To get the very best photos from your wedding you’ve really got to hire an experienced photographer that produces images you absolutely adore, and also one you can totally trust. I’ve shot more than 600 weddings so am very experienced. And from the feedback my past couples have given me, they definitely trusted me to do a great job on their big day. Scroll down to read what just a few of them had to say…

“Ed photographed our wedding perfectly!

We absolutely loved his laid back style of photography, not having to spend hours posing for pictures but capturing the fun of the day instead! It was exactly what we wanted.

Thanks Ed!.”

Josie + Matt // DEWSALL COURT WEDDING

“A-m-a-z-i-n-g!

We knew from the first moment we saw Ed's website that we wanted him to photograph our wedding. We were looking for someone creative, fun and passionate about capturing magical moments, and that’s exactly what we got!”

Matt + Steph // NORTHAMPTON VILLAGE HALL WEDDING

“From our very first interaction Ed was very responsive, professional, funny and understanding.

We are a gay couple and Ed was really cool and supportive. You’d be surprised how awkward some people can be about romantically photographing two dudes!”

Sam + Brian // CRIPPS BARN WEDDING

“We have just had our wedding photos back from Ed, and they have surpassed every hope we had for them.

They're not only brilliantly shot (I mean, Ed, please take EVERY photo of me for the rest of my life), but they're a full documentary memory of the day.

Every little detail is captured, and he's somehow managed to snap the exact personality of each and every guest. They're absolutely incredible.”

Nat + James // THE LORDSHIP PUB WEDDING

“Hiring Ed was a great decision. We didn't want boring photos, we just wanted a photographer to capture the mood of the day.

On the day, as it was close the beginning of lockdown, Ed was super careful with us and our guests while still capturing great photos and moments.

With Ed we got more than we could have asked for. We cannot recommend Ed enough!”

Silvia + Anya // THE ZETTER TOWNHOUSE WEDDING

“All I can say is Ed is THE BEST!

We wanted someone with a passion for photography and someone who would make us feel at ease, Ed was everything we could have asked for, and more!

He honestly made the day for us and we couldn’t love our photos more, we will treasure our memories forever.

If you’re looking for a professional, creative, unique and fun wedding photographer then he is your man, you won’t be disappointed!”

Jen + Bryan // VEGAS ELOPEMENT



“Ed, Honestly I am trying to put into words how much we love the photos and how grateful we are, but I am finding myself stuck - which for someone who garbles 120 words a minute usually, is not something I say often. 

The whole process has been a dream, honestly. It's really odd how circumstance meant we were just unable to meet pre-wedding, but yet you just felt like part of the family on the day. Everyone that attended has commented how laid back and relaxed you made them feel, and that definitely shines through on the shots.

I myself am a millennial stuck in a cycle of constantly trying to obtain 'perfection' when it comes to photos of myself, due to the way that my generation are forced to act when it comes to things such as social media - and I was so nervous to see the photos without my usual hodge-podge of VSCO and Instagram filters. It's so insane how uneasy losing control over the camera when it came to portraits of myself made me feel. But you have honestly flipped that upside down; I can't even fathom the fact that some of the shots you've taken are actually Ale and myself - they look like they've been pulled straight out of a NYLON shoot.

My dad commented that the whole photo set looks like a collection of stills from Reservoir Dogs, and my mum chimed in saying she got a real Wes Anderson feel from a lot of them. This alone sums up all we could have possibly dreamed for.

I cannot wait to show these photos to our grandkids when our tattoos are faded and wrinkled and we're trying to prove how cool we once were, seriously they are beautiful.

You've outdone yourself, 110%. Thank you 50,000,000 times.”

Hev + Ale // HACKNEY TOWN HALL WEDDING

“Photography is Chris’ passion so we knew finding the right wedding photographer wouldn’t be the easiest task. So we were super lucky that not long into our wedding planning journey we happened to bump into Ed at Most Curious Wedding Fair on Brick Lane. We were first struck by his photographic style and the couples we saw in his photos - gorgeous people at quirky weddings who looked like they were having so much fun captured in the most striking yet natural way. We were then bowled over by Ed - without doubt one of the nicest guys you’re ever likely to meet.

We told him a few details about our wedding plans and he was genuinely excited and wanted to know more, not worrying about the other couples who were walking past and he was potentially missing out on. We knew instantly that he was the one - a quick chat on the way home and we dropped him an email to confirm the date. Honestly one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From initial communications, to our engagement shoot in Suffolk and then onto the Wedding day itself we could not fault Ed; his passion, his humbleness and how bloody amazing he is behind a camera! Our wedding was never going to be remotely traditional - instead it would be more about an incredible bunch of people; our closest friends and family having so much fun and sharing our incredible day.

The photos have perfectly captured every detail, every smile, laugh and all the love in the world.  Ed felt like one of our guests, he has a great sense of humour and made everyone feel so at ease. Ed - we honestly cannot thank you enough for memories we’ll treasure forever but we’re also sad that we won’t get to hang out with you more!”

Gemma & Chris // ELMLEY NATURE RESERVE WEDDING

"Hi Ed,  We just wanted to touch base and say thank you.

We were so over the moon when you agreed to shoot our wedding day and then suddenly the day was here. You were just awesome! 
You made us both feel totally at ease and we instantly felt so natural around you, being able to be completely ourselves. 
You were such a calming influence and truly did feel like part of our family. 

Thank you for taking us off into the field (although that sounds weird... and to the wood pile.... that sounds even weirder). 
Cheers also for staying so much later than I'm sure was intended when we were running late. You didn't have to but we appreciate it enormously. 
The photos we've seen so far are stunning and can't quite believe how good they are.... although we expected nothing less. 

On one hand we didn't even notice you being there at times and on the other hand we felt your presence immensely and were very pleased that was the case. 
You already feel like a great mate and we're certainly now in the Ed Godden Fan Club! 

We're so sad that Thursday is over but so pleased it all went so well and we truly had the best day of our lives! We'll always remember you being a huge part of it! 
We couldn't be more excited to see the rest of the photos as and when they are ready and look forward to keeping in touch as best we can, maybe having a beer every now and then :) 

Sending you masses of love from 2 very soppy buggers....The Burnhams xx"

Gabby & James // CRIPPS BARN WEDDING

"Dear Ed, We want to say a huge thank you for capturing our special day so uniquely and staying so true to us as a couple, and the vibe of the day.

You were the first thing we booked for our wedding as we fell in love with your work instantly and for us, the right photographer who would get us was so important, and you didn't disappoint! The photos are simply stunning and I still get comments almost daily off people about how amazing they are now, 2 months on! You gave us such a hard task choosing some to frame as all of them are firm favourites. Thanks a million, we will recommend you to anyone.
