TESTIMONIALS

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know that the album and photo's arrived safely a couple of Saturday's ago. Apologies I've taken so long in letting you know but we have been away.Mike and I are really pleased with the pictures - they're a really good record of the day, which seems like a lifetime ago now! Many thanks once again, and if I know of anyone getting married, or indeed needing a photographer, I certainly wont hesitate to recommend you. Best Wishes,"

Thanks so much for doing them so quickly!

I am so so pleased with them and I know David will be too so thank you loads"

Sarah Knight - Bride

"Just a little note to say a huge thank you for our fantastic album. It's really beautiful and we're both delighted with it. I don't think either of us has seen better wedding photo's than our own - infact, recently married couples, who see our pictures are quite jealous! So thankyou again for your brilliant work. It was lovely meeting (and posing for) you."

Alyson Colesell - Bride

"From start to finish your professionalism and relaxed attitude has been a God send! Your style and approach was very reassuring and meant we could relax and enjoy the day.

We are extremely pleased with the album and the memories of the day come flooding back whenever we look at it."

Chris Colesell Groom

Thanks again for everything Matt, we couldn't have wished for a better person to photograph what was the best day of our lives. Take care and see you soon."

Sadie Fraser - Bride

"Received the proofs, and they are beautiful. It's going to be a tricky job picking them!"

Sarah and Andrew Bereton - Bride and Groom

"Thanks for our wedding album, the album for Tim's parents and the reprints we ordered. We are really, really pleased with the final album and are glad that we can keep the two albums with the proofs. The main album allows us to have a lovely album of our very special day with lots of good size prints. (It also means we now no longer have to subject friends and family that are interested to looking through several hundred prints). The proof albums, on the other hand, provide a great record of the whole day. So thanks very much for helping us keep our memories of such a memorable day alive!"

Ellen & Tim - Bride and Groom

"The photos arrived safely - the album is beautiful, thanks so much."

Regards. Sandra Baker - Bride

"Hi Matt... Just been looking back at our photos, I had forgotten how fab they were, thanks again! And now want to order some more to put around our new house!"

Thanks. Juliet & Rob Hart - Bride and Groom

"Many thanks for our absolutely stunning final album. We're delighted with the end result and believe you have captured the story and emotions of our wedding day. Thank you for your creativity, hard work and good humour - we've really enjoyed working with you. I'm sure we'll see you again - we'll continue to recommend you to all of our friends."

Sara and Gary Emmerton - Bride and Groom

"Sue and I are sitting in our lounge, half way through a bottle of wine on our second viewing of the photo's and they are absolutely fantastic. Just wanted you to know that-brilliant. We love the way you have laid them out and the way you have captured the whole day is perfect. Couldn't have been better. We cannot thank you enough, its wonderful, its really, really wonderful. These are something to really treasure. We are absolutely delighted, so thanks again, keep in touch..."

Ian and Sue Kinnear - Groom and Bride

"Hi Matt - Could we put in an order for some piccies for Christmas presents?.......p.s. Everyone absolutely LOVES the photos and thinks you did a fantastic job!! Me and Alessandro can't stop looking at them!"

Sara and Gary Emmerton - Bride and Groom

"We would like to thank you once again for your excellent work and making our day so special."

Anna and Neil Saunders - Bride and Groom

"Just to say a big thanks, you managed to not only capture the magic of our special day, but somehow make it timeless, and to do so without fuss.We've not been able to stop looking at the pics since we picked them up and I guess picking the final 80 will be some task. Thanks again."

Susan and Jag - Bride and Groom

"In 2001 I got married in Lancaster (James and Elli Cartwright) and you did our wedding photographs. We went to the Ashton Memorial and had some photographs taken. We ordered a photograph from you and I think we even paid for it, but never got back to you about collecting it... Oh and by the way. In the last 4 years of being married we've not found anyones wedding photos as good as the ones you did for us! Thanks."

James Cartwright - Groom

"Wedding photos are brilliant - Sue and I are delighted. They're perfect but, boy will we have a job selecting for our album."

Sue and Ian Kinnear - Bride and Groom

"Just a quick note to thank you so much for our amazing wedding photographs.The proof albums are just fantastic-we can't stop looking through them. There are so many brilliant photo's. Its going to take a long time to choose our final album! Thanks for all your hard work. The photo's just bring together all our memories of what was an unforgettable day...."

Abbie and Paul Jackson - Bride and Groom

"I write to thank you for everything you did to record so beautifully the happiness at the wedding ceremony at the Merchant Taylor's Hall and the reception at the Pavilion Hotel, York, when our daughter, Clare, married Chris.

