Zoe Sent on 23/09/2025Beautifully done pictures!
Gillian is wonderful, full of laughter, and excellent at capturing in the moment and formal pictures. We asked for her to join us on our wedding day at Rutland Water at Normanton Church (such a beautiful church and venue) she was there on the dot, straight in action! She chatted to us prior with ideas when we previously at the venue, she chatted to all our guests we pretty much let her just crack on with everything as we are not very photogenic people! She has produced some beautiful pictures for us to look back on! Some stunning scenery ones, decor and of course bride and groom pictures! Will 10/10 recommend! Wonderful lady!Swan Photography's reply:

Lisa Sent on 28/08/2026Gillian captured our special day perfectly.
Just had our wedding photographs and video clips (1500+!) through from Gillian and wow you’ve captured our day perfectly. We met with Gillian at the venue the day before to run through things prior to our special day- she went above and beyond, even staying at our venue the night before so that she was ready for the early start!
Nothing was too much trouble; the pictures are absolutely amazing and tears of joy again from rewatching our aisle walk and the speeches!
We can’t thank you enough for everything you did for us and we are so glad you were there to share it with us, our friends and family.
We would highly recommend Gillian to anyone who wants to have a special day or event captured beautifully. We wish you all the best, Wahey!

Amazing Photographer!!!
Gillian was very informative from first contact regarding photo's usually taken at weddings aswell as running order of the day for a couple who didnt know.
Then the big day came and Gillian wasnt just a photographer for us, she helped finalise decor, help bride into dress and was a massive support and calmness we both needed thoughout.
Photo's were previewed with us throughout the day, which looked lovely then but after receiving a selected few with some amazing edits, we both are excited to see the rest.
Personally for someone who isnt at all serious and doesnt like all eyes on them, I would 100% recommend Gillian as she made me feel so comfortable, understood my sense of humor and allowed my wife and me to be ourselves, this is also reflected withing the photo's taken.
Gillian for us also wasnt just a supplier she mingled with the rest of the party and became a guest to us and everyone there.

Hi Jodie and Emma
Wow, thank you so much for your amazing review, it is so appreciated. It was a wonderful day and I thoroughly enjoyed both taking the pictures and joining in at the end of the evening. Normanton Park Hotel is such a wonderful location and the day was captured perfectly and ending with the sunset, just breathtaking.
Thank you again for asking me to be your photographer and for allowing me to be part of your special day.
Your photos will be with you shortly.
Here are a few more attached to this reply
All my best wishes to you both

Amazing photographer!
We found gillian while looking for a photographer at a time when planning was stressful and the amount of information we were processing with different vendors was crazy, however when we contacted swan photography we were suprised by how the package offered was simple to understand and that it was a fixed price with out having to pay extra for things as everything we wanted was included as standard. Gillian explained everything that she does and what to expect and made us feel confident in hiring her for her services. Leading upto the wedding we were in constant communication via phone and email to discuss differnt aspects and he also had a face to face meeting at the venue to discus locations and what photos we wanted to get of families etc. On the day gillian was amazing! She was also moving around getting photos of the venue, guests etc and she knew exactly how to get guest in the correct place to get the photos that we wanted and it really took any stress out of the day and if we needed a break, that was fine and she would go round letting people know who would be needed when we started again. So thankyou so much for making our day magical and for giving us so many amazing photos that we sill treasure forever and to anyone who is confused with all the photographers offering loads of different extras/ services, speak to swan photography as they keep it simple while still giving a quality service and a day youll never forget!Swan Photography's reply:
Hi Philip
Thank you so much for your wonderful review I was so touched by the content, it is so appreciated.
Is it possible for Megan posts one as well (I will send her over a request shortly), it really helps with building my portfolio and gaining new couples that are looking for a photographer for their forthcoming wedding.
I will be posting your USB stick out to you early next week. When using the USB stick please remember to allow all the images to download (normally takes about 45 minutes) before removing the stick from the computer please right click and press eject, this ensures that none of the images will be corrupted. Your computer/Laptop will let you know when it is safe to remove.
Thank you again for booking me as your wedding photographer, it was such an amazing day.
Warmest wishes
Gillian

Hi Carole
What a wonderful review, thank you so much for your comments, it is so appreciated. If you could also ask Barry to do a separate one, it really helps towards getting hopefully another award next year. I will send him a little reminder as well. I hope you received your USB stick in the mail okay.
Thank you again for your review.
