What Couples Say

Great reviews from real couples about Juliet Mckee Photography Surrey wedding Photographer

 

If like me, you always check out the reviews before making a purchase, then this page is for you.

 

Your wedding photography represents a large financial investment, but booking a photographer is not like purchasing any product, it's hiring a professional with their own personality and artistic eye, to document one of the most important days of your life. Their experience is important, as is their professionalism, and ability to manage all aspect of your photography with calm and capable reassurance. In short, the right photographer should enhance your wedding day, and provide you with a collection of images you will love and treasure.

 

I've been shooting weddings throughout Surrey and the South East for 15 years, and in that time I've been very fortunate to receive great feedback from my couples. Here's selection with the most recent first. I hope it gives you a good idea of how I like to work and how couples have found the experience of having me as their wedding photographer.

Highly ranked wedding photographers in England.

 

"We were absolutely delighted to have Juliet as our wedding photographer. She is a professional who immediately sees how to capture faces and moments in the best possible way, starting from the bridal preparation until the late evening. During all photoshoots Juliet made us feel at ease and genuinely loved throughout, which made the whole process natural and joyful.

Apart from being a confident, professional and creative photographer who knows how to play with lights and angles, Juliet also displayed leadership during the wedding, politely but firmly leading guests to next activities/group photos that she captured incredulously, which we are very grateful for.

When we received our portfolio we were pleasantly surprised to find all photos in the album so perfect that we didn’t need to delete any of them, we loved them all!

The fact the Juliet provided us with her favourite photos immediately after the wedding, was another pleasurable point so we were able to share them with family, friends and on social media!

Finally, Juliet is very personable and really lovely to work and communicate with from end to end.

We highly recommend Juliet as a true professional who will impress you beyond and above."

Lots of love,
Veronica & Robin

Silchester Farm wedding photographer review.


"While looking for a wedding photographer, we knew we wanted someone who would capture natural moments and make us feel relaxed. Friends of ours had Juliet to capture the photos at their wedding and they couldn’t recommend her enough. After contacting Juliet to gain more information, we were so impressed with her overall communication and knowledge. Throughout the whole process Juliet was clear with what we should expect and stuck with the timeline she gave us at the beginning. We had a zoom call to chat to Juliet which was great to go through what we felt was important to us on our wedding day but also listening to the advice from Juliet.


On the day, Juliet made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. We had so many compliments about her and she added to the fun of the day. At no point did Juliet make us feel that she was just there to do a job, she gave advice, showed support and seemed to have fun too. We felt so lucky to have her there on the day and felt no pressure at all.


The following day, Juliet shared a very large selection of highlights from the day which we thought was incredible especially so quickly. Looking at the photos she shared in the highlights we were over the moon and felt that she had captured everything we wanted- and that wasn’t even all of the photos! We loved seeing snippets from our wedding that Juliet posted on Instagram.


A few weeks later, Juliet contacted us to say our online album was ready and WOW! We were already in love with our photos but seeing them all was incredible and we loved reliving our day.

 

Juliet, thank you for everything. You were absolutely amazing, and have given us our dream wedding photos that captured our day and will give us memories for life."

"I am so glad we found Juliet to be our photographer for our wedding, we have been so impressed from the morning of the wedding through to receiving our wedding gallery.

 

Juliet has a warm, happy presence, blending in to our friends and family to take lots of candid shots of smiling, laughing faces throughout the day. The organising of the group shots was quick and we spent longer on the couple portraits, at my request, which I’m so glad we did as I have so many favourite photos to look back on now.


The service after the wedding has been seamless, it was so exciting the following day to receive a preview of a selection of photos and a summary of the day. The turnaround for the full gallery was also super quick and we’re so happy with the quality. The gallery is easy to navigate with pictures filed into sections.


I couldn’t rate Juliet highly enough, she is a fantastic photographer! I’ve had lots of comments from friends and family to say the same too.


Many thanks again,"

"We could not be happier that we chose Juliet to photograph our wedding!

