Kari Bellamy Photography

If you're looking for a kind, professional, talented and organised photographer, Kari is the photographer for you! Kari did our engagement photos last September, and to this day, I am so happy we found her! My fiance and I are very camera shy, but Kari made the experience not only relaxing, but also so much fun. I absolutely LOVE our engagement photos and would recommend Kari to anyone in a heartbeat!

I bought cute thank you notes to send to all our suppliers but I’m afraid we couldn't fit everything we wanted to say to you on one card! It’s hard to know where to start when saying thank you to you because not only did you capture our wedding in the most spectacular way, but you leant a hand with button holes, getting people organised, running back and forth and just generally providing an amazing presence. On the day- As soon as you arrived you whizzed into action, finding unique places to photograph wedding accessories, capturing us getting ready and helping out with button holes. You are a complete professional and so good at what you do, but you became like another good friend rather than just being there to take our photo. You added to our experience and became a huge part of our day with your personality and sense of humour. The photos- Well what can we say? They are so beautiful and exactly what we wanted when we set out to find a photographer. I literally look at them every day, spending ages scanning through them all, reliving the day all over again. We have had so many comments on them, everyone complimenting them and saying good you are. We particularly love the ones of us outside and the ones of Emmie who stole the show and you have just captured her personality in every shot. To say you were our best wedding purchase doesn’t do you justice, because you didn’t just provide us with fantastic memories of our wedding, but helped make it so special by being who you are. We are so grateful to have these special photos of our wedding day and can’t thank you enough for everything.

Thank you so, so much for the beautiful photographs. They are quite literally everything I dreamed of and more… I wanted “big” (read: iconic) photos but a small ceremony… Your gallery immediately stood out to me. I loved all of the colour, the artistry, and the occasional goofy pictures thrown in. When I emailed you to communicate my interest and told you that I wanted pictures in front of all of the landmarks that scream London (did I mention I have an obsession with London? haha), you replied with a similarly themed shoot you had done. And that sealed the decision for me! Your photo galleries have the perfect mix of serious, playful, artistic, and elegance. I knew going into our photoshoot that we would have great pictures based on your previous work, but what I did not know or fully appreciate was the work and dedication you put into getting the photos! Sometimes the more interesting photograph is what’s happening on the other side of the people or scene being captured, and a perfect example of that is my mental image of you laying stomach down in a mix of rain, dirt, and likely other worse things, to get the perfect shot of us in front of Big Ben. So, thank you, too, for your commitment to getting the best angle! Lastly, I have to thank you for your personality! You are so calm, organised, entertaining, fearless (running into traffic for another one of my favourite photos you took!), and accommodating…The pictures are phenomenal and surpassed all of my expectations. My obsession with your city has grown and I will always treasure your perfect capturing of our memories from that day. Thank you so very much, Kari. With much admiration and gratitude, Catherine and Michael

I am going to keep this short and sweet as there are no words that can really do Kari justice... Kari is truly amazing and unbelievably talented! In addition to her talent and ability, She is amazing to be around in person, and puts you at ease instantly ! Kari is also super organised which allows for a seamless day! I can’t speak highly enough of Kari, who captured our wedding day so perfectly.

Kari is such a gifted photographer, she really has a fantastic eye for those natural moments. Her style is so artistic, offering plenty of versatility. My husband and I were both thrilled with our wedding photos, Kari really did capture the essence of the day. Both Professional and highly organised, we couldn’t have asked for more. -Chris and Claire

Kari is an absolutely brilliant photographer. My husband and I worked with her on our wedding photo shoot in London and she completely impressed us with her vivacious and spunky nature and enthusiasm for her work .
We were even more blown away by the amazing quality of the photos when we received them. She was a delight to work with and we would wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone else! -V

Words cannot express how happy we are with our photos. Kari is for sure the best investment we made!

From the start Kari was so communicative. We felt so informed and organised all the way through, the sneak peeks were so appreciated and we always knew where we were in our timeline. We had so much fun doing the engagement shoot, and getting to know Kari before the big day was great.

Kari is so good at putting you at ease while directing calmly and confidently; she expertly melded into the background on the day but knew exactly what photos to get. The results are photos and moments we will treasure forever.

We've had such fun looking through, laughing out loud at a lot of them. She captured some truly wonderful moments, and we all have different favourites!-

Kari absolutely blew past my expectations, the pictures she took of me and my wife are true treasures that we will be looking at for a lifetime. She was incredibly professional, efficient and great at keeping our spirits up for 4 straight hours! When I say that these are the best pictures of me and my wife I have ever seen, I truly mean it! Would recommend Kari in a heart beat, so very thankful we found her.

We just wanted to say a quick thank you for capturing every moment and every emotion so beautifully on our wedding day. We absolutely adore all the pictures and are so lucky to have found you! You made everything from the pre-wedding info, to the engagement shoot, to the day, so easy and so much fun. We feel so privileged to have such gorgeous images of our most favourite day ever!! Thank you, thank you and thank you again…. Much love and the very best wishes- The Hofferers xxx

“Kari you are just simply amazing!!!… We couldn’t of asked for a more perfect photographer. Thank you so much x ” -Lauren and Steve

These photos are incredible, you have managed to capture some really intimate moments and so much joy. It is so lovely to go through these photos and see how much everyone was enjoying themselves. We loved having you guys there on the day, lots of our friends have commented on how fun and professional you were. We couldn’t recommend you more highly and will continue to do so! You really are amazing at what you do so once again THANK YOU -Katie and James

Thank you so much for our amazing wedding photos! Myself and Nick have just spent the evening looking at them all and it’s felt like we have relived our wedding day all over again. We really love them! You really integrated yourself into the wedding and captured every moment. The ones of me and Nick alone later in the evening… I love! They are so romantic, we will treasure those forever.

Gushing now over, but thank you again to you and your assistant for all your hard work at capturing those moments… Kristi and Nick

On a miserable Wednesday in March, I can spend 4 minutes watching the montage of our wedding photos you put together – and immediately, everything is better, and I’m taken right back to that perfect day. Thank you so much for capturing it so well. What you’ve given us is genuinely priceless. :) -Dimuthu and Emma

Thank you so much for our wonderful wedding photos! We have so much to thank you for, where to start… Thank you being such a happy, bubbly and caring person, right from the first time we met you. You have such a good personality for helping nervous newlyweds through the event! … Professionally you have done a superb job and your skills with a camera shine through your work!… Much Love, Marcus & Isla

THANK YOU for everything last Saturday. The first batch of pictures that you sent through are beautiful and I can’t wait to see the rest. My sister said unprompted that you are the best wedding photographer she’s ever seen. But beyond your beautiful work, thank you for your calm and professionalism. As a bit of a control freak, I was constantly looking around to see what should be photographed. You were always five steps ahead of me and every time I looked around it was like there were ten of you! You never missed a moment, and used every second efficiently. You’re also a true joy to be around. I don’t think my getting ready session would have been nearly as fun without you. And when I started to get a bit flustered about how to navigate seeing every single one of my guests, you calmed me down in minutes and got me in the right mood to enjoy my day… -Amy & Oliver
