Wedding Your wedding day will pass so quickly that it’s hard to take it all in. The big moments of the day, the small details and the split second gems that can easily be missed in the craziness of it all – you can rest assured, I will endeavour to capture them all in a vibrant, colourful and carefully composed set of beautiful images.

I treat every image as a piece of artwork and an important jigsaw piece in telling the story of your day.
Hi, I'm Damien, I am an award winning Cambridge wedding photographer covering the whole of the UK & Europe. I will capture the atmosphere of your wedding with emotive and natural documentary wedding photos that take you right back there to how you felt in the moment. If you want to do your wedding, your way or don't especially feel comfortable posing for the camera, trust me to capture amazing wedding photos without the need for you to feel awkward or uncomfortable about having your photo taken.For most of your wedding day, I will blend completely into the background, shooting in a documentary style so I can capture all the moments of joy during your big day - even the bits you missed.
I live in the Cambridgeshire fens and am married to all round superwoman Kelly. We have eleven-year-old twins Zach and Lucy who naturally provide me with the perfect training to always be conscious of life's precious moments, awareness of what's going on around me all the time and making sure I have the energy to keep up with it all.
My favourite kind of weddings are the ones where there is a relaxed feel during the day and a party vibe at night. You'll get me as your photographer all the way through, from those excited prep shots to punching the air along to your favourite tune on the dance floor. A 15 minute breather for you as a couple to get stunning portaits of you both looking amazing - if we can we'll grab some epic sunset shots too. If you're planning a wedding that is a little less on the traditional side with the focus on you and your guests having the most amazing time.
Photojournalism with a love of beautiful portraits. For most of the day you'll barely notice me, I like to blend in with the guests or fade into the background so people forget I'm there! I'm not afraid to get up close and personal for the killer shots, cheeky winks, a solitary tear or the moment your bridesmaid nearly chokes on her drink with laughter.

We can only say amazing things about Damien. We are delighted with the images, delivered only a few weeks after. Damien was our immediate choice due to his focus on relaxed and candid shots, capturing the feelings of our guests and some wonderful little moments of the day when we didn't even realise. He was easy to chat with in the enquiry stage and we just connected on looking for a meaningful and relaxed vibe in our images, not posed or forced.

The images are so crisp and beautifully capturing the light throughout our day. Damien sent us 5 images two days after the wedding to have immediate images of the special day, and then collated a stunning and super tasteful 'best of' slideshow with music so we could share easily our memories with our friends and family, followed by the full album. We can't thank you enough Damien for giving us lifelong memories of our day.

Couldn't have asked for a better wedding photographer. On the consultations Damien was efficient, understanding and organised. On the day he was friendly, calming (very important!) and professional. The final result was beautiful, he was incredibly accommodating to my inconvenient requests and I cant stop smiling every time I look at our photos!

Damien is incredibly professional from start to finish. I can whole heartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a photographer for an event. Outside of the "staged" pictures, you wouldn't know he was there, and the pictures he captured were simply amazing. Thank you for coming and being part of our day, and thank you for the incredible pictures which we will cherish for ever.

We can't thank Damien enough for our wedding photos - they are incredible. Damien perfectly captured our day! From the initial enquiry, to the day Damien was so helpful, quick to respond and nothing seemed too much trouble, despite having to postpone and change our plans! On the day Damien was great and never seemed to be in the way. If you are looking for a photographer to capture natural moments with guests as well as formal group photos then Damien is the man for you. We would highly recommend! Thank you once again!

Damien was absolutely brilliant! The photos of our wedding day are of superb quality, he managed to capture so many natural moments of us and our guests alongside our long list of group photos! Damien understood exactly what we wanted and was such an integral part of our day without ever being 'in the way'. His calm demeanour and personality meant he was a hit with us and the guests from start to finish. We would recommend Damien to anyone. Thank you!

If you want a professional and great guy to take candid and relaxed shots of your day, then look no further than Damien. We didn't want loads of staged or "traditional" wedding shots, but wanted him to just capture natural shots of people enjoying the day, which is exactly what he did! The photos were brilliant and he edited and provided them to us in good time (approx 4 weeks) - looking at them took us right back to the day itself! Highly recommended!

