Emma & Ross were absolutely fantastic!

Thank you both so much for everything from the enquiry, pre-wedding shoot to our wedding day! Despite the challenging weather you helped make the day feel so relaxed and enjoyable and everything came together perfectly when it mattered most. We almost forgot you were even there which allowed for the best photos! We absolutely love all of our photos and the turn around on getting them back to us was incredible! Thank you for capturing our day so beautifully 💚

Thank you Emma!

First of all, Alex and I would like to say a huge thank you to Emma for being our photographer, we are so glad we chose you as the photos are just stunning. It’s a running joke (kind of hoping it will come true) that you’ll now have to be the Farr family photographer after doing our wedding and Cat & Dom’s a couple of years ago!!

Emma was so great from the very start and made everything so at ease, even when I had a bit of an overwhelming moment when leaving the house to head to the church, Emma was cool, calm and collected and just managed everything so well.

During the church ceremony, Emma got so many beautiful photos of us and when we have looked back we have both said we didn’t even realise Emma is there, which goes to show how professional and stealthy she truly is!!

We were met with plenty of rain and hail at one point on the day but that didn’t phase Emma one bit and she was more than happy go with the flow and have some of the photos done inside whilst we waited for the weather to sort itself out.

Emma was professional, funny, caring towards everyone and we cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Emma for capturing our day so beautifully, you will always have a huge place in our hearts and will always be remembered as playing such a key role for our day. We couldn’t have done it without you

Outstanding

Well, where do we start, right from the initial enquiries at a wedding fair to the very last minute of our wedding we felt like this was so right. Emma on the day was sensational, the pre shoot we had was fun and made us feel comfortable and the wedding day couldn't have gone any better. Smooth, organised and natural, nothing felt forced or like we were being hearded from one place to another, the shoot just felt organic and perfect. The attention to detail in ensuring the shots were perfect was second to none, Emma didn't feel like to us a photographer there to do a job, she felt like a guest of ours and we thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The quality of the photos to which there were hundreds of amazing pics were outstanding. Honestly please don't hesitate to book with Bloomwood, you won't regret it. The best experience we could have ever asked for. Thankyou

The absolute best!

Emma was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. She was so much fun to be around — we genuinely didn’t stop laughing — and she became such a big part of our wedding day.

From our first conversation, our personalities clicked so well, which made everything feel relaxed, easy, and completely natural. When things weren’t quite going to plan with our venue (before and on the day!), Emma was also an unexpected emotional support. She was calm, reassuring, and so kind in stressful moments, which honestly meant more to us than she probably realises.

The photos she captured are beyond beautiful. They make me cry every single time I look at them because she didn’t just capture how the day looked — she captured how it felt. I love them dearly and will treasure them forever.

We are so incredibly grateful to Emma for capturing these memories for us and for being such a wonderful presence on our wedding day. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone.

The best choice for our day

Best decision booking Emma as our wedding photographer. She was amazing from start to finish. She was so professional and friendly, she got everyone where they needed to be and was really good with the children. She fitted in perfectly with our wedding and felt more like a guest than a photographer, she got to know everyone and made everyone feel at ease.
I’m not always fond of photos of myself, but I am in love with all the photos she took and can’t wait to put them on the wall. If you’re getting married I highly recommend her to photo your big day you won’t regret it, she was amazing.

Best Photographer you could ask for!

We first met Emma at an open day event at our wedding venue, Little Channels, and knew instantly she was the perfect photographer for us!
She took everything we discussed in our meeting and made it all come to life, even managing to round up a tipsy bride to make sure I got the dancing pictures with my girls!
Emma played the part of not only photographer, but also helped with getting me ready for my first look with my bridal party! Every picture we received is a one of a kind and tells an amazing story of our day.

You only get one wedding photographer, choose Emma you won’t regret it!


Thankyou Emma, Mr and Mrs Gray xx

The best wedding photographer 🤍

I can't thank Emma enough for capturing our wedding day 🩵
You were honestly amazing. You kept us both calm and even all our guests were saying about how lovely you were. We can't wait to see all the pictures, but if they're anything like the previews you've given us then I know we'll love them. You made 2 people that hate having their picture taken actually keep asking for more. Thank you so so much
Love Mr & Mrs Nuttall 🤍

Our wedding day at little channels

We booked Bloomwood for our wedding at the start of September and we are so glad we did! Me and my husband aren't the best in front of a camera but Emma and Ross made us feel so comfortable, we are over the moon with our photos.

