So glad we chose Nigel to be our photographer and Gary to do our wedding video. We first met them at bluewater wedding fair, we thought instantly how nice and genuine they seemed. Absolutely love our wedding package. All the photos are beautiful and the video is amazing! I would recommend over and over again. Two great guys that went above and beyond and made our day that little bit more special. 5*

Recently came in for a passport photo, was much better than sitting inside one of those photo booths. Staff are very polite and provide a nice little folder for your passport photos

Very friendly and professional from the store staff to the staff on the day. All questions we had and requests that were made, we're handled professionally and quickly. Nothing was ever too much. Would definitely recommend.

Always a good place to have your photograph taken with a processing machine that sends your image to the Passport Office.
