Hi Elton,
I really don't know what to say, I don't think words could express quite how we feel.
Huge waves of emotion wash over me everytime I look at them, sheer happiness. The feelings I felt on the day keep coming rushing back to me, you really do have the most incredible gift Elton. You have picked up on all the little things that I was frightened would be missed and all the momentus things that I will never ever forget and captured them perfectly. Thank you so much.
I had emails back from family and friends within 15 minutes of sending out the link!
"I have ordered the one of Abbey and dont know which ones to order of you two they are all gorgeous!"
"Looking at the pictures now. They are amazing. Love them."
"I haven’t seen them all yet and now I have to go get Morgan from school, although think I may be late for her ... can’t stop looking at them"
If you ever need a testimonial or if someone would like to speak to a previous client do bear me in mind. I would recommend you gladly.
Thanks again Elton
Lauren

Morning Elton
Just thought I would send you a quick message to say how absolutely thrilled we are with the photos - and so many! Eddie and I sat down to go through them last night on the slideshow and they brought back so many happy memories. You have captured the essence of the day perfectly - all the laughter, the nerves and emotion of our friends and family. I hadn't realised how smiley we both were! It's going to be hard selecting photos for the book when we already have so many favourites.
Not sure if you can remember back to last year when we first met, but I was so stunned by the beauty of your photos in the example weddings you showed us. Well, you've excelled beyond all our expectations with our own wedding. I can totally appreciate why your work is being recognised by professionals and wedding magazines throughout the country and will (and have already!) be recommending you to friends and family. Looks like there were some keen bidders on who would be next given the shot of me throwing the bouquet!

Hi Elton
I have just cried my way through the slideshow and reliving all the wonderful memories from the day. I am so looking forward to Ian getting home tonight so we can look at them together.
The photo's are absolutely fantastic and so many. They tell the story from the beginning to the end of the day. I can not thank you enough for them, even though it rained it absolutely ruined nothing it was totally perfect.
I have already forwarded the link to everyone and put it on Facebook so hopefully it will give you even more exposure as I have included the link to your website, I would recommend you to the world as a wedding photographer, and photographer your pictures are fantastic.
Once again thank you so much.
Claire & Ian James

Hi Elton
I just thought I'd send you some snippets of emails I received after sending out the photos, I know how important testimonials are when you have your own business, so here you go...:
“Wow Kat, absolutely stunning photos, you must be completely thrilled with them!! Good luck with selecting your favourite hundred or so, there are so so many gorgeous ones to chose from! Is the company a family connection? If so, what a talented photographer you are related to. There are some beautiful ones of you, and I love the ones of you and Steven with the fabulous Richmond/London backdrop behind you... so lovely. So many fabulous natural friends and family shots too, wonderful!” Lucy
“WOW, how fab are those pics”
Mel Kinsman (make-up artist)
“Wow, those photos are amazing! You look so stunning and the whole wedding looked so romantic! Just beautiful!” Bree
“WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. They’re just so overwhelmingly beautiful!” Amy
Lots of “wows!” And two of my friends said they were the best wedding photos they had ever seen (and they are married!!)

Thank you so much for not only agreeing to photograph our wedding but for capturing all those little moments that maybe one of us weren't able to see.
Your photos have captured some truly beautiful moments and all the family and our friends have loved going through them as though they are retelling the day. I have to commend you for the absolutely stunning photo you managed to capture of my mother - someone who hates the camera and having her photo taken and you have photographed her without her even knowing it - so thank you for that, this photo will be treasured by both of her daughters. Thank you Elton for being perfect on our special day - everyone has commended you and I know a friend has already contacted you regarding her wedding.

Hi Elton,
We've been looking at the wedding photos over the weekend on the slide show and I justed wanted to email you to let you know how much we absolutley love them and how FANTASTIC they all are. You captured the day in such an amazing way and caught not only the specialness of both venues, but also the nervousness, excitement, happiness and love of all the guests and family members and myself and Fergus. We are so so pleased and now are fretting over which ones to choose to put up where in the house!
Thanks so much again for all the hard work you have put into giving us those fabulous memories.
Best Regards
Rachael & Fergus

Thank you again for our lovely pictures. After you left, James and I went through them all and they brought back so many lovely memories. We were half contemplating getting someone to video the whole day, but we really didn't need that with you as our photographer. You captured so many special moments, many of which we completely missed! So thank you once again for being such an instrumental part of the day and for capturing it for posterity. It was a pleasure to have you with us on our lovely day.
I hope that we will meet again either at friends' weddings (we are recommending you to EVERYONE!) or when we decide to have some children and we need some lovely pictures of them! There is almost a temptation to get married again just to re-create how lovely it all was!
All the best,
Gemma

