We can not recommend Jonathan highly enough and working with him was fantastic. He got exactly what we wanted for our event and blended in perfectly. He was professional, friendly and really easy to work with. Can't recommend highly enough.

Booked for Anniversary
Brilliant and highly recommended. Brian blended in so well with the taking of his amazing photos, there were no uncomfortable or awkward moments at all, as in "the photographer is watching". We got exactly what we asked for, we got family photos before the event and then the photos of guests mingling and dancing, we got some super cute photos of our granddaughters on the bouncy castle as well as natural photos of them playing on the dance floor. We literally got everything we wanted and are super happy. Highly recommended and would definitely use again. Thank you so much Brian, for helping to make our event successful.

Booked for Birthday party
Cliff was great. Punctual, friendly and approachable. He was readily available last minute for my parents birthday party, and has given us some lovely photos to remember the day by. I originally asked for 6 hours but he captured enough in 5 hours so we were flexible and called it a day early which was absolutely fine by us. Highly recommended!

Aryan arrived sharply, introduced himself and set up his equipment quickly. He asked us what vibe we were looking for, and was happy to do both candid throughout and posed afterwards.
He told me before he left what the next steps were to access the photos, which were clear. The photos are varied and amazing in quality, we're smiling looking through them.
Very nice man, amazing service, wonderful photographs, and absolutely worth the money!
Thank you so much Aryan!

Booked for Birthday party
Krystan-Grace was absolutely wonderful to work with! She photographed a series of family events for us and we couldn’t be happier with the photos we received from her! Many people have praised the quality of the photos and the lovely collection she captured. The resolution was high, there were so many to choose from, she excelled in both candid and portrait-type shots, and her turnaround time was amazingly fast!
Perhaps even more importantly, she was an absolute gem of a person to deal with! I was making the arrangements from Canada and was somewhat wary of using a booking system that I wasn’t familiar with, but Krystan-Grace was very responsive and she was so patient and kind in answering all of our questions. She ensured there weren’t any unpleasant hidden surprises and definitely assuaged any doubts we could have had. Moreover, Krystan-Grace offered helpful suggestions to help us maximize our budget and graciously adapted to our changing plans.
During the events, she wove her way seamlessly through the crowd and captured many meaningful moments that we now cherish. In fact, our guests were so impressed with her professionalism and pleasant demeanor, that several wanted her business card even before seeing the final photos (which only further prove her talents as a photographer).
I highly recommend Krystan-Grace Photography and would happily work with her again if I have the opportunity to do so. Thank you so much Krystan-Grace!
