Wedding photos

Having chosen a very small intimate wedding I was apprehensive about approaching photographers as I really just wanted photos of the actual ceremony. From the outset April listened to what we wanted and reassured that she could offer this.
From the initial contact to the actual day April was great, responding quickly to any queries I had and provided great communication.
On the day April was very friendly and put us all at ease, she was able to capture some great moments without being intrusive in any way.
All the photos were edited and ready for viewing very quickly and we're really happy with our photos, thank you so much for capturing our special day.

Simply amazing

April was really lovely, really friendly. She arrived to our room and got right into it snapping away. She was really professional in every aspect. Guests all commented how professional she was.
As promised, the next day we received our sneek peeks and we just love them, got us really excited for the rest of our gallery to arrive. Cannot believe it's been 3 weeks today. Wish we could do it all over again and if we did there would only be one photographer we would choose.

Highly recommend photographer

We have just received the sneak peak photos from our wedding and they are gorgeous. They are not it the usual style for this photographer, as I has specifically requested sun drenched and bright (even though there were a few spells on the day) she really delivered.

On the day she really understood the vibe of the day, we wanted chilled and fun for everyone, so had minimal posed photos but she was still able to capture some amazing candid ones without anyone really noticing. She was also really lovely and it was a pleasure for her to be a pat of our special day.

April was incredible and I couldn’t have done my day without her! She goes above and beyond I would absolutely recommend!

I found April on a Facebook wedding group, I’d been let down by multiple photographers including having money taken and then being blocked so April was incredible at putting my mind at ease and basically saving the day with only 3/4months notice. April was attentive, she was always busy working on getting shots in the background whilst the day unravelled. Aprils professionalism was 5* she is friendly and very good at visioning shots and utilising space. She made me feel and look like a princess and she put my husband at ease who is very self conscious and was dreading having a photographer. We have so many beautiful memories and April even stayed for the full day despite us only booking a smaller package. She was incredibly flexible with staying longer and allowed us to make the additional payment after the wedding so we didn’t have to sort bank transfers on the day etc. I would 100% recommend wilder photography, the shots we have are so precious and we can honestly say our expectations were blown out of the water. We will be booking a family shoot with April again and will travel to meet with her more locally- that’s how good she is!! She traveled to us in Sheffield too and I couldn’t be more thankful. 10/10 and her alternative wedding shots on socials are sublime!! Incredibly creative!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to make your big decisions easier.
