What more could you ask?

We are so glad we used Graham and Cim for your wedding. They are so friendly, there was no pressure on us or our guests, which means we had beautiful natural pictures of genuine smiley faces. They don't overdo it and you still get time to make the most of your wedding day whilst knowing that you will have the loveliest pictures to look forward to. In fact, whilst we were having our wedding meal, they even took the time to send us a couple of the pictures they edited there and then, it was a lovely surprise. They helped with poses but nothing exaggerated and very "us". When they weren't giving me advice on how to cut the cake, they were busy taking pictures of all the important moments of the day but never intruded and most of the time we forgot they were even there. We couldn't recommend their talent more, they do this out of passion and it is obvious they love it and love people contact, what more is there to ask...

Couldn't recommend enough!

These guys literally made our wedding day and went above and beyond for us with our photos. I honestly couldn’t recommend these guys enough. They were always easy to contact with any issues and just made me and my husband feel so relaxed and comfortable on our engagement shoot and on our wedding day.

Captured so many amazing shots...

Graham & Cim were brilliant on our wedding day. They came to visit the venue before the big day to get an idea of what we would and wouldn’t like, and cake up with other photo opportunities we hadn’t even thought of. They were great fun on the day and captured so many amazing shots that we will treasure forever. Thanks guys you were amazing!

I cannot put into words how wonderful...

I cannot put into words how wonderful both Graham and Cim were throughout the entirety of my daughters wedding day! They were so professional but so warm and reassuring. At times they went above and beyond their call of duty and were on hand to help with the odd ‘glass of water please’ or door answering service as we were all getting ready! By the end of the day we really felt that they were an integral part and were simply new friends who we would have wanted at such a special occasion. Thank you both for your patience, your kindness and your support as well as your exceptional talents - your service is second to none and I hope we have call to use it again in the future. Yours gratefully, A very elated and appreciative Mother of the Bride!

I cannot speak more highly of Graham and Cim

I honestly cannot speak more highly of Graham and Cim. I took a recommendation to use them from a family friend, and I was not disappointed. From the initial meeting, to the engagement shoot, to the day of the wedding both made us feel at ease. They remained supportive throughout the process and spent the entire wedding day going above and beyond to ensure the day moved smoothly and they got all the shots they could. Their humour and personality endeared our guests and they truly felt less like photographers and more like guests who just happened to be taking pictures. Throughout the day, both Graham and Cim's eye for photography and creativity shone through. The gents are excellent quality and, as mentioned, I cannot recommend more highly.

Wedding Adventure!

From the start of booking our wedding adventure to the actual day they were so understanding of our needs and the whole day ran so smoothly. We hardly notice that we were being recorded as they blended into the guests. When we received our link to our day it was so exciting to see and see bits of our day that we missed!
