Over the moon with our wedding album! Amy created some beautiful and creative images. She also made us feel comfortable when shooting on our own.

Exactly what we asked for!

Amy was a delight to work with, she was so friendly and understood the brief of our hybrid Hindu/English country wedding. There are some priceless and beautiful shots in the album she shared with us which we can't wait to frame around the house! Would 10/10 recommend Amy - what a gem.

So glad we chose Amy

We had Amy to take photos at our wedding ceremony and evening reception. She is very friendly and just makes you feel at ease especially important for my husband who doesn’t normally feel comfortable having his photo taken. Communication up the day was spot on. She was great with our guests. Could round people up for group shots but also took the natural pics we requested so sometimes didn’t even realise she was there. We are just so glad we had Amy. She provided us with these beautiful shots of our perfect day to cherish forever. Thank you Amy.

Fabulous wedding shots

Amy took fantastic pictures of our day and we are so pleased with them. She made us feel relaxed and managed to get pictures of everyone without us even knowing she was there. She captured beautiful natural images of all of us as well as the usual more formal shots. We are so glad we found her and also that we booked the full day from prep to first dance. The photos have told the story of our wedding day and will be a lasting reminder of the fantastic time we all had.

Loved working with Amy! Would recommend 100%

Working with Amy was stress-free and enjoyable from start to finish.
From initial planning to meeting her at our pre wedding shoot, Amy is very responsive and we loved the extra special touch of sending us a cute thank you box in the post.
The pre-wedding shoot was a great opportunity for myself (and all the family tagged along) to get to know Amy and immediately it was clear she puts everyone at ease and a bonus is great with the kids!
On the day Amy was part of all the action, capturing our most funny and heart-warming candid moments and the photos we got are PERFECT! I would highly recommend Amy to anyone looking for a photographer.

Absolutely fantastic!

Amy is incredible. Her photography skills are fantastic. From our pre wedding shoot, she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed. On our wedding day, she took so many incredible photos, you could see the joy and love through the photos. She took so many photos of different things that we may have missed on the day, which made us smile so much looking through the photo’s. We had so many compliments from guests about how approachable she was. We can’t thank you enough.

Provided a great service with a great product for us forever

Amy takes photos is a great supplier for your photos. We got a pre wedding shoot, lots of photos of our special day and was flexible with her time as we had registry and reception on seperate days. We got alot of photos and was able to get them in a timely fashion. Amy takes photos should not be overlooked as someone to take your wedding photos.

Perfect wedding captured

We had a very small wedding with just close family and friends, but still wanted to capture our special day. Amy was perfect from the very first moment we spoke, understood exactly what we wanted and when the photos came back we were blown away.

A perfect experience

Amy was fantastic right from our consultation, she was completely on board with what we did and didn’t want and made us feel completely at ease. On our wedding day she was like a magician, bold enough to run the show and get everyone into place, but then melting into the background to capture these beautiful, intimate shots of us alone. She let us be us, and it shines through in the pictures. I sobbed when our photos arrived, I never knew we looked that beautiful together.
