Information For Joe Weil Photography

Relaxed style with an artistic twist. Professional service from start to finish, check your wedding date is still available before it's too late. Visit my site for more information.

At this point I could start by telling you that I offer a sophisticated service from start to finish and throw in words like ’emotional’ ‘feelings’ and so on. But unless this is the first website you have probably heard it all before.

Let’s cut to the chase, I am just a normal chap, who absolutely loves his job. (Well the wife and children might disagree with the normal part). I have been a professional wedding photographer for over 10 years and am recommended by some of the best venues in Dorset, if not the country.

No matter what the day throws at me…

As a professional wedding photographer, my true aim is to make sure your big day runs as seamlessly as possible. With well over 400 weddings photographed, I have seen it all. From torrential rain with 100 guests stuck under Bournemouth pier, a coach breaking down with all the wedding party on, leaving me only 30 mins to get all the main family and couple shots photographed, to a venue drastically changing the lighting as the bride and groom walked down the aisle, leaving me only seconds to adjust my setting and get that all important shot. My point is – I will always deliver.

A note about the weather

I have photographed weddings all over Hampshire, Dorset, and the UK. We all know we can never trust the weather. I promise you that even when all the elements are against us, I will ensure this makes no difference in the quality of your photos. In fact, I will often think outside the box and create some really special wedding photos. Here is the review from a couple who really had the weather against them on their big day.

“One of my best decisions about my wedding was the photographer I chose! I am over the moon with my wedding pictures!! Joe has such an artistic way, with his forward thinking and planning when the heavens opened up and we faced all the elements he still produced some amazing and different photos, he is so easy to get on with and made my day perfect, he captured some beautiful moments especially of my candlelit ceremony. Thank you so much, can’t thank you enough – next will be my baby photos!!! ???? xxx” Alicia Matthews, Bournemouth, Dorset.

Working with me…

Being a people person is almost more important than the ability to take a great photo, you are with the wedding photographer all day long. If you take a look at my testimonials page you will see what my couples have to say about my personality and ability to put them and their wedding party at ease.

Here are a few examples:

“Joe was excellent. I cannot recommend him enough. His manner is great – his humour and friendliness really puts you at ease and definitely added to the vibe of our wedding day (as you do spend a lot of the day with your photographer!) His photos are brilliant. He is a preferred supplier to many venues for a good reason! Do not hesitate to book Joe. You will not regret it!”

– Victoria Logan, Ferndown, Dorset.

“From the minute we met Joe over a year ago, we knew he was our wedding photographer! He was so laid back and funny, yet so professional. On the day, he didn’t disappoint! He was constantly making people laugh, relaxing everyone and he knew exactly what shots would look best. He truly made our day and we were so grateful he was there to celebrate with us! Thank you for helping us create our perfect wedding day – we can’t wait to see the pictures!”

– Gaby Wheelhouse, Poole, Dorset.

“It was an absolute pleasure and a great laugh to have Joe capture our wedding day. His laid-back, calm and humorous approach was a breath of fresh air. We absolutely recommend him.”

"He was the best! Such a joy to work with!"
"We had the pleasure of Joe being our wedding photographer and what can I say, he was the best! Such a joy to work with and he made us (and our guests) feel so at ease. Joe was more than just a photographer, after my classic wedding car broke down he ended being my driver too! He really made me feel so much better about the situation and I honestly don't know what I would have done without him there to keep me calm and deliver me safely to the venue. During the wedding he was calm, professional, friendly and we had such a laugh with him. Honestly one of the best decisions we made to hire him as our photographer. Thank you, Joe!"

"His presence is incredibly uplifting, always a great way to guests interacting with photos."
We had joe as our photographer for our wedding in September and we’re given a 5 star service.

We met joe at a wedding fayre and knew straight from the off we wanted him to capture our special day, he was warm and welcoming and we could clearly see from his portfolio the knowledge and experience he has to offer.

Joe not only captured fantastic photos of us and our guests, but also provided an entertainment value, his presence is incredibly uplifting, always a great way to guests interacting with photos.

We enjoyed Joe’s company as did our guests and was a real pleasure to have him as part of our day from start to finish. Joe captured a range of photos from carefully positioned photos to the real heart felt photos caught in the moment.

These our photos we will always look back on and treasure.

Thank you for being our photographer and the amazing service you have provided.

"He was very relaxed and I barely remember him being there!"
"Joe photographed our wedding in April, he was very relaxed and I barely remember him being there. Joe sent us the photos much sooner than I expected and we are super pleased with them. There are some lovely family shots and shots with our dogs but also some lovely candid shots too. The quality is fantastic and we will really cherish them. Joe thank you for capturing our day so well! Highly recommended"

"captured all of the special moments discretely"
"We are so glad that we chose Joe Weil to photograph our spring wedding at the Italian Villa. He really captured the happiest of the day and created a good balance of more formal photos and relaxed shots. Joe’s friendly and relaxed manner really helped to put us at ease and he did a great job of interacting with our guests. During our ceremony and speeches, we weren’t aware of Joe taking photos at all, he captured all of the special moments discretely. The gardens at Compton Acres were busy on our day and Joe did an incredible job of capturing a great selection of couple shots in the gardens. Our photos were returned promptly in digital format, Joe then created an excellent quality leather bound album which we will treasure forever."

"The way Joe adapted to the rain was amazing"
"We had Joe capturing the memories of our big day, I wouldn’t have changed it for the world Joe was incredible. Unlucky but apparently lucky the weather was not on our side and it rained throughout the day, the way Joe adapted to the rain was amazing, as a side job Joe was the weather man watching the ways of Mother Nature as soon as the rain broke he quickly got everyone outside for a group photo and whisked myself and my husband away for some more personal photos. I highly recommend Joe and couldn’t thank him enough for being our photographer."

"But Joe made it so much fun and the guests also all loved him"
"We were married at the Italian Villa Compton Acres on the 11.09.22. We genuinely cannot express how grateful we are to Joe - from the moment we met him, we were put at ease. Photographs are not our favourites - we both hate being the subject of them! But Joe made it so much fun and the guests also all loved him! Without Joe, the day really would not have been as perfect as it was. We cannot wait to see the photos but have no doubt they will be more than we expected. Thank you so much Joe, we would never hesitate to recommend you and in fact, already have!

"He provided leadership on the day to ensure that it ran to schedule"
Joe did a fantastic job at our wedding at Kingston Country Courtyard in Dorset. Joe took many special photographs which really captured the occasion and he provided leadership on the day to ensure that it ran to schedule. Joe’s knowledge of the venue was valuable. We strongly recommend Joe as your wedding photographer.

"We couldn’t be happier!"
"We were so happy that we chose Joe to be our wedding photographer. We felt that we were in very capable hands and it was all second nature to him; he knew where when to be and what to shoot without needing to be directed. He was also happy to guide us and offer advice on other parts of the wedding in the run up which was appreciated. The photographs themselves are stunning and document the day perfectly. We couldn’t be happier!"
