Jake Bufton Full Description
Favouring a documentary approach, my rich and earthy style has developed over the last 5 years. Understated and organic, my love of nature is infused in my photography. I jump at the chance to take photos or film couples outdoors and often work with couples who feel the same way. I focus on giving you photos that capture the beauty of the day as it was. You won't find me asking you to pop your head out from behind a tree (my parents wedding album is the best) or contorting yourself into poses you didn't think were possible. Instead, I focus on down to earth candid photography and videography.

A calming influence on the day!
Jake photographed our wedding during a rainstorm and his patience and good spirits were second to none. Our photos turned out brilliantly and not only do we have the ones requested, we now have some unique pictures due to last minute weather changes that we wouldn’t have even thought of. Nothing was too much trouble throughout the whole process. Thanks so much Jake!

Couldn’t have asked for better!
Couldn’t recommend Jake enough! From the outset his communication was exemplary and prompt. He understood our vision and any specific requests we had. On the day, Jake really fitted in and made everyone feel at ease. He was a calming presence throughout the day from start to finish! The photos were absolutely beautiful and we were over the moon with them.

The best & loveliest photographer
Jake was our wedding photographer in July, and we are so happy we chose him. Thank you so much for the beautiful photographs, Jake! You captured the day perfectly, and we absolutely love the images. You were so lovely and friendly from the moment we met you and interacted with all of our guests, who gave glowing reviews of your approach on the day. You worked so well with our videographer also. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer!

THE BEST!
Jake really is the definition of 'going above and beyond' for his clients. From the first conversation with Jake we knew we had found the right videographer - he was highly personable, friendly and clearly has so much passion for his craft. No request seemed like too much for Jake- he is extremely easy going and very reasonably priced, especially for the high quality of his output. Speaking of which - we couldn't have been more thrilled with our wedding video. He captured our day so perfectly and are so grateful to have such a beautiful time capsule of our special day. Thank you Jake for being such a legend!!!

The best wedding photographer!
We couldn’t recommend Jake enough as a wedding photographer. He captured our wedding day in February this year so beautifully. Jake is so friendly and easy to get along with, he fit seamlessly into our day and felt more like a guest/friend than a supplier. He blended into the background on the day and it never felt like having a camera in your face but he captured the most beautiful moments and memories of our day. Jake took time to get to know us and what we wanted before the day and this combined with his friendly and relaxed approach really helped to put us both at ease in front of the camera. The photos came out so beautifully and are such a gorgeous reminder of our day which we will treasure for a lifetime. Thank you Jake!

THANK YOU JAKE!
Jake was the most considerate, easygoing and joyful wedding photographer! He was incredibly open to taking numerous picture requests (and I mean MANY), patient as I showed him my hundreds of Pinterest photography inspirations and understanding when we had to reschedule some photos due to the groom being ill. His professionalism and willingness to please were evident throughout. As for the quality of work, his Portfolio speaks for itself; Sam and I couldn’t recommend him enough—thank you, Jake!

Could not have asked for better!!
Jake was such a pleasure to work with as our wedding photographer and videographer from start to finish. We both, and all our family and friends, said how comfortable he made us feel and how professional he was. We got EXACTLY what we wished for with our photos and videos and really could not have asked for better/more!!

Beautiful and Emotive Highlights Film
We are absolutely blown away by the beautiful wedding highlights film that Jake has created for us and we are so glad that we chose him to be our videographer! He is such a talent and has managed to capture the day so beautifully including every little special detail and moment that we will cherish forever. He fitted in to the day seamlessly and his fun, friendly and relaxed vibe put everyone at ease, which is evident in the film as everyone looks so happy, relaxed and completely unaware that they’re being recorded! He was also very kind enough to share the full recording of the speeches with us as we couldn’t hear them properly on the day, which we’ll be forever grateful for. It has been really emotional watching the film with family and friends and we can’t thank Jake enough for enabling us to relive the day through his beautiful work.

Jake was great all day, absolutely effortless in his ability to make you feel relaxed and comfortable. He was extremely friendly, polite and patient. All of this together with the fact that we are over the moon with the end product!

FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

One of my most memorable weddings was Octavia's. I left Bristol to head for the London to film the wedding and after a beautiful ceremony, the couple took a rowing boat down the Thames to be met by bag pipes and a samba band! The speeches were brilliant and heartfelt, just want you want as a photographer and filmmaker!

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Documentary, natural, candid, emotive and people-focused.

What about your business are you most proud of?

I'm most proud of my ability to put couple's at ease when in front of the camera. As a camera shy person myself, I know what it can feel like not wanting to have your picture taken.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

When planning your day and finding a moment for couple photos, make sure you don't organise them straight after the ceremony. That's your time to relax, celebrate with your friends and enjoy a well-deserved drink.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

I've captured a wedding which had a ceremony that included a literal tying of the knot - "an ancient Celtic tradition called the Handfasting Ceremony". It was absolute stunning and a style of ceremony I'd not seen before.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Once a couple reaches out, I'll set up a pre-wedding consultation where we can get to know each other and have a chat about your day. After that I'll send over a contract which is returned with a deposit of £150 and then the date is secured! Then we can stay in contact and have another chat a month before the wedding to go over any changes.
