Reviews of Wedding Photography by Shiv

B. D.

We had the pleasure of having Shiv photograph all our occasions. He was so professional, relaxed, friendly and unobtrusive. We were impressed with the care and attention to detail Shiv took with our photographs. All our photos are amazing and Shiv has the natural ability to capture perfect photos! He takes extra care and looks for the perfect shots using the surroundings he is in. With his calm and gentle approach he arranged all the family members when it came to family photos. Our family loved working with Shiv! We absolutely loved the fun and excitement Shiv brought to our wedding. Shiv is so easy to work with and it honestly feels like he’s just a family member taking photos! We now have a wonderful selection of natural, laughter-filled photographs which we will treasure forever! Memories for life! We love our albums! Thank you Shiv!!! P.S. If you are looking for a photographer, look no further, promise you there won’t be no regrets!

Shiv is an absolutely amazing photographer! Having a great rapport with your photographer is so important for your wedding and Shiv ticked all the boxes. He made things more comfortable and got along with all of our guests. He took amazing pictures without getting in the way of guests and let them enjoy the ceremonies without interrupting them (like with pictures of socialising and eating) but still captured great shots at the same time. My guests had some great banter with him too. And the photo album that he produced- words can’t do it justice!! It was beyond amazing. I would hire shiv time and time again if I needed to host lots of events.

P. S.

Shiv photographed our small Covid wedding and we couldn’t be happier. He captured our day with style. We picked out Shiv because his photos were both stylish and had a real, lived in feel. He definitely got the best out of us and hiring Shiv was the best investment we made to help us remember our day for the rest of our lives.

P. R.

Shiv was a joy to work with from start to finish. He communicated with us very well during the preparations, and had some excellent ideas about the pre-ceremony photos. He made us, and our guests, feel very at ease throughout the ceremony and afterwards, and we are really pleased with the images that Shiv captured for us. He seemed to take a personal pride in trying to make our day as perfect as possible. We would highly recommend Shiv to anyone seeking a wedding photographer.

S. K.

Shiv was great - both in the run-up to the wedding and on the day. He blends professionalism with a great sense of humour and is very approachable in his manner. As someone who isn't a natural at knowing the best poses, Shiv was great at directing us as necessary to make sure we got some stunning photos ! Definitely recommend !

M. V.

We were recommended Shiv by a close family friend for our wedding and he was fantastic from start to finish. He captured our day perfectly and was loved by all our guests. Shiv was very professional and was excellent in giving tips and advice in the build up to the wedding day. Shiv has a great sense of humour which helped us feel relaxed on what could be perceived as a stressful day! We are in love with our wedding album and it was difficult selecting the photos as we loved so many. We want to thank Shiv for his incredible work and would recommend him to anyone.

N. H.

We were looking for a photographer that could capture our eventful and inter cultural wedding! We were last minute due to Covid and despite having to change our plans several times, Shiv has been extremely accommodating and understanding! We loved the communication and the 2 photographers we had on our wedding days! The pictures are well captured moments and I would definitely advise to go for the box of photos! Thanks Shiv!

S. B.

Shiv captured the essence of our wedding day in his photos. He gave really helpful direction and made myself and all our guests feel comfortable and at ease. On top of that photos were ready very quickly after the wedding. Overall, a very happy bride and would highly recommend Shiv for any of your events.

K. P.

Shiv is an awesome guy to work with, he has always been helpful and professional. Since doing the photography for our wedding in 2011, I have also used him for our work events and we are very happy with the quality of his work. I would recommend using him. Kalpesh

S. P.

Shiv was more that a photographer for us, he became family. He managed to capture all our special moments and we are lucky to now have these memories to look back over and reminisce. It was a natural and free-flowing process where he got to understand how we operate as a couple and became close to the family too so that the key people where also in all photos. Our destination wedding in Mexico would not have been possible if Shiv hadn’t of has any hesitation on breaking boundaries by scoping all the venues out to get the best shots, night or day he was on call and always made the process as positive as possible. He did over 9 events both in the UK and in Mexico, creating a stress free, creative and professional environment. We thank him for being with us during our wedding time and could not have done it without him. Shiv is recommended 100x over, please follow is advise and input as he really is a professional. Looking back over our photos and Albums we could not have dreamed for anything better. Myself, my wife and our family agree that he he is Truly 12/10 quality, speed, accuracy, professionalism & banter! We have already have other friends and family lined up to use Shiv.