Bloomwood Photography Review

From start to finish, Bloomwood Photographers (Emma & Ross) were absolutely incredible at our wedding at Apton Hall. They instantly put us at ease, blended in seamlessly with our guests, and captured the day with such creativity and care. Nothing ever felt staged or rushed – just natural, beautiful moments we’ll cherish forever.
We had initially only booked Emma for the day but Ross also turned up and was totally free of charge as they’re only based down the road from the venue. This meant every angle and every little detail of our day was captured perfectly, and it’s something we’re so grateful for.
The photos are incredible – natural, vibrant, and full of emotion. They managed to capture every special moment, from the little details to the big celebrations, and looking back through the photos truly takes us straight back to the day. Our family and friends have all commented on how amazing the shots are and how friendly they were.
Thank you so much for giving us memories we will treasure forever. We can’t recommend Bloomwood Photographers highly enough!

Picture Perfect ❤️

Emma was the perfect addition to our day and captured all the special moments beautifully. We absolutely love our photos and she made us, and our guests, feel relaxed and at ease in front of the camera. Many of our guests commented on how brilliant she was throughout the day. As well as posed photos, she took candid shots and photos of the smaller details that may have otherwise been overlooked on such a busy day.

From our pre-wedding meeting to designing our wedding album she has been friendly, supportive and professional.

Having Emma as part of our day was more than just photos, it was like having another guest that fit in seamlessly and made the day run smoothly. She has created memories that will last a lifetime.

We would recommend her to anyone in need of a wedding photographer!

Best day of our lives

Emma was absolutely amazing. We can’t wait to use you again when our little one is born.

We wanted to express our deepest gratitude for your incredible work on our wedding day. Your professionalism and calm demeanor were truly invaluable. You made us and our guests feel so comfortable and relaxed, allowing everyone to be their authentic selves. We loved how seamlessly you worked with our other vendors, ensuring everything flowed perfectly and that all our special moments were documented without any intrusion. 

The way you captured the emotion of the day was breathtaking. The photos perfectly reflect the love, laughter, and fun we experienced.These are memories we will cherish forever. 

Thank you for being more than just a photographer; you felt like a friend who truly understood our vision. We couldn't have asked for a better person to document our wedding day. We will always be grateful for the beautiful way you've preserved the story of our special day, and we know we'll be reliving these moments through your photos for years to come. 

Thank you
Mr and Mrs Newman Clark

The best photographer around!

I can not recommend Emma enough! From the first email sent to the pre wedding shoot and the wedding day itself she was the ultimate professional and made the process not only simple but a lot of fun for us as a couple and for my two children. My eldest daughter has additional needs and Emma made her feel so comfortable that she was excited to have her photo taken for the first time in a long time. Emma blended into the background it seemed on our wedding day and managed to capture photos from all angles, all by herself. There are so many pictures that are of precious reactions and moments that we didnt realise she had captured. She really is incredible and brought such a calming and fun presence to our day. Our wedding day photos are beautiful and you get every single picture she takes in a gallery and on a memory stick.
Thank you so much Emma for everything you did for us on our special day. To making sure I was okay when I was overwhelmed, to bringing kindness and fun so that all the children (and adults) felt comfortable and happy, and for all of your beautiful work.

Jade & Tom

We had Emma do our wedding photography and from the moment we meet her we just felt so comfortable and as if we had known her for ages. So on our actual wedding day it was so relaxed she just told us where to go what to do and we didnt have to think about anything she did it all for us. And the pictures are amazing.
Thank you Emma for making our day one to remember.

Fabulous fantastic and fun photographers

Emma and Ross helped make our day the dream today. Their professionalism, their creativity and their encouragement helped ensure our day was captured beautifully. From every angle.
They seemed more like family themselves than our photographers as they worked tirelessly and seamlessly throughout the day to ensure everyone moment was captured.
Words can not express our gratitude for this fabulous team. Hire them!!!

Perfect experience with Bloomwood Photography!

We had the best experience with Emma. Bloomwood Photography were recommended by our wedding venue, and from the first meeting, we knew we were going to get on. We had a video call with Emma, and she was friendly, caring, knowledgeable, asked great questions and answered all the questions we had. She even talked to our son who was lurking in the background! Her prices were very reasonable too.

Once we decided on Emma (it was a quick decision!), she was professional and outlined what the timeline would be up to the wedding. She was responsive with questions we had and replied promptly to emails. She gave advice when asked, which was invaluable. Our pre-wedding shoot helped to put my (now) husband at ease as he was very nervous and doesn't like having his photo taken. At that meeting we all got on so well and we instantly warmed to Emma.

On the wedding day, Emma fitted into the wedding party like an old friend. She was there but in the background, snapping away, getting some brilliant candid shots, but also the posed ones we asked for. Our guests commented on how friendly she was, and how she put everyone at ease. Our wedding photos are out of this world and I can't thank Emma enough for everything she did for us on the day, and leading up to it. I would recommend Emma to anyone looking for a professional, caring, friendly and trustworthy photographer to capture their special day. Thank you so much Emma! Sharon and Neil x
