Wedding photography testimonials

A million thanks once again for making our wedding day so special. It was wonderful having you there and we can't wait to see the photos!!

It was truly a pleasure and delight meeting you and hopefully our paths will cross again one day - until then, all the very best.

Dear Mike,

Just thought that we would drop you a line to thank-you so much for our wonderful new wedding album. We are absolutely thrilled with the end product and we finally have an album that we can be proud of and that we'll cherish forever. We can't thank-you enough.

We're off out in a short while to show it off to our parents and can't wait!

Thank-you again for all of your hard work Mike, we really have appreciated it.

Finding a photographer for our wedding to us (and surely most people!) was not just entrusting someone to record our special day for posterity, but also adding to the day with their presence.

Not only did you manage to record our day beautifully, but you did it in a way that made the whole process more fun, spontaneous and enjoyable. You were like part of the family, never intrusive or bossy - always calm, warm, humorous. And a top-notch photographer to boot!

Warmest wishes Rosa and Guy

We were delighted with the DVD of Alison and Tome's wedding. The family came round and viewed it at the weekend, there were so many good comments, and your ears should have been burning. You captured the occasion beautifully; it was not an easy task with the Japanese language translating but your expertise came through.

We will treasure the film of Alison and Tome's special day, and we wish you well in your future work.

Yours Sincerely Jo and Ted

All we can say is WOW! The album arrived safe and sound last week and we were so pleased with the results. It's a superb memory of our day.

It's been a real pleasure working with you. You have made what could have been a very stressful activity most enjoyable and produced amazing results as well. We would heartily recommend you to anybody else looking for a photographer. And the same goes for Jayne and her wonderful video work too.

Best wishes to you, Jayne and Emma

We've now had the opportunity to look at your photos of our wedding more than once and our appreciation grows each time. You really captured the essence of the day; we are so pleased that the posed shots were kept to a bare minimum.

Your ability to get such good results went beyond technical expertise and was due, I think, to your transforming yourself into a guest rather than remaining as an aloof contractor.

We shall be sending an order for some reprints soon. Thank you for your contribution to our day and let us know if you're ever visiting Sydney.

Best regards,
Stephen Kovacs

Dear Mike, Jayne and Carolina

We just wanted to say (another) massive thank-you. You guys were professional, great fun and totally on our wave length. We got exactly what we wanted and much much more. You guys are all absolutely great and key to the success of our day.

Love from Lucy and Matt

Excellent friendly service before, during and after the wedding. On the day Mike made all our guests at ease with a cheerful friendly manner and captured the spirit of the day with a fantastic range of shots both posed and natural, Mike also at our request took some more unusual "arty" shots that turned out brilliantly. Recommended to us by friends, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone.

There is no "cheap" when it comes to Wedding photography - but we felt the rates were very good value for the exceptional service and end product (and we are not rolling in money!)

After leaving you with our pictures, we had a leisurely lunch and again poured over the all the pictures from our wedding, trying to decide on our 50 - 60 favorites for the album. Even after an hour or two we still came up with about 90!

Thank you so much for taking such a crucial part in our wedding. You captured so many memories and amassed a whole range of ones we didn't even realise we had. They painted a more complete story of our wedding day than any video could have done - so many moments captured in time for posterity, showing a whole range of happy emotions on both us and our guests faces.

I am never one to naturally feel at home in front of the camera, but you really did make me feel at ease, so that the pictures of me do not look forced or posed! The more we both look at them, the more we feel a little pride in ourselves at having chosen you as our photographer - they really are fantastic. We can't wait for them to be put on your web site, as we've told all our friends and family to look out for them soon. If ever you want an independent opinion for any future clients, please feel free to use us.

Once again, thanks for bringing together so many fabulous memories.

After a lot of searching to find the style of reportage photography we wanted for our wedding photos, we approached Mike. From the outset he was not only professional, but wonderfully relaxed, and really listened to what we wanted.

On the day both he and Jayne were fantastic with our guests, good natured but unobtrusive, but best of all Mike captured our wedding perfectly. From the small details, to the family portraits, to the two of us enjoying our day (which we did, a lot) - we have got a lovely record of the day.

I would recommend Mike without reservation if you are looking for someone who takes their job seriously, is relaxed with you and your guests and who takes evocative, detailed, reportage photos to the highest standard.