G. P.

Shiv is an extremely talented, friendly, and professional wedding photographer. He gels well with guests on the event days and is calm and collected when having to organise large crowds. He sticks to the timing agreed which is crucial when you have a tight schedule to keep to. After all the events were finished, he was extremely quick in getting us our photos and was very helpful during the process of creating our wedding album. The wedding album itself was beautifully designed and carefully thought out. I have recommended Shiv to numerous people who have chosen him and have been equally happy with the service / end product.

P. E.

Great experience with Shiv all the way from the intial consultation, (where he came to our residence which was extremely convenient) all the way to the delivery of the wedding photographs. Personally very satisfied with the service and professionalism from him and his team. Would highly recommend - Puish Kumar Engineer

P. A.

We had the pleasure of Shiv and his lovely dad as our wedding photographers. They were both very professional and very down to earth. I can be camera shy, but Shiv with his great sense of humour made me feel at ease and comfortable. Shiv is an all round photographer that certainly knows how to capture great natural pictures. The photos were truly amazing and I remember it took us months choosing the photos as there were so many great ones to choose from for the album. I would highly recommend Shiv and his team. Keep doing the great work that you do Shiv!

J. C.

Our wedding photos were taken by Shiv 10 years ago, and we still love to reminisce and look back at them! Shiv made the events really fun and made us laugh through the day. He helps remove the awkwardness of posed photos and delivered absolute perfect quality for our albums. Shiv took our ideas on board and helped bring his expertise and experience to help provide us with a beautiful set of photos. Without any hesitation, we would love to recommend Shiv to all our friends and family looking for a fantastic photographer!

K. J.

Booking Shiv to capture our wedding was the best decision we made. Not only were the shots amazing, he was fun, friendly and made all of us relaxed on the day. We have recommended him all our friends and family getting married, see you at the next wedding Shiv!

M. K.

I know this has taken ages for us to get around to write but we didn't want to rush and write just any review. You deserved an amazing review after the immaculate wedding service you provided us with. From the start to finish, Shiv was the perfect photographer. He didn't just capture all moments perfectly, he also made everyone laugh and kept a good mood in every room. Everyone had only good things to say about Shiv after the wedding. The wedding pictures came out absolutely amazing! We cannot thank you enough for the amazing service, photos and beautiful wedding album. We would recommend Shiv to any couple looking for a photographer. Thank you once again!!!

N. P.

Shiv is an amazing photographer! His humour & friendliness has the ability to set everyone at ease. Shiv has the ability to capture the feeling of the moment in every picture. The pictures are beautiful and heartfelt, & everyone loves them. On the actual day Shiv was discreet & managed to capture lovely photographs of all the guests, the moments & the ambiance of the day. We couldn’t be happier, and highly recommend him.

D. B.

Shiv photographed our wedding and it was the best decision we could’ve made! His shots have been printed and framed all over our home and we still look through our album once in a while. He was super friendly with our family and friends and he’s shot a few of our family weddings since. Thank you so much and we hope to see you at another wedding soon!

T. P.

Shiv is an amazing and innovative photographer, he took our pre wed photos and our wedding photos! Very friendly, easy to talk to and really captures each moment in a unique way! Thank you so much for taking our wedding photos! Highly recommended

A. P.

Shiv first did our pre wedding shoot and I was so impressed with what he produced; I knew I made the right choice by going with him. During our wedding not once did he ask us to smile; he captured our special day with us being ourselves. I am still amazed by all the pictures and albums we have of our wedding. I even have one of his pictures hand painted! They are modern and creative.

D. M.

Shiv did our pre-wedding and wedding photoshoot and was amazing. He helped with co-ordinating the wedding photos with family on the day which was a big help. He is professional, easy going and reliable. Photos came out amazing too. Would definitely recommend!

