We got in touch with Charles to take photos at our wedding. My partner and I have been blown away by how fantastic Charles has been through the whole process. He made us feel completely at ease and comfortable with having our picture taken. We thoroughly enjoyed the pre-wedding shoot and had so much fun with Charles on the day of the wedding. We are immensely happy with the final package of photos we have received.

He got great pictures of us with our family and so many amazing moments that we were too busy to see on the day. We would unreservedly recommended Charles to anyone for any event, especially a wedding.

Dear Charles Thank you so much for sending our photos through, we are struggling to find the words to say how absolutely incredible they are. You have captured our day so perfectly and we have relived our wedding time and time again through your photos. Not only are they photos but they really are works of art; from the cheeky smiles of the flower girls to the raw emotion we both felt on the day and everything in between.

We have had so many comments from all our guests about how lovely you were on the day quite honestly we all forgot you were there. You directed us when we all needed it and as a result the photos are perfect. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being so understanding in times of covid when we had to move our date time and time again. Never once did we feel like you would let us down.

Our pre wedding shoot enabled us to gain excitement for our big day and you ensured it happened when we both felt down about our first wedding postponement. We are genuinely over the moon and we cannot wait to show all our family and friends our wonderful day and to relive it over and over again. Thank you Dan and Martha

Charles is both a professional and very well experienced photographer who is organized and great with whatever is thrown at him to ensure he captures the right moment. Thanks so much for completing our wedding day saving great memories!

Charles was our photographer for our wedding in Beaminster in August 2019 and we couldn't recommend him more highly. From a fun filled pre-wedding shoot on the beach at West Bay, mapping out our plans for the event, co-ordinating the shots on the day itself and finally sending us our amazing pack of photos so quickly afterwards, Charles did everything possible to make our day run smoothly and make us feel at ease throughout. We now have a fabulous set of photographs which capture the highlights and emotions of our day perfectly. Thank you Charles!

Charles Thorne Photography is just the very best one could hope for. Charles ensured we were all comfortable and relaxed before starting the photo shoot. The friendly, warm atmosphere he created ensured our photographs were superb. The lighting and background he chose for us could not have been better. Thank you so much Charles for an excellent job, would recommend this photographer unreservedly.

We looked long and hard to find the right person to photograph our wedding day and Charles was the perfect choice. He was a pleasure to work with, meeting us for a lovely pre-wedding shoot, helping us to plan everything out in the run-up to the big day and then providing us with a beautifully presented final set of photos once we returned from honeymoon.

On the day itself he put us at ease right from the start, blending in seamlessly with our guests and other suppliers. We were really impressed at the way he worked with the bridesmaids and ushers to guide us all smoothly and very efficiently through the organised group photos but were also so pleased with his gorgeous candid shots of some really lovely moments during the day. Thank you Charles, we will treasure these photos for a long time to come!

Thank you so much for everything, Charles. We are so pleased with the pictures you captured of our special day; they truly document the day in its entirety and we can see the story behind each image. From initial contact through to receipt of our photos, the service you provided was first class. You are a lovely, talented man who made us feel totally at ease. We consider ourselves so lucky that we found you as we could not have asked for better!

We absolutely LOVE the photos Charles took of our wedding at Highcliffe Castle. We will certainly have our work cut out trying to decide which to include in the album he's creating for us, but we're already working on it and are so happy to have them all to keep to remember our special day. Not being able to be everywhere at all times throughout the day, we also now have some new moments to be able to remember that we would otherwise have missed, so HUGE thanks again for capturing all of our loved ones and happy memories so incredibly well. We will treasure these for a lifetime. Lots of love, Dan & Maria xx

We absolutely loved our wedding photos! Charles was brilliant, from start to finish! All our guests commented on how good he was and that they didn't even notice he was there half the time. We still recommend him now 4 years on!

We have seen Charles' work at 3 of our friends weddings and decided we would book him for ours. The best decision ever. Before the big day we met with Charles a couple of times to discuss the day and what he would be doing. Charles even gave us a lesson in how to pose for pictures! Charles spent the day with us, the morning with me whilst I was getting ready and then all day just past the first dance.

You wouldn't even know he was there. He even took us to mudeford quay for some photos after our food as the light was perfect. We can't wait to see the shots he has taken, the couple he showed us on the camera were fantastic. I would definitely recommend Charles Thorne Photography to anyone needing a photographer Thank you for creating the photo memories of our special day Love Matt and Claire Tranter. Xx

Charles was our Wedding Photographer in 2011 and he was amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, his pictures were perfect and captured the day perfectly. I highly reccomend Charles, as he managed to get two unphotogenic people to look their best in difficult circumstances xxx

A great wedding photographer with a interest in landscapes on the side. Charles gave us wonderful memories of a perfect day, giving us a mix of relaxed and more formal photos. Would not hesitate to recommend him!

Thank you Charles for capturing our wedding day for us. We would highly recommend Charles. He is very friendly and helped us feel relaxed in front of the lens by arranging a pre wedding shoot that we really enjoyed. His professional nature and the quality of his albums and presentation is superb. He goes above and beyond to create perfect memories.

Charles taken a number of pictures of our family over the years. Amazing photos and knows just how to get the kids characters to come out in the pics. Must get some more done!

Charles took our wedding photos 13 years ago, and we have used him a few times since for photos of the kids and family gatherings. We have always been impressed with his calm professional approach, and the quality of work he produces.

Charlie took our wedding photos and we were very pleased with the result. Beautiful pictures that really captured the spirit of the day. His unobtrusive style meant that he somehow managed to capture everything we wanted without interrupting the day. Perfect memories and natural, happy photos. I couldn't recommend Charlie more highly.

Great photography session with my two children in June - Charles managed to capture some lovely photos - no mean feat with a 12 month old and an 11 year old! Made us all feel very relaxed from the second we met. Thoroughly recommend.

Charles photographed our engagement shoot and our wedding day. He is a very friendly and relaxed photographer which in turn makes us feel happy and relaxed! He gave us advice on the best ways to stand / walk / tilt our head to optimize our positioning for a great photo. Our photos are beautiful - thank you Charles!

Charles is an experienced, skilled photographer. He has a knack for capturing those beautiful, candid moments and I can highly recommend him to record your special memories.

Hi Charles, just found your details on Google and wanted to thank you again. We can't believe its nearly 10 years ago since our wedding, and your pictures are as perfect as the day itself. It's good to see your new website, and will recommend you as often as we can. Thanks again.
