Jenny arrived promptly and fitted in so well at my Nan’s 90th Party, she gave everyone opportunities to ask for certain Group shots and made us laugh when taking our photos. Feedback from party guests was that Jenny was so lovely and we were saying how lucky we were to find her! More...

Jenny was brilliant; she responded quickly and set up the appointment on an urgent basis. She ensured we both did some thinking and preparations before the photoshoot session and the results were an unexpected range of interpretations within a total of more than 200 shots in the session. The photos were with me within 2 hours of Jenny leaving the house and we were abe to send an "interesting" shortlist of 16 photos to my book publisher thsi morning . A really great service from Jenny - I would thoroughly recommend her and will use her again. Mike More...

Jenny was an absolute pleasure to work with. It was the first photoshoot my stepson had done & he was put at ease straight away by Jenny’s professional and friendly approach. We let Jenny know what we were after and we shot with some fantastic art work as backgrounds which really brought the photos to life. We couldn’t be happier with the end results and would highly recommend. Jenny was really friendly, adaptable and really easy to work with, thanks again.... a big thumbs up! More...

Jim
Professional, friendly and genuine.
Luckily I was recommended Jenny's services by the local photo shop, who said she was great at taking relaxed photos which would be appropriate for a dating profile.
I can't recommend her highly enough. She made me feel very at ease and it wasnt long before she was showing me really clear and relaxed photos.
It's worth the money to have something like this done properly. There's no photoshopping or anything like that, she captures you at your best and has a keen eye for colours. I was really impressed.
Thank you so much Jenny.

Jenny was the most professional person I had the pleasure of dealing with on my birthday. I found her to understand and capture my needs perfectly and I couldn’t have asked for a nicer person to be in amongst my party.
I really can’t thank Jenny enough for all she did to produce photos that the majority of my family have used as profile pictures and I have wonderful memories of my day.
Thank you Jenny absolutely faultless and incredible value for money.
Every family event will now have Jenny present.

Jenny was fantastic, very creative and supportive of what we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble and she had loads of helpful suggestions. Jenny was very versatile as we wanted an outdoor urban theme to the photos and helped us achieve that due to how confident and comfortable she is using the textures and objects around her to create the perfect vibe. Thank you Jenny, we were over the moon with the end result. More...

Vasoulla Baggott
Thank you so much for being fantastic.
With only a weeks notice Jenny was happy to photography my son's christening. She was not phased by it being a greek christening with so much significance , she asked for information and was enthusiastic to do the job.
On the day itself she was fantastic and took photos of all the important aspects and captured so many natural and staged photos i was blown away. Jenny spent time editing them and making sure she captured the best images. Capturing the beauty of our church. Nothing was too much ! Highly recommend

Steve Munns
This was the second time that we asked Jenny to do our photographs, so she had a very good idea what we wanted. However, we were using a different venue than the last time, so the room and lighting was completely different. No problem for Jenny, as she arrived early and was able to chat to the hotel staff to get the correct balance for the Presentation Ceremony. We were honouring a donor who had contributed a large sum of money to our charity, so we wanted the best pictures possible. Just as before, the photographs were wonderful, and have been appreciated by everybody who attended the event. Jenny is very patient with people, especially as they are somewhat out of their depth during the ceremony. She didn't rush off afterwards, and was ready to take extra photos of the donor and our VIP's. We can't recommend her highly enough. More...
Reply from Jenny Lilly Photography
Thanks Steve, it was an honour to photograph such a generous and humble lady.
Narinder

Thanks Narinder. It was a fun photoshoot. Glad you liked the photos. Good luck with the book!
Ms Sethi
An absolute pleasure working with Jenny for a professional shoot, she completely understood what I was looking for and what would work best for my brands identity.

A really friendly person and looking forward to work with her on lots more shoots to come More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
I like people, and I like to get the best photograph of them I can. I have a relaxed, informal manner which puts people at ease very quickly and enables me to capture their personality in a photographic image. Previous clients have praised my ability to create a relaxed atmosphere by making them laugh, which gets the best results. If you want to see how happy I have made my clients, check out my reviews!
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is most important to you - quality or cost?
Have you a brief or do you want me to write a brief for you?
What do you love most about your job?
The smiles and sometimes tears of joy on people's faces when I capture the moment for them.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I was working for a Photography Company and found the work formulaic, so I wanted to do my own work and develop my own style, since then I have gone from strength to strength and have never looked back.
Why should our clients choose you?
I have a wealth of experience photographing children in schools, nurseries and sixth forms, years of experience photographing at Graduations, group photography, Weddings, Balls and Corporate Events.
I can deal with all situations professionally and competently. I enjoy working with people and get the most satisfaction from achieving great photos for my clients.
I always under promise and over deliver and will never let you down.
