I wanted to share this news with you as I’m SUPER chuffed!!
I was nomintated a few months back for The Wedding Industry Awards 2013, which is a massive achievement in itself and I was truly grateful. I was even more surprised to have some of my lovely couples vote so highly of me that I made it onto the Regional Shortlist for the Wedding Photography Award which was a massive surprise and honour!
Today I opened my inbox to receive even more amazing ne
ws…I am one of only four photographers to have made it to the overall shortlist for the Best Newcomer Award! *cue jumping up and down with glee*
The awards are in January and held at the awesome Bloomsbury Ballroom in London…and I’m SO excited!!
Also thought I’d share some of the comments I received from my SUPER DUPER clients, who also gave me an average score of 10 out of 10 in all the voting categories!
General Comments (in random order)
“Sophie is an excellent photographer. She understood what we wanted and needed and also suggested ideas and advised if ideas we had wouldn’t work. She was very unobtrusive and didn’t get in the way of us or our guests. We ended up with an amazing set of photos and would happily recommend her.”
“Not only did Sophie listen to everything we wanted for out photos, but she delivered on everything too. Through the torrential rain and bitter wind she remained focused, calm and collected. Anytime she saw opportunity for a shot she made sure she got it. She was a pleasure to work with!”
“Sophie is fantastic, we are over the moon with our photos. She is friendly, calm, organised – the ideal wedding guest – and manages to capture the most beautiful moments perfectly. If I had my wedding again the first thing I’d book would be Sophie as our photographer!”
Why They Booked (in random order)
“Sophie got in contact through twitter when I broadcast my need for a photographer. I *loved* her pictures and her price was competitive. We also booked her for a pre-wedding shoot and the pictures were so good their was no doubt in our minds to book her for the wedding.”
“Sophie was recommended by a friend and on meeting her it was obvious that she knew what she would be very professional and easy to work with”
“Sophie was recommended by a friend who had booked her to take photos of her new born baby. Sophie’s style is exactly what I was looking for, a mix of relaxed posed photos and beautiful informal moments. She did not disappoint and I ended up with exactly the kind of photos I wanted.”
I could never have achieved any of this without you lovely, lovely people, and I am SO grateful that I’m able to do a job I absolutely love to bits. xxxxx
Will keep you posted if I win! ;)
