Testimonials

We are proud to have been voted a finalist in the 2010 Westcountry Wedding Awards. The awards are Devon and Cornwall’s most prestigious awards for client service excellence. The awards recognise those businesses which go the extra mile for their customers. Below are a collection of the comments our customers made;

“Great photographs and an absolute pleasure to deal with.  Simon and Alison are lovely folk, relaxed and fun to have around.  No doubting at all they were a massive part in what made it such a great day for us.  Recommended them to many other couples since our wedding and wouldn't hesitate to use them again.

Wedding photography 100% the way you'd hope it would be! C&N.”

“Picshore were an integral part of making our wedding day so special.  They met us before the wedding so everything was perfectly planned and arrived the night before the wedding to see the venues.  On the day the two photographers were fantastic at getting plenty of photos with the minimum of fuss, starting from early morning preparations until the last dance.  They set up a caption competition which provided great entertainment for guests and also videoed messages from guests;  these were on the doorstep after our honeymoon and really cheered us up following an early morning return to a cold UK!  The photographs they took are gorgeous - a beautiful range of colours and mixture of formal and informal photographs.  The albums are stunning; all have been delivered with impeccable service.”

“We were very, very pleased with our photographer from start to finish.  It was great to have a pre-wedding shoot which not only gave us time to meet the photographer but also for us to get use to being in front of the camera.  It was great that two people were taking pictures at all times as we were able to get different shots.  I would highly recommend picshore to anyone looking for a true professional look but to have fun at the same time.  I am very fussy and particular and I spent ages trying to find the right person.  I would say to anyone getting married that one of the most important parts of the wedding are the pictures and therefore they are worth every penny.  Every time we look at our pictures they do truly tell a story and we feel like we are there again.”

“Simon and Ali from Picshore Photography have given us a wedding album that way and above exceeded our expectations. Right from the start, they were professional and personal with their service, especially as they take you out for a pre wedding shoot - this is an extra special touch which really set us at ease. On the day, we barely knew they were there yet they captured absolutely everything! After the day, they presented the photography in an original way and produced an album for us of exceptional quality, I havent seen an album that rivals it yet.

I couldnt speak more highly of Picshore, they have put our memories in print to cherish forever.”

“Simon was quite simply wonderful! His attention to detail and noticeable concern that everything should be the way we wanted was outstanding. Simon was also very helpful during the planning stages. He went above and beyond the role of just the wedding photographer. I would (and have already! recommend Simon and Picshore photography to friends.”

“Our wedding photos were better than we could have ever imagined. They were imaginitive, creative and beautifully composed. Simon incorporated every last request from the pre-wedding shoot to the personalised first viewing of the photos. His team went above and beyond our expectations and many people commented on his unobtrusiveness and helpfulness on the day, particularly when working with the children.

We particularly love the DVD of the images which provide a memorable record of the day, and the package including the imaging rights has proven to be excellent value.

We whole-heartedly recommend him to everyone and look forward to finding an excuse to working with him in the future.”

“Simon and his photographers were fantastic through the whole of our wedding - planning, on the day and afterwards.  They did exactly as we wanted and the photographs were amazing, a wonderful reminder of our day.”

“Pichsore were absolutely faultless.  I would recommend them to anyone.  I was really impressed with how seamlessly they made the day work.  The photos were amazing.  The after service to see the photos and the album were also first class. So many of my friends waited twice as long to get there album.”

“Alison and Simon offer a truely professional service.  Throughout our wedding day we were not even aware of some of the fantastic pictures that they managed to obtain.  They are extremely personal, discrete and professional.  They were fantastic, made you feel at ease whilst still doing a fantastic job.  We would recommend their service to anyone.”

“Simon is an extremely friendly and relaxed photographer, who can take exceptionally good photos in a very efficient and low-key way.  Given the amount of time that the bride and groom spend with their photographer during the wedding, it made a huge difference to have someone who was so good-humoured  - everyone warmed to him!  He is also very good value for money - which many photographers in the South West certainly cannot claim!  Simon is willing to go the extra mile (or 10 metres...!) for the prefect shot - like stripping off to swimming trunks so he could take photos from the water while we paddled! We would not hesitate to use him again.”

“Fantastic service. Simon made us feel special and assisted with our many requests!! Would definitely recommend them to anyone! Extremely professional finished product that was great value for money!!”

“Picshore photography covered our wedding and provided a great service. The images produced will live with us for a life time. Simon has been great and interacted with the wedding party with great ease. Being the youngest son of our family we have had the pleasure of numerous wedding over recent years in which many photographers have been used, so it is with much pleasure to find that a common comment from many of our guests at our wedding was how polite, charming and funny Simon was and has led to many enquiry's of his details. Simon skills in photography are ones in which we hope use not only for aspect of our wedding but to provide a service to encapsulate our personnal growth as a family. I cant recommend him highly enough and we hope that you see fit to reward him. Thank you”

“We were really impressed with Simon's friendly and personal service and were delighted with our wedding photos.”

“Picshore were everything and more you could ask for from a wedding photographer.They were professional,friendly and accomadating from start to finish.They were very committed to our wedding giving us a sense of complete trust that we knew our photos would be stunnng.On the actual day,we or our guests ever felt pressurized or hurried to "get the photos done" Picshore's relaxed and professional approach helped us feel more comfortable in front of the camera and really made the photos what they were-AMAZING!You couldnt ask for better value for money,with a pre wedding shoot with our package and cards with the wedding photos details on for guests,I think many couples would be hard pushed to find anything better.If i were to get married again tomorrow,Picshore would be my no 1 choice!”

“Picshore photography were fabulous, Simon and his team are so friendly. It felt like family friends of old, alongside us.

