Looking for the perfect photographer for our wedding at manorbier. I done an engine search of other wedding pictures and the photos that I loved all belong to Steve we were so pleased he was willing to travel to do this also at very short notice. He is very professional very friendly captured every moment and more. Highly recommend him for any perfect day, for those special photos that you will keep forever and means so much. Thank you Steve you've been a diamond xx.

Steve photographed our wedding for us at The Bear, Cowbridge on 30/11/2013. We were both a bit nervous about being photographed all day but Steve made the process really easy and comfortable. He was brilliant at capturing shots without us noticing, and getting everyone together for group photos. Several guests commented on how good he was. Thanks Steve!
Response : Thanks guys for the lovely review.

What a guy; so professional. He was friendly, relaxed and fun; his photographs capture the true essence of Laura and Ed's day, relaxed and full of fun! Thank you Steve; your service is certainly exceptional and we would happily recommend your wedding service to anyone. Best wishes Gaynor and Peter Lewis (Laura's parents - wedding Peterstone Court 19. 10. 13).
Response : Thanks it was a pleasure covering Laura and Ed's wedding.

Steve was the photographer for our Wedding at the Coed Yr Mwstwr Hotel, Bridgend in October 2013. We simply could not recommend Steve highly enough. He works so hard to get all the shots and in such a friendly, laid back but organised way. The results were fantastic and we're so happy with everything. Thank you Steve.

What an AMAZING photographer! We got married 18th May at Radyr Christ church and the on to Radyr golf club, and all we can say is how grateful we are. Steve not only made us but our guests feel very comfortable around the camera. Steve's creativity captured our day perfectly and we couldn't be happier with the amount of professionalism that was shown. Thank you so much Steve. Will be recommending you to all family and friends!
Response : Thanks Sophie, glad you like your photos.

Our wedding was in April 2013. We chose Steve based on the reviews and his online gallery but only met him on the day when he turned up and got straight to work. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him! He's a lovely guy who made our photo session feel fun and informal rather than time away from guests. He was great at getting the guests into the group photos and he found some great locations around the venue for some stand-out photos but was never intrusive. Most importantly the photos were fantastic.

We had a fairly good idea of what we were looking for when searching for a photographer for our wedding. We were keen to avoid the forced poses all too often seen and wanted someone who would bring our pictures to life with a fresh sense of creativity and the initiative and courage to try different ideas. Steve accomplished this perfectly and was a fundamental part of the day without ever being overbearing, or too prescriptive. He was flexible, and brought stacks of energy all day long. He genuinely worked his socks off and it shows in the fantastic pictures we have of our day. Very highly recommended and would not hesitate to work with Steve again. A photographer who genuinely loves his job and takes immense pride in his work. Thank you Steve!

My husband and I spends hours online looking for a photographer when we came across Steve work we both love it. We contacted Steve and when we meet he was very friendly and polite, we book with steve that night. We got married on the 27th October 2012 and have already had over 400pictures back which are amazing steve made myself especially relaxed on our wedding day would highly recommend.

We met steve about a year before our wedding and once we saw his work we knew he would be perfect for us. On the day Steve was extremely profesional and friendly which helped us relax. We had some fantastic photos that captured the day perfectly. All photos were amazing and we expecially liked the casual shots taken. Photos were ready to view online much sooner than we expected. Would definately recommend, Thanks steve, Lee and Menna.

We recently got married a The Bear Hotel and Steve was our photographer. It has only been 2weeks since our wedding and already over 400 shots are available for us to view online. We are extremely happy with the shots, the formal ones that we had requested to the fun, informal ones which we love. I personally felt very relaxed around Steve, he is soooo chilled, I didn't notice he was there most of the time. We had lots of comments from our guests as to who our photographer was as they also thought he was brilliant, two of our guests have recently married and they feel quite disappointed that they hadn't discovered Steve. Art by Design is also excellent value compared to the many other companies we enquired with. Please take time to view Steve's work on his website. We have already and would in the future highly recommend Steve as a photographer. Thank you Steve.
Response : Thank you guys for the kind review. It was a pleasure covering your wedding. Steve.

We recently got married in June 2012. Steve was amazing with all his advice prior to our wedding. He also captured our wedding day in such a way that we just love to look at the pictures over again and re-live it all. I would highly recommend steve.

I am absolutely thrilled with my wedding photos. The value for money is second to none - my friends can't believe they have paid double, sometimes triple the amount for their pictures with other companies and have not been as satisfied and happy as I am. Excellent service, I would highly recommend Art by Design to everyone! Cheers Steve xx.

Steve photographed our wedding on 26th May 2012 at Coed-y-Mwstwr Hotel. We were absolutely thrilled with how he captured the spirit of the day with a mix of more formal photos along with relaxed, informal, "spurr of the moment" images. He used his artistic flair perfectly, even getting us "up a tree" to get some fantastic shots. The package was extremely good value for money, and we have all those fabulous memories captured in the album to enjoy forever! Thank you so much Steve. Claire and Matt Heirene.

Met Steve before the wedding, he was very easy to get on with and understood exactly what we wanted from the wedding pictures. On the day he was very punctual. He took some pics at our home of us getting ready, but was v un-intrusive. Took lovely shots in church and reception. Have just had the albums back and they are fantastic. Overall a very professional service, wouldn't hesitate to recommend Steve.

Steve has taken the wedding photos for both my children's weddings. I've know Steve for a very long time and he is always very professional in everything he does. Superb photos and captures the spirit of the day every time. Thank you so much!

The best thing about Steve, other than the great, creative photos, was his professionalism. So many of our guests commented how friendly, organised and fun he was. It made our day relaxed. Thanks Steve.
