We had seen Melanie’s work through the reviews on this app and checked out her website before reaching out to make an enquiry. What drew us to her work was how she captured all the small details and made the most of the surroundings and backdrops at the venues. We had a fun Get to Know you shoot before the wedding which I think is a great idea to break the ice. On our wedding day at the start of Jan 2026, Melanie captured all the special moments we had asked for and more. She was brilliant at ensuring none of the ideas we had discussed got missed. We got our first look photos the next day and the full suite of photos arrived a few days after that. We were so pleased with the results and have had many compliments from friends and family about Melanie’s work. We would not hesitate to recommend Melanie to anyone. Thank you so much for helping us capture such amazing memories, you are so talented.

We first fell in love with Liam long before the wedding day itself. Despite the four‑hour time difference between us at the time, he took time out of his afternoon with his children to meet us on a video call. That alone spoke volumes. From the moment he appeared on screen (happy, upbeat, full of life and smiles) we knew he was someone special. He put *us* at the heart of the conversation, but he also made sure we understood something important: that our bond as a couple would be the foundation of the day’s success. And honestly, hand on heart, my husband and I genuinely believe that the success of our wedding was in huge part thanks to Liam and Harry. Months have passed since the wedding, and whether we were chatting with guests the following morning or catching up with family over Christmas, we can guarantee that Liam and Harry are always mentioned. Every single person has described them as “making the day” and “amazing” and we couldn’t agree more. Their names come up with the same warmth and excitement every time, which says everything about the impact they had. We still talk about them and everytime its the same excitement level! Liam and Harry were incredible in every possible way. They were relaxed, friendly, and instantly felt like part of the family. They joined in with everyone, there is genuinely a photograph of Harry playing football with the groomsmen at one point, which still makes us laugh. But alongside all the fun and joy they brought, they also cared deeply about capturing the photographs that mattered most to us. They did it all coolly, stylishly, and with effortless grace. We love *every single* photograph. Liam even sent us a selection of 40 preview photos less than two weeks after the wedding, which was such a thoughtful touch. And what should have been around 500 final images turned into 750. I’m still discovering new favourites now; pictures I hadn’t had the chance to fully appreciate yet because there are just so many beautiful moments. We honestly can’t put into words how much we loved having Liam and Harry with us: on the day itself, in the meeting beforehand, throughout the build‑up, and in the way they helped shape our wedding into something unforgettable. They truly made our day. If we had to do the wedding all over again, it would be Liam in a heartbeat.

Tom & Martin captured our day perfectly, they were both friendly and on hand leading up to, throughout the day and afterwards. Any question or concern we had Tom was able to resolve for us. They were with us from getting ready until almost the end of the night, any additional pictures we wanted they were available for, and our couple photos are lovely with some very creative ones using the light and surroundings. They were professional but also made us feel at ease with humour and fun ideas. The on the day slideshow at no additional cost was a lovely addition to the day, which everyone commented on and enabled our evening guests to see the events of the day before any photos were shared wider. The photos were beautiful and edited so quickly, within two weeks, meaning we could re-live the day as soon as we were back from our honeymoon. The album design Tom produced is amazing, the album quality is better than we could have dreamed and tells the story of the day so well.

John was absolutely fantastic to work with! He made us feel comfortable in front of the camera and was totally flexible with us having as many or as little photos as we wanted. He captured the day perfectly for us, and was lovely company too! We also booked a videographer via John and he was also fantastic!

Gemma is amazing! She kindly shot my little microwedding and we had the best time with her. She made us feel really comfortable and my guests loved her. She’s great at getting everyone in place and organised, there was no waiting around trying to get everyone together, Gemma keeps them in check! She’s polite, friendly and willing to do above and beyond to make your day extra special.

We chose Gary to photograph our special day, and so glad we did, we had the basic package to cover the ceremony,which had 30 guests. Gary was very prompt on arrival and professional throughout, he covered all that we wanted and accommodated some extra photos we asked for. Even the after service was great staying in touch until the USB of our day arrived and we looked through them, we were not disappointed, a big thank you, would absolutely recommend. Paul and Jayne Morris.

Lucy gave me tips and advice on who I want pics with. I Recommend doing that for VP less commotion and to get every one that needs to be included, she came to my evening venue early to take photo's of it pre party, she was with me whilst I got ready with MOH sister an MUA, very thoughtful placing of my accessories and my dedications to people I’d recently lost, she was fully focused on being discreet but forceful when hurding the guests, she recommended the confetti and ways to throw it to make best shots, my wedding was 4.30 in February light was fading so again guided us on best shots. edited glares off glasses and edited unwanted items at my request, every picture was put on a quality usb stick in a box. Were easy to print, I asked Lucy a few months after the wedding to edit a particular photo as had messy tables, I wanted them clear. she did it asap so I could have it framed and gifted to the loved one. Lucy had a calming presence but very focused on the job in hand. She made our day! Thank you with love mr and mrs carvalho 22.02.25