Mike is a great guy and comes across genuine. He put our guests at ease and blended in really well. Although he is more expensive than some of his competitors, we are so pleased with the work he has done and would recommend him to anyone. He created such a good and relaxed atmosphere at our wedding which made our day perfect. The after service was very prompt and he sorted out any queries we had.

Our photos are beautiful which means that we made the right choice with our photographer ... you can't do it again if the photos are bad!

If the need arose we would definitely use Mike again.

Mike's relaxed personality made the day go well, without the "stuffed shirt" feeling normally associated with wedding photography.

Mike is a very likeable person, and the day was enhanced by his presence.

What a fantastic service; everything we hoped for and more. Mike was much more than "just a photographer" at our wedding. He added something special to the day, and was an absolute pleasure to work with.

Warmest wishes Karin and Dave

... you're a fantastic guy to work with, completely un-intrusive and as we wished, you took photo's of the day just as it progressed with some genuinely breathtaking and memorable results.

Many thanks Glenda and Adam

We just wanted to say what a wonderful light touch you had with our large wedding party resulting in incredible pictures that were captured rather than staged. You really allowed the day to flow and we only wish we had asked you to stay for the evening as well.

Best wishes Richard and Jayne

A very first rate professional service that I have used both professionally and personally. When it comes to perfect pictures, honest and well finished results, you really can get no better than Mike Browne Photography and Film. I am a returning customer of 12 years, using their different products from Weddings to personal photos and film. I shall continue to use them as they have to date, kept ahead of the new trends and art forms, and they have also been setting them, while delivering outstanding results. I would have no hesitation in recommending, (you have no choice if it's the best you want) Mike Browne is your only choice.

...We were so pleased to have you guys there. It was by far the best money we spent on the wedding. The video is SO
worth it!! It's such an amazing thing to have. It's the perfect compliment to Mike's photos, filling in all the extras and capturing all those words. We really appreciate the trouble you've obviously gone to, with all the cutting and different angles between cameras. You're a true pro!

Love from Lucy and Matt

Becky and myself wanted to write to you to thank you for the wonderful photos you took of our wedding day. To say we were a little overwhelmed with them is an understatement. They are all so natural and really did capture the spirit of the day. I know that I am the least photogenic person there is and yet I actually looked normal in the photos which really is a first. Your ease of character and your personality made all our guests very relaxed and this is so evident in the photos. There were a lot of people there that do not enjoy having their photos ( including myself ) taken and yet everyone praised you and actually enjoyed the photos. I suppose to be mentioned in the father of the bride's speech is quite an accolade but we really felt that you added to the atmosphere and really can't express how good you were. We would have no hesitation in recommending you and if you ever want to use us as a reference we would be delighted. We wish you all the luck for the future and will definitely be using your services for any further family occasions.

I just wanted to say how thrilled we were with the beautiful photos you took of our wedding. You really captured our big day perfectly - and James and I are so happy with them that we've had difficulty choosing! - Lucy

Yes, I agree with all the above! There were so many positive comments from the guests on how professional you were (a few strange looks as well - particularly when lying on the floor!!) Some great photos that we will always treasure. - James

Thank you so much for all your hard work that went into our wedding pictures and albums. Our pictures are brilliant and the album's even better. We are so pleased with everything you've done, we will definitely be recommending you to other people. Hopefully we'll see you again because you now feel like an old friend.

Love from Nicola and Steve

Thank you for helping to make the memories of our wedding day so special. Everyone agreed our photos are wonderful and Mike's enthusiasm on the day really brought out the best in everybody.

Thank you so much for photographs and video of our wedding (13th May at Careys Manor.) The photographs were all fantastic and look brilliant. The photos and video together are such a fantastic memory of the day - it is lovely to look back and remember the key moments and the people that were there. The messages from our guests are really nice to look back on. You fitted in so well and we had many compliments from our guests about how good and friendly you were. Mike's antics had many of our guests (including Susan's dad) in hysterics!

Thank you once again

Thank you! We love our wedding photos.

Dear Mike, Jayne and Sammy

We've recieved the photos. They're so beautiful! We love them all!

We would like to express our thanks to all of you for all the great works and services. It's a pleasure to work with you all and the photo shoot experience has made our trip more special...and unforgettable.

Thank you all again! Keep in touch

All the best for the future and take care

Thank you so much for capturing our day so perfectly - not only were the photos amazing but how they were taken on the day was fantastic too! We are not relishing having to choose between them all!!

