Karen thankyou SO MUCH for capturing our day exactly as we experienced it. Most of the time I didn't even notice you taking photos, you didn't stop our day to recapture a moment, you captured them as they happened and that is such an important quality in a photographer, brilliant!! It was lovely meeting you and having you there on our special day. I absolutely LOVE these photos and can't wait to see the rest of them. Belinda (and Matt) xxx

VANESSA+PAUL
Thank you so much Karen for the wonderful photos of our wedding day.We are so lucky to have found your website - and for you to have been able to fit us in at such short notice. All of our dealings prior to the day were so smooth, and on the day you made us so comfortable with your laid back but professional manner. You somehow made having our photos taken (usually an awkward moment for us) a really easy, relaxed experience. You really brought out the best smiles in us – all of the photos turned out more beautiful than we could ever have imagined!! You have really captured the happiness of the day in every photo.
With very minimal input from us you have managed to work out exactly what we wanted in the way of shots – your suggestions and guidance with different angles, positions, scenes, etc, have given a really exciting feel to the album. The lighting in the photos is just stunning – it really captures our special day so wonderfully.
We really appreciate everything you’ve done for us to make our memories of our wedding day so beautiful and so clear. We will certainly be
LIZ+JUSTIN
We received the photo's shortly after we got back and I have loaded them all onto the computer. All the disks work fine and the pictures are unbelievable!! We are very happy with everything and everyone has commented on your photography and the great shots you we able to get. I don't know if you have a hit counter on your website but you would have seen it go up pretty quickly after we told everybody how to view them.
KRISTINA+TYM
We love your photos! They are so great and you've really captured us and our guests so candidly! We love it! We've shown a few people and most say that they didn't even know how the shot was taken as no one saw you hovering around! You were like a little spy!
Thanks again so much - they are all so lovely!
RACH+ROD
We would like to sincerely thank you for creating a lifetime of magical memories for us to look back on with love, laughter, pure delight and absolute amazement. We cannot thank you enough for capturing each and every defining moment of our wedding day. You are a true magician with a camera, and obviously were destined to be on this path. It is so refreshing to have photos that reflect our own tastes, personalities and chraracter, versus the ‘normal” wedding photos that one sees time and time again. Not only that you were unassuming and unobtrusive the whole day, something we wouldn’t have even imagined to be a possibility in a photographer!! We are truly eternally grateful.
