exactly what we wanted and so many of our guests have commented saying how amazing the photos are. He has an effortless nature and we have recommended him to friends who are currently engaged.

Paul was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Our engagement shoot was so enjoyable and the photos were amazing - and just a taster for what was in store for the big day! Paul was fantastic on the wedding day and we had so much great feedback from guests as well. We loved our shots - he managed to really capture the special moments. He was flexible throughout the whole process and we’d definitely recommend him as a brilliant and talented photographer!

Paul is everything you could hope for your wedding photographer and more. He goes out of his way to make sure he captures the best shots and more importantly the moment; he found a the perfect spot to capture our sunset photos with some stunning clouds in a wheat field, very special! He’s also a lovely guy who quickly becomes part of the day.

My (now) wife and I used Paul as our photographer for our wedding on 26 August, 2023. Both Paul's ability and his professionalism are outstanding - he was always available to answer any questions that we had throughout the whole process, he was incredibly easy to work with (especially given that my wife and I are not naturals in front of a camera!), is able to take both 'staged' photos (group pics etc., for which he was very helpful when organising) and also operate behind the scenes to take capture those great moments, was punctual, very communicative, and all round was absolutely integral to making our day and our memories of it so, so special. We were so happy with the hundreds of pictures that Paul captured and so grateful that he could be a part of our special day. I can not recommend Paul Underhill Photography enough!Pip & Amanda

I have been meaning to write this for Paul for a couple of months now but wanted to do it properly. If you are considering having Paul take your wedding photos (or any photos at all) then you should *absolutely* go for it. We splurged on Paul on the basis of his beautiful preview photos and one zoom call where my partner and I had awful connection and Paul was totally professional despite how useless we probably were (trying to plan a wedding while backpacking possibly not the smartest move).So why Paul - ask to see some of his preview photos, they are totally representative of how utterly fabulous the photos he will take will be.People say when you are choosing a photographer you should have someone you would want as a guest at your wedding (how on earth can you know that when you’ve only met someone once is beyond me… but…) trust me that you want Paul at your wedding.Paul didn’t really end up being just our Photographer, he was an honorary bridesmaid. Paul made sure my dress was appropriately floomfed, kept us on track for getting photos in the best light, took us for photos at times that meant we never missed any of the best parts of the day and no one had to wait ages to have the wedding breakfast (hangry family at a wedding is never good), he managed to get photos of my father without his bucket hat (trust me that this is truly an incredible achievement), he dealt with the horrendous staff at the venue with such poise and grace and humour that they didn’t impact our day the list goes on and on. Perhaps the best way of summarising is that every single guest at our wedding commented on how wonderful he was - including several saying how much he comes across as absolutely loving his job.Paul I know we told you how fabulous you are and how much having you as part of our day meant to us but also I honestly spent too long after the wedding trying to think up excuses to need you to take more photos for us (I’m sure I will manage to find an excuse sometime soon!).I could carry on being gushy but it might undermine the real message which is that you should 100% choose Paul to take your photos.

Paul is such a nice chap and was easy to have around on our wedding day. We are so pleased with our documentary style photographs and they have truly captured the relaxed atmosphere on our special day. The quality is perfect and we would highly recommend him to others.

Finding a wedding photographer that will give you something unique is no easy task, but thankfully we found that in Paul. We knew it from our first discussion with him and we immediately stopped looking at other options! As a couple we have very different tastes, and Paul’s style is exactly what we needed to find - someone who could truly capture what the day felt like for us and our guests. It all comes flooding back when looking back at the photographs. We get to see what everyone else saw and felt too. It’s genius.As a gay couple having a Jewish wedding at Hedsor House, there was a lot to squeeze into the day. Some of it relaxed and formal, honouring tradition, and some of it chaotic and mad - and Paul captured it all beautifully. We have breathtaking photos of our chuppah, our ceremony, the religious elements, all the attention to detail that we slaved over as grooms, and the stunning venue …and they sit brilliantly aside the madness of what happens on the dance floor at a Jewish wedding, where Paul got right into the action!Paul captured so many incredible moments from our wedding. He’s like a sharpshooter - finding the emotion, the excitement, the fun, and the intimate. You can almost hear his brain working at lightening speed. When you put so much effort into a wedding, it’s so reassuring knowing it is all going to be perfectly documented. We have a glorious time capsule of the wonderful day we got married.Paul is also an absolute joy to work with. A consummate professional with a great personality. Since the wedding, Paul has been mentioned in every single debrief with family and friends. They have all said how incredible he was to watch at work, but also that he was able to somehow vanish into the background and blend in with everyone, going unnoticed and capturing so many stunning images.Often at weddings, taking structured or group shots can detract from the mood, like stepping out of the vibe temporarily …but Paul just nailed keeping it moving, and the images are fantastic.Our test shoot was a great investment. Paul really put us at ease being in front of the camera and gave us so much confidence on our big day. We knew our wedding day was in the very best hands and that gut feeling is invaluable.We are so pleased we found Paul and got to work with him. We cannot recommend him highly enough. Simply world class.

Paul was the photographer for my wedding in September 2019. All I can say is WOW. He fully understood exactly what we needed and delivered more. We love EVERY single photo and could not have asked for more. From the moment we met Paul, to the final delivery of our photos, Paul looked after us and guided us. I would highly recommend his services for anyone looking for a professional photographer for their wedding!

We were very happy that out of all wedding photographers we decided to have Paul capture our special day. We really loved the photographs. It is quite magical to have a photographers that is able to capture everything, but still do it an a way that is very unnoticeable. He worked in an effortless way and we received a great variety of quality pictures. We can sincerely and highly recommend him.
