Testimonials and Reviews from Happy Couples
“Ben was an absolute dream to work with on our wedding day. Couldn’t have asked for a better photographer. Everyone at the wedding couldn’t stop raving about how he managed to capture every moment.
We’ve no idea how he did it but he was everywhere at once but not invasive in any way. The perfect photographer who we will be recommending to anyone who asks.”

“We truly cannot say enough kind words about Ben Holbrook. He was the perfect choice for capturing our wedding day and turning our special day into an incredible film.
Ben made us feel so comfortable during any moments of filming that we were aware of, and watching our films back, he had us looking and feeling like movie stars, and we have been crying happy tears all over again.
He made sure to capture every special moment and show it to us as if we are reliving it just the same, and it feels so much deeper than any other wedding videos I’ve seen before. Our films are absolutely spectacular and we upgraded to the ‘Platinum Package’ because we wanted even more! Not only is he an extremely talented videographer, but also he is a joy to be around and fit in just perfectly with us. We had a great time getting to know Ben and if you want the best, I recommend you book him for your wedding day.”

“We found Ben after months of searching for someone who would match the kind of energy we wanted on our wedding day. When we saw all the incredible outdoorsy footage he'd previously captured, we knew we'd found our guy!
Ben was so professional and kind throughout the lead up, having a call and chatting through our plans to make sure we got what we wanted from the video, and helping think of things we hadn't even considered. He even attended our run through the day before, giving pointers for the wedding party.
During the wedding day he was everywhere, without being obvious, he fit right in and got absolutely gorgeous footage not only of the very emotional ceremony, but also the high energy party that came after it. Both the photos and the videos have been so beyond what we could have imagined, I can't really believe it's us! They are incredible. And having the moments caught on video really feels like we can relive it again and again. Thank you so much.”

You are so professional, thoughtful, considerate and kind, we totally forgot you were even filming for most of it as you were just a lovely calming influence and so bloody good at your job!

“There's no words!!!! Ben is one in a million. He put our special day into a film that we will treasure for the rest of our lives and something our children and grandchildren can keep as a memory.
Ben was with us all day from prep through to after first dance. He was not intrusive, was so polite, patient and put all of us at ease. He was up for anything and the actual film had me in tears it was so precious.
The film was high quality with lovely music that fitted our theme and excellent drone footage that captured the beauty of the venue and its surroundings. We found Ben at short notice and he fitted us in. He was always in touch and replied to any requests without delay. We didn't even have to wait a month for our first teaser film.
He is highly recommended by us. Such a lovely and genuine guy as well as a talented professional. All our love Kelly, Andrew, Abigail & Kai. X”

“What can I say about Ben? To be honest, without him, our wedding would not have been the same. He made our day perfect and contributed to it from beginning to end. Our video is something we will cherish forever and it was so carefully done and perfect. The attention to detail and thought that went in to it was something my wife and I loved. We could not have asked for a more kind, thoughtful and down to earth videographer. I could not recommend Ben highly enough. Thank you so much Ben, you will always be remembered by Rhianne and I for creating something so incredible and we could not be anymore thankful.”

“Ben was our wedding videographer at Oxwich Bay (Gower, Swansea) in August 2021 and we’re so glad we booked him!
He surpassed our expectations in every way. He was an absolute pleasure to have at our wedding and his work ethic was outstanding. We spotted him very early in the morning already hard at work on Oxwich Bay beach hours before our wedding began.
His work is phenomenal and he has provided us with visceral memories that we can cherish forever. Ben understood us and captured us and our family and friends personalities perfectly and everyone loved him.
If you're considering booking him, don't think, just do it! A true professional and extremely high quality videographer. Thank you Ben.”

“Ben is an absolutely amazing videographer, he catches the moments perfectly and makes the experience fun as we were dreading the photos/video (myself and hubs hate photos etc).
He was so lovely, mingled well with the guests and was so enthusiastic the whole day.
We I can’t thank you enough Ben for our video, the preview one is outstanding enough and the full video absolutely superb.
So so glad we found you and by luck you were available to film our day.
Thanks again for everything, will forever be greatful to you. The Peakes x”

“You know you have an amazing videographer when your guests start to pointing out to you how impressed they are with how diligent Ben works around the wedding. Truly, you can see the investment of emotions and effort Ben puts in to making sure that we have the the most amazing documentary of our best day. By now, we've watched the preview and full-feature film Ben produced and both us and our parents are more than happy with what the video. Love the drone shots! Highly recommend Ben!”

“Ben was really lovely to have around and it didn’t feel unnatural, he just quietly slotted himself into the back ground. My husband was really nervous about being mic’ed up for our vows and speeches but Ben was able to convince him, just one of the many extra things he helped with! We absolutely adore our video and I cry everytime we watch it. He captured the day so beautifully and I wish we could do it all over again each time we replay it!! We’re so lucky our original videographer cancelled on us as we’ve ended up with something so beautiful that we will cherish forever!”

“There are no words to describe how grateful we are to Ben for the video he has created which celebrates the life of my late Mum, Thelma.
My brother, Edward, was unable to attend the scattering of my mums ashes so the initial idea of the video was to be able to share the day with him. The day was very special as not only did we say goodbye to my mum but celebrated her life.
Through out the day Ben was not only compassionate but totally in tune with what my family were trying to achieve. Many of our guests commented on how professional and compassionate Ben was.
The video is wonderful, I only wish my wedding video, which was not produced by Ben were half as good. We feel very blessed that Ben was a part of our day as he put the video together with love and care, my family will treasure it forever. Thank you Ben.”

“Ben was tasked with travelling to Ryanair destinations within Europe and the Middle East to produce compelling travel photos and videos for Ryanair’s website and travel content hub.
As a content producer, Ben was innovative, creative and conscientious and was regarded as one of our most talented and reliable team members.
On every project in which we collaborated, Ben was a joy to work with, consistently delivering to the highest of standards.”
— Fiona Hilliard, Digital Content Manager at Ryanair

“I cannot recommend Ben enough and would work with him again in a heartbeat! My company, Devour Tours, hired him to shoot a promotional video and photos of a team gathering and we were blown away by the results.
First of all, he was a joy to work with—really flexible and communicative before, during and after the event, and he got on so well with the group that we’re still talking about him months later!
Then, he got the edited photos and video back to us earlier than planned and the whole team was floored by the results.
He captured magical moments of emotion in the photos, even in the challenging environment of people sitting and watching presentations—when we look at them alongside photos of the same event from the previous year, there’s no comparison. And for the video, we weren’t even sure how to express to him what we wanted, but he completely delivered. It conveys exactly what we weren’t able to put into words, and is both a great memory for the team, and a perfect sales tool for future customers!
Oh and the price/quality ratio can’t be beat!”
— Ashley Duncan, Content Manager at Devour Tours

“Ben is an incredibly talented videographer/photographer and I would highly recommend working with him!
He filmed an audition self tape for me during lockdown which really captured the attention of my agent and many industry professionals. Ben’s a talented creative with a great eye for detail and a solid work ethic.
Friendly and easy to work with. Highly recommended! Thank you Ben!”
