Hi Florent, The images look fantastic! It's bringing back the memories again! Thanks so very much for your great work and also for your support on the actual day itself! You kind of became the adhoc time-keeper and a calming presence as you were so organised (more so than any of us) and also joked around with us so that made the day less stressful and a whole lot more fun. As for Thailand, we had a blast! If you ever are in Phuket, you HAVE to go the The Shore at Katathani... amazing. Look forward to catching up with you.

To John and his wonderful team, Thank you so much for your amazing work. I can’t thank you enough for doing such a great job at capturing the memories on our special day, just the way we liked. Thanks for being so understanding and completely flexible on the day. We were probably one of your most chaotic clients (we know that) but your team’s and your calm presence was exceptional. We never felt pressured for once on the day and you just went with flow. All the meetings I had with you before the wedding were informative. It was a great idea to have met you properly before the wedding. We absolutely love our videos and the pictures – they bring us back to the day every time we see them. I particularly love how they capture the happiness and emotions of our friends and families, they are priceless and we can’t wait to show them to our friends and families from overseas! John, sincerely thank you again for making our wedding day so memorable. Your creativity and special ability deserves to be recognized. I have no doubt recommending your service to all of my friends and families and I’m looking forward to future collaborations with you and your great team. Best wishes, Kate Chow
