Absolutely do not use this photographer. He is extremely helpful and professional until its comes to getting your photos from him. Been married a year now and still havent got them.

I concur - Do not use this photographer. Our pictures were disappointing. We are shattered. The images we got all had tons of black vignetting, heavy shadows and weird filters. The dark shadows made the bride look like Unvle Fester from the Addams Family. We asked for the RAW images of our shoot to cut our losses and be done with himand he refused and said they don't exist anymore.
I sent him a shot list ahead of the wedding because I knew my head would be all over the place and wanted him to make sure he got certain shots. He told us he would shoot the day and would note our shots. We ended up with none of myself, my husband and our son and very few of one of us with him. We do have fantasic photos of my father-in-law washing dishes and my mates drinking coffee in track pants.
The reason we hired him was he told us he would retouch any imperfections in post-processing. We called Pat (because he doesn't reply to emails) and asked for retouching (asking to fix some bulges and blemishes) and he told me that he shot what was there (implying my fat bits were my problem). He sent some photos with a real half-assed attempt at photoshopping our requests. He then tried to backpedal and say we never had a conversation about retouching people but only fixing light levels, etc.
We brought the images to another graphic designer and she said that the she can do her best with them, but not to expect much because our JPEGs are not of a high enough quality for the extensive editing needed and that it will be difficult for her to undo all of the black vignetting applied to our photos.
We also paid extra to have a cartoon photoshopped into one image and that nor our album (or even a phone call about our album) have materialized.
We have been emailing and calling for two months with no response.

DO NOT USE THIS PHOTOGRAPHER, he is an absolute gangster. Paid E2000 to him 21 months ago and still have nothing to show for it, going through the small claims court now.
