What my couples say…

I know I don’t share enough of the comments I get from the couples I work with. I should be sharing what my couples say every time I get a message. I should be sharing all the wonderful feedback and testimonials. Sometimes it feels a bit boastful to be putting these words on social media or on my website. Which is crazy…this is my business and I should be sharing when I get such amazing messages!

It makes me massively proud and ridiculously happy when one of my couples takes the time to get in touch after their wedding day either directly or by leaving a google review. When they take the time to share what they think of their wedding photos and the experience of having me as their wedding photographer it makes me smile… a lot! I should be shouting from the rooftops every time I get a lovely email, or happy text message, or handwritten note. After all, how else will you know what it’s like having me as your photographer without reading what my couples say and checking out these great reviews?

So, with this in mind here you go. Today I am going to share some of the very lovely messages I have received from the couples whose weddings I have photographed. Here’s a little of what my couples say…

Zoe & Chris

“Just loveeeee how natural and beautiful the photographs are. The level of service received was simply amazing. We never had any worries with our Photographer and what made it even better was how comfortable we felt on our wedding day – we actually felt as though she was a guest at our wedding.”

Amena & Iman

“Fiona is incredible. The moment I saw her website and got the chance to meet her I was 100% sure she was the person I wanted to photograph our wedding. With an amazing personality, warm, and friendly, what’s not to love?! It was so important for us that we worked with someone we got on with. Her work is impeccable and her attention to detail is second to none. Fiona goes above and beyond her role as a photographer which we are eternally grateful for.”

Cassie & Anthony

“Fiona was a dream come true! She managed to capture our day just perfectly, giving us the right balance between natural and formal. She understood exactly what we wanted and has allowed us to relive our wedding day over and over again.”

Nadia & Chris

“From the first email reply, we knew we’d picked the right photographer! Fiona was so friendly, open and helpful that when it came to the actual day it was easy to be relaxed around her (which for someone who hates having their photograph taken this is really important!) She was non-intrusive and captured all the intimate moments and details of the day. Photography was one of the important parts of the day for us to look back on, and we are so happy we found Fiona to capture it just right.”

Lucia & Ralf

“We wanted to say a big THANK YOU!! It was just amazing having you and Jessy with us on our big day! It was a perfect day for both of us and we absolutely enjoyed every single minute – from getting ready to the ceremony till the first dance – because we had amazing and super professional people like you on our side!!”

Cady & Dave

“Aw Fiona! What can I say?! Amazing! Love every single photo so much 😍 You captured everyone, the mood and our relationships with our family and friends perfectly! Will write back in more detail soon but honestly thank you so much, we love them 🧡”

Helen & Neil

“Just a quick note to thank you again for your time on Saturday.  It was fantastic to have you there!  Organising the confetti line between back to back weddings at the registry office was no mean feat but I’m so glad we did it.  And your style was just what we wanted – capturing a few set shots but mostly just recording the day as it happened.”

Elizabeth & Howard

“We’ve just finished viewing the gallery. Wow! We are absolutely thrilled with the photos. THANK YOU SO MUCH, and Jesse, for the stunning shots that capture the wedding beautifully and tell the story of the day so well! We couldn’t be happier with the images. We’ve had many laughs seeing some of the funnier candid shots, and it’s been lovely to also see the images from when we were each getting ready too. Numerous really special moments throughout the whole gallery.”

 

Lujain & Badr

“Working with Fiona was an absolute pleasure. She gave me all the time I needed and always made sure I was comfortable. She made sure to personalize the experience to suit my needs, and gave many helpful suggestions to help me plan my day. The picture turned out great and I’m so happy with them. She continued to be very helpful and patient in the photo selection process. I’m so glad Fiona photographed my wedding, it was a wonderful experience, and the results exceeded all my expectations.”

Martyn & Helen

The photographs that Fiona captured of our wedding day were wonderful. She has a real skill for capturing the special moments of a wedding day. Fiona was also a wonderful addition to our wedding; from helping do up the (many) buttons on my wife’s wedding dress to providing advice about timings for the day, she went beyond the role of photographer. Fiona was able to get fantastically intimate photos without intruding on the day (for us or our guests). We would recommend her to anyone.

Jason & Amy

“Fiona was a forward-thinking, technologically advanced photographer. From the first meeting to the day itself, every interaction was a pleasure. She uses the best tech but it doesn’t not replace her skill as an Artist. She worked hard to execute our vision yet she was invisible on the day itself, seamlessly blending into the crowd and capturing the most beautiful and intimate moments with quiet dignity and extreme professionalism. She is a true artist.”

Sheila & Paul

“Fiona is extremely organized and the quality of the photos was fantastic. She was very professional and helped guide us through the photos for the day. Would highly recommend to others.”