Damien was due to photograph our July 2020 wedding that got postponed (Covid!) to July 2021. Damien was professional and thoughtful throughout, from initial conversations, to our engagement shoot, to scheduling and rescheduling plans as the pandemic changed everything. On our wedding day itself Damien arrived promptly, and seamlessly integrated himself with us and our guests- it was like having another friend there who happened to be taking photos!

His organisation and communication was spot on and the final photos are fantastic too. We would not hesitate to recommend Damien to anyone getting married - he was a faultless photographer!

I can't rate Damien highly enough - we have had so many compliments about the photos he took of our day - they are colourful and vibrant and really captured the energy of the day. Damien himself is great to have on the day as well, lovely guy very relaxed and goes with the flow. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

I'm not sure I can say enough good things about Damien's work on our wedding day. He was everywhere, without being intrusive, and his style of photography means we've got so many wonderful natural shots of our guests enjoying the day, in addition to some wondeful posed shots. His use of light and space really is fantastic. Everyone we've shown the photos to has commented on how wonderful they look - I actually think several guests are looking for their own copies of photos of them.

The photos that Damien took of our wedding are stunning! We love that Damien managed to capture so many natural moments of our guests enjoying themselves. It was so lovely to look through the gallery and discover all these photos that we didn't know were being taken at the time, Damien was brilliant at getting these shots without people realising they were being photographed. As well as producing great photographs, Damien was a dream to have around on the day, putting us (and our guests) immediately at ease in his presence. Thank you so much!

Damien shot our wedding on 26th June & I can honestly say I'm so, so happy with the end result! The photos are stunning. He really captured the essence of our special day in every single photo. Absolutely worth every penny. All our guests commented on how brilliant his photography was both on the day itself & when they saw the photos. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Damien to anyone looking for an amazing photographer for their special day.

Damien was our photographer for our wedding in August 2019. My brother and sister-in-law had hired him the previous year and we thought his work was fantastic. We love his bright colours, quirky shots and relaxed photography. We knew his work would be good but i was ultimately impressed with the extra lengths he went to with scouting the area early for great little photo spots! Also- his professional ability to work with our videographer who we booked separately. Everyone thought they were booked together as they both worked so professionally together. I would highly recommend Damien.

Damien's photographs of our wedding are fantastic and beautifully capture the atmosphere of our wedding day as well as the features of our unique venue in Tuscany. He was so easy to get along with and was super efficient at getting great shots, such that we were able to get on and enjoy our wedding day with our guests, without feeling like we'd spent hours having photos done. We'd highly recommend Damien!

Damien was excellent at our wedding! He was everywhere at once, got plenty of natural photos of everyone enjoying themselves. For 2 people that dont do well infront of cameras Damien made us feel very comfortable. Super happy with the photos , did everything we asked for and couldn't fault anything. Very quick turnaround with receiving the photos so no waiting for ages which was amazing. Kind and very pleasant to be around!

Thank you Damien for our photos, We love them so much. We can’t stop looking at them! So glad you convinced us to do some bump shots - think these are actually my favourites! You totally managed to capture the vibe of the day. We will cherish these for a really long time

Damien was an amazing wedding photographer! He was patient and up for whatever we wanted, including taking some photos at our legal ceremony a month before the wedding instead of an engagement shoot. I'm glad we found him and very happy with the photos!

As soon as we looked at the wedding portfolio on Damien's website we knew that he stood out from a crowded field. His photos just seemed to burst off the screen, so full of vibrant colour and really full of character. After speaking to Damien on the phone we knew he was the one immediately. He was super professional, really friendly and most importantly really down to earth.

On the day Damien worked absolutely tirelessly to capture every moment. Most of the time we barley notice he was there but we did have some really complimentary comment from our guest about how friendly and what good fun Damien was to be around. He wrapped up the group shots in no time so that nobody got bored and he took us away for around 15 minutes to get some truly magical shots of Paul and I the we'll treasure forever. We received the photos with 2 weeks of the wedding and were truly blown away by how well they capture the day. Damien really was the perfect choice.

