About Us

Hi, I'm John
​
I have always loved photography since I was 19, a long time ago, when I got my first Fuji SLR camera.
​​
Many years ago I worked for a professional studio as a wedding photographer using a medium format/film camera, I soon found
out that most of my clients were friends or people who came to me through word of mouth or recommendations and I didn't need a studio to get wedding assignments, but I'm always grateful for the experience it gave me.
​
There is more to being a wedding photographer than just being able to point a camera at someone. Sometimes it can be like "herding cats", BUT I love the interaction with people on such a happy day!
​
Then, as so often happens in life, I had a family and another career to pursue, but now I have returned to what has always been a passion for me; photography.
​
As a father and daughter business we blend the traditional with modern techniques. We think it's a combination that works!

About Us
Hi, I'm Rachel
​
I am the owner of Pitcher Pitcher Events.
Before I started Pitcher Perfect back in 2017, photography had always been a hobby of mine.
You could say photography runs in our family as my Dad was a professional photographer when he was my age.
Throughout my teens, I studied and went on trips to develop my own photography skills.
​
After helping my brother out with various photography jobs on the side of my main job as childcare assistant, I decided this was something I wanted to do full time.
Using what I had learnt from my Dads business skills and my brothers photography know how, Pitcher Perfect was then created.
​
I'm a romantic person at heart so being able to be a part of a couples special day is the perfect job for me.
The photobooth is always great fun (especially when we're dragged into it by the guests). I love shopping around for new props that I know will make great photos!
​
I'm also dog obsessed! You'll usually find me taking pictures and spoiling my cockapoo, Baxter.

Hi I'm Matt,
I've been a professional photographer for over 15 years.
As a kid I loved going out and taking photos but I first took photography seriously when I had the opportunity to go to South Africa to race cars and go on a safari.
After purchasing my first DSLR I soon became interested in photographing people which taught me a whole new skill set which eventually developed into my love for photographing weddings!
​
Back in 2014 I became aware that there was a new aspect of photography - drones!
After a theory course at Heathrow followed by another course near Swindon, I became a licenced drone pilot too!
​
At home I have a labradoodle called Jessie who thinks she is one giant lap dog! I'm quite an active person and enjoy going to the gym. I also love planning travel photography trips to gain stock images and to enjoy a mini holiday!
​
I'm here to help out as a back up photographer and a videographer.
