Amy Louvaine5 Sep 2021

Booked for Wedding

Friendly and professional service from start to finish. Our guests had great fun with the props included and loved the novelty of the mirror aspect as opposed to a normal photo booth. We were then supplied with a photo book the guests had also signed and a memory stick of all the photos! Great value and wonderful service. Would recommend.

Rebecca Monaghan25 Jul 2021

Booked for Wedding

Megan was an absolutely lovely photographer. She photographed our wedding a few days ago. She's was professional, respectful and friendly throughout, nothing was too much trouble for her. She responded quickly to all my contacts and was so understanding with any silly questions I had. I photos we have received in our first look are absolutely beautiful, I couldn't be happier with them. If the rest follow suit I'll be overjoyed. I'd definitely be happy to recommend Megan to my friends and family, and I'd look to book her again if we were having another function. Thank you so much Megan xx

Laura was puntual, very professional and very friendly. She was able to fit our wedding in at a very short notice. I can't wait to see the pictures!

Booked for Christmas party

Sophia was great! We had the pod rather than the booth to allow more space for everybody who loves to jump in the photo at last minute! The function of the booth worked well, and the print outs were quick and high quality. At various intervals, Sophia walked round the event and took photos to remember the night by. We are also expecting online copies of all of the photographs shortly which we are looking forward to. Thank you so much Sophia for arriving ahead of schedule and being so professional. Would use again!

Booked for Birthday party

Mike was absolutely fantastic. He took all the group photos I requested then mingled and took the 'unexpected' and informal ones. Great memories.

Isabella Penna26 Jun 2019

Booked for Other Event

What an amazing photographer! Kevin was easygoing and professional from start to finish, and the photos he took were just beautiful- so many friends have commented too saying how impressed they were. I would definitely recommend Kevin and book him again for photographs at my next event, and he was even so friendly which really made everything run smoothly and was lovely to deal with; thank you Kevin!

We delivered next level parties for exceptional companies

We also did more than 40,000 birthday parties. Probably, including your neighbour’s recent big bash.

If you have specific needs, kindly discuss them with your service provider.

When will I get my photos done?

Most event photographers take two weeks to share your photos, though some may take longer, between four and six weeks. This is due to the number of pictures they are working on.