Honestly couldn't believe how the photos came out for our special day... from the start Damien was amazing, he was very genuine when we first met, following onto our engagement photos he made us feel massively at ease (as we really aren't photogenic at all) so that made it so much easier when it came to our big day! from the start to the end we couldn't have wished for more, Damien really got "those moments" which we will cherish for a lifetime to really reflect back on the wedding day... couldn't suggest or praise Damien enough! A MASSIVE thank you from both Soph and I!

I have worked with Damien a number of times over the last 3 years. Some of this work includes family portraiture, corporate and wedding photography. You can see from his portfolio that his work is excellent, but Damien is professional, creative, approachable, friendly and invisible when you need him to be. I can't recommend him highly enough.
Tracy and Mark Bain
Well what can we say about Damien's work, he is amazing, thoughtful and manages to capture all the shots that you hold in your head as memories but captured on film. We generally hate having our photos taken and generally can't agree on good pictures of ourselves that we both like. But from our engagement shoot and all the wedding photos we like them ALL.

This is purely down to how skilled Damien is as a photographer and his ability to capture the mood and vibe of the day through photographs. majority of the time we didn't even realise he had captured a moment until we saw the pictures. He has captured every element of the day perfectly and everyone who has seen our pictures who were not at the wedding, says what a lovely vibe they get from them.

We have had comments from people who were at the day who said "perfectly captured a perfect day". You don't need a video if you are using Damien as he gives you everything you will ever want and need. If you want a photographer to capture your day so you can still feel and touch your day he is the man to book. Thank you Damien.

After Meeting with Damien one evening both myself and my bride to be, knew that we had found our photographer!
Damien was just what we were looking for in a wedding photographer someone who would blend in and feel like one of the guests, capturing moments otherwise unseen. He also shared his love of shooting with prime lenses - something which I have in common with him, as I believe it makes the photographer move around the subject more and produces a better framed image.

When done well the resulting images are amazing and let me tell you Damien shoots incredibly well. Our photos are stunning and we couldn't have asked for anything more. My wife felt very comfortable with Damien during the pre-ceremony portions of our day and I loved being whisked away for a few photos of just the two of us. It's not something we are used to doing, but our pre-wedding shoot with Damien and his cheerful friendly nature allowed us to just have fun, feel natural and the resulting photos are awesome!

During the whole process Damien actively engaged with us to discuss the types of photos we would like to get, both listening to our ideas and providing inspiration when we riding know what to do. He was punctual and all images were delivered within a few weeks of our wedding. A truly brilliant photographer!

Superb photographer who captures you as a person in a relaxed and reassuring way with stunning results.
Felicity & Tim
Our wedding day at the Hotel Felix was wonderful, very relaxed and happy – and one important part of this was because Damien himself was so relaxed. We were able to chat and mingle happily with our guests while photos were taken unobtrusively so that no one felt self-conscious or hassled. We had a mixture of more formal and reportage style shots, which reflected the ambience of the day. Damien was also very flexible regarding the package we chose and took into account our own wishes at every stage. We would thoroughly recommend Damien Vickers photography, and have a lovely selection of beautiful photos to remind us of our special day.
Susan & Carl
We were very happy to have Damien on hand to photograph our wedding day. In the lead-up he was readily on hand to answer any questions and we felt confident the photography would run smoothly after chatting and emailing with him extensively. The day itself brought gorgeous English summer weather, which made for a very hot work environment, but Damien and Phil still worked tirelessly to capture all the big and small moments.

We were glad to have Damien on hand for the ceremony and all the events of the evening, as he got some fantastic shots from the ceilidh and disco (not to mention those of the reception and ceremony itself). We are really pleased with how he managed to capture the spirit of the day, both in the shots of us as a couple and of our guests having a good time. Finally, the photos of our venues were really stunning as well. All in all the pictures serve as a fantastic reminder of a very special day and we are so thankful to Damien for capturing everything.
