Graham was a joy to work with and made the process of taking photos of our new family enjoyable. He couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating and took some amazing photos. If you're looking for a professional, friendly and great photographer I wouldn't bother looking anywhere else! I am sure you won't be disappointed with the final photos and memorable experience that Graham provides.

Our family group of 16 included two babies, a three-year-old, a few teenagers and a grandad so Graham had his work cut out but he managed brilliantly with humour and patience. The choosing of the photos was almost as challenging as the actual studio session with so many different variations to pick from but the results are brilliant and a moment in time has been captured forever. Thank you Graham.

We where delighted when we found Graham at a wedding fair 6 years ago now, his work looked amazing and he had photographed our venue on multiple occasions, we had a chat and booked him for our wedding, it was like having another friend at our wedding and the photos are stunning. Since then we have used Graham for family photos and a new born photo session. Graham's personality is great, he is amazing with our children always manages to get the best out of them. We will see you again Graham.
