"you have a truly great talent", Victoria, CEO theweddingvine.com

Follow Me on Pinterest
This week, Ian MacMichael photography submitted some recent wedding work to luxury wedding inspiration website theweddingvine.com. They feature the work of some of the best wedding photographers currently working in the UK. Photographer Ian MacMichael said "it's always a little scary submitting work for others to review critically and for them to consider using it on their site". After a couple of days of waiting, we received the following reply from Victoria, their CEO and editor-in-chief. "Mark ( managing director) has just forwarded your images through to me and I had to drop a quick line to say how fantastic they are. Besides how fantastic they are in their own right, they literally brought a tear to my eye - you have caught every emotion and special moment so beautifully for your brides and grooms. They must be utterly delighted with their wedding photography as these truly will become their family heirlooms."
Needless to say that we are absolutely delighted. Some of the work will be featuring on their site in the coming weeks, more info will be posted here as it becomes available.....

Welcome to new wedding clients Hayley and Phil

The week we are delighted to welcome Hayley and Phil as our latest wedding clients for 2012. They found us on the WPJA website so obviously had a really clear idea of the style and quality of photography they were looking for. After a few emails, we met up and they were delighted with our work. They had considered several other "big name photographers" in the wedding sector before coming to us so we are thrilled to have been commissioned for this wedding. It was great to meet a couple with such a clear idea for their photography. Hayley said "We both felt extremely comfortable in your company, and your images were second to none. We both agreed that, honestly there was no point in us 'shopping around'. So, Phil and I both agreed as soon as we left you, that we would very much like it if you and your wife would be our wedding photographers. We are both really excited about working with you both. Our plans have been a little stagnant of late, but we both feel a renewed exuberance after meeting with you!"
We're really looking forward to it too.....
