I have been a professional Photographer for 12 years. Constantly shooting different work all over the world, ranging from commercial, portrait, action sport, events and of course, weddings. Through doing all these different styles, in the studio and location, it has allowed me to try different things and push my style of wedding photography. I believe I can offer a fun and unique service which will make you feel so comfortable on the big day that it feels like you have a friend making your images.
My style of wedding Photography is known as Commercial Wedding Photography. This is because I use my geek knowledge of studio lighting techniques on location during the wedding. However this doesn’t slow me down, over the years I have perfected different methods for every kind of situation.
Throughout the day I also shoot reportage to make sure those beautiful once in a life time moments are captured. The atmosphere from day to night are so different at weddings. Night time shots are an opportunity to capture really unique and powerful images.
Each wedding coverage can be tailored to match your needs, photo booths and albums can be added and removed.

Since I founded David Michael Photography in 2004, my studio has grown to become one of the most popular wedding photography suppliers in the UK. Today, I boast over a decade worth of experience, and have carefully shot and documented in excess of 600 weddings spanning the UK, Spain, and Italy.
I am proud to have recently won the UK Wedding Art Fashion Award at the International Master Photography Awards. I have been voted Top 10 Wedding Photographer of the Year for 2016 and 2017 at the UK Wedding Awards hosted by Hitched. Further notable accolades include being awarded a Highly Commended Award at the 2016 and 2017/18 Essex Wedding Awards.
I’m continually challenged and inspired in equal measure by those whom I photograph. The most subtle of smiles or emotions and the quiet exchanges between people serve as my focal points. This is my signature style and in my industry may best be described as documentary photography.

With a decade of experience and many regional and national awards under his belt, David at Rideout Films has crafted a unique style of wedding film making which blends storytelling and cinematic impact to portray the tale of your Down Hall wedding day beautifully.

For us your wedding is about capturing the moment as it happens, there’s no staging and no re-runs. We film in a very unobtrusive style looking for natural shots where possible.
We like to know whether your wedding is an intimate affair or a large celebration. We like to know about your choice of venue, the service, music and other details that you have organised for your big day.
Just like the two of you. Most importantly, your wedding film will be individual, unique and tailor-made to suit you.
All packages include coverage of the whole day, from pre-ceremony preparations to evening celebrations, with ‘in-full’ footage of the entire ceremony and speeches.
We focus on creating a handcrafted film, telling your story, which is original and personalised for each and every bride and groom.
If what you see on our website inspries you then we’d love to hear from you about your special day.

What other people say about a company is WAY more powerful than anything you can ever say about yourself, so here is a recent review from one of our weddings we attended:

OMG - not referring to the company here, literally...OMG - they are AMAZING!
We hired the Magic Mirror for our wedding and it was SO much fun - a lovely, quirky alternative to a Photo Booth, our guests (and we) loved it!
The props were great and in excellent condition, the set up looked wonderful and the staff, both in the lead up and on the night, were so lovely - Ryan set up super quickly and discreetly and was an absolute delight to have there! We were kept well informed leading up to our wedding and someone was always there to answer any questions whether we e-mailed or called.
The Guest Book was also REALLY nice and OMG provided pens, glue, etc... so we have a beautiful keepsake that we didn't even realise we would appreciate so much until afterwards.
Whilst you cannot put a price on the peace of mind and fun these guys provided, I would just like to mention that the prices are, in my view, very reasonable for what you get.
Seriously cannot recommend OMG enough - I fully intend to use them for every event I ever have any part in organising going forward. Thank you so much!

Don’t dream about going to a casino let the casino come to you! Great for young and old, 20 guests to 120 guests there is a package for you.

You can really tell they both really care about their product and how the guys looked in it. There were no problems with the suits on collection and everything was easy.
We also bought shoes form dapper chaps which were so comfortable and really set the suits off.
Many thanks dapper chaps for making our men look dapper!"