R. R.

Shiv was our wedding photographer back in 2016 and what beautiful moments he had captured. We still enjoy looking back at them and truly thankful for the great, quality shots from the big day. Highly recommend Shiv, the team are professional, warm and seamlessly delivered what we wanted, if not more. Thanks Shiv!! Reshma and Niten

S. S.

I would love to share what an amazing experience we had working with Shiv and his team! Their style is very unique and from our first meeting getting to know us as a couple, we had every confidence they would deliver a personal and professional service. Wedding pictures are so precious, and we are still blown away every time we view our photos, our guests have even commented on the level of detail in each picture! Shiv also worked so well to add our own personal touch to each picture! Our priest and vendors were also so impressed with the way the team work, so naturally and having such a great sense of humour, our family members and guests were entertained all day! If you’re looking for a passionate photographer with an artistic eye for finding creative angles and capturing those heartfelt emotional moments, we would definitely recommend working with Shiv! Thank you for producing photos that instantly bring us back to every special moment of our wedding day! S&S x

N. P.

Fantastic service and competitively priced. We still marvel at Shivs creations and superb editing. The quality of the album has stood the test of time and 10 years on it still looks as good as the day he delivered it. The quality of the photos and the warm friendly service he provides is amazing. Some really beautiful candid shots. I have recommended them to all my friends and family over the years and they are all grateful. Hopefully you only get married once and when you do you want to capture the day as it moves so fast, months and months of planning goes by in a flash. So don’t hesitate and get those precious moments captured by Shiv. His dedication to his work is also carried through in his hobby as a sports photographer and some of his F1 photographs have made it as features. Keep up the good work Shiv. You are a credit to your industry.

F. P.

Shiv was recommended to us to be our wedding photographer by a family member and it is one suggestion we haven't regretted taking. From the pre- wedding shoot all the way to the wedding reception, Shiv was there with us taking great pictures that we'd forever cherish. He's easy to get along with and feel comfortable in front of. Around our home, we have many pictures that he took from the different wedding events, reminding us of the great days in the lead up to the big one! Since then, he's been my sister's wedding photographer too! Looking forward to seeing you again soon- probably at the next family wedding seeing as you're becoming the resident photographer! Thank you so much for everything!

R. P.

We asked Shiv and his team to capture our 3 wedding events in July 2019, plus our pre-wedding shoot. Shiv was professional and very responsive throughout the process, and was also reasonably priced. He helped ease my nerves on the day with his light hearted nature. Most importantly, we were really pleased with the end result - we got some beautiful photos and a good mix of traditional family pictures and more creative shots, which is exactly what we requested. Couldn’t recommend him enough!

T. P.

I was recommended Wedding Photography by Shiv by a friend who runs his own professional media company; that pretty much says it all. Shiv's work is phenomenal and I would recommend you follow his instagrams @shivgohil_ and @shiv_weddings if you fancy garnishing your feed with his wonderful works. Never thought I'd have a Formula E professional photographer taking my shots on my wedding day. Shiv keeps things light and comfortable and gets the best out of us and our guests for some truly wonderful memories. My wife absolutely loved the presentation box in which we received a glass usb drive containing all of our photos. In short: Professional; friendly; confident with handling guests; but, most importantly, amazing photos!

N. C.

After speaking to 10 photographers and looking through countless portfolios Shiv's work stood out to me. Your wedding day is the most special day of your life and it is really important to capture those sweet memories that are usually missed. Shiv captures all the small moments that make the day what it is and every time you open that album you will smile. I cannot say enough about him, he was the easiest person to work with and was like part of the family. Make your day perfect with Shiv's photography. :)

N. M.

Shiv, we can't thank you enough for taking such beautiful pictures on our wedding day. Those special moments you captured will now be remembered through your wonderful photographs. You came in at the last minute and have done such a great job. You arrived early at the venue to scope out the best shots and brought such a fantastic energy to the day. Thank you once again for everything!

