The Perfect Photographer for Our Wedding Day

We’re a little late sharing our review, as our wedding was on 19th October 2024, but we couldn’t go without saying how amazing Julia (& Michelle) were. We were drawn to the classy, timeless look of Julia’s work, and from our very first consultation she immediately put us at ease. Julia reassured us throughout and gave us complete confidence that our photos would be beautiful – and they absolutely are. On the day, Julia and Michelle were simply fantastic. Not only are they both such lovely ladies, but the ultimate professionals too. Having two photographers meant that no moment was missed – every angle was covered, and we now have the most incredible variety of photos from our day. During the ceremony and group shots, Julia and Michelle organised everyone so seamlessly – quick, efficient, and all while keeping things relaxed and fun. They even made the most of the sunshine when it came out at just the right time, capturing some of our favourite photos. We were also so impressed with how quickly Julia edited and delivered our full album – and we received every single photo in both colour and black and white, which was such a special touch. We would wholeheartedly recommend Julia to anyone looking for a talented photographer to capture their day perfectly, with photos that will last a lifetime. A big thank you to Julia for filling us with confidence and giving us the most stunning memories of our wedding day. Lots of love, Hannah & Matt xx

5* doesn’t come close

5* does not feel like enough for Julia! We had an absolutely flawless experience with her as our wedding photographer from the first contact to the day itself. She created the most amazing photographs and incredible memories that we will always treasure. Her eye and attention to detail is amazing. She also sent us some highlights really quickly which made the days after the wedding even more special. Julia herself made our wedding day so special, she went above and beyond to help and make things run smoothly, is a lovely person and great fun to be around. We cannot recommend Julia enough!

Blown away

Words cannot describe how talented Julia and Michelle are. I’ve only had my preview shots back and I’m blown away (as is anyone who has seen them) I am so excited to see the rest. Not only does Julia shoot the most incredible pictures, she is lovely to be around and makes you feel so at ease. She also was so handy to have around on the morning and made the whole thing a breeze, during the drinks reception she had the list of photos we wanted and worked through them as quickly as possible so we could join our guests which was important to us. I really cannot recommend her enough.

Brilliant photographer!! Highly recommend!

Julia and the team were immense from start to finish! They were professional and enabled the day to flow as smooth as possible without us even knowing they were there. One of the best parts upon reflection was how diligent Julia and the team were with getting the 'required' photos done, by keeping those who were going to be in the next shot close by. We've now received our photos, there are so many to look through, but we're so so happy with the ones we've seen to date. I'd highly recommend Julia & You - if I could give 10 stars I would!

Amazing wedding photography

Julia, I want to thank both you and Michelle for our absolutely amazing wedding album. We are absolutely delighted with how the photos have turned out and how you have captured all the moments and details from our special day. From start to finish, you and Michelle were amazing to work with. You gave us really helpful guidance and advice before the big day, helped us to feel really calm and comfortable and captured everything and more throughout the day. Both myself, George and all our family and friends loved working with you both! Thank you so much again for our memories that will last a lifetime! Elly & George xxx

Marquee wedding

Julia was truly the most perfect wedding photographer we could have asked for. From our very first meeting, we knew immediately she would be perfect for our day. She makes you feel so relaxed and yourself, nothing is too much and she is on hand all day long without being intrusive. Julia was so organised, and also really helped the day run smoothly. Now... onto the images! We were totally and utterly blown away by how she had captured the day. Our wedding photo's are so perfect, and capture...

Surrey wedding

We were absolutely blown away by Julia and the photos from our wedding - they are absolutely stunning. Right from the get go, we felt in very safe hands. In the lead up to the wedding we had a few meetings with her on zoom to discuss what we wanted, logistics, family shots etc. On the day, Julia was brilliant, and so calming and helpful - such as suggesting we cut the cake a bit early to avoid it melting in the hot weather! See rest on google...

Quendon Hall - Parklands

We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer for our wedding day. Julia was super helpful on the lead up to the day, keeping in regular contact and guiding us through the process, and was just wonderful on the day itself. We received our pictures back so quickly and we were absolutely over the moon with them - they were perfect and we genuinely loved every single one. Julia captured everything in the most beautiful way and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

Gaynes Park wedding

Julia and her team were such a delight to work with. As soon as we had our first consultation with her we knew she would be the perfect fit for our day as not only did we love her style of photography, she was also really friendly and we instantly warmed to her. It was important that whoever we chose to be our photographer would be able to seamlessly fit into our day as you do spend so much time together. Julia was great in the lead up to the wedding by helping us visualise the types of shots w

Gaynes Park wedding

I found Julia on Instagram to have photography at our wedding and from the moment I got in touch, she was friendly and professional. Nothing was a problem and she really helped us understand how the day would go and what to expect. I was really nervous on the day of my wedding but Julia really put me to ease and had such a team spirit approach that I felt relaxed. You can tell she loves what she does and really does capture all of the moments you are looking for. We were sad when she left the da

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrellas and a smile, dont worry about it - some of my favourite weddings have had a bit of rain, this summer on a particularly wet wedding the bride and groom literally laughed their way through the vows as they could see the rain coming down. It wasnt what they had planned - but by having good humour it didn't spoil a thing and then in the evening the rain cleared the clouds as we got the most amazing sunset. And you know what you can hardly tell from the photographs

Describe how you got into photography.
