    Amazing wedding photographer

    Nicola was an absolute pleasure to work with and we cannot recommend her highly enough.

    As a person she is very relaxed, funny and extremely professional. She listened to what we wanted from our photographs and really offers a personal and genuine service. We wanted to be natural and capture genuine moments rather than being formal and stuffy - she more than delivered!

    We also spent time with her at the pre wedding shoot where she put us at ease and captured some lovely images of us and our little pug dog which we also treasure.

    I was so happy to see Nicola on the big day as she is lovely to have around and our...

    Wedding Photography

    Nicola provided us with a very personal and professional service throughout. At the planning stage she took time to find out about us and what we wanted, which really showed during the actual day and in the photographs she took. We loved that we and our guests didn't feel 'bossed about' and a lot of the time she was discreet, living up to her 'secret' name; some of our favourite photos were ones we didn't even realise she was taking! The photographs and album that Nicola created for us really capture the essence of our day. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend The Secret Wedding Photographer.

    Exceptional

    We don’t have enough kind words to say about Nicola! After our initial meeting we didn’t bother meeting any other photographers for our wedding, her work was exactly what we wanted and we really loved her relaxed approach.
    Throughout the whole process Nicola was super responsive, kind and understanding. We’re naturally very awkward around a camera but she made us feel really at ease and made suggestions to help make the process better for us. On the wedding day, she was incredibly sweet, calm, professional and unflappable. We actually felt as though she was a guest, she fitted in so well and everyone commented on what a great choice of photographer we had made. Our full album has...

    My words do not do Nicola justice! She capsulated every moment of the day and now have beautiful reminder of every treasured memory

    Wow! Where do i start. On our first meeting, i knew Nicola was exactly what i wanted and felt completely relaxed and reassured. She was able to guide me a few weeks before my wedding on what i might want as i still hadnt really known what i should be asking. I trusted Nicola completely so knew whatever she created, i would love. And boy was i not diappointed. Im obsessed with looking through my albums. Most of the pictures, we weren’t even aware being taken, and that’s what makes it so special. Every picture is natural and captured pure emotion of the day. I could go on all day for my love for this lady! Xx

    Wedding day

    Nicola was extremely professional all the way through from first meeting her right up to the big day, made us feel at ease as me and my wife don’t like having our pictures taken, we are amazed by our wedding pictures they are better then we imagined they capture the whole day perfectly, everyone at the wedding spoke of how friendly Nicola was and approachable with regards to any photos they wanted taken, would recommend to everyone

    Wow did we make the right choice of wedding photographer

    My husband and I dislike having our photos taken and were dreading this element of our wedding. From our first meeting with Nicola though we were completely put at ease. Her style of minimal awkward, posed photos in favour of secretly captured candid moments really appealed to us. Our pre-wedding shoot was a great opportunity to get to know Nicola and we (including our 2yr old) instantly warmed to her. We were blown away by the photos that she took. The same goes for our wedding photos. Nicola was a wonderful person to have photographing us on our wedding day. Lots of our guests commented on how nice she was and we are over the moon with the photos....

    A perfect day captured perfectly by Nicola

    Nicola captured our wedding using the natural beauty of the Greek Island Hydra as a backdrop stunningly. Her empathy with our thoughts on the location and how it would be used was immediate ensuring our day was photographed perfectly.

    Nicola's professionalism in operating unobtrusively, in a manner that appears effortless allows your event to be captured in the most natural of ways. We have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Nicola.

    Wedding photos


    Thankyou so much for photographing our wedding it deffinetly has been such a long wait and so much has happened In-between. The photographs of the day are perfect even more than we could ask for they captured the day perfectly and these photos are something that we are going to cherish for the rest of our lives as are all the other photos that you have taken for us. I LOVE photos I think people underestimate the importance of photos for example these photos are something that we will show junior when he grows up then possibly to his wife and then our grandchildren, don’t mean to be morbid but when people are dead and gone photos and...

    Amazing photographer

    We highly recommend Nicola. She captured our wedding day perfectly, the photos are so beautiful especially the candid ones.
    Nicola spend time getting to know us as a couple through meetings and the pre wedding photoshoot. This meant she knew what sort of photos we wanted and how we acted together as a couple.
    We also ordered a wedding album, which is stunning!
    So so happy with everything Nicola has done for us.
