From start to finish Roberta was professional

From first meeting Roberta, through to our wedding and the subsequent photo album, she was professional and very flexible in relation to our many changes.
The photos turned out superbly and she was even happy to take us somewhere away from our wedding to satisfy a whim of my wife.
Roberta is very pleasant, easy to engage with and came up with some really good ideas for our wedding.

Perfectly captured our story

Having Roberta photograph our wedding was such a joy, and she was fantastic throughout. We felt so relaxed with her during the planning stages, the engagement shoot, and on our wedding day.

Our wedding was filled with so much fun, as she interacted with our guests and captured every moment. All our guests raved about Roberta at the wedding and afterward!

She perfectly captured the story of our wedding. Photographing not just some of the formal moments but also the more candid ones.

Looking through the photos, even now 6 months later, we are reminded of the emotions of the day and we find it so funny and heart-warming when we go through them, to see what happened in the moments we weren't there.

Our photos turned out spectacularly and we could not have asked for a more perfect photographer.

Roberta, thank you so much - you are truly amazing.

Wonderful wedding photographer

Roberta, was the perfect photographer for our wedding. As a couple we did not have a list of desired photos but Roberta completely understood the style and type of photos we wanted her to capture. Roberta worked tirelessly on the day, she was incredibly professional and personable so it felt like having a friend at the wedding, who also happened to be a fantastic photographer! For many couples, I think this is so important we both felt so comfortable and the resulting photographs showed that. Any ideas we had on the day, Roberta fully supported and she captured some amazing shots, in locations we did not expect. I love photography and it is one of my hobbies so I had high expectations for the photos. Roberta exceeded those expectations and I am so happy we chose her to photograph our wedding. If you are not sure who to chose then I hope this review helps. Thank you so much, George and Steph.

Keeps it Simple and Smart

Working with Roberta for our wedding was simple and honest. She invited us to talk about preferences and requests early and shared with us a portfolio of wedding pictures for ideas. Roberta was also ready to work around any wedding date changes given the pandemic. The standard of setup and photography was excellent on the day: the whole family got on well with her and we are happy with the range of and quality of photographs.

Spectacular photos and a personal servive

Roberta was unobtrusive and just run around taking most stunning photos all day. Her editing was just beautiful, capturing special moments we weren’t even aware of until we saw the pictures. A lovely person and talented photographer ❤️

The finished photos are amazing! Highly recommend!

Just perfect!

We had our wedding abroad but were looking for a photographer to just take some formal family shots at our evening reception in the UK and some informal pictures of the night. The moment I met Roberta I knew she was the one! She understood exactly what I was looking for, didn’t try to pressure us to take more couple photos that we would have already gotten from our official wedding day and didn't try to charge us extra for a full day that we weren’t having, which all other photographers were. Roberta happily moved our wedding to the next year when we had to postpone due to covid and was constantly in touch throughout. She knew exactly what she was doing and when I was getting a bit stressed on the day she noted that and took over so I didn’t have to, which was really appreciated. She got all of our family shots plus sooo many of the evening that capture some really special moments that could have gotten lost in the night. She worked really well alongside the magician we had and was able to photograph reactions perfectly, we were so lucky to have the perfect mix of both formal and informal shots and Roberta was able to capture each of them perfectly. Would 100% recommend and we feel so lucky to have found her! Thank you so much x

Attentive and Personable

Roberta was an excellent fit for us on our wedding day. She melted into the background and produced the most amazing work.

We felt at ease the whole time Roberta took our couple shots and didn't once feel awkward or silly. The photographs captured the essence of our day perfectly and even though we married during covid, the images made the venues look full of life and laughter.
