    Completely amazing.

    Helen you was nothing short of amazing. I started to feel very stressed just before you came, when I saw you as you know I cried. I cried because I knew everything was going to be okay. That’s the thing you are not just an amazing photographer you are a friend. Throughout our build up to the wedding you sent us tips and tricks, countdowns, you helped us find mother of the bride shops, answered any question that was never remotely to do with photography. You go above and beyond for your clients. On the day, I knew whatever was going to go wrong you was going to try and fix it. My whole media team made my day so special to see how you all cared so much for me and genuinely loved seeing mark and I so happy. I know these people are not people you usually work with but the way you all got on and worked well together like you knew each other speaks volumes about how much of a likeable personality you have. I can not thank you enough for everything. We had a great laugh together which made photos a lot more fun, you captured everything I wanted and more. The photos are amazing, I never had any doubt that they wouldn’t be. You are an amazing photographer and an even more amazing person. I will never have enough words to thank you as much as you deserve.

    The Only Wedding Photographer You Should Book

    I am lucky to be in the wedding industry myself as a celebrant, so come across photographers often, and all of them are always lovely. I first met Helen at a wedding fair, long before I’d even met my now husband, and was taken by her approachable, friendly manner, and over the course of the day discussed styles and weddings, and was extremely impressed by her knowledge, her professional approach to her business, and the many beautiful romantic pictures she had taken over the years.
    Our paths crossed multiple times in those years that followed, I saw numerous weddings she had shot on social media and had the opportunity to work with her a few times, which was always a pleasure. She also has a lovely reputation with other suppliers, vendors and venues in and around Herts.
    So forward to my own engagement, there was never any doubt who I was going to book, although I don’t think I ever told her this, but when we did get engaged, we quickly reached out to Helen to make sure she would be available.
    It’s quite strange being the bride when you have been the celebrant, and what I quickly learnt was I’m far more laid back (and unorganised) when it comes to my own wedding. Helen kept our timeline on track with meetings, timelines and day planning, but matching my laid-back attitudes. She was in regular contact, but in a friendly way, face to face meetings were at home or somewhere relaxed over a coffee.
    When the big day arrived, she arrived on time, armed with a bottle of fizz, with a smile and her calm, cheerful, bubbly self. I can’t say I’m a natural at having my photo taken, but she had a lovely way about her, and within a few moments of set up, she drifted around the room, hardly knowing she was there at moments. In others, I spotted her in various poses of her own as she tried to get the very best shot which did make me smile.
    She chatted easily with other members of the family and other suppliers who all thought she was lovely. When it came to my turn to pose, it was fun, creative and full of moments of laughter. Most important for me, not excessive. She captured the most beautiful images first, maybe second shot. Which is exactly what I wanted (and needed for my neurodivergent brain)
    And the rest of the day continued in much this style, she blended in as a friend, but captured every single beautiful moment we wanted, from kisses, laughter, tears, hugs, friends and my favourite, the moment our son saw the limo that was going to whisk us to the theatre in London.
    Helen exceeded our expectations by not only delivering breathtaking images, but making the whole experience from booking, the day, the swift delivery of photos, to this, the moment I get to tell you all about how amazing she is, just exactly how we all imagine working with a photographer to be. She really is a special lady, she genuinely cares about your day, and worked tirelessly to ensure ours was as we wanted and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to any couple looking for a talented, personable, romantic and simply awesome wedding photographer.

    Loved Helen!

    Helen was absolutely wonderful throughout the whole lead up to the wedding and the wedding day. She was so helpful with everything we needed, was always on hand to answer questions and flexible. The photos were stunning, she knew exactly where and how to capture the best images. She also got our photo album back really quick after the wedding even though she’s so busy! She is also super lovely and very easy to get on with. Would recommend her to everyone, couldn’t fault her at all.

    Outstanding!

    Helen was so incredible. She made me feel so comfortable from the very first phone call. She had been such a support the whole way through and was amazing on our wedding day. Helen made everyone feel comfortable and at ease. It was a pleasure spending the day with her and having her be a part of our wedding day. She had so much knowledge and understanding of her craft and listened to what we wanted to gave us guidance when needed. I don't think the day would of been what it was without Helen.

    Dream wedding photographer on many levels

    We would thoroughly recommend Helen Weir photography she made us feel very comfortable and listened to what we wanted. She had some great ideas and her creativity was amazing. Helen made everyone very relaxed and as ease and I think this shows in our photos.

    we went to a wedding fair and met several photographers, but upon speaking to Helen we just felt a connection and that carried through onto our wedding day.

    Perfection

    If you are like me and shy in front of a camera then Helen is the photographer for you! She made us feel so comfortable, which meant we had some beautiful shots. She goes above and beyond. Thank you so much

    Incredible positivity, professionalism and commitment to our day.

    We booked Helen on the spot after meeting her at a wedding show, and she did not disappoint. Her communication with us on the lead up to the wedding was amazing. She even sent extremely helpful hints and tips as we prepared for the big day.
    On the day Helen was superb, she knew exactly what to do and when to do it. Her intuition on when to swoop in and get the perfect shot is absolutely priceless. We couldn’t be more grateful to Helen and second photographer Paul for their incredible positivity, professionalism and commitment to our day.
    100% would recommend

    Wonderful experience...

    Our wedding was a small and intimate one, surrounded by family and only a handful of friends. Thus, I was very apprehensive about inviting a stranger to capture those intimate moments.

    Upon meeting Helen, and within the first few minutes of chatting, all my worries, fears and anxiety disappeared. It was like we have been friends all our lives.
    From the planning on our first meet, going through everything we wanted or hoped for, to the actual special day. We felt like we were in good hands, and we were.
    Professional isn't enough to describe Helen's amazing work.

    Thank you so much for your wonderful review. Your day was wonderful and you have some truly lovely friends and family.

    Fantastic and professional

    Helen was absolutely fantastic from start to finish, with all her industry knowledge she was able to give us some much needed direction resulting in some absolutely amazing photos. Helen really provided us with a personal experience and felt more like a friend than our photographer! She would definitely go the extra mile for the perfect photo and has an amazing way of rounding people up for their shots. I honestly could not recommend Helen enough, she was professional, friendly, kind and generally a very interesting and talented person.

    Helen Weir Photography's reply:

    Thank you so much for this wonderful review. Working with you both was a complete dream. May you both have the most amazing future in your marriage.

    Captured our Wedding Day to perfection

    5* Service.
    I was so happy with our Wedding Day pictures and Helen captured the day to perfection. So much so that I found it very difficult to decide the number of pictures I wanted in my Wedding photo album. I loved every single photo.
    I would highly recommend Helen for high quality, professional service.