It really is difficult to know where to start a letter acknowledging a photographer's skill. It seems obvious to start with the photographs. and that will do for a start. They are wonderful; you have so obviously captured the mood of the occasion from the outset. Clare looks radiant and both are happy. Everyone that has spoken to us since the wedding day has enthused about the result of your work.

Your encouraging, confident influence started long before the ceremony. Your reputation precedes you, even with the dress designer, and Chris and Clare were reassured by your approach and suggestions for the day; they all worked so well. On the day, you were the epitome of professional calm and confidence, directing when necessary and spontaneous at other times. Your approach and the results we wanted required you to blend into the background and yet miss nothing that could be important to record the day, and you did exactly that.

Clare and Chris had the satisfaction that their memorable day had been recorded with such good taste. Everyone that should have been included was included and we have a record to treasure for years to come. The effusion of praise after the day endorsed the style and elan of the occasion. As parents, we received the best for our daughter. What more could we ask? Thank you."

Malcolm Howells - Father of the Bride

"What can we say? Fantastic!!!! The proofs are amazing, how on earth are we going to choose from these for the album? There are so many superb shots, and all the emotions have come flooding back. You have done a magnificent job, thank you so much.......Many many thanks for such wonderful results, and for your patience."

Clare & Chris Caldwell - Bride and Groom

"I got the albums delivered to work safely, and needless to say there wasn't much work done for the rest of the day! We both absolutely love the albums, you captured the day brilliantly and everyone who has seen the albums has been absolutely blown away by them. The photographs were one of the most important things for me in terms of planning and I'm so glad we picked you. Its going to be tough to decide which one gets the coveted "top of the telly" spot-we might have to buy a bigger TV!"

Sandra Baker - Bride

"Just dropping you a line to express our many thanks to you for presenting us with such fantastic photo's. The results have far exceeded our expectations. Given so much choice we expect it will take us some time to decide on the final selection for the album and of course we will have to do the rounds to see who else wants to order reprints.Once again thanks for making our day a little bit special."

Christine and Martin Noble - Bride and Groom

"We'd also like to thank you for the wonderful photo's that you took of the day. We absolutely love them and are not sure how we are going to choose only 80. You really have surpassed our expectations with the photo's and we both feel that they have exactly captured each part of the day very well. Thanks Very Much."

Nicola and Rob - Bride and Groom

"Thanks again for the most beautiful album in the world!"

Marcuss Guess - Groom

"Hope you are well. Just wanted to drop you a quick line to say how thrilled we are with our wedding photos. We get more and more from them each time we look at them and there's been laughter and tears (happy tears that is!) Thank you! You are so talented and it was a privilege to have you as part of our day. Thank you so much..."

Rachel and Sanjay - Bride and Groom

"Just to say thanks so much for capturing such special moments of our wedding day - memories that we can recall whenever we look at our album..."

Bridget and Ian Nickson - Bride and Groom

"I have finally got to see your wonderful photographs from Becky and Spiro's wedding in September and would love to get some copies.......many thanks."

Ed Brooks - Usher

"Thank you so much for all the hard work you poured into our beautiful wedding photos.The album has been much admired..."

Samantha McLellan - Bride

"I would like to order some prints from the proofs from the wedding of Hal and Clare Caldwell on 20 August 2004 at Buckworth....Loved the whole set of proofs - just a fantastic record of the whole day - thank you so much...All the best."

Eveline Fallshaw - Mother of the Groom

"Hi Matt, Love the Album. Have gone all misty eyed and teary so must be good. Every one of my friends who've seen it wish they'd known about you when they took the plunge."

Sarah Mackay - Bride

"Dear Matt, Sorry that it has taken us so long to write and properly thank you for photographing our wedding on 4th Sept at Wrenbury Hall, and for our brilliant proof albums. When we collected them from you I couldn't wait to have a second look, then a third and a fourth with a glass of champagne to celebrate! I have lost count of how many times I have looked at them so far, and I still enjoy them everytime. All our friends and family who have seen them have loved them too. The phrase "the best wedding photo's I've ever seen" has been heard more then once! We still have lots more people who want to see them-they are beginning to get quite a reputation! So you were right when you said that we would probably hang onto the proof albums for a while before choosing the photos to go in the final album. We have several absolute favourites but its going to be hard to pick just 80. They have also made us appreciate just how busy you were on the day-I never thought it was possible to be in several places at one time-but you seem to have captured everything! Thank you so much!! We look forward to getting in touch once we have made our selections! In the mean time we hope you have a great Christmas and New Year."

