Elaine was wonderful on our wedding day. Completely professional, on time, stress free and most importantly had the vision to create the shots that would be perfect for our day. She is confident, great with our guests and has created a set of photos with a range of bright colours and different filters to accentuate the day. We would highly recommend her having had a wonderful experience with her. More...

Elaine came to our rescue after our wedding photographer let us down less than 24 hours before our wedding was due to start. She responded to our requests and requirements immediately offering excellent advice. She arrived ahead of schedule and expertly managed and directed getting some excellent shots of both our families together which could be described as 'herding cats' (c30 people!). We are very happy with the photo's Elaine produced and would recommend her to anyone having a wedding or special occasion. Thank you! More...

Marion & Nick
Hi Elaine,
Thank you so much for the photos, we’ve had fabulous feedback about how you captured the ‘love, radiance, glamour and joy of the day’!
The USB stick arrived and we’re still working our way through the edited photos and have no idea how we’re going to whittle down to ‘favourites’ as there’s so many to choose from!
Thank you again for doing such a great job and capturing the essence of our special day.

Elaine was a star! We were doing a very small wedding and she understood it right from the beginning. She helped us by giving us some great ideas about small details we were forgetting and she would answer to all our messages and questions very quickly. She is smiling and she made us very comfortable. She understood the essence of our wedding very quickly and the photos are beautiful. Thank you so much Elaine for being part of our special day, we don't regret one bit hiring you :-) More...

Elaine responded very quickly to our request and made the process of finding a quote really easy. We had a brilliant chat about what we wanted on the day and she really made us feel at ease knowing that everything needed would be taken care of.

Elaine joined us for our wedding at Foxhills, Surrey, and took a wonderful array of stylish and memorable photos of our wedding day.
Elaine was very professional in the build-up to our big day. We met several times to discuss the photos we wanted and where was best to take those photos on the day. Her communication was clear and punctual throughout.
On the day of our wedding Elaine was very organised and ensured we looked our best in all our photos. She guided our guests and family throughout the long process of getting out photos taken. Her energy and style really shows through in all the finished photos.
We're very happy that we found Elaine and she was able to photograph our wedding.
We would highly recommend Elaine to other couples looking for a wedding photographer.
Thank you once again for making our day super special!
Kind regards,
Gill and Stephen

I came across Elaine on Bark website, advertising as a wedding photographer. I really liked her work. Had a great in depth chat on the phone about what we wanted from our big day. Candid and posed shots. We hired Elaine for 4 hours and she worked hard organising group shots and taking us outside for some other photos. We are over the moon with the outcome and finding it difficult to choose photos to print for frames! Would whole heartedly recommend Elaine with her smiley pleasant manner, hardly knew she was there when taking the candid shots. She has a true talent and worth every penny! More...

Manon Bellais
Elaine did a fantastic job on our wedding day as photographer.
She is extremely professional, creative, kind, patient and very efficient.
We didn't expect such a personal touch, with a very kind introduction to plan out our day carefully, and then Elaine arriving over an hour early to prepare and check out the venue before the ceremony.
Elaine had great ideas on the day for the best positions, and locations for fantastic photographs that have given us a wonderful memory of the day.
We had the photographs back within days, and were extremely happy with them.
We would highly recommend Elaine for any wedding or event.
She is fantastic! :)

Louise
Wedding Photography
Elaine arrived earlier than originally booked to our wedding and managed to capture some beautiful shots of myself getting ready and the groom with his daughter which we weren’t expecting. She was professional organised and always asked and continued to check what photos we wanted to be taken throughout our time with her. She was open to a few suggestions of different poses I wanted to create and edited these from original through to black and white a really nice touch to wonderful memories we have of our special day. Thankyou again Elaine we highly recommend you as a wedding photographer, regards Louise and Pete x More...
Yoli and Alastair
Alastair and I can't thank you enough for taking the photos at our wedding. It was so lovely to see your smiling face as I got out of the car.
The fact that you had taken the time to come to the church and the reception before the actual wedding made me feel much more relaxed on the day as we both knew what to expect and had made a lot of decisions beforehand.
Many of our guests commented about your professional yet warm and kindly approach. Thank you so much for your wonderful eye for detail.

I hired Elaine for a wedding photography in June 2019. Communication with her was excellent. She always responded to my questions and messages in a reasonable timeframe. We set the date a month in advance and kept in touch throughout the whole time. We requested to make it simple and to capture the moment and she did exactly as we asked. She was very professional on the day and helped us create those enchanting pictures we will always be proud of. The pictures were delivered very quickly and the quality was amazing. All in all it was a very positive experience and I will definitely use her services again. More...

Elaine has captured our special day beautifully! The day went by so fast we almost felt we'd missed it and so it's lovely to have a record of every precious moment. Elaine captured everything we wanted and more, ensuring that no guest went unsnapped. We enjoy the contrast of the traditional and light-hearted photographs and in particular, the overhead shots of the whole reception. She also managed to keep her focus despite the antics of the best men! More...
