Worth every penny for what you get. The shoot was two hours, they gave us a full set of edited images and a few prints for the grandparents. The price was reasonable compared with others I'd looked at and the photographer was very professional. Booking was simple and I'd come back for another session.
Read moreNeeded a shoot for my cousin's wedding so I messaged to ask about availability. Took almost four days to get a reply which was a pain given the date was close. Once it was booked it was fine but that first bit dragged.
Read moreThe range of print sizes and finishes was the thing I found most useful when we ordered. I had looked at a couple of other photographers who offered far fewer options. Pricing was on the steep side for what we received and it took a while for the prints to be dispatched after the session. Still, the quality is good and we're pleased with the family piece on the wall.
Read moreI would say the session was worth it and I'd happily book them again for the grandchildren. The gentleman who came out was courteous and didn't rush us, though the booking form asked for rather more details than I'd have liked. We waited a few days for the final gallery link but it arrived in good order and the pictures are lovely.
Booked the maternity session on the site and it was really easy to pick a date. The photographer was lovely and made me feel comfortable, which I was worried about. Only thing was the gallery link took a few days to come through, but the pics are gorgeous.
Got a quick mini session for my birthday. Booking was quick on the app and the photographer was chill. Pics were nice but took a bit longer to get back than I thought.
I booked a headshot sitting for my husband's retirement booklet and the photographer was very patient with him. The pictures came back within the week, and we were pleased with the lighting and how natural he looks. The only thing I'd mention is that the editing took a little longer than I expected, but the finished images were lovely and well worth waiting for.
The first thing I noticed was how calm the photographer was with our two boys during the family session. They gave us clear directions on where to stand and we got a good mix of posed and candid shots. The gallery link arrived a few days later and the edits were nice. Would book them again.