Jac & Nick
“Well, where do I start? Our photographs are out of this world, you’ve captured every single aspect of our day perfectly and you’ve bought
the day back to life, in the most beautiful way.
There were so many wonderful moments, that you’ve caught on camera, a lot of love,  laughter and fun, some of which we would have missed if it wasn’t for you. I know that all of our guests will love them too! I can not wait to share them!
Thank you for all of your hard work, from our engagement shoot and the wedding day, we have the most stunning photographs, that we will truly treasure for the rest of our lives! And despite nick being the most camera-shy person, he loves every photo!! You are extremely talented but not only that you are a joy to work with you put us both at ease from the very first moment we met.
Thank you for being so wonderful. All of our love.”

Adam & Sarah

“Fiona’s empathetic, thorough but-never-fussy, & confidence-inspiring approach, quickly made her part of the fabric of our wedding. Fiona fashioned our loose, naive ideas into something cohesive & beautiful. Without ever really noticing the shoot in progress, the results are close, personal, & capture the feeling & flavour of the day. From top to tail the experience of working with Fiona was a pleasure, & the results are wonderful. These are the memories that will never fade, & we love them!”

Lydia & Tom

“We shortlisted our choice to Fiona and another photographer but ended up choosing Fiona because of her stunning portfolio and the feel of her photos. We didn’t see in her the trendy dramatic style of photography that prevails at the moment but instead a classic and timeless style which will last forever. We forgo a videographer because we were so sure that Fiona’s photos would prove to be the only mementoes we needed from our day and we haven’t regretted our choice for one second.”

Belinda & Peter

“We just wanted to thank you so so much for the amazing photos.  We are so pleased and happy with them. You did a fantastic job. We are so over the moon with them. THANK YOU!!! Love Belinda & Pete xx”

Lauren & Sam

“OMG!!!! I’m at work right now…so I haven’t had time to look at more than 10 photos but I AM COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY!!!!!!!!! Fiona, these photos are UNBELIEVABLE!!!! They have 100000% exceeded my expectations!! You are amazing!! I can’t wait  to sit down tonight and study each photo properly!!! You are the best!!”

Daphne & Dave

“We’re not flashy, exciting people. We’re quiet, geeky introverts. Photographing outgoing people must be easy, but harder when your couple is a bit shy behind the camera. Fiona is so relaxed that she made us feel like it was ok just to be us, from the first time we met and she did our engagement shoot, to the main event. She was a whisp on the day of – barely noticed her, yet the results show, she was everywhere and caught so many special, character-filled moments.”

Helen & Martyn

“What a fantastic photographer! So lovely and helpful with everything from beginning to end – even helping me button my dress! Photographs are absolutely beautiful – so natural and beautiful unseen moments captured”

Jen & Darren

“Thank you so much, Fiona! Wow, we are absolutely blown away. You really captured our day so beautifully. ”

 

Beau & Karen

“Fiona over-delivered in every aspect of our wedding, from communication, personability, professionalism, photos on the day and post-wedding service. We couldn’t have asked for more and ultimately we are very pleased with the photos.”

Malcolm & Cathy

“Fiona was extremely professional throughout, yet also very relaxed through all our discussions. She listened to what we wanted and made excellent suggestions for photo locations during our walk through both at the church and the reception. On the day she was never an intrusion and captured some great images of all of our guests from start to finish. Having a second photographer was a bonus as we had shots of both of us in the build-up to the ceremony, meaning nothing was missed.”

Sarah & Adam

“Fiona’s photos are just beautiful. She captures moments perfectly. She put my husband at ease as he was worried about ‘posing’ too much. She was brilliant in the lead up to the wedding, enthusiastic and approachable. On the day she was excellent, organised and careful to have the right balance of taking beautiful pictures and letting us enjoy our day. Our photos came through very quickly after the wedding too which was really great.”

Carl & Jack

“We just wanted to write and say a HUGE ‘thank you’ for all your time and effort on Saturday. You were so professional, but also warm and welcoming to all of our guests. You had that perfect balance of friendliness, but also patience (and firmness when required) to make sure you got the best shots for us. We couldn’t be happier with how the day went and you have played an important role in that – Carl didn’t even take a single picture (which is unusual) because we were both so confident that you were getting amazing pictures. Even when our pageboy had his little meltdowns, you went out of your way to prove that he was happy for at least parts of the day. My mum (and others) thought that you were so kind and friendly that she thought we’d known each other for years. But we already knew from the engagement shoot that you were the perfect person to shoot our special day and you went above and beyond our expectations. We cannot wait to see the results and cannot thank you enough!”

Thanks for taking the time to read through this post. Hopefully, it has given you a bit more of an idea of how I work and what you can expect from having me as your wedding photographer. Nothing beats feedback and words directly from the couples whose weddings I have photographed. I will be writing a post soon that shares more about how I work so keep an eye out for that.

If you are planning a wedding and think I would be a perfect fit for your wedding day get in touch and let me know all about your plans.

Have a lovely day
