Louise Fairgrieve
General Photography
We got in touch with Sue through "Bark" and have to say it was the best decision we could have made. We asked Sue to quote on doing individual head shots and a group photograph for our Website, Graham Lavin Wealth Management, communication was clear and concise.
Appointment was made and Sue turned up on time and with her infectious enthusiasm soon got us all feeling at ease. Once set up Sue gave us lots of ideas to think about for the shoot, fully explained what she would like us to do and made us all feel very relaxed.
The proofs that Sue sent us after the shoot were brilliant, exactly what we were looking for and for a great price, would definitely have no hesitation in recommending Sue to any of our business colleagues who were perhaps thing of getting these done.

I recently employed Sue to take corporate photos of me for my new website, LinkedIn and business cards. She took the time understand the style and feel of the photos I wanted and knew exactly which location would work best. Sue made me feel at ease during session and she just had eye for the right composition and use of light. I can't be more pleased with photos and the way that Sue ensured that she was meeting my expectations all the way through the process. The sharpness of focus and technical accuracy is clearly noticeable. I can't recommend her high enough and am looking forward to future sessions with her. More...

Susan, was very helpful with the job asked. She arrived at the agreed time, asked lots of relevant questions. She took lots of shots from different perspectives and produced excellent photographs which were exactly what we needed for our purposes. I would not hesitate to recommend Susan to anyone requiring the services of a professional photographer. More...
