Kind Words

“If Max didn't have an eye, he'd still be a consumate professional, an affable human being, and an adventurous soul. But he DOES have an eye- more than an eye, a true gift. It's not just that he can engineer a wonderful shot, it's that he can find it, in the wild, in the moment, when you least expect it... And really, that's what you want. Think about the iconic moments, the moments where you'd most like to be frozen and remembered, they aren't you staring into a lens, they're you being in the moment. Max can find and capture those moments. Max finds the moments of joy and fellowship, he catches a look of longing or laughter, he slips between the rain drops and plucks the perfect moment in time to deliver to you. And he does it all with you barely noticing he's even there. It's really nothing short of actual magic. You won't be disappointed.”

-Kate & Nick

“Max was everything we wanted from our photographer and more! He was friendly, professional and calm and the fact he was able to get such amazing candid photos shows our guests were at utter ease around him. I couldn’t recommend him enough. Max, thank you so much for capturing our day so beautifully, they’re photos we will cherish forever.”

“Max is just an amazing photographer to work with. All wedding suppliers will write an attractive bio for themselves to attract clients, but Max's profile really is true to the word. On top of being a *brilliantly talented* photographer, Max is down-to-earth, relaxed, and friendly - just the sort of person you'd want to have for someone who's going to be snapping you all day! He's unscripted in his photography which leads to real, candid memories of the day; he's not pushy at all or invasive with his lens. Honestly, I could go on but really, his photos speak for themselves. With all the insanity that has been this year, we definitely couldn't have asked for a more lovely photographer to work with.”

— Elena & James at Prestwold Hall

“I can't recommend Max enough. He was professional and relaxed and took some of the most stunning photos of us on our wedding day. Communicating with Max was a dream, he was flexible and positive. We wanted a photographer that was relaxed and snapped candidly and Max made our day that much better. We laughed and joked and even though it rained ALL DAY he took stunning pics. There's nothing forced about his photography, he just matches your vibe & does a great job. BOOK MAX NOW!”

— Elle & Dan at Stoke Newington Town Hall

“Max captured our wedding day to perfection! Candid moments edited promptly and loved by all our friends and family. Max made us feel at ease, so relaxed and lovely, nothing felt forced, he really is an expert in his field! He definitely has an eye for good shots and carefully listens to what you want as a couple. We couldn’t be happier with our wedding photos! The quality is just so stunning, and Max really did capture the essence of the day.”

— Hannah & Howard at Crowcombe Court

“Max stepped in as our wedding photographer fairly last minute, after the person we originally booked was called up to do jury service.....and we are SO glad he did. As well as being a top bloke making us feel very comfortable, he got us an incredible set of photos. The breadth of different shots he got for us actually made it look like we had two photographers on the day..whereas in fact it was just him running around all over the place to get the various angles! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Max to anyone looking for a photographer, in fact I have already started doing so. Thank you so much Max!!!!”

— Emily & Tom at the Brighton Bandstand

“Thank you so much for taking such amazing photos, and being such a nice, unobtrusive presence throughout our day - everyone was really relaxed with you and it really shows in the moments you were able to capture. Thank you!”

— Julia & Steve at Lambeth Town Hall

“Max I LOVE them! Thank you so much for capturing the ridiculous, silly moments. You’ve somehow managed to get photos my mum loves, all my friends love and that we love too! The photos of our dance are AMAZING. Thank you!”

“I hate photos of me, but I love yours!’

Luxury wedding at the Corinthia Hotel in London.

“I feel so lucky to have had Max as my wedding photographer. My husband and I are not super comfortable with posing for photos, but with Max it felt totally natural. He was brilliant to have around on the day - a lovely calming presence. And most importantly, the photos are incredible. I've had so many people comment on how beautiful the photos are, and also people saying they didn't even notice him there on the day. He's brilliant and I couldn't recommend him more..”