Suzanne and Andy Benn

"Now we've had a few weeks to settle back down to earth, we wanted to say a big thank you so much for the wonderful wedding pictures-they are fantastic! We had every confidence you'd do a great job and we're absolutely delighted with the pictures. The day went so fast and you have captured it all (even the bits we missed!) so we have a complete story. We haven't tired of looking at them and now face the tricky decision of exactly which pictures to put on our wall-not to mention the album. I hope this letter is suitably gushy enough to express our thanks-you are an extremely talented bloke!"

Very Best Wishes Sarah and Paul Case - Bride and Groom

"A wedding is six months to a year in the planning and is over in a matter of hours, all you are left with are memories and photographs...get the latter part wrong and there is little point in spending all that time planning. To that end we were overjoyed that you agreed to be our photographer. Thank you so much for producing the most amazing album and photographs, they have captured the mood and the detail of our big day wonderfully. We are thrilled and delighted by the results, our wedding pictures are simply perfect. You were worth every penny, our only regret is that we didn't pay to have you there for longer. You have a true talent and flair for photography; your style and approach to both people and objects is exactly what we were looking for."

Becky and Spiro Marcandonatos - Bride and Groom

"Thanks again for fantastic amazing pictures! We haven't tired of looking at them yet!... Many thanks."

Sarah Case - Bride

"Thanks for the pics they've arrived safe and sound. And they are absolutely fab... can't wait to get the album sorted. (I've picked 60 but I'm only half way through the first set of proofs!)"

Kate Pollitt - Bride

"I picked up the photographs from my sister last week.......I just wanted to say they are absolutely beautiful... I couldn't have asked for anything better... they are exactly what I wanted...I am so pleased....Richard loves them as well and has been showing everybody....thanks again they are absolutely fantastic."

Sophie Pagett - Bride

"Just a quick note to say we're both absolutely delighted with the proofs. We also had loads of the guests comment how great you were on the day - as well as the registrar taking a particular shine to you. I started to work through the proofs last night to try to make the selection for the album but realise it's harder than it looks! Thanks again."

Claire Flynn - Bride

"Thank you for the beautiful photographs we are really really pleased..."

Barbara Murray - Mother of the Bride

"Got the Proofs... thank you they are fantastic. Have yet to go through them with Hal and study them in full detail, but I love what you have done, thank you so much."

Clare Caldwell - Bride

"Matt, I just had to text to say the photographs are absolutely wonderful. I love them so I can't imagine how Sophie will feel! Thank you so much."

Tina - Bride's Sister

"I adore all the photos! Will be in touch shortly to try and pick our faves....."

Rachael Hunter - Portrait Client

"We are so sorry it's taken so long to write and thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such a fantastic wedding album. The design and layout is absolutely brilliant. As you may notice below, we had little Oliver at the end of May and it really has been so hectic. The timing has worked out so well, as all our friends and family have been able to view the album when they come to visit Oliver, and everyone has been so impressed, they loved it too! So thank you again we are both really happy."

Victoria and Mark Bishop - Bride and Groom

"Sorry to have taken so long in getting my order to you for Sally and Simon's wedding... The photos are lovely and I would love to order them all (I expect most Mothers of the Bride say the same). Thanks very much"

Val Glencross

"Just wanted to say thank you for yesterday. Loads of people commented on your non stop hard work. Everyone ever is getting engaged at the mo and am sure they will all want you to do their weddings when they see the results. Thanks again, we really appreciated it."

Sarah and Ian Mackey - Bride and Groom

"Sorry it has taken us ages to make our photo selection. You've just made it too hard for us! We are down to a selection of 80, but need to get it to 60... Once again thank you so much for the fantastic photo's, we are so pleased with them."

Nikki & Duncan Barraclough - Bride and Groom

"I've just got the album and wanted to say thank you - it is brilliant and well worth the wait! Stunning photos, beautifully laid out and the album itself is lovely. You've done us proud! With all best wishes."

Nicola Thunhurst - Bride

"Sally and Simon have been with us this weekend and we've been through the photos. They're wonderful! What an epic day. We just fancy rewinding and doing it all again! Well Done..."

Fiona - Bridesmaids Mum

"Many thanks - all the photo's of the wedding are great - they capture the happiness of the whole occasion."

