What Parents Say About Our Family Photoshoots
We've worked with a variety of families, large and small, single parent and married, many with young children and just as many with older children. We loved them all, as they were such fun and were all a privilege to work with. After every photoshoot we ask our customers for their views on how they felt things went. Over 60 customers gave us a review, with 97% rating us 8 out of 10 or higher (and all of them rating us at least 7). We've grouped together some of their answers under a number of different topics. The words are theirs and theirs alone - here are some of the things they said about us:

What parents said about us working with their children
But what we're most proud about is how people felt about how we worked with their children, to make them feel comfortable, involved and able to contribute if they wanted to:
- Steve is the first photographer that has been able to get my boy to smile in photos and even have some solo pictures taken of him which says a lot.
- My children had great fun which comes across in the finished pictures.
- He is fabulous at engaging children and really encouraged my son with joining in, he is 7 and never likes posing for me!
- We thoroughly enjoyed our family photoshoot with him. He's very friendly, very easy to relate to and he was brilliant with our 3 year old son.
- Right from the start Steve made Twinkle feel comfortable, engaging in conversation with both of us…and also allowed Twinkle to put her ideas into action.
- Thank you, we all had a great time, the kids said you made it really fun for them.
- He's still talking about how much fun he had with you on our shoot, you have a great talent for working with children!
- We really enjoyed it and you are the first person to get Ray to agree to have his photo taken on his own! Thank you so much for making it such fun.
- ...she had a fantastic time and you are the first photographer she's hugged off her own accord do well done for making her feel so comfortable, I was really surprised when she did that!
- Steve was happy for my daughter to express herself with her own poses in addition to what he had in mind. My daughter had a lot of fun flicking her hair around for a shot.
- I haven't seen her so comfortable with any other photographer and we have worked with quite a few.