J. R.

I had done extensive research for our wedding photographer as it is very important for me to be able to capture the emotions and feelings of a moment from a single photo and Shiv does exactly that! Through his photography you can feel the emotions of the moment and looking back at your photos, you will remember how special everything was. Shiv was an absolute delight to work with at all our functions and provided a stress-free, kind and professional service on your special days and always with a smile on his face, in the end, we have stayed contact with him and from a family of 4 brothers, he most certainly has the contracts for the weddings of my 3 brothers! :)

P. R.

Shiv's perspective and creativity is unique! His rapport with his clients is a great balance of personal and professional. Never been disappointed with the shots that he has delivered for us. Great attention to detail and knows what matters when capturing the moment. Really recommend him for capturing your most special events and treasured times that will stick with you for life!

A. L.

What a great and Awseome individual, I still recall how great it was working with Shiv and Dash Photography many years ago for my wedding, not only is this team highly professional, but they have an awesome eye for detail. I always recommend Shiv to friends & family when ever I hear someone is need of a photographer, I totally trust his work & he never fails to deliver.... His work over the years has exceptionally improved which is evident through his amazing shots, a perfect example of individual who constantly works on his craft striving for improvement. You will not be disappointed.

S. P.

Shiv is a professional, dedicated and talented photographer. Throughout the whole wedding process, he was always well composed and patient with us when it came to organising and taking the photos. He was friendly with all our guests and worked efficiently with the priest to set up the optimum shots. The pictures that he took captured the essence of the day perfectly and he also managed to grab some really nice hidden gems. He promptly returned all the pictures to us to select our choices and once we had selected the photos, he sent us our album very quickly. The quality of the work was very high with great pictures and paper choice. Even after the wedding we have seen him since at a different event and he still remembered us and had a friendly chat with us. I would definitely use him again whenever I can.

j. a.

We hired Shiv for our wedding and reception at the Hilton Waldorf in London in 2017 and we found shiv to be knowledgable, helpful and had a great sense of humour! He understood exacly the types of photographs we wanted. He captured all the best moments of our wedding and reception down to a Tee. We would not hesitate in recommending his services to any couple who is looking for a great photographer. We also found his services to be competitively priced and the photo album was the best bit! He also made us feel very comfortable and at ease.

N. V.

From the moment we met Shiv we knew that we wanted him to capture our special day. Having seen his work before we knew the quality of his pictures, but little did we know the attention to detail required to capture them. Shiv told us everything we needed to hear, got us acting naturally in front of the camera and even helped us plan timings on our wedding day! We wanted our album to tell the story and emotion of our wedding day and we were absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Every moment has been captured in such a beautiful way. Not only have we got beautiful memories to last us a lifetime, we also had a lot of fun along the way!

S. P.

Amazing photography for our wedding in Sept 19. Shiv was amazing and made us feel so relaxed and provided us with beautiful memories. Pre photo shoot was initially terrifying but Shiv made it such a laugh. Spent the time to ensure all detail was captured and the whole experience wasn’t all serious serious and felt like a friend taking our photos. Highly recommend!

M. S.

Shiv captured our wedding a few years back & we could not be happier with the images. He's great at responding to my questions before the wedding and is super easy to get along with. Thanks for everything Shiv and we hope to see you at another wedding soon!

A. P.

Shiv didn't just take the photo's for our wedding day he was part of the great memories we made that day. We have been married 11 years and still remember the day with Shiv part of it. Not only was he extremely professional, he made it fun. With car paparazzi style photo's as we were celebrities, running through the field as if we were acting in a Bollywood movie and much more. The album was perfect with some amazing artistic ideas of the pictures. We saw him recently at as the photographer for my friends wedding and it was so lovely...had to grab a selfie. Highly recommend him and his crew. We will always now call him first. Thanks Shiv.

