Norton Grange Hotel Wedding Feedback from Karen & Gary

As I mentioned in an earlier post I was the photographer for my sister Karen's wedding in October last year at the Norton Grange Hotel in Rochdale. Although Karen and her husband Gary have thanked me personally, Karen also sent me the lovely comment below last week. Congratulations again Karen and Gary - you are perfect for each other!!
We always knew the photographs from our wedding would be important to us, but I did not expect them to become so very precious. They are so much more than just photographs as they capture all the emotion of the day so you can relive each moment when you look at them. We have sat together looking over them again and again and never get bored!
As Neil is my brother, I felt incredibly selfish having him take our photographs, but I knew nothing else would compare. I looked at other wedding photographers on the internet and at wedding fairs to try and not ruin the day for Neil, but I just couldn't find anything that seemed as perfect.
Neil's professionalism is phenomenal (controlling a crowd of 150 guests champagne fuelled guests must be no easy feat!), but he made sure every photo we asked for was taken. It is of no surprise to myself or Gary that Neil was recently won his SWPP wedding photography award, every photo captures a moment rather than a image.

Feedback from The Stanneylands Hotel Wedding

Following the feedback I received earlier in the week regarding a wedding I covered last year at the Chancellors Hotel and Conference Centre, I received another lovely email yesterday from Hannah and David, a couple whose wedding I covered towards the end of last year.

Hannah and David got married at The Stanneylands Hotel in Wilmslow. This is a lovely venue and a lucky one for me as each time I have worked there it's been a warm sunny day!

Hannah and David were such a great couple and were extremely relaxed on their wedding day which made for some lovely shots.  To Hannah and David - thank you very much again for asking me to cover your wedding, I wish you both the very best for your future together.

Here is the thank you message they sent to me:
"Hi Neil, My husband and myself are extremely happy with the service you provided on the day of our wedding, you was considerate, creative and professional. The photos were unique and made the most of the setting we had on the day. Lucky for us all, the weather was amazing and that showed through on the photos. the package you offered was exactly what we were looking for (having CDs of our photographs so we could print the images ourselves) and the coffee table book was a nice way to remember the day. Overall the service you provided was wonderful."

Feedback from Chancellors Hotel wedding

I received a lovely thank you email last week from Sam & Rob, a couple whose wedding I covered last year at the Chancellors Hotel and Conference Centre in Fallowfield, Manchester.

The Chancellors is a lovely venue, especially when the weather is nice as the grounds are the back are simply stunning, as you'll see in the photograph below.  Luckily for Sam and Rob the sun was shining on their wedding day and everybody had a great day.

Sam and Rob are a lovely couple, extremely friendly and were great to work with.  I wish them the all the very best for their future together.  Here's the kind comment they sent to me:
Hi Neil, just wanted to say thanks again for the fantastic wedding pictures. The album you put together is a lovely memory of our special day. We had so many great pictures to choose from, we were spoilt for choice when putting it together! On the day itself, we hardly noticed you were there, you did such a great job of blending in, yet still managing to capture some great moments. We chose you as our photographer as you did such a great job at our friends' wedding and we weren't disappointed.