The photos are stunning and perfectly capture the story and emotion of the day. She was fantastic with all of the guests throughout the day, keeping everyone moving for the group shots without rushing anyone, and then putting everyone at ease and allowing everyone to be completely natural in the photos at the restaurant. It was particularly amazing how she managed to weave through the crowd without getting in anyone's way and still find so many perfect candid photos of people having a good time!

Juliet also provides a fantastic service both before and after the day. She takes time to get to know you well in advance of the day, including who you are as people, how you want her to interact with guests, the style of photos you are looking for and what photos are most important to you. Once the day is wrapped up she provides a wonderful online service to access your photos, including a lovely little write up of the day that made us both smile so much when we read it.

We would both absolutely recommend Juliet to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding!"

"OH MY GOODNESS!!!

 

I could not envision a better day and working with you was the easiest thing. Both Anthony and I are very camera shy and didn’t feel an ounce of anxiety being in front of your lens. We are so grateful for you capturing these moments and thank you so much for providing this preview so quickly.

 

The photos are amazing, vibrant and beautiful. I am beyond pleased with how they look and how natural everyone appears in them. Thank you for capturing these timeless moments and being so easy to work with. My family, Anthony and I never felt uncomfortable or “staged” all thanks to you. We are so happy!!

"Hi Juliet,

 

Thank you so much for these. We are delighted with the photos which are beautiful and have brought back so many memories of small parts of the day that we might otherwise have forgotten. We have really enjoyed looking through the group photos and all the photos of our guests especially the ones of moments we missed during the wedding.

 

You were fantastic at putting us at ease even though neither of us usually love having our picture taken and although we might have been a bit nervous about the couple shots before, it was actually lovely to have a few quiet minutes to ourselves and we are so happy with the results. You were very helpful and professional on the day and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend you to anybody looking for a photographer. Thank you!

 

Best wishes"

"Dear Juliet,

 

How can we thank you for capturing the most special and perfect moments of our intimate civil ceremony!

 

Your demeanor and personality put us all at ease and you were an absolute joy to work with on our special day!

 

Thank you for your instructions and direction. Our portraits together in the rose garden are my favorites and were my favorite parts of the day!

 

We will always remember you as we think back to our ceremony!

With our most sincere thanks,"

Thank you so much."

Dear Juliet & Debbie,

 


Thank you so much for capturing one of the best days of our lives. We absolutely love our photographs that you took and you both are extremely talented.

 


You documented so many special moments which we have loved exploring since our wedding, and have brought to life so many of the amazing memories we have.

 


Thank you for making us and my/our family and friends feel so comfortable and for capturing so many of them. Everyone loved the blog you did for us and we can't believe how quickly you produced it.

 


Thank you so much again. We will be recommending you to all our friends and family.

 


Olivia & Alex

Juliet was recommended to us by a friend, and having had to make lots of changes to our original wedding plans due to Covid including changing photographer, this was quite a stressful time. Juliet put us at ease right away with a phone call to discuss our plans and stayed in contact throughout the planning process.


On the day when Juliet arrived, having never met her before I felt instantly relaxed in her company. Considering how busy the house was with bride and 5 bridesmaids getting ready I barely noticed Juliet was there but somehow, she managed to capture the most amazing shots before we had even left the house!

Following the ceremony, we had group shots which Juliet took very quickly leaving lots of time to have some fun with couple and bridesmaid shots.

As a couple, I wouldn't say we enjoy having our photos taken, but Juliet made us feel at ease and managed to capture the most beautiful relaxed and romantic shots - something I didn't think would be possible.

We are over the moon with our photographs and will truly treasure them as perfect memories from what was an amazing day.

Thank you for everything.

"Hi Juliet,

 

Now that we have received our wedding photos we just wanted to take the opportunity to say a massive thank you as we are absolutely thrilled with them!

 

The photos are simply wonderful and bring a smile to our faces every time we look at them. We can’t wait for the album, although we don’t know how on earth we will manage to choose the photos for it as they are all so lovely.

