Best Day Ever!!!

We hired Suzie for our wedding in May 2024 and we never looked back since the day we booked her! Suzie constantly kept in touch and even sent Christmas greetings and countdown to the wedding emails, it was a great way to let us know she really cared about us and our wedding and looked forward to it as much as we did. Nothing was too big or too small and she captured our day perfectly.
We had a pre wedding shoot a year before which was a great way for us to get to know Suzie more and get a feel for being on the camera, she was amazing and made us feel so comfortable right from the off! Suzie even included our little dog Larry and has the most incredible way of getting him to behave in front of the camera. From chicken and cow noises, to loving him as much as we do.
The photos came through quickly as promised and we couldn't wait for our big day!
Our day came and Suzie was right on point, she was by our sides for the whole day although at points we forgot she was there snapping away, she took THE most beautiful photos of us, our family and friends and our stunning venue. Everyone commented on how much love was evident at the wedding and Suzie captured it all so brilliantly!! My biggest fear was double chins and ungraceful shots...... but the happiness that shines through Suzie's photos blows me away. We love them all.

We absolutely love Suzie and she has become a friend, we have already arranged to meet up with her for drinks and for annual shoots!

If you are looking for a photographer who will make you feel at ease, comfortable, happy and captured your day perfectly, look no further. Suzie is the actual best!!!!

Mr and Mrs Gale

As fellow photographers we were apprehensive about trying to find a photographer for our own wedding who could provide the service and product required. Suzi simply ticked all the boxes we required and we are more than happy with everything.

Suzie is the calming influence you need on what can be a hectic day !

I’m so pleased I booked Suzie as our wedding photographer . She has a calming , unflustered nature and really put me at ease on my wedding day . In the run up to the wedding , she kept in touch with phone calls and drew up a plan well in advance for all our planned photos . She researched the venue before hand and knew exactly where to get the best photo opportunities. Lots of my guests commented on her lovely personality and she really caught the fun essence of our day with lots of natural happy photos rather than over posed , “wooden” ones . I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her as a wedding photographer , we were delighted with our wedding photos , wonderful memories to treasure for a long time

Absolutely wonderful!

We were delighted with the photos Suzie took at our wedding. She managed to capture the day perfectly and has provided us with the most precious memories. From the first moment of contact she was extremely friendly, easy going and full of humour. We felt totally relaxed with her and she made the photography a lot of fun. She took so many photos on the day, which even allowed us to see things we had missed and stayed a lot longer than she had to. Her turn around time of the photos was outstanding, sending us some beautiful shots the very next day. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Suzie as a wedding photographer, she was amazing!

Suzie is fantastic!

Suzie really went on a journey with us. We had to reschedule our wedding three times! Yet, Suzie was extremely understanding and flexible. She has a wonderful sense of humour, and had no issues putting smiles on our faces throughout the process and the day itself. It really was a joy to have her, and I'm over the moon about the quality of the photos and the quick turnaround. She was fantastic at capturing so many hilarious and moving moments. Her diligence, commitment, and creativity were so integral in making our day feel super special. It wouldn't have been the same without her. I couldn't recommend her enough!

Outstanding photographer

Suize was fantastic from first consultation and beyond. Always at the end of a message with any questions. On our day she acted above and beyond, snapping any photos we asked despite all the pre planning. She stayed beyond her time (which we don't encourage it's a very long day!) But she wanted to give us the most amazing memories and she did just that! Everyone was complimentary of Suzie and how professional she was during our wedding day and how wonderful the photos have been. We honestly couldn't recommend her enough for any future couples.

Best Energy Photographer

Suzie was great with us from the moment we first met, she was super friendly, super organised and brought such a wonderful energy to our day! She was welcome to suggestions we had and creative with her own ideas and worked fantastic during the day! Suzie exceeded our expectations, she was lovely to be around and had a buzz of energy which really added to our special day! She was very responsive, easy to communicate with and nothing was too much trouble! Would highly recommend :)

A photographer to put you at ease

Suzie was a delight from the first contact email. As a second, shall we say later in life, marriage we were not wanting a full on wedding portrayal. Suzie listened to everything we said and tailored our photographs accordingly. She was attentive and considerate and captured the day perfectly. We and our guests were thrilled with the photos she produced. We didn't have to wait long to see the end results and were overjoyed by the thoughtfulness that went in to creating a wonderful memory of our special day.

Amazing photographer

From the very start Suzie was amazing. Great communication and she made such an effort to know us as a couple and listened to what we envisioned for our wedding photographs. She made us feel at ease at all times, even on our first meeting. Nothing was too much trouble for her. On our day she took the most amazing photo's of us and our friends and family that we will forever cherish. She mingled with our guests and they all commented on how lovely she was. Suzie is a natural photographer and we are so glad that we chose her to capture our day. Thank you Suzie! Lauren & Daniel R

Susie was fabulous!

Susie was a fabulous photographer and we are delighted we chose her to capture our special day. She made us feel so comfortable and took on board exactly what we wanted and when the day over ran Susie stayed to capture everything without hesitation. Communication was excellent, the process, the day and speed at which we received our photos was impressive; we were even sent some highlights early the next morning despite Susie getting home very late. We are delighted with the results and just looking forward to putting our album together. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend choosing Susie for your wedding or event. Thank you so much!

Perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness.

We selected Suzie as our photographer for our Civil Partnership ceremony held at the picturesque Huntsham Court in Devon.

From the outset, Suzie impressed us with her delightful personality and professionalism, guiding us through our requirements with her expertise in this field.

Throughout the event, Suzie seamlessly integrated with our guests, striking the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness.

In the post-event phase, Suzie worked closely with me for several months as we finalized the photos and album. The album's quality is exceptional, offering numerous customizable options that we eagerly anticipate sharing with our family and friends throughout the year.
