Aboutout
Hello, thank you for visiting our wedding photography website. Photography is something that I have been passionate about since I was about twelve years old. After leaving college, my first full time job was working for Lancashire Constabulary, in the scenes of crime department, after which, in 1975, I began work as a young assistant photographing portraits and weddings with a studio in Reading. I then joined the television industry, embarking on a career as a location cameraman with ITV West in Bristol. However, after eighteen years I began experiencing the mid life crisis and decided I needed a change and so left to pursue a freelance career producing corporate videos. Unfortunately, this did little for my creative aspirations and so, in 2003 I decided to return to my first love of wedding photography.
With more than thirty years experience behind a camera lens, combined with my earlier experience in photography, I was convinced I could offer an exceptional wedding photography service, one that reflects my own style and one that is based around some of the finest wedding albums available.
I work with my wife Joan, and believe a husband and wife team is an asset when photographing couples on such a special day. I am passionate about my work, constantly strive to offer a service that surpasses my clients' expectations and above all, we absolutely love what we do! I also believe that specialising in wedding photography is important, because I don't get bogged down with other types of work and I'm able to concentrate on one wedding at a time.
I understand it's important for couples to maintain control of their wedding budget and so I have developed the business around a number of photography packages that are all completely inclusive, so when you see our prices, you know there's no need to spend any more than you have to.
Having started Howard Keith Photography I was determined to offer only the best possible wedding photography service to couples, and I hope that this website is a successful showcase for what I believe to be my own 'look' and style. You can find further information on our info page, or why not get in touch for an informal chat, I think you'll be surprised at how friendly we are!