Chris Milsom - Mother of the Groom

"Just to say that myself and Ray think the photographs are great and that you did a brilliant job. I have already got my sister in law (Kiran) asking for your number as well as several friends who are planning on getting married next year. Also my mum adores you as you have taken some very flattering photos of her during the day! Can't wait for the final album once we have picked out our favourites, I agree with you that the ones taken by the canal side have worked really well. Take care and we will speak to you soon."

Joanne and Ray Pabla - Bride and Groom

"With May fast approaching, the final piece of the jigsaw is complete with the delivery of our wedding album... and I have to say it is the most worthwhile wait I have ever had!

Simon and I wanted to write a little note to say a big thank you for doing such a fantastic job. Almost 4 months have passed since our big day and the memories were starting to fade but you have brought them back to life! Without sounding like "wedding bores" I know the album will now be an integral dinner party "piece" with coffees. Everyone comments on the outstanding colour, sharpness and how well you have captured the mood of the day. The passion and talent you have in your work really shines through and feeling relaxed and informal made a difference - more like having a friend being there than a photographer.

As I continue to look through the album over and over again I always notice some additional detail or how brilliantly you have captured a moment / personality.

Thank you so much for agreeing to be part of our day, words fail me on conveying our delight with the engagement photos and our wedding albums... all I can say is that we will be recommending you amongst our circle of friends (and sisters! no pressure Nicola!) and I am sure we will see you again soon. We wish you continued successes and will always be grateful and treasure such a special memory of our start in married life."

Michelle and Simon Doolan - Bride and Groom

"What can we say? Brilliant, Fantastic, Excellent. Thanks for everything, we love the photo's. Made our wedding day extra special."

Louise and Patrick O' Connor

"... just seen the photo's... they are fantastic. We are delighted."

Michele and Simon Doolan - Bride and Groom

"I cannot apologise enough for the delay in getting these orders back to you. The proofs have become quite a hit with many family, friends and colleagues asking to see them... Again I cannot thank you enough for the fantastic photographs."

Sarah Moroney - Bride

"Just wanted to congratulate you on taking such spectacular photos of the wedding at Arley. Zoe and Jonah are delighted with what they have seen so far and Zoe has advised me that if I would like my photos for Christmas I should place my order asap. Many thanks for your help."

Val Glencross - Mother of the Bride

"You have managed to capture our special day just how we imagined you would. The people, the location and the atmosphere come alive when we look at the beautiful pictures you have taken. Thank you for giving us something that will take us back to that day..."

Kerry and Russ Sampson - Bride and groom

"... the comments regarding your pictures have been overwhelming. Absolutely everyone who has seen them has said that they are the most stunning and spectacular set of pictures they have ever seen!"

Rachel Morgan - Bride

"... we are thrilled with the photo's and I know how impressed everyone has been. One of Jonny's work mates has booked you for next year after seeing them.

Not only are the photo's fantastic but you have a very easy going manner that made us all very relaxed on the day which is obviously very important. When I look at the results I can hardly remember you taking any of them.We had such a laugh and I get the impression you did too.

If you need me to speak to any respective customers then don't hesitate to give us a call, it would be a pleasure. You don't need good luck for the future because I'm sure your talent will speak for itself"

Louise Malek - Bride

"Just a quick note to say a big thank you for the wonderful job you did with our wedding photo's-some fantastic memories. And a big thanks too for putting us both at ease on the day - you were an integral part! Thank you."

Vicki and Andy Marshall - Bride and Groom

"WOW! The photos are AMAZING! Thank you soo much. We really have never seen such brilliant wedding photos - they really tell a story of the whole day and capture the atmosphere, particularly from the ceremony and the speeches. How do you do it? We can't wait to show everyone all the pics. Thank you again for such fantastic pictures"

Zoe and Jonah Jones - Bride and Groom

"Our photos are absolutely AMAZING - we love them - the majority of people that we have shown them to say that they are the best wedding photos that they have ever seen! Every time we look at them we notice something different and they completely re-live the day. No idea how we are going to choose which ones to put into our album as they are all fab. Thanks again"

Jayne Burrell - Bride

"We just want to thank you again for the photographs that are truly amazing. Everyone that has looked at them is completely amazed at how good they are, infact, without exception everyone has made the comment that they are the best wedding photos that they have ever seen!

To have that day captured so well in picture format is mind blowing and it means the world to us both.Your a nice bloke Matt and we hope your business does very well-we know it will-you deserve it!

