Jodi Hanagan Photography

I stumbled across Jodi's photos on Instagram and absolutely loved the candid, relaxed and fun portrayal of the weddings she captures. By some stroke of luck she was free on our wedding day on 14th August 21, and after a lovely chat I knew that she was the photographer for us. We met beforehand at the venue and hit it off, and it was incredible to watch her in action finding beautiful niche photo spots in areas we would have otherwise walked past! Her enthusiasm and creativity is infectious.

It'd be hard to express enough just how great Jodi was on the actual wedding day, and she fit in with guests like an old friend. There was no task too small, she truly went above and beyond, helping to comb confetti out of my hair, safety pinning my dress, making sure I had enough to drink. She managed to do this all while socialising with everyone and taking incredible photos without making anyone feel awkward or posed. When we walked off for our group shots, she climbed up a very steep bank at the side of the road without a second thought, cut her ankles on thistles, and waded shoulders-deep into a corn field, all in the pursuit of ensuring she achieved the shots she wanted. The photos we received after are genuinely incredible and are everything that we wished for. It's hard to portray all of the love and fun of a wedding day, but they absolutely do. We have received so many complements on the photos, and just as many comments from guests since on how professional, relaxed, fun and lovely our photographer was.

If you are thinking of going for Jodi, do not hesitate, it will be a highlight of your wedding and you will not regret it. She's such a gem that frankly if she wasn't our photographer, we probably would invite her anyway.

We can’t recommend Jodi enough! Fantastic quality photos, professional and so lovely!

We loved that Jodi took the time to meet us at the venue for a consultation before the big day to talk through ideas and get to know us. Jodi completely understood our style and us as a couple which was captured so brilliantly in Jodi’s photos.

Many of our friends and family have also said how amazing Jodi’s photos are but how they felt she blended in with the day so much that they didn’t feel like they were having their photo taken, which resulted in beautiful natural shots that will be truly treasured.

From first engaging Jodi to the consultation, her research into the venue & surrounding areas for photos and her expertise on the day to work flexibly around the typical British wet weather, she was brilliant.

Not only are the photos of such a high quality but Jodi has got such a talent for capturing genuine moments that makes her photos so incredible!

Jodi came to photograph our 'micro wedding' in December and did an excellent Job. We have beautiful group shots and photos of my wife and I in some surrounding urban areas too.
Jodi is a good communicator which was important as we had so many changes due to lock down and restrictions constantly changing. She is very professional, punctual and kind and helped the whole day feel relaxed and fun. Jodi did her job without distracting anyone or disturbing the ceremony.

We got married 09.10.2021 and Jodi was amazing!

We had two brides, 11 bridesmaids, 4 flower girls, ushers, dads, mums, 140+ guests and to make it even harder for her two aisles which she had to try and capture both!
Jodi was amazing from the moment she arrived, organizing our bridal party, going between both of our rooms to capture all the bridesmaids and us. She helped us into our dresses when needed, repaired my bridal gown when I broke the zip and just went above and beyond all day. She had so much positive energy and was full of beans for the whole 10 hours she was with us all! All of our guests have commented on how brilliant she was.

She captured our day perfectly and made us feel so comfortable with the camera. She’s got such attention for detail which has resulted in the most amazing photos for us to remember our day. They’re a true reflection of our day - laughter, tears and lots of love and dancing!

We love love love our wedding photos and will be using Jodi again for any future events.

Jodi you made our wedding day perfect and we couldn’t have asked for any more from you. You’re amazing!

Lots of love the new Mrs & Mrs Fitzsimmons xx

Working with Jodi in the run up to and on the day of our wedding was such a breeze, she is so friendly, knowledgeable, passionate and professional. We knew as soon as we first spoke to Jodi before we booked her that she was going to make us feel comfortable on the day and that she understood our vision for the day. And she accomplished that and so much more, bringing such creativity and style, resulting in some truly epic photos.
We met with Jodi in person at the venue before the wedding to discuss ideas and get to know each other, which meant on the actual day we all felt familiar to each other and we could all relax. Lots of our family and guests also commented on how fab Jodi was - friendly, efficient and clear.
Jodi got our full gallery of final photos to us within 1 week which was super speedy and we even had some sneak peek photos on Instagram within 48 hours - it was so exciting seeing those initial few photos and realising how amazing all the photos were going to be. We would 100% recommend Jodi for your wedding photography!

We had the most amazing experience with Jodi as our wedding photographer and we cannot recommend her enough. She was attentive to everything we asked of her and we were thrilled to bits with the gorgeous photos we received. All the photos were edited and sent to us within a few days and we couldn’t believe how speedy and professional the process was. Everyone has commented on how beautiful the photos are and also on how lovely Jodi was. Her energy is infectious and she had a wonderfully chatty, warm and friendly way with the guests. She was a delight from start to finish and we will definitely be calling on her again to take some photos of our family when the newest member arrives later on this year.
Thank you Jodi for capturing the most magical moments of our special day and for giving us the best memories that will last a lifetime. We can’t thank you enough! ❤️

We cannot recommend Jodi enough, she was incredibly flexible and helpful during the planning of our very changeable lockdown wedding, which was so reassuring!

