Do you travel for weddings?

I am more than happy to travel for your wedding. I’m originally from Lancashire, now based in the Malvern Hills, near Gloucestershire, so I can be more central to serve the whole of the UK and Europe.

Travel is included for all UK weddings. For Destination weddings travel and accommodation will be required.

How do you photograph and guide couples on their wedding day?

On the actual wedding day I like to follow the natural flow of your wedding, working in a documentary, relaxed and unobtrusive way, so you can enjoy your day to the fullest. For the majority of the day you will hardly notice me. I would always recommend a little time for fun and free-spirited editorial photography, that’s gently guided.

That’s the experience I want for you: the freedom to live your wedding day fully, beautifully directed when appropriate, while I preserve it exactly as it felt.

He provided samples promptly after the day and the full set of photos came in a lovely USB gift box which was a nice touch. The prices are excellent value for money. We would highly recommend Robert for your wedding.

Virginia & Matthew – Mytton Fold Wedding Clitheroe Lancashire

We booked Robert as our wedding photographer based on his high quality, vibrant photos and we couldn’t be happier with our choice! He captured our wedding so beautifully and managed to make the most awkward of couples look like naturals! Apart from a few posed pictures, we completely forgot he was there- he seemed to just melt into the background but somehow still managed to capture many key candid moments of us and our guests. He was very accommodating of all our requests, both in the lead up to and on the day. The sample photos were stunning and much better than we could have hoped for, can’t wait to see the rest!

Nicola & Roger – Bashall Barn Wedding Clitheroe Lancashire

We found Robert on and after seeing his work we booked him promptly! We had a phone conversation before the wedding about what we would like and he was friendly and laid back. He was open to get all kinds of shots on the day and we love the shots that he has sent us!

 

Terry & Melanie – Broadoaks Wedding Windermere Cumbria

We were looking for our wedding photographer and this gentleman’s name came up. I messaged a couple of photographers and Robert from True Love Optics got back to me, after a brief first conversation we just knew by his passion he was going to be the right man for the job. Robert was an absolute gentleman from start to finish, seamlessly doing his job with out being known, his manor, patience and calmness are just a few of his qualities. It’s fair to say we’ve just received our photos and are blown away by his work and attention to detail, he has captured our love and beauty of the day and moments to cherish. Stunning work and I’d recommend him for any occasion. Many thanks Robert from True Love Optics.

Cait & Dave – The Glass House Staining Blackpool

Best photographer ever! Robert was absolutely amazing for our wedding. He made us both feel at ease as normally we don’t like having our pictures taken. He was so patient with us, our children and also all the guests for the group pictures. Robert was very professional but also very friendly and welcoming, he had a laugh and a joke with us which made things so comfortable. Robert’s suggestions for pictures were great and he incorporated the venues and the views perfectly – he definitely knows his stuff! We are so glad we booked Robert as our wedding photographer as we having the most amazing photos for forever memories of our special day. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer we 100% recommend Robert (TrueLoveOptics)

Rob & Kirsty – Astley Hall Wedding Chorley Lancashire

Robert captured our wedding and the shots he has shared with us are spectacular (especially the one with the daffodils!). He was great to work with and made us feel completely at ease throughout the day. He blended into the background during the ceremony and celebrations, yet somehow managed to catch all the special, candid moments. His eye for detail and ability to capture genuine emotion really shines through in the photos. Highly recommend Robert to anyone looking for a talented and professional wedding photographer.

Absolutely brilliant photographer, made our day a breeze fitting the photos in without keeping us from enjoying our day at the correct times in the day. Very professional easy going and patient with us the photos we’ve received we couldn’t of asked for better and would highly recommend rob for anyone wanting a photographer and will no doubt see rob at our friends future weddings should they require a photographer as we have recommended him for 2 weddings coming up which once they see our photos will be surely using his services thanks again Rob top man

Jess & Daniel – Hawkstone Hall Wedding Shropshire

Thank you so so much Rob. You are clearly such a professional and competent photographer and you provided an excellent service throughout our special day. Your experience was clear from how well you placed yourself for all the key moments during our wedding. Rob’s calm demeanour helped us feel relaxed and never frantic or stressed out. We felt safe in the fact our day was being captured on camera as best as it possibly could be. We received our photos in a timely manner. 10/10 would recommend True Love Optics as a wedding photographer.

Amy & Leona – Lodore Falls Wedding Keswick Cumbria

I don’t have the words to do justice for how amazing Rob was on our wedding day and how at ease he made us feel. We booked Rob for half a day as we had disposable cameras for the guests during the evening time – Rob arrived early and had such a chill/calming presence from the offset. During the ceremony he captured our guests and many special moments without us even noticing he was there. Then during the actual ‘photos’ part of the day he was efficient and direct which our guests appreciated as it meant that they could enjoy some of their own time too once they had got the photos they wanted with us. Rob then kindly took us to some of the best photo locations in the surrounding area, and was wonderful to converse with the whole time. There are many highlights from our special day and getting to work with such a wonderful human is certainly one of them! For the price point and what Rob brings to the table is unbelievable value and we couldn’t recommend him more. If you’re looking for a photographer for your wedding, congratulations of finding the gem that is True Love Optics! 📸 All the best – Leona and Amy

Shona & John – Delta Hotels Preston Marriott Wedding Lancashire

We’ve just received our photos from Robert and we’re absolutely blown away and so happy with every single photo. Robert put us and our guests at complete ease from the offset, meaning that we could get shots that we’ll cherish forever. I’m not a natural at posing for pictures but Robert’s calm and down to earth approach helped me relax and made it feel easy to get some wonderful pictures. We’ve also got some adorable shots with my partner’s 16 year old dog, Smithy as Robert was great at getting Smithy’s attention.
We felt able to get every possible photo combination we could have wanted as Robert was very patient and willing to help with whatever was needed. I love how natural so many of the shots are as Robert was very discrete in capturing all the natural moments such as greeting guests and seeing each other at the end of the the aisle. Last thing to mention is Robert’s attention to detail: making sure the background, lighting and positioning of every single photo was totally spot on – which they all absolutely are!
Genuinely couldn’t recommend Robert @ True Love Optics enough. Many thanks from Mr and Mrs Porter

Aimee & Dale – The Cragwood Hotel Wedding Windermere Cumbria

Rob was our wedding photographer and he was incredible! Our photographs are stunning, with a good mix of editorial photographs and candid moments. On the day, I hardly noticed Rob was there (in the nicest way!) and when taking pictures of me and my bridesmaids getting ready he was not in the way and very polite. I would recommended Rob to anyone that asks! Thank you so much for capturing our big day, Aimee and Dale