Keep making dreams come true"

Wendy and Rod Martin - Bride and Groom

"Hope all's well! We are still proudly showing off our wedding photos to just about anyone who shows the slightest bit of interest! The reaction is amazing - everyone is truly astounded at how wonderful they are and how you have managed to capture the spirit and emotions of the day in photographic form - something we did not think possible."

Rod and Wendy Martin - Bride and Groom

"The proofs arrived safely on Friday.We spent most of the weekend looking at them, they are so beautiful. I never thought I could look so nice! I'm sure it makes all the difference having a photographer who makes you feel very comfortable and relaxed..."

Mark and Victoria Bishop - Bride and Groom

"Oh my god... They are brilliant, wonderful, really lovely... Captures it all and this is only a few... We can't wait to see all of them! Thanks so much. The photos are just wonderful... Really"

Lisa Hubbard - Bride

"Matthew, the preview photos are beautiful, you have bought tears to my eyes, they sum up the day! I can't wait to see the rest - so excited!! Look forward to hearing from you soon. Take care and thanks again. Regards"

Victoria Bishop - Bride

"Anthony and I both wanted to thank you very much for the fantastic photographs - having seen a number of your proof books, I didnt imagine that I would be as impressed with my photos of my own wedding, mainly because it is difficult to like pictures of yourself I think! Therefore, the fact that we love practically every single photograph is remarkable!

Our parents and friends are having great difficulty in choosing the photos that they want printed (my bridesmaid Jen wanted a couple, I now have a list of 14 that she wants for herself!) so it may be sometime before we put in a bumper order.

Anyway, our sincere thanks for a job extremely well done - I hope that you enjoyed the day as much as is possible when you are working, we had a whale of a time!

Regards."

Kate Mazzag - Bride

"The wedding album is fantastic. We now have a fabulous memory of a wonderful day. Thank you"

Jennie and Leigh Rickett - Bride and Groom

"Dear Matt, thank you very much for the proofs - we are absolutely delighted with them, they look fantastic. All of the photographs are of a very high standard and some are simply superb! We hope you are well."

Christian & Nicola - Groom and Bride

"Just seen the proofs - they are absolutely fantastic, absolutely superb. Thank you"

David Jones - Father of the Bride

"Matt, Stunning, mate. Stunning.

Don't know what it is, but perhaps it's the fact that the pages are now stuck in and I can step back to view the photos with some perspective. Brought a tear to my eye actually as the whole book conveys exactly how the day was. Can you get a better pictorial definition of happiness? I caught myself smiling and grinning with each turn of the page.

The enlargement is equally great. The rich saturation of color was as I imagined it. While it's a shame my father is still a bit concealed, I can be happy in knowing that there is still the b/w version with 50% of his head. Thanks for cutting that deal and taking care of us (in reference to the wrinkled 1st colored print)...

Anyway, take care, hope to see you tomorrow, and stay in touch. Thanks again for the great gift of your eye."

Oliver Yeh - Groom

"Dear Mathew, do you remember me - the only man still using a Rolleiflex and tripod in 2003? Helen has just presented Sylvia with a framed print of the shot of the two of them - mother and daughter - marching along purposefully in step at the wedding, quite oblivious of the camera. Wonderful - the best mother and daughter shot I have ever seen or expect to see.

The proof album was equally impressive, so we are looking forward very much to seeing the final product. You produced exactly the style and standard of coverage that Helen and Oliver had in mind.

So many thanks for a highly skilled and professional performance and for your good natured acceptance of all that the day produced. It was a pleasure to meet you.

With best wishes"

Bert Whalley - Father of the Bride

"Wanted to drop you a line to say thanks again. We were going over the proofs just this past Sunday for probably the 15th time to choose the finals... it's never a chore. The photos you took were exactly as we had hoped to capture... a fly-on-the-wall approach capturing moods, facial expressions, people off guard, etc.

We had a couple close friends look at the proofs and they were angry. Angry because they never thought wedding photos could look so good and convey so much of the day... especially since they didn't even attend. (I suspect if our friend could get married again, she would just to get better photos!) She kept saying how the photos made everyone look so glamorous and model-like. (If she had only seen the aftermath in the wee hours of the barn.)

Lastly, if it's alright with you, I'd like to stay in touch... there may be opportunities to collaborate on projects professionally. I'll let you know well in advance if an opportunity pops up. I'm always looking to work with good resources."

Oliver Yeh - Groom

"We want to thank you for our beautiful wedding photographs. We know they will prompt wonderful memories for us in the years to come. We both had absolute confidence in you throughout the time you were involved with our wedding and have been happy to recommend you to others."