— Rosie & Simon at the Corinthia Hotel, London

“I don’t think 5 stars does Max enough justice for just how good he was for my wife and I. He captured every aspect of our unusual wedding perfectly and we couldn’t have asked for more. In the build up to the wedding Max was very helpful and open in communication which really put us at ease. Nothing about our wedding phased him at all and he was very receptive to any ideas we had. Our wedding was not very traditional, but nothing was a problem to Max and the end product was absolutely gorgeous and we couldn’t be happier. Max is also very reasonably priced, unlike a lot of London photographers, but his output is still top of the range. Could not recommend him enough.”

— George & Rianna at Langtons House

“It is honestly impossible to articulate just how fantastic Max is. He goes almost completely unnoticed in the background capturing every magical detail of your big day. He's somehow able to put you completely at ease whilst also making you feel like he's not there simultaneously. Having our couple photos taken was probably one of the parts we were dreading most about our day, but thanks to Max it was one of the parts we enjoyed the most. We laughed, joked and danced and yet nothing felt staged or awkward. He was able to capture us and our personalities perfectly and we were completely blown away with how the photos turned out. Looking through our photos it's impossible to miss the clear theme running through them. That Max missed NOTHING. He captured every detail, every candid exchange whilst also ticking off the very extensive list of family shots we requested. If I could give Max 10 stars I would. If you're considering booking him for your wedding, just do it. You absolutely will not regret it.”

— Danni & Jonny

“You must book Max as your wedding photographer! He has been amazing from start to finish. In the planning phases he was completely on-board with discussing specific ideas we had to personalising our day, such as using bubbles instead of confetti. The result was absolutely beautiful – see photo.

Max is incredibly friendly, approachable and confident, without being in ‘your face.’ I was a bit nervous about having my photo taken, especially coupley/kissy photos as my partner and I aren't normally like that in public, but Max put us right at ease. The engagement photoshoot was excellent in making us realise what beautiful photos he can create when we were just walking around a forest occasionally giving each other a little peck/hug. I would highly recommend the package with the engagement shoot to have the opportunity to meet Max ahead of the big day, informally chat about your wishes and see the stunning results ahead of the big day – it really put our minds at ease that the photos would be incredible.

On the day he was brilliant by making everyone feel at ease. He balanced the documentary style/candid shots with occasional groups shots (which we had requested) perfectly. He also struck a great balance of photos of us/close family vs all the other guests vs the decor/details of the day. Some of the photos are so close up you’d think the camera was in your face all day, but honestly on the day we barely even noticed he was there (in a good way!), and he really let us enjoy the moments without making us pose/taking us away from all our loved ones.

As a mixed raced couple, one of our concerns about the photos was the balancing of brightness to ensure all skin tones looked natural. Max did this perfectly with everything from church to daytime to golden hour photos coming out looking beautiful.”

— Elke & Kwame at Birmingham Botanical Gardens

“Max was absolutely fantastic. We have loved everything single photo he took. On the day he made us feel incredibly comfortable and he did his work so smoothly and effortlessly. He has captured our day in full, even with the sparklers and rowdy guests. I would 100% recommend him to everyone wanting a wedding photographer! Max we honestly can’t thank you enough!”

— Gill & Rory at Clapton Country Club

“Max Turner Weddings, where do we begin? From the outset, Max was amazing. He had offered his service when our original photographer backed out 2 months prior to our wedding. Max was wholly helpful and transparent throughout, and listened to any special requests that we had (we like to think there wasn't many!). He advised how the day would go for him, what he would do, and what we should expect. To say we were extremely pleased would be an understatement. Max is an extremely talented photographer and has delivered on all accounts what we wanted from our special day. I recognised after the day, how I didn't see Max more than I did. It felt so easy to be relaxed without knowing that you were behind a lens. For anyone considering Max as their wedding photographer, I would honestly urge you to do it. If the pictures don't speak for themselves, then the fact that he wears pink suede brogues, will. Thank you, Max, for capturing our day perfectly.”

— Joe & Alice

“Having Max as photographer at our wedding was genuinely one of the best decisions we made for the whole thing. He is an absolute professional, super friendly and made us feel so at ease. We talked through the order of the day in advance and everything was just so easy to organise. The pictures turned out excellent, we literally couldn't be happier. Thank you Max!”