We had the pleasure of having Shiv for all 4 of our events; Pre-wedding shoot, Civil, Indian and Reception and couldn't recommend his services any more than we already have been! From the very 1st conversation you will feel like Shiv is your best friend that you've known him for several years. An overall very humble and professional personality however he will have you in stitches with his humor. You can tell Shiv has done this a million times and just knows the perfect photo opportunity - I'm pretty sure he could plan your wedding if you asked him! He's well organised and will run through the itinerary with you ahead demonstrating his attention to detail and goes as far as fitting his schedule around time for you to eat. For the overall wedding, Shiv and his team are very discrete and non intrusive but looking at the photos he's been able to capture moments I don't think anyone else would have noticed. Shiv's creative background really does make him unique and perhaps the reason why he's able to capture these special moments in ways you haven't seen before. He invests time to ensure all the key family members make the cut too - I think this in itself really highlights how much he really cares about making this perfect for you. If you want photos that really create a story of your most special events, I can only recommend Shiv and his team. Thank you again!! Anil and Reema

D. T.

Professional at the same time friendly. One of the best photographer I have known. He made my civil ceremony day 😁. Photos and videos arrived on time too 👍 I would highly recommend Shiv Photography. You won't be disappointed trust me 👌👌

P. P.

Shiv was elected to do all photography for my wedding events as I'd seen his work from previous events, not only weddings. The quality and workmanship is off the charts. Having someone with such professionalism and mannerism is valuable and most importantly giving Shiv the responsibility of doing my photography with no headache alleviated the stress immensely! Highly recommended photographer

D. D.

Our big day and all our other event's and photoshoots were captured beautifully by Shiv. He was professional, patient, had excellent attention to detail and a great sense of humour. He really understands how to get That epic shot every time! Shiv will listen to you and happily take on board your own ideas and bring your vision to life. Shiv's after edit skills are just as amazing and well thought-out. Thanks for everything!

L. E.

Shiv is one of a kind, his imagination and eye for seeing things that others would not is unreal. He captured intimate moments and emotions throughout our special day without making his presence even known. When we got our pictures back, it was like revisiting a day from a hundred different angles, it was quite magical. Highly recommend from start to finish 👌 you won't be disappointed

P. j.

Professional & 5 *star service through out my wedding. Very easy with communication & all I can say is how happy I am with the way my photos came out. I cannot thank Shiv & his team enough for putting all there efforts in making my wedding & reception pictures look like amazing! Highly recommended

G. B.

We had the most creative and beautiful wedding photos done by Shiv Gohil last year (May 2019). Shiv was able to capture amazing shots at the Gurdwara (template) and making use of the London Tower Bridge back drop we had for our wedding reception. Each photo was well thought through and added a story to it. Thank you for making our day so special with your amazing photography. We have even blown up to a few pictures into 5 ft by 3 ft glass photos as the quality of the photos are spectacular, that now hang in our hallway entrance. We get so many compliments. We would definitely hire Shiv for future events and would recommend him to all. The photo album is always a delight to go through. Shiv spent a lot of time capturing the key moments and helping us relive our special day. Thank you. Raj & Preeti

M. G.

Shiv has photographed most of the weddings in my family which basically makes him family so, it was a no brainer who to choose to shoot our big day. We had a COVID wedding and even with the last minute changes, Shiv was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure he captured all the special moments of our big day and the end result is AMAZING! We can't thank you enough!

D. P.

I used Shiv for all my events and he was absolutely lovely, such a fun person to work with and has a great sense of humour just what you need on your big day. All our pictures where perfect and would defo recommend to use him :) Love his work!

Shiv is an amazing photographer that I would highly recommend! He is exteremly professional and takes the time to understand you needs for the wedding. Being an amateur photographer myself, I am a little particular when hiring someone else to take pcitures. Shiv did an absolutley fantastic job of my niece's wedding!

K. A.

I have worked with Shiv at countless (!) events around the world and he is an outstanding photographer. He captures any brief perfectly, including shots you didn't realise you needed. It feels like nothing is too much trouble (even when you know it is!) and he is a genuine pleasure to work with.

a. r.

I got married in oct 2019, we spent ages speaking to different photographers. Shivy and his team were recommended by friends. They were so flexible and adaptable to our requirements. Very professional service. Amazing pictures! If you want hassle free photography knowing that the end results will be spectacular, Shivy and co are the way to go!

K. A.

I. B.

Shivy went above and beyond the call of duty! He became more than just a photographer, he became an advisor, a confidante and a key figure in our wedding. His attention to detail and professional opinion is unmatched. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough!
