“It goes without saying that Daniel is an exceptional photographer and you can see this from his portfolio. Despite this we were still blown away by the photos we received.

He captured the spirit and story of our wedding day perfectly and importantly he did this with a such a warm, unassuming attitude that if he wasn’t our photographer we would have wanted him as a guest.”

Simon & Selina Connick

“Our photographer was one of the first things we arranged 18 months before our big day. Having met Daniel and seeing his portfolio we knew we would end up with amazing pictures and wouldn’t be bossed around to pose for lots of cheesy pictures we didn’t want.

We knew out pictures would be amazing, and Daniel did not disappoint, we will recommend Daniel to everyone we know.”

Fergus & Lauren Hall

“Our wedding photographs are amazing – pictures to treasure. Daniel made us and our guests feel totally relaxed, and made the day even more perfect. Nothing was too much trouble and the photographs arrived within a few weeks on DVD so we can print our own, excellent.”

Ben & Abbie East

“We were blown away by the images Daniel had created, they will continue to be a pleasure to look at for years to come. We were spoilt for choice and struggled to decide which ones we would display in our home.

Daniel is a smashing bloke, fun, friendly, and above all really puts you at ease as he has a relaxed approach. We cannot recommend him highly enough.”

Jon & Rachael Punt

"From the moment we met Daniel we knew he was the photographer we were going to choose. We were not disappointed. Daniel was very professional but at no time did he feel intrusive.

The photographs he took captured the day and we were overjoyed with them. We and our guests would happily recommend Lightening Photography to everyone."

Chris & Helen Herrieven

"We would recommend Daniel to everyone. His imagination is different class and it shows in his pictures. He is really down to earth and the photos are top class."

Neil & Gemma Gayfer-Hall

"Daniel was such a pleasure to work with. His service and photography is second to none. When we received our photos we were dumbstruck. They were breathtaking. Very creative and beautiful, worthy of a magazine - and we both usually hate having our picture taken! Thank you so much."

 Judy & Matt Shannon

"Daniel is a fantastic photographer, he is not intrusive and took great photos of our wedding day. We felt really at ease around him and he took photos we wouldn't have even thought of. We highly recomment him to others."

Matt & Kate Taylor

"Daniel did a phenomenal job throughout the whole wedding, from scouting the location beforehand to taking photos the entire day.
At no point did we feel like we were simply going from one formal to another.

 He was an absolute pleasure to have around on the day but most importantly the photos look as good as we could have ever hoped for - and more!"

 Mark & Lauren Crowther

 
"Daniel is an extremely professional young man who added that little extra special something to our wedding day. His skills with a camera are second to none and he is truly creative with his shots and images.

 Even the most selfconscious guests were happy to be photographed by him.

 Our photos are amazing and I highly recommend him. He was an amazing person to work with and captured our day perfectly."

 Daniel & Jennifer Oswick

 
"Daniel Lightening is a fantastic wedding photographer; unobtrusive and professional. Our guests and vendors remarked on how good he was throughout the wedding and we couldn't be happier with the wedding photos we've received.

Daniel put us at ease and this shows in the photos which we received not long after the wedding. The DVD slideshow captured the day brilliantly and my family were thrilled to receive copies.

I cannot praise him highly enough."

Marc & Daisy Mailey

  "Daniel Lightening gave us an exceptionally personal service, and we were thrilled with the photos. On the day he was both discreet and quick to react to any opportunities that arose spontaneously.

 In planning, Daniel listened carefully to what we wanted and came up with ideas that were very personal to us. Nothing was too much trouble, and he was very quick to respond to calls and emails.

 All the special moments of the day have been captured beautifully and artistically, and also with all the humour we were so keen on. Additionally, we really enjoyed his company - he was polite and good-natured to all our guests and families."

Mike & Charlie Stainthorpe

"Well where do we start? Daniel's photos are amazing, there is no other way to describe them. I'm sure everyone worries about getting the perfect photos from their perfect day, we did too and after endless research on the internet of pricey, very pricey and even pricier photographers, my mum was lucky enough to come across an advert for Daniel, so we arranged to see him. On arrival he was very friendly, warm and relaxed. He was so helpful and had only done one wedding at the time but the pictures and story book were so beautiful, it was so obvious that Daniel had a clear talent for taking brilliant photos.

 On the day Daniel was calm and professional and truly looked after us.

He captured every wonderful moment on our day and every emotion which went with it. My husband and I both cried with joy at our pictures, in fact I have watched the sideshow on 5 different occasions now and have cried every time!

We would highly recommend Daniel to anyone and everyone! Thank you Daniel for making perfect memories of our perfect day, we will treasure them forever."

Graham & Esther Gooch

  "The service we received from Daniel was amazing. The photos were ready just a week and a half after the Wedding and they are gorgeous. With such high quality, he has really captured the feeling of fun and excitement of our special day and the photos have told a story, even my husband cried when he saw them!

  Having seen many examples of photographers in the Norfolk/Suffolk area, Daniel would come very highly recommended from us, he was always contactable when i needed him, he kept me calm and reassured in the build up and on the wedding day, nothing was too much trouble.

Daniel is such a talented and fantastic photographer who you can trust to capture your magical day, we cannot thank him enough, we will treasure our photos forever."

Simon & Gemma Jackson

"After researching countless websites and subsequently discussing the exorbitant prices which we were issued, with my then husband to be, we felt a little concerned that we did not really know what service we would be provided with, it felt like a lucky dip. As this is one of the biggest days of your life, you don't want to chance who and how those cherished memories are captured. A personal recommendation was made to us suggesting that Lightening Photography would meet our needs perfectly. Not being advocates of the "staged" look we were wanting a photographer that would capture the essence of the day not just the images.

The photos were outstanding, they captured moments that I hadn't seen and they told an emotional story of the day. As the pictures were taken in a reportage style even those who normally shy away from the camera was captured looking relaxed and happy. From the pictures themselves I would have expected to have paid a lot more, they are beautiful and one friend said she thought they were good enough for a magazine. Daniel's pictures covered all the elements we wanted; the quirky, the serene, the fun, the laughter, the tears and above all they truly echo a romantic day.

  Family and friends have been impressed too as they can get copies of the pictures for only 6p a shot! That makes a welcome change too. I can not extend my gratitude enough; I would not hesitate to recommend Daniel to anyone whom is after that something special. Daniel was humble, unobtrusive, supportive and dedicated to the end. I can't believe how lucky we were to come by him."