 

You were brilliant to work with throughout the entire process, from our engagement shoot at Kew, to the communication in the run up to the wedding and on the big day itself. We were also thrilled to get a preview of photos the day after the wedding it was great to be able to share them family and friends before we headed off on honeymoon and we didn’t realise just how unusual this was in the world of wedding photography!

 

We spent a lot of time researching photographers when we were planning our wedding as we knew that the memories that would be captured would be something we would treasure. Your joyful style of photography and the way you capture the light so beautifully was just what we were looking for.

 

We couldn’t be happier to have found you and would recommend you wholeheartedly.

 

With best wishes

“As two fairly camera-shy and awkward-looking people (by our own admission!) it was with a little trepidation that we started looking for a wedding photographer. We quickly knew what we didn’t want - we knew that overly filtered, oversaturated, very posed or curated photos wouldn’t work for us. I stumbled across Juliet on Instagram and immediately got the sense that the photos she took all let the weddings speak for themselves without any extra embellishment, which is exactly what we wanted.


On the day Juliet was the perfect, calming presence who quietly and unobtrusively captured every single moment - there is nothing missing! We still don’t quite understand how she does it - she is some kind of photography wizard as it looks like she was in multiple places at the same time.


We could not be more delighted with our photos. We especially love the photos of just the two of us which look so natural and we look so at ease - no mean feat! Juliet had the perfect balance of blending into the background at points but also grabbing us when she knew we’d get some good shots. I think my dad was rather impressed when Juliet seized the opportunity to get some lovely sun set photos outside which involved ushering a few of our guests back into the bar so we could get some quiet... and they’re among our favourite photos of the day!


I also hadn’t appreciated at the time how unusual and lovely it was to have a preview of 100+ photos 48 hours after the wedding - it meant the world to have them to pore over and share with everyone.


Thank you again Juliet for everything - we could not be happier.”

"OK well first of all, thank you SO much for all your hard work on the day and then producing these amazing images. The slideshow was such a lovely touch.

 

I can't tell you how happy we are, you've literally smashed it! Captured our day and given us such amazing shots that we will cherish forever. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!!!!

 

I couldn't recommend you highly enough, your work speaks for itself and all our friends and family have commented on how amazing the images are! MWAH!

Hi Juliet

 

I just wanted to take the time to send you a proper email to say THANK YOU.

 

I know we haven’t even received our full photographs yet, but the preview blog you did just blew us away. It was beyond my expectations of a “next day preview” the photographs are just stunning, and the blog was just lovely to read. It really made the day after the wedding special all over again!! And so lovely to relive it so quickly.

 

We cannot wait to see the full photographs, like I said before despite the weather the photographs you captured were beyond our expectations, and just summed us up perfectly we loved looking at them and are just so excited for more. Our friends and family also have been full of praise for your work, and can’t stop saying how beautiful the photos are.

 

You and Debbie were fabulous on the day, arriving early, dealing with the chaos and even helping me into my dress (sorry!) then getting drenched in the rain, you went above and beyond. You were amazing when the rain derailed the plans for outside photographs, and the results just show how lucky we were to pick you to capture our special day.

 

A million thank yous again, a wedding fay to remember and catered by the most amazing photography.

"I mean WOW just WOW you really have done exactly what I knew you would do and have taken the most amazing pictures and captured our day perfectly. Thank you SO very much - we cannot wait to see all of them but these will keep us sweet for now! You were the first supplier we booked for our wedding day back in 2016 before we even started planning the day and it was the best decision - you've given us perfect memories to be able to look back on for the rest of our lives………'

 

'THANK YOU! We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE our photographs! We've looked over them so many times over the last few days! We passed the link on to family and closest friends and everyone has said how stunning the photos are and what an amazing photographer you are (obviously we knew this!).

"Juliet,

 

Just a quick note to say a mahooosive thank you for photos of our wedding. We simply couldn’t be happier with the results and the little box that you delivered to us with the selection of printouts was a really thoughtful touch. Louise and I can’t wait to get some more printed and displayed around the home. Everyone that has seen them thus far has been lost for words. Somehow you have managed to make me look good so I’m eternally grateful to you.

