The perfect photographer

Desiree was absolutely fantastic during our wedding and engagement photoshoots. She is one of the most organised and professional wedding vendors we worked with, diligently preparing all the important details in advance through regular calls. She made us feel secure in her capable hands.

We were initially drawn to her photography for its bright and beautiful style, but once we met her, we absolutely loved her warm personality and energy. Despite our initial nervousness, she put us at ease almost instantly. This made the photos so much more fun to make and a beautiful memory!

On our wedding day, Desiree and her assistant Grace were extremely professional. Many of our guests commented on how impressed they were with the non-intrusive manner in which they worked, while still managing to capture every important moment of the day. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience, I am in love with our photos!

choosing Desiree was one of our best decisions

With so many important decisions to make for that one special day, choosing Desiree was one of our best.

Desiree was so kind and patient with us throughout our wedding journey, and even helped guide us through the twists and turns of events, that I almost forgot that I hired a photographer and not a wedding planner.

We are so grateful for the time she spent to get to know the feel and style we wanted, as well as her generosity of time invested working on our photos and supporting our follow on requests.

Everyone always says to treasure every minute as your special day will go by in a flash, and it is true, therefore i am forever thankful to Desiree for capturing every special moment.

Impeccable, Reliable, Fantastic

Absolutely over the moon with Desiree and her photos! Quickly, easy and reliable communication, she helped ease some worries and provided solutions when I was faced with issues that I thought may affect photos. She has been wonderful!

Professional, friendly and hardly noticed she was at the ceremony, she was so quiet and out of the way yet managed to capture every special moment!

We worked on a plan so she knew exactly what shots to take and the time keeping was impeccable.

Desiree captured all the important parts of the wedding; our new rings, my necklace locket with my grandmother’s ashes inside, a photo detail I added to my bouquet of my husband’s father who had passed away... it was perfect.

Desiree sent sneak peeks of a handful of photos the day after the wedding so we had some to share and less than a week later we received the email to say the rest of the photos were ready! She’s been fantastic, and we will definitely be keeping her details for future photographic needs!

Strongly Recommend

We're so glad to have chosen Desiree. Can't find the words to describe how professional, friendly and efficient she was for our wedding. Even further, she was very patient and understanding when we ran into a delay during the ceremony. Strongly recommend for any occasion but weddings 1000%.

Best photographer ever

Me and my partner aren’t really photo people but every time we met with Desiree she made us feel comfortable and relaxed.
Everything you have put into your work has been 1000% I couldn’t recommend you enough. The photos are absolutely beautiful before we met you we literally only had a few photos of us together and we’ve been together 11 years! But now we have so many thank you thank you! You really captured the beauty of the day for us. The emails and consultations along the process have been great with yourself letting us know what to expect on the big day ect. Your service has been absolutely brilliant and I’ve not second guessed your work & price ever!!

Gone above and beyond

Desiree is one of the most talented professionals I have ever met.

Her work is breathtaking and she really goes above and beyond to get you your perfect shot, whilst also presenting you with new ideas and always the most heart warming candids.

She has gone above and beyond as not only a photographer, but as a professional and confidant.

When the pandemic hit Desiree guided me on the next steps I should take, whilst as a bride I was bewildered. She was so flexible with all the changes in rules and regulations which then reflected in the changes to our wedding.

She captured the most important day of my life so beautifully and gave me the chance to relive it whenever I look at the pictures she has taken.

I cannot thank her enough. She is truly talented.

Fairy Tale Pictures

Desirée is one the kindest people we've met. You can tell she just loves love. This came across in all our meetings and more so on our day. She took us through the entire process, and didn't miss a single shot we listed. She listened to feedback on engagement shoot, which cemented our decision that she was the only photographer for our wedding. All our guests felt comfortable and had such great feedback on the images. Pictures came back so quickly for both engagement and wedding. Our wedding was on a hot summers day and the sun was blaring, Desirée was constantly looking for the best shot and made sure the saturation levels were perfect. 10/10 a million times over!

She went the extra mile

It was an absolute pleasure having Desiree as our photographer. She went that extra mile in ensuring our photos were perfect on the day. I would have no hesitation in recommending Desiree for any event, she was extremely flexible and always easy to contact. Her professionalism and dedication resulted in photos which were amazing, and something we are extremely grateful for.

Wow! Where to start?!

Wow! Where to start?! Working with Desiree since first setting up a consultation last August 2021 for our wedding photography has been an utter dream. The whole process was so smooth - from booking in a call, to getting to know us as a couple, Desiree was so knowledgeable and friendly right from the get-go. We instantly felt at ease, and knew without a doubt that she was the right fit for our wedding.

On the wedding day itself, Desiree was incredibly professional - working to tight timelines alongside our team of supplier, and she worked seamlessly and discreetly to capture all of those intimate moments with our friends and family at our wedding.

Desiree also hand-picked a second shooter for the day, and we also can't thank him enough for being another capable pair of hands under Desiree's supervision.

Desiree accompanied me on site visits to both the church and reception venue, ably identifying the best locations for group photographs and couple portraiture.

Not only do I count her as our go-to photographer, but I am also lucky enough to now count her as a friend.

Book Desiree for your photographs and you won't be disappointed!

Thank you Desiree :)

A Wonderful Photographer and Genuinely Kind Girl

There are better word-smiths than myself and all my positive feedback has been covered already. Nonetheless I sincerely want to highlight a few traits about Desiree, she is not only a wonderful photographer but a genuinely kind girl. From the start, she was helpful in planning our itinerary and gave excellent advice in terms of lighting and poses. She pointed out potential clashes thus making sure our special day can flow as seamlessly as possible! On the actual day, she captured so many beautiful photos for our wedding. Ranging from portraits, group and candid shots. Her friendly and unobtrusive nature put our guests at ease, so that many cherished memories and tender moments can be relived at a glance thanks to her. My wife and I believe Desiree went above and beyond with all the photos taken. Each time we look over the album, we have a big silly smile recollecting those exact moments. We honestly couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our big day and glad she was part of the celebration. Thank you Desiree!