When researching photographers, and I came across her work I knew she had an expert creative eye, which was very important to us. Then when speaking on the phone, and meeting in person I knew she was friendly, warm and was really excited to be part of our wedding - I was delighted she was available!

On the day she helped us to get some lovely shots as a couple despite neither of us being particularly good in front of a camera - and capturing our family, she then spent the rest of her time working discreetly and very athletically by running all over the place to document the day - at times I thought there must be two of her!

Once the day was done I was amazed how quickly Jodi sent us our sneak peaks - and then the whole set of beautiful photos just a few days later. Anyone looking for a talented, friendly and insightful photographer would be so lucky to have Jodi, I'm thrilled she was there to be a part of our day, all of our guests loved her - and now having seen her work are even more impressed.

She is worth every penny!

5 stars! You must have jodi as your wedding photographer and if you have already booked her then you are in for one hell of a treat!

Jodi is professional, punctual and had our photos to us within a week! Lots of other wedding photographers fit the bill above but what they can't have is jodi's calm charismatic manner.

My husband and i hate having our photo taken but jodi made us feel so comfortable that we had such a laugh and absolutely loved the experience. She has so much vivacious energy that she puts into capturing your wedding day that each photo is so alive; we will reminisce about our wedding day for years to come and that is all down to jodi. A million thank yous aren't enough!

Jodi, you are one wonderfully talented human being! ❤

We were delighted with the photos and service that Jodi provides, she is a true professional and truly talented. More importantly, she is so lovely and genuinely enhanced our day. Everyone loved her and she managed to get really natural, happy shots which was exactly what we wanted.

Myself and my husband are a little camera shy but honestly felt so at ease with Jodi that we enjoyed that part of the day.

Her energy and eye for detail is amazing. I'd recommend Jodi 100% - we are so happy that we found her!

So happy to have had Jodi at our wedding in late October at Lympne Castle - she made everyone feel relaxed and captured moments that we will treasure forever. When we first saw Jodi's photography we knew she was the best for our wedding as she captures emotion so well (a gift for sure) - on top of this she is a lovely person and would totally recommend her.

Jodi is one of a kind. She covered our wedding in Mayfair in August 2016. The pictures are absolutely sublime. She has done a fantastic job. When deciding which pictures to take for our album, my husband and I were spoiled for choice: all the pictures were good!

It was exactly what we wanted and more. Jodi captured lots of amazing moments. All pictures were of very high quality. Tom, her assistant, was extremely good as well.

Even before the wedding day, when we met, Jodi took the initiative, without us asking, of visiting the reception venue and church, to ascertain the lights etc. She is full of energy and amazing.

And when we thought it couldn't be better, we received our lovely wedding box containing our USB key. Absolutely perfect, down to the finest details.

The albums are also of extremely good quality. Highly recommended.

Jodi is one of the nicest genuine person I have met. From the moment we spoke on the phone prior to my wedding till this very day. She went above and beyond on our wedding day and even checked out the high down gardens before the ceremony started to make sure she captured our day with the best back drop! Felt very at ease and comfortable and she made our photos look absolutely stunning! She even came prepared for our kids with drinks and sweets to keep them happy! I would definitely recommend Jodi to anyone and would definitely use her again! Very professional and enthusiastic and could tell that she absolutely loves her job. Xx

My father met Jodi at a sporting event and was impressed with her work and friendliness. After speaking to Jodi on a few occasions and seeing some of her work we knew she would be the perfect photographer for our wedding and we weren't wrong. Jodi provided us with some absolutely stunning photos of our magical day and made us feel completely at ease throughout the day while following our requests. We very much enjoyed her presence there with her positive, upbeat and relaxed personality. If you're looking for someone to capture your dreams she's the lady! You'll not be disappointed with her service. The complete package came with a personalised USB stick of images and arrived in half the time we had expected. A truley unique service that we would use again in a heartbeat.

What can we say about Jodi other than, she was absolutely amazing!
We found Jodi via Hitched and after viewing her work and meeting her, we knew immediately that she was the only person we wanted to capture our special day.
Jodi had so many fantastic ideas and was filled with an abundance of energy, creativity, flexibility and enthusiasm. Communication with Jodi was excellent and she managed to capture our wedding exactly how we imagined it. All of our guests commented on how friendly and professional Jodi was.
We were so impressed with the speed at which we received our beautifully packaged personalised USB.
Without a shadow of doubt we would highly recommend Jodi.

We can't thank Jodi enough for giving us the best lasting memories of our special day!

Thanks so much