 

I’m sure our paths with cross again in the future, and once we have some photos back from our Icelandic trip I’ll send them across so you can check them out.

Again, thank you soooo much, you’ve been legendry.

 

Regards

 

Graham & Louise"

 

"Simply Stunning Photographs!

 

We've been so amazed at how beautifully Juliet Captured our special day. Our families and guests have loved the photos and we've enjoyed the experience from day one.

 

Juliet took the time to get to know us and she was delightful to work with. We were completely at ease during the day and we loved all the candid shots of everyone thoroughly enjoying themselves.

 

Everything was packages up so beautifully and we are just so thankful and gratefull for Juliet's level of craft and care.

We would highly recommend Juliet in a hearbeat to any couple wanting their special day captured in a stunning qaulity and with a smile."

"Where do we begin! We had the best day of our lives on Saturday and we are living off the high! It was the most beautiful, emotional and fun (so fun) day and judging by the preview we think you’ve done a brilliant job bringing it all to life.

 

You were so professional, brilliant and patient with our guests (and us!). We couldn’t believe how discreet you were (the legends of you being a photo ninja are true!). You have the most fantastic eye – the preview pictures are so beautifully framed and look so natural, and that’s all thanks to your direction. We couldn’t be happier with the result.

 

We’d also like to reiterate what an absolute joy it was to spend time with you. It’s really no chore being dragged away from your reception for photos when you get to share such excellent (although probably terrible in the cold light of day – sorry) jokes with your photographer. You arrived a stranger and ended up feeling like a guest.

 

Thank you also for the beautiful write-up preceding the preview. It’s really special to see the day from someone else’s point of view and you really captured the key moments for us. We’re amazed you’ve managed to put together such an excellent photo summary of the day so quickly (we’re so grateful you spent your Sunday beavering away on this).

 

All our love,

 

Sarah and Ollie”

“Dear Juliet,

 

We wanted to write to you to say an enormous THANKS for the fabulous job you did on our wedding. One of the greatest things about having you in charge of our photos was knowing (aside from the gorgeous images you capture) how professional, efficient and super quick you are with communication and editing of images.

 

Luke really enjoyed meeting you at our engagement shoot and felt totally comfortable with you – this made a huge difference to the wedding day and I would SO recommend that future couples do this. We just laughed solidly throughout and it took the edge off the bizarre feeling of having our picture taken.

 

By the time it came to the wedding, we knew that you have a great sense of humour and made us feel at ease in our couples shots. The rest of the day, I had no idea we were being snapped as you were like a silent ninja!

 

All our love,

 

Carolanne & Luke"

“Juliet,

Needless to say we are absolutely delighted with the package you put together for us. The photos are beautiful and capture everything from the little details we spent so long making to the natural and spontaneous moments of the day – everything we were hoping for in our wedding photography. In fact we were speaking about the cost of the wedding the other day and both agreed that the money we spent on you was the best money we spent! Thank you also for all the other little bits you put together for us, we certainly weren’t expecting them as part of the package. The video was such a lovely way to see the story of the day before viewing the photos you took for us (!) and having some of the photos ready printed meant they could go straight into frames around the house! You really went above and beyond what we were expecting, on the day and afterwards, and thank you for capturing the day in such a beautiful way that will be an absolute joy to look back on for years to come.

 

Kind regards,

 

Hayley and Will “

 

Hi Juliet,

 

Wow! Thank you, the preview is just so stunning, we are in total awe! We can’t thank you enough for capturing our beautiful day.

 

I have to re-iterate to you once again how wonderfully easy it was to be in your company. I was at ease from the very beginning and you felt like a friend, thank you. You have made the whole process from our first meeting, right through to our wedding day so smooth, seamless and a total joy! Thank you!

 

We look forward to seeing all of your wonderful photos of our day, we know you will give us memories that will not only last forever, but that we will cherish forever!

 

When we were in the field, Zac and I were so focused on each other and the beauty of the sunny day that it didn’t even feel like we were having photos taken! You work in such a wonderful way and I so hope we have the honour of working with you again in the future.

 

An eternally thankful,

 

Jodie & Zac”