Sean and Catherine Connors - Bride and Groom

"Photographs arrived safely. They are absolutely fabulous... absolutely amazing."

John Clayton - Groom

"Thank you so much for the wonderful photographs. You have been, and will be recommended to everyone needing top quality memories of anything special to them, as our wedding was to us."

Jane and Mark Sharpe - Bride and Groom

"I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the beautiful album you put together. Honestly, you captured the day perfectly and provided us with some fantastic memories. I think what makes the album special is the time and effort you put in to it - from the actual day to the all the planning stages - the final product is a reflection of all your work. I could waffle on for pages Matt but Ian and I just wanted to let you know how fab we feel your work is."

Lucy and Ian Sibbald - Bride and Groom

"Oliver and I have been spending many a happy hour going over the albums of proofs you provided and we absolutely love them."

Helen Whalley - Bride

"Just wanted to extend my thanks for the fantastic album. We have had endless praise for your work. Keep well."

Jamie Mclean

"I thoroughly enjoyed looking at the proofs and found it very difficult to choose... I think you have done a fantastic job of recording the day in a unique and creative way and I genuinely felt that they were the best wedding pictures I've ever seen."

Sam Massey - Bridesmaid

"Just wanted to thank you so much for doing such a great job of taking such great photos of our wedding day. They are fantastic and a great souvenir of a great day. Thank you as well for staying on until 10pm at last minute decision.Thank you again - to a great photographer."

Catherine and Karl Rees - Bride and Groom

"Got the photos this morning, they are gorgeous! Thank you very much. If you ever need any more testimonials for your web site give us a call."

Yvonne & Simon Vowles

"We write to thank you for the fantastic album you have created to document our wedding.

We have spent many hours over Xmas walking through it with all the family. Without exception they have been amazed at your ability to capture the mood of the day. Every time we open the album we re-live the day and notice another piece of detail we had overlooked the last time.

We cannot thank you enough for creating such a fantastic diary of the day; we have so many pictures from the album that we are finding it difficult to pick out reprints for our selves!

We would also like to thank you for making photography such a natural part of the day rather than a chore, you were a pleasure to have at the wedding and the brilliant, relaxed pictures you have captured of our friends and family are a testament to this-quite amazing when you had to compete with the brides [magazine] photographer!

Without hesitation we would recommend you to our friends and family looking for fantastic, unobtrusive and fun photographs to capture the mood of the day.

If you need us to speak with potential customers we will do so with pleasure."

Emma & Pete Brown-Married - Bride & Groom

"Matt - thanks once again - the photographs are amazing"

Kay Corcoran - Bride

"Thank you so much for all your skill and diligence in providing us with so many wonderful memories of Jessica and martin's wedding. We all had a wonderful day and your work has perfectly captured the atmosphere. We genuinely hope you will be able to photograph Katy and Paul's wedding when the time comes!"

Kath & Barry Butler - Bride's Parents

"Thanks for the copy of the proofs, they are fabulous, it's a great record of the day."

Victoria Lawrance - Bride

"Thank you so much for what you have done for us - we will always have great pictures to remind us of our day."

Kirk & Talia Allen

"A very tardy note to say thanks for the album - we have been cooing over it for weeks now and everyone says it's very classy. Thanks again as well for being so patient with our jet setting ways and forgetful parents! We've been really lucky to have doing our pictures - a first class service at a very reasonable price.

(Any of the above comments should stand alone in a leaflet and are sincerely meant)

Hope you business goes from strength to strength - you deserve it."

Sarah & Matt Delargy - Bride & Groom

"The photos turned out exactly how we wanted as they tell the story of the day. They have also resulted in some excellent natural shots of people when they weren't looking at the camera.

We would like to say that we have been impressed with the efficient but relaxed way you have handled the whole job. In fact, your price was incredibly reasonable for what we have gained in terms of your time and the photos we have received.

Finally we would not hesitate to recommend you to friends and also professionally."

Jo & Dean Thomas - Bride & Groom

"A very sincere and long over due thank you for the beautiful wedding album. It is the most gorgeous souvenir from our wedding on 1st September last year, capturing the happiness and excitement of the day perfectly. We so appreciate your hard work from start to finish; your fun and unobtrusive work on the day, culminating in a beautiful album we'll always love looking back at. Relatives and friends have also said what a lovely, quality work the album is and we'll be seeing you soon with plenty of reprint orders. Once again a huge thank you."

Lisa & Daniel Hall - Bride & Groom

"Many thanks for the album, it looks great and we love it! Thank you so much for putting together such a great record of the day."
