Amazing photographer

Helen was Amazing at every stage of our wedding. She gave advice ahead of the day and met with us to make sure she had a list of pictures I didn’t want to miss. On the day she was super and caught so many wonderful moments. Helen’s second shooter Vanessa was also amazing. Both were really friendly but knew how to get the shots.

Excellent, professional, friendly, easy to get along with

Helen Chapman photography a must to capture the moments and memories of your big day. You will get a personal, professional and friendly service from Helen. Our guests commented on how professional the photographers were and that they did not get in the way. As I am sure we have all experienced that photographer who stands in front of you and spoils the view. Well with Helen Chapman Photography you will not get this. They are discreet and capture those moments that matter. Helen has captured our precious moments from the big day and now we have memories that will last forever. We can not thank her enough. Mark and Jade the new Mr and Mrs Ellis.

April wedding

We first spoke with Helen during lockdown, she was absolutely fantastic! Our youngest (8yrs old at the time wanted to be involved with the planning and Helen was so good with her, (and us!).
We had an engagement shoot as part of our package, Helen met us on the Moors and took some incredible shots of us, she gets in all sorts of funny positions to get the perfect shot!
On the wedding day she came to my house so I could have ‘getting ready’ shots and the second shooter went to the venue and met with my (now) husband and the best man.
Helen listened to the sort of shots I wanted and delivered more than I could have imagined! She was again in all sorts of weird and wonderful positions including lying on the floor beside a tractor tyre!! She also bought lighting with her for the evening shots.
She is force of nature! She was very organised and with the help of my bridesmaids got everyone where they needed to be at the correct time. Helen worked amazingly well with our DJ as well, to create a dancing on the clouds shot, which was fantastic!!

Fantastic Wedding Photographer

Helen was brilliant from beginning to end. She came over and discussed our vision for our wedding day whilst offering her advice and guidance from her years of experience. She made us feel super comfortable on our initial Engagement shoot offering us just the right amount of direction meaning our photos looked natural and gorgeous. On the wedding day itself, Helen went above and beyond to make our dreams come true, stayed longer than required, ensured we got all the photos we had discussed and made all guests feel comfortable. Thank you Helen!

Wonderful photos.

My sons wedding will be remembered through the lovely photos Helen took. She was very professional and organised to ensure everyone was in place for the group shots but also took more candid shots that showed the joy of the day. She captured the atmosphere of the wedding perfectly.

Fabulous friendly photographer

Helen captured our wedding day perfectly. She was quick to get all the right angles, and the photos have turned out just as well as we hoped they would. She was also careful not to take up too much of our time, leaving us to make the most of the precious moments with family and friends. A very quick turnaround on the photos too - thank you for everything Helen!

Excellent wedding photographer

Having Helen as our wedding photographer was great - she was very communicative in the run-up to the day, taking the time to call us and get to know a bit about us. On the day she was very organised which was helpful as we didn't have to worry so much about organising big group photos, and she was also not so intrusive as to take up loads of our day with staged photo shoots - rather only a couple when the light was good. She sent us our photos in good time after the wedding and has been very helpful with queries that we have had about buying photos and postage and packing issues with the website.

Beyond our wildest dreams.

Well. What can I say? Helen 100% understood the assignment!! She captured the atmosphere of our wedding perfectly and we are so unbelievably happy that we get to remember through some absolutely stunning photos!! Helen knew exactly what she wanted to get out of the photos and with that, and her creativity, she was able to create photos way beyond our expectations! Could not be happier with our photos and everything about Helen!!

Absolutely wonderful

Helen is such a lovely lady and takes great pride in her work. Helen took time to understand our requirements and was able to accommodate our non-traditional wedding requirements. Helen made all our guests feel at ease and there was so much joy and laughter during our photo sessions.
