A fantastic service from start to finish!

We employed Hawaian Shirt Photograpy to document our Wedding. We can't recommend Tom and the team enough.

The initial meeting was really good fun and he totally understood what we were aiming for from the photos and videos. He had some excellent ideas and suggestions that we loved and would never have though of without his expert guidance.

On the day, Tom and his colleague were professional, funny and put us completely at ease. They had fantastic ideas staged shots, and the 'fly on the wall' pictures were spot on.

Afterwards, Tom provided the images and videos promptly and they were all epic! Our guests have raved about the quality and many have asked for his contact details for their weddings.

In our opinion, you wont find a nicer, efficient, professional, accommodating and reasonably priced company than Hawaiian Shirt Photography.

Thank you to Tom and the team for perfectly capturing our special day.

Wonderful videography!

We had Tom as our videographer for our wedding and we are so glad we did! He was very professional and captured some amazing candid shots and moments. Always there to help with a video call or at the end of emails/phone calls. Discussed our vision with us and brought it to life on the day. He was happy to make some amends on the videos e.g. ensuring all family members and friends were in there and changing the music we decided to go with a different song in the end.

All round great and we recommend him for anyone looking for a fair priced videographer!

Amazing experience for our fusion wedding

Tom was amazing. My husband and I both feel like staged posing, being cheesy and romantic on camera is a bit cringe so we wanted something natural and fun, and this is what we got! We had an English/Indian fusion wedding with 2 ceremonies on the same day and we chose Tom because of his experience with all different types of weddings. He is so friendly and approachable and we felt really comfortable with him on the day.

A fantastic videographer!

Tom from Hawaiian Shirt Photography was a fantastic videographer!
From various wedding forums, I had read that having a video to remember the day is one of the things people cherish the most after the wedding day, and they are right!
Tom has created a beautiful highlights video and an hour long video of the day for us and they are absolutely fantastic! Tom very very kind and funny throughout the day and captured some lovely moments between myself and my groom, and of all of our guests. Everyone loves the video and I never get tired of watching my highlight video and seeing just how happy everyone was on our special day. I cannot recommend Tom enough and I am so thankful for the lovely videos he created!

Very friendly and helpful, quick response and a pleasure to have on our day

We first saw Hawaiian shirt photography online and we instantly loved their videos, the way they captured the day in a natural, fun way! We immediately asked for a quote and booked a consultation, to which we went ahead and booked. Leading up to the wedding we had a phone call with Tom, he was very helpful and answered all our questions. On the day Tom was the first one to greet me and my bridal party. He was super friendly. As our day begun, we were so busy taking to our guests or posing for the photographer, that Tom was able to capture all the natural moments of our day without us really knowing. Once our day had finished, we couldn’t wait to see our wedding video. We didn’t have to wait too long as Tom was very quick at getting the edited version sent to us and it was so perfect! We absolutely loved it and have watched a good few times. We also had a highlight video that we shared with family and friends and everyone has complimented it and said how great everything looked. We cannot thank Tom at Hawaiian shirt photography enough, we are so glad we picked the best man for the job! We would highly recommend!

A non-intimidating, thoughtful and talented photographer

We're SO pleased with our wedding photos, we had a micro-covid wedding of just 12 people, so it was important to us that the photos captured the intimate, love that our wedding had. Tom got this spot on and we're blown away by the photos - they are informal but beautiful and every guest looks comfortable, at ease and un-posed. Tom was great on the day too, he was polite and most of the time we weren't even aware he was there or taking photos! He also didn't mind my last minute requests for different poses or backgrounds. Couldn't be happier - thank you :)

Brilliant wedding review

We used Hawaiian Shirt Photography to capture our wedding ceremony and party. They were perfect. Even though there was only one videographer, they managed to capture many different angles. They also used very discreet cameras, so that they were never in the way or even noticed. The edit managed to capture all the important moments and the atmosphere of the day. Thank you for doing a great job!

Fantastic experience!

Tom was exactly what he promised-blending into the background whilst capturing every element of our special day! Videos were edited and returned ridiculously quickly; very professional and constant communication throughout. Tom was lovely and made us feel totally at ease!

Would highly recommend

We hired Tom as our wedding Videographer, and he didn’t disappoint. Tom captured our day beautifully. He was very easy to communicate with and responded quickly to any questions. On the day you didn’t really know he was there, but he captured everything and more. He was very professional. Tom made multiple changes to the highlight video with no issues. Thank you very much, Tom!

Wedding Videography

We hired Hawaiian Shirt to film our wedding and I cannot recommend him enough! Baring in mind he was wearing a bright blue hawaiian shirt, he blended in and managed to film the day unnoticed which gave our wedding video a lovely natural feel. We got our full video back very promptly and also a little teaser trailer that we were able to share on social media. I'm so glad we found him and would definitely recommend him to anyone!

So great we recommend this photographer to couples who book our venue

Tom has photographed a number of weddings at our venue Pig & Whistle Restaurant in Chelmsford. Each time has has captured the day of celebrations. We used him for our own wedding and we recommend him to other couples who book with us.

Ideal Wedding Videographer

We were so happy to have Hawaiian Shirt to capture our wedding day. Their support and engagement was fantastic from the outset, they did a recce of the venue with us beforehand so they knew the location well.
On the day the team were brilliant, fun to be around and encouraging in creating the best shots as well as patient with all the formal photos we requested. We had videography and photography services. They were great, capturing so many amazing moments and providing initial photos really quickly so we could use them for thank you notes.
The drone footage was incredible and the team blended in to the background without missing a single moment of the day. We treasure the photos we have; especially the golden hour snaps at sundown - a real treat!
The video was amazing and is such a special memory of our day. They provided so much additional footage that was taken too.
The products provided were great value for money as wedding videography and photography is expensive!
We have recommended Hawaiian Shirt to friends and family who have also used them.
Thanks to Tom and his team - we would definitely use you guys again for any big moments or special occasions!
