Sanshine Photography

San and her team were fantastic. She was dedicated from the start--you couldn't ask for a more hands on and involved photographer. The pictures she took are amazing. It was wonderful working with her and knowing our wedding was going to have some great shots from it. She is fantastic! More...

I used Sanshine photography for my wedding in January 2015 and I couldn't be happier with the photos. I had spent a lot of time researching for the right photographer as I wanted the day to be captured like a fairytale; San created this and more. The photos look like they belong in a wedding magazine and all my friends and family are impressed with them. San also keeps her prices competitive which is amazing for the work she puts into each individual picture. I would also recommend the canvas guest book, this was a lovely addition to the day and it's a great way of displaying kind messages from your loved ones. More...

San and Michael's pictures are beautiful... They captured all the fun and magic of our day so well. The pictures were natural and not staged but a beautiful documentation of our day.

We knew that San would take some good pictures of our son's wedding because we had seen the photographs she had taken at other events. What we didn't expect was the way both she and Mike worked flat out during the whole day to make sure that we got the shots we asked for and the ones that we didn't know we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble for them. Many of the guests commented on their hard work, and also their unobtrusive tact in getting some truly magical natural pictures. We love the album of pictures and the slideshow. The two grooms are delighted to have their day captured so beautifully. I would certainly recommend Sanshine Photography to anyone who is planning a special event More...

San is the most passionate photographer I have ever met. She is a perfectionist when it comes to getting 'the' shot. Her and her husband make a great team. I really feel they got to know exactly what my husband and I wanted from our wedding photos.We had a wonderful engagement shoot and consultation. We spent hours chatting, felt like we got to know each other very quickly. We asked for romantic, non-staged, glamorous and London photos. Even if together this didn't make a whole lot of sense, they created an album for us that was exactly that. They are the most romantic photos I have ever seen and I'm so pleased that we have such beautiful records of our perfect day. More...

I love my headshot photos! San Shawe was great during the shoot where she had her studio all set up to make me feel comfortable. I was timid in not knowing what poses to create, luckily Shawe advise me in straitening my posture and alter facial expression waiting patiently for me to be ready. Thanks so much! More...

We count ourselves very lucky to have had San and his husband as photographers for our wedding. From our first visit with her, it was clear that she is very passionate about her work and that she has very high attention to detail. Her idea of having a pre-wedding photo shoot (to make us feel more relaxed in front of the camera on the big day) was genius and highly recommended. On the wedding day itself, we were all relaxed knowing that we were in capable hands. The photos she took from our wedding are absolutely amazing and you can tell that a lot of work had gone in putting the final touches on the photos. More...

We came across San’s website and fell in love with the images she creates, from the moment you meet San you can see the passion and attention to detail she puts into her work.

We had an engagement shoot with San, and as we are not generally very comfortable in front of a camera it was a great way to get used to being photographed. She was extremely professional yet personable and showed a genuine interest in us and our preferences. She offered great advice and suggestions, helping us to decide on the style and finishing we would like for our wedding photos, as well as planning for the day itself.

When it came to the wedding day, having San there was like having a friend there looking out for you, she went above and beyond our expectations. San and Michael make a great team and ensured they got all the shots we had requested.

We have since received our beautifully presented, personalised ‘wedding box’ and we are delighted with the beautiful images. Our friends and family have been impressed with the quality of the pictures and we have received many compliments. San was able to capture the beautiful moments from our special day and we are eternally grateful to her for giving us such stunning pictures to look back on. We will be lifelong fans of her work and would not hesitate to call on her again to capture any future special moments! More...

I’ve known San for many years, I knew her when she was just starting out taking photographs, and her talent for it was clear back then. When my, now, husband proposed to me two years ago I knew that she was my only certainty- Sanshine would be at my wedding capturing the most important moment of my life.San went above and beyond even before the day. She asked about the colour scheme, if there were any elements of the wedding that where important and needed to be captured, and unlike other photographers (who will try to get as much money from you as possible) - she pointed out the shots that wouldn’t really be needed and those that would be really important.On the day she was the first face I saw as I exited the wedding car with my father, she was a breath of fresh air and my nerves melted away- she was a calming force, and made us laugh. She started as she meant to go on, she was running everywhere, and was consistent- she was even the one who told me I needed to meet with my registrar!During the service I was unaware of her presence, but I have seen a shot from the ceremony, and she was there! Capturing the moments you would be unaware of- and the shots are stunning. She did not overpower a single element of the ceremony, the memories from the service are of my husband, she was like a silent assassin armed with a camera and flash.San did warn me of the time (our service was late, so we were losing light) and ever the perfectionist she directed those that needed and managed to get us into the gardens for our “posy” shots. This is where Sanshine shone! She was acrobatic, climbed and threw herself around taking candid pictures as we chatted. My family were disorganised, and she organised them, something me as the bride couldn’t even do.She wanted perfection from every shot, she really cared about us, and that was so clear. I know her love, as well as our own, will be captured in every picture. She did not stop, and since the wedding every single guest has commented on Sanshine, their glow, professionalism and attention to detail.If you are trawling sites now looking for the perfect photographer STOP I can suggest no better to capture the best day of your life!Thank You SanHayley Igbokwe x More...