Hi Jayne

The DVDs arrived last week. We put them on over the weekend and they are excellent! Great choice of music (soundtrack) too. It was lovely to re-live the day and pick up on the bits we missed / forgot. I didn't realise quite how drunk Big Davey (bagpiper) was, and so early in the evening!!! We're going over to Tracey's folks this weekend to show her grandma :-) Once again thank you very much for everything.

Best wishes

James & Tracey

Just a quick note to say thanks again for everything you did on our wedding day. We are so glad you had a great time - and we love the photos!!

We just want to let you know how much we appreciated your professionalism, humour and patience which you extended to everyone and everything on Tracy and Barry's wedding day - June 19th.

The service you provided was superb - not to mention all the wonderful photos.

All the best for the future

Thanks a million for being so great on Saturday, we really appreciated it. We arrive back on Tuesday 3rd August and can't wait to see the photos.

Thank you so much for making and capturing our wedding day. The photos are just fantastic and you managed to to get some of those magical shots that we hoped for.

All our love and best wishes

Clare and Jon Carlaw

We just wanted to write a few words of thanks for the excellent wedding photos! You really did capture the essence of the day.

You were brilliant, a real great guy to work with. Feedback tells us that you gained a real fan club that day! A true professional and we can't thank you enough for your efforts and most of all great spirit. Thank you for being you.

Returned from fantastic honeymoon in S. Africa and then Mauritius. Unfortunately now back at work and on call!

The wedding day was superb and we have had so many comments about how good you were on the day. In particular everyone felt that you mingled really well and presumed that you were one of the guests. In fact I have a good picture of you with some of my family!

Thanks for doing what you promised and making the whole photo process relaxing and actually quite enjoyable.

When shall we meet up? I`m afraid it might be the usual problem with our 'on calls' with limitations during week days. However, are there any particular evening or weekends that could be a possibility??

Thank you again for the photographs - they are brilliant! We've had lots of good feedback about you, thanks!

We just wanted to say a big thank you for being such a flippin brilliant bloke. You made the process of the wedding photography not only painless but very enjoyable. Our family and friends thought you were superb and we're really glad you stayed for the whole wedding.

...my mum will show the photos to a number of family members before they eventually are sent to us in Oz. Hopefully they'll arrive here soon as we're desperate to see them. We'll be in touch again no doubt but until then take care of yourself. It really was a very fortunate day for us when we came across your web site.

This is the official thank you for not just being our wedding photographer and for the fantastic pictures, but for also being a wonderful part of our wedding. From our first meeting we knew that you were perfect for the job.

Little did we know how much influence our meeting would have over our wedding. Once we started the Landmark work planning our wedding and being stress free and making the day what we wanted became a breeze. Although I don't recall specifically creating a possibility around it, I know that everyone was included in the feelings of love, joy and fun that we wanted for the day.

And having told everyone exactly the weather we wanted we got that too! So many people have said how great they thought you were and now they're seeing the results and are wowed by the photos too.

A huge thank-you for being great at our wedding and for helping to make the day relaxed and fun. The photographs are amazing the more I look at them. Thanks for helping us keep some special memories - that's a very special gift.

Firstly the photographs are fantastic and everyone who sees them remarks on how brilliant they are (and believe me a lot of people have seen them thanks to my lovely wife!)

You made it really easy for us on the day and I think that was mainly due to how comfortable you made everyone feel and how comfortable you seemed with them. I hope you found it nearly as much fun as we did.

Our wedding is being featured in a magazine that a friend of Abby works for so she was asking for your e-mail address and web site.

We would like to thank you for all you did at Stephanie & Justin's wedding. We know this sounds like a weird compliment, but we never really noticed you around, it was so nice being able to be relaxed all the time.

We know you were taking the official photographs, but we hope you enjoyed yourself too, you looked as though you did in some of the photos we took of you.

Once again, thank you very much for everything you did and we are looking forward very much to seeing the photographs.

Sharon and I wanted to drop you a quick note to say a big thank you for yesterday. We were thrilled with the shots which you took and very much look forward to seeing the end results! Everybody said how easy going you were and that with all that lying on the floor, you became a feature of the wedding itself!! Great stuff.

Just a quick note to thank you for the wonderful photos you took at our wedding. They have had many compliments. Eventually you will have lots of copy requests through the post.

Time has flown since the 5th June - I can't believe it's nearly September! I hope all is well with you.
