    Brilliant Photographer

    This lady is a lovely caring professional photographer. On our daughter’s wedding day we were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. So we had a double service as we renewed our vows as well.
    Gillian captured so many moments of the day both formal and informal. Leaving us with treasured memories of an extra special day that was both emotional and happy. I can’t thank or recommend you highly enough for making the day as special as it was. Thank you Gillian xxx

    HI Barbara
    Thank you so much for your wonderful review, it is so appreciated. It was a fantastic day and even the rain at the beginning of the day didnt spoil it. We got so many lovely images of both of you and I am so pleased that you love them.

    Many thanks again
    Best wishes

    Outstanding

    Gillian was brilliant, didn't faf just got on with it. She made us laugh, took the most perfect pictures both posed and natural without us knowing. We received the picture very quickly and absolutely love them. We totally recommend Gillian for any event you may be planning.

    Lovely person

    Gillian is a lovely person to have around on your special day. She’s extremely professional and knowledgeable and blends into the background just snapping away. We loved the casual shots that she did of the wedding guests, as much as the formal shots. She also did some funky shots in black and white with a spot of colour, which were very effective. We were running a little late by the end and Gillian didn’t mind working a bit over time. Great value for money.

    Party pictures

    I was introduced to Gillian at Swan photography and I asked her to take pictures of my special event, of which she was willing to do.
    I was thoroughly pleased with the outcome of all the pictures, that she had taken.
    Gillian captured the moment perfectly and I was very pleased with all the pictures from the event.

    Great photography

    I was introduced to Gillian and I had a special party coming up so I asked her to do my pictures for my party, it was a fantastic evening and I was over the moon when Gillian showed me the pictures.
    I would highly recommend Gillian at Swan photography they were natural live exposure pictures.

    Would recommend to everyone

    Gillian is a fantastic photographer and a wonderful lady. We had a great time with her on our special day a few weeks ago (24th August) and are still going through the photos (over 2000 of them) She got some really beautiful shots as well as some very funny candid ones. We are going to have trouble deciding which are our favourites. Thank you so much Gillian xx

    Hi Sam
    I'm so sorry that I havent repsonded sooner, its been so hectic and I am only just getting back to everyone. What a wonderful year and your wedding was just a fantastic day.
    Thank you so much for your wonderful review it is so appreciated. I have asked Darren if he would kindly do a review too. I need a minimum of 7 reviews by December in order to be considered for an award next year. I wonder if your parents would kindly post one as well. It all helps with building the business.
    Thank you so much Sam for taking the time to post your review.
    All my very best wishes to you all

    Highly recommended photographer

    Gillian photographed our wedding at Normanton Church and for our wedding breakfast at 'the Barnsdale' .
    We met Gillian at both venues a few weeks before the actual day so we could go through what my husband and I wanted, plus get some ideas of Gillian on what she thought was the best being a professional.

    Gillian is fun, caring, reliable.

    We first met her a couple of years before our wedding at a friend of ours and we loved her.

    Thank you Gillian.

    Fantastic work well recommended

    Gillian is fantastic, she’s easy going and knows what she’s doing. Engaging, supportive, and listens.
    I gave her a list of photos that I wanted and she smashed them out the park and when I asked for more on the day, it was no issue. The camera never stopped snapping away. So appreciated and thank you for being part of our day! Xxx Jamie and Hannah

    Amazing!! Can not thank Gillian enough!

    Gillian was lovely from the first phone call to our wedding day, responding quickly to any emails/messages and answering any questions we had. On our first meeting at the venue with Gillian, she made us feel comfortable straight away and excited with all her ideas of great photo opportunities. Gillian was professional throughout our day and made sure we got all the photos we requested and more. I cannot fault Gillian in any way. She really was amazing. The photos turned out beautifully which were sent through email for us to have on our phones and a beautiful memory stick sent to us through the post for us to forever keep. Thank you so much Gillian!! We love looking through them and remembering our special day!

    Hi Sarah
    Thank you so much for your lovely and amazing review it is so appreciated.
    I am so pleased that you were happy with the pictures and thank you again for allowing me to be part of your special day.
    Your choice of location was beautiful and we were so lucky with the weather which allowed us to take both inside and outside images, there were so many I loved of the day.
    It was lovely to work with such an amazing couple.
    Take Care
    Best wishes