I was so confident about Sanshine that I was going to writing this review before I get the photos. Based solely on the experience with Sanshine on the day, and a sneak preview slideshow we got given as a nice surprise and teaser, I knew the photos were going to be amazing, and they truly are. In summary, I couldn't have been happier with the photos. We have a great mix of formal/family, candid, and some stunning funny posed shots. You imagine these shots would take hours and hours to do, with 5 people and 3 tonnes of equipment behind the camera, but somehow, Sanshine managed to make even us look like movie stars with just a two cameras and no other props at all. She even climbed on her partners shoulders to get the right shots. It was like a paparazzi totem pole :-DWe had a small intimate wedding with around 100 guests. With this small number, any other people who are there are kind of obvious and tend to stand out. I was concerned that there would be a divide between the guests and the photographers, who would just stand at one side and ask people to pose. How wrong I was. Sanshine was there from quite early on in the day to capture us faffing around and getting ready, and by the time the guests arrived, she was as much a part of the wedding party as anyone else. Sanshine mingled with the guests before the ceremony and I think this allowed him to work out who was who and who was with who.I am not in general a very smiley person, so I was surprised when I got the photos back to see I was smiling, and even laughing in some of them :-) I realize now the reason for all the smiles is that I was bantering back and forth with Sanshine while she was taking the photos. Although she was running around grabbing every angle, everything just felt very easy and relaxed. Even during the formal photographs Sanshine had everyone in stitches laughing and that shows through in the photos "More touching, More touching !!" was her cry. It was amazing :-) Our wedding day went by far too fast and I was surprised at some of the things we missed. (My wife Hayley never got to see any of the food before the ceremony, I personally never got to see the flowers on the ceremony chairs) but everything is there in the photos; A benefit to having two photographers. Some other points that are worth mentioning :We ran over our allotted time but Sanshine was very flexible in making sure we got all the shots we wanted. It would have been very easy to just send me a bill for more time after the event, but Sanshine made sure I was aware of where we were with regards to time and in the end we got everything done almost to time.I was constantly complaining on the day about the weather because it wasn't as sunny as I had hoped, but Sanshine calmed me down by telling me how the photos would still turn out right.To summarize..... when you think about it, there's very little remaining of your wedding day one month on. The flowers have gone, the guests have flown home, you are back at work :-( About the only thing that remains is the photos, so I think it is a great investment to get the absolute best, and for that I would recommend Sanshine every time.

If you’re looking for some stunning pictures of yourself, Sanshine Photography is exactly what you need! My experience was amazing – though I’m not a big fan of modelling and normally get disappointed with how I look on the pictures, this just wasn’t the case the time! San was keen to know what I wanted from the shoot, how I saw myself and what images I’d like to try. Though I don’t think I was clear on my wishes (as I wasn’t sure what exactly I wanted), they were fulfilled perfectly well! Professional makeover – and I feel like a Hollywood star. Pleasant music and relaxed atmosphere – and I feel free to be myself. With the shoot I got not only fantastic pictures, but also a great experience! And when I saw the pictures… it’s impossible to express – even I was surprised how different and beautiful I can be! I’d definitely recommend Sanshine Photography to anyone I know and no doubt will be booking another fantastic shoot myself! More...

If you're looking for a professional photographer for any occasion then I'd highly recommend Sanshine Photography.A few weeks back I was looking for a photographer and, having arrived at a shortlist of three following some extensive research (based on the quality of images on their websites), ended up phoning Sanshine Photography. From the get-go it was clear that Sanshine were more engaged in the process than any of the other companies I spoke to. Even during the initial call I was asked about my expectations of the shoot and given helpful yet friendly tips in preparation for a photoshoot.The day of the shoot itself was both stress and drama free and a lot more relaxing than what I'd imagined a few hours in a studio would be like. In fairness this is mostly down to San herself who was both warm and professional and was always on hand with suggestions on how some of the images could be improved.When the images arrived I was incredibly impressed with what had been achieved with someone who isn't a natural in front of the camera. The quality of the images themselves was faultless; even beyond what I was expecting.Highly recommended and will tell any of my friends or work colleagues who'll listen that Sanshine Photography should be their first choice of photographer.

I was a first-timer in front of a camera with a professional photographer before I had some photos taken by Sanshine Photography and was blown away by the results. <br /><br />I suppose we all think that photography is as simple as pointing a camera at something and then "click". But the difference in quality between anything I'd done myself with my own digital camera and the images that Sanshine<span id="moreReview411456" class="hide"> Photography produced was incredible. <br /><br />The images were spectacular and the actual process, from sitting down with a professional photographer in order to discuss my needs through to the shoot itself, was friendly, pleasant and enjoyable. <br /><br />Honestly, if you're looking for a photography service for any occasion, I'd strongly recommend you try Sanshine Photography first.</span> More...