Thank you for the amazing pictures you took for our wedding, not only did we have a fabulous day, we have the pictures to prove it.
What I really appreciated on the day was your calm support, gentle guidance and creative ideas.
Of the many pictures which hold equal place as favourites, the one that stands out is the dramatic black & white shot of me holding my son, Alfie. It's so romantic and beautiful, it's the first picture I think of when I think of my wedding and even though he's not in it, it's Michaels favourite too.
Thank you so much for enhancing our memories of the day, I would definitely recommend you (and already have) to anyone who wants personal stunning pictures of their day.

Hi Elton,
I just wanted to say how pleased Bruce and I are with the wedding photos – I had hoped that ours would be as stunning as all the others I had seen on your website and we weren’t disappointed! You made us all look like film-stars and there were so many special moments caught which we will treasure forever. We just couldn’t be more pleased with the end result and I have been recommending you left, right and centre!

Hi Elton,
Thank you so so much for our incredible photos. We can't stop looking through them and remembering what a wonderful day we had. You exceeded all our expectations with the quality of your work and number of moments that you captured. The service you have provided has been excellent, from your initial one to one meeting to the way in which you present the final photographs. We are so pleased we chose you as our photographer and we won't hesitate to recommend you to all of our friends.
Catherine & Tony

Dear Elton,
We both wanted to Thank you so much for our amazing wedding photographs. We have spent the last month or so doing the rounds, showing everyone our beautiful photographs and we have had so many compliments. My Dad even got a little tearful looking at them.
You captured our wonderful day perfectly! Looking at them brings back the whole day, from the sweltering getting ready, the nervous looking groom to our family and friends enjoying the beautiful grounds of Buxted Park. Your photos are truly amazing! We have about 100 favorites, so it looks like the house will soon be a wedding day shrine!!!
Thank you again, we couldn't have been more happy with our photographs. You will, of course, be very high recommended to all our family and friends with upcoming weddings.
Kind regards,
Trevor & Contessa

Hi Elton
Okay - I have gone through them all about 4 times now and each time I love them a little bit more! I have to admit I am not that keen on photo's of myself usually but there are loads that I adore here - you have also got some cracking ones of Al and his family. I am over the moon with the results - thank you!

You truly captured the most perfect moments of our perfect day that will remind us for years to come of how lucky we are to have each other and what a very special day we shared with the wonderful people we love.

We will not forget the time Elton came over to our house to show us our wedding pictures for the first time. It was the next best thing after the wedding itself! The pictures moved us and made us relive all the wonderful moments. During the day we hardly noticed him but dealing with him afterwards was like dealing with a friend. He had a difficult job to do since our ceremony did not have many of the traditional wedding moments like a cake or a first dance. But he did a great job and we have already recommended him to all our other friends who are getting married!

Elton,
Just a short note as I was not here when you delivered the book. We’re very pleased with the end result; it’s the perfect way to capture the perfect day. Thanks again for your professionalism from the outset and excellent results, we will continue to recommend you to everybody who asks!
Best wishes

I was one of the [Catherine's] bridesmaids and even though very tired i enjoyed the day to the fullest. I have just looked through the pictures and cried my way from start to finish pretty much like the day - you captured my best friend ever and her wonderful new husband and made their wedding day memories last forever - thank you so much for that - none of us will EVER forget that wonderful day - and if i get married i will definitely be calling you!
Thank you again.

Dear Elton,
Myself, Rob and both our families would like to thank you so much for the wonderful photos you took of our wedding day. Every photo really catches the magic of the day and every time I look at them I get a tear in my eye. You were very helpful and professional on the day, and I was impressed at how organised everything was and yet how unobtrusive the photos were to the day. We cannot thank you enough for giving us these happy memories.
Best wishes Catherine Beck

We just wanted to drop you a note to say that we are so pleased with the photos from our wedding. We decided to wait until we got back from honeymoon to look at them so we had something to look forward to, and we weren't disappointed. They are absolutely fantastic.
Thanks so much for all your hard work - it was a pleasure to have you there on the day and the results are just stunning!

Hi Elton
Just a quick email to say that we looked through the photos on line last night and are absolutely thrilled with them. We're so excited to show my parents at the weekend and begin the selection process for our book. It's so wonderful to see our day presented through such beautiful pictures.
Kind regards
Hannah
