We are so happy with the photographs -they are truly amazing! Not quite sure how you did such a good job in such bad conditions! Thank you for being such helpful chaperones on the day, and for rescuing us when our windscreen wipers became entangled in ribbon and broke. It would have been a long walk!
You truly are magicians and we thank you so much.
I think by now, knowing you guys, we knew the photographs would be great – but we are just blown away by them. I’m not sure if it’s the incredible quality (it feels like you could step into each image) or you and V’s skill for capturing the most special moments – but seeing them is like being transported back to the gardens and marquee all over again. The church…Pimm’s in the sunshine…crying with laugher at the speeches…the crazy dancing…everything! What I’m really trying to say is – thank you. As soon as we saw your photographs, we knew your style was perfect for us. But I never could’ve guessed you’d be such lovely people too. I think it was during the engagement shoot, when you and V embraced the hill walking and the cave and the ominous clouds – it was like yes, these are definitely the ones for us!. From start to finish, it’s been so much fun!
Just wow!!! Where to begin? What really struck us is how amazingly you have captured the warmth and personality of the day. It’s like being transported back there. You have managed to photograph our guests in such a natural, non-posed light (as well as us – for most of the photos I didn’t even notice you were taking them!), you’ve captured all of the little details to remind us of all the finishing touches, and I haven’t even mentioned the jaw-dropping “wow” shots.
You’ve also provided us with some of the best photos we’ve ever seen of our families. Just as an example, my mum can be quite difficult to photograph, but you have caught her unawares and captured her beautifully. I think it definitely helped us having got to know you both so well in the run up to the wedding – we felt so relaxed in your company. It felt like you were more like guests than anything else. But leaving all that to one side for a minute, at the end of the day you are both just truly amazing photographers – born to do what you do. We are so, so glad that we picked you guys to photograph the most important day of our lives. The whole experience has been an absolute pleasure – the engagement shoot, Skype calls, all the lovely personalised treats that you’ve sent through the post, and obviously the day itself – all of these things have played their own part in the whole process. You are clearly so highly regarded in your field, and it’s so nice to see because you’re such lovely people and it’s SO well deserved!
