RAVES, REVIEWS, AND London WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER RECOMMENDATIONS
Charlotte & Liam

Tori, the photos are unbelievable, just stunning. We are so delighted with them, thank you sooooo much! I can’t stop looking at them! Family agree – just wonderful!
Kiran & David
Photo by Kate Hampson
Kate, My now husband David and I talked to several wedding photographers before enthusiastically choosing you. We were immediately moved by your infectious love for weddings and wedding photography; no nonsense attitude to talking about all things wedding-related (there is no pretense about you whatsoever); and, your proven track record of absolutely gorgeous wedding photography that reflects a commitment to moving away from the staged stock photo-style of wedding photography reminiscent of a different era. Ultimately, however, you drew us in with your down to earth personality; we knew we’d be gaining a friend a teammate in this crazy process in addition to a photographer. And, let’s face it, from one fellow Brit to another, your British heritage did not hurt either! ;-) I was surprised by how much we needed you at the wedding. We had the privilege of working with you ahead of the wedding with some engagement photos (which I highly recommend), and we definitely got to know each other then. As a result, I was so happy to see you again at the wedding, and was reassured by the quality of the engagement photos that you’d do an excellent job again at the wedding. What I didn’t realize was how much my family and friends would also love you! And you captured photos that are just so magical…I don’t think we could have asked for more, and that was surprising!

Photo by Rob Dodsworth
Just wow. Rob, we are completely overwhelmed. We love each and every single one, you have captured our personalities perfectly and have completely surpassed all our expectations. We cannot thank you enough. We love love love them. We have had a lot of comments from people about how impressed they were with you, how hard you worked and how you just blended into the wedding as though you were a guest. We completely mirror these sentiments. We couldn't have asked for a better photographer!!!