With over 500 images, the choice for our album was immensely difficult, each photo capturing the magic of the day, forever to keep.

We are amazed each time we look through our album, Simon has managed to lock the sunshine, the joy, the love and warmth of our wedding day, into pictures on a page.

We would, and have, highly recommended Picshore to family and friends.”

“Picshore Photography gave us lots of options and ideas for when we planned our wedding. They were friendly and accomodating to our needs. The quality of our photos were amazing and they shall be forever precious memories to us! I have since recommended Picshore to friends who are getting married and they have booked Picshore. They offered the best package deal for our wedding and added that little extra touch with the engagement shoot and little photo cards at the reception.

With wedding photography being such a competitive market Picshore were still able to offer that personal touch and non-pushy approach to their work.

We wish them well as they enter the Westcountry Wedding awards!”

“We were delighted with the very personal service we received from Picshore.  We chose them because they offered us a pre-wedding photo shoot as part of the package, for us to get used to having our pictures taken as well as for us to discuss our needs and wishes for our special day.  We were able to have all our photos on CD for us to do what we wished with them as we didn't want to be limited and forced to choose only a certain amount.  They were very organised, making sure that the formal pictures didn't take too long and providing us with wonderful reportage pictures.”

“We met a few photographers and Simon stood out for all the above reasons.”

“Picshore were an excellent choice for our wedding from the day when we selected through to even now after our wedding they were constantly in contact with ourselves and ensured we received outstanding service and all our requirements were meet. Nothing was too much trouble and their friendly approachable manner where nothing was too much trouble was noticed by all our wedding guests. We received additional products from Picshore on receipt of our wedding album which we never expected which showed Picshore's personal touch. Picshore wedding photo's and end album are out of this world and many of our friends and family have all commented to say they have never seen anything like it before. We would highly recommend Picshore to anyone who is getting married. They made our day one to remember”

“Picshore Photography managed to far exceed our extremely high standards.  My wife and I gave Simon at Picshore only a couple of ideas on how we wished our photographs to appear and tell the story of our wedding day.  We were sure that we wanted our day to be as relaxed and informal as possible and this has somehow been captured in our glorious photos. Picshore captured the essence of our wedding day and EVERYONE has since commented how approachable Picshore were and how exceptional the photos turned out.  The epitome of our day is being able to look back at our wedding photographs and reliving our fabulous wedding day.  We Thank ourselves how incredible lucky we were to have Picshore recommended to us and for selecting Simon’s services - professionalism personified. Thank you”

“Simon and his colleagues at Picshore photography provided excellent service and fantastic images of our wedding. They were friendly and relaxed from the first pre-wedding meeting right through the big day and at the post-wedding viewing session. Their prices were very reasonable and they had a wide range of products on offer. On the wedding day Simon managed to capture a variety of images of both informal and 'off guard' type as well as the formal shots. We were very pleased with the results and our friends and family were also impressed with both his style on the day and the images he captured. We would recommend Picshore Photography to anyone planning to get married in the South West area and have already passed on their details to a number of our friends.”

“From the first time we contacted Simon at Picshore Photography it was professional with a very friendly and easing manner. All information and costs were clear. On the day Simon and his partner had an easy going manor which made them seem part of the guests rather than a service which allowed him to take those more intimate happy moments during the wedding which we feel always tells the true story of the big day. During the formal staged pictures the balance between friendliness but the firm hand to get everyone being and doing the correct thing was perfect. As well as having his own creative ideas for great shots he was open minded to the ideas of others and would use his skill to make their ideas work which made the guests and ourselves very happy.

All in all the perfect package.”

“Simon and the Picshore team were fantastic, he ensured we were comfortable in front of the camera with a pre wedding shoot and was extremely organised and passionate about getting the right shots on the day.

They were also very supportive when we had to move our wedding date.

The caption competition was a highlight of our wedding!!

A fantstic photographer we couldn't be happier with the pictures and the service!”

“Simon captured our wedding day perfectly. The high quality pictures encapsulate the fun we were having, yet his discrete positioning meant we hardly noticed he was there. His friendly nature put all our guests at ease and brought out the best smile from everyone. Every single photo I requested was taken and many more. He has an eye for detail that could make any setting look stunning. I love pouring over my wedding album.  The service was efficient and full of personal touches. Simon was keen to ensure that I felt at ease and enjoy my wedding day. As my one and only experience of being a bride, I would highly recommend Simon's photography service to others. In fact my sister is in the process of organising her wedding and ensuring it's a date that Simon can make, is very high on her list!”

“Picshore went above and beyond for our wedding, Simon was professional yet friendly in his manner and he made us feel that our wedding was just as important to him as it was for us. Picshore we felt offered that best service for the most reasonable price and the service they gave was impeccable. We have recommended them to all our friends, family and engaged couples. On our big day we got excellent feedback from our guests who were amazed at how incredible Picshore were, many of our guests commented that they did not realise their picture had been taken until we choose our wedding pictures. Picshore's service and communication was prompt and efficent and we are more than pleased with our wedding album.”

“Not the cheapest - but very reasonable and BY FAR the best!!!! Very friendly and easy to get on with people, pre-shoot session, free framed image from pre-shoot, home consultation, easy to communicate with, very bespoke service if required, lots of options available from album sizes, disc slideshow, will video ceremony/speeches/firstdane and put on a dvd, everything about whole service was stress free and a joy to organise with them! Would recommend to anyone!!”

“Simon produced amazing images of our wedding.  He was completely focused on what we wanted and how we wanted the images to look. He even took images of our dog as a surprise for Ian! Our album is stunning and we were given a free reign of what images we wanted whilst simon guided us on what would look best where. When looking for a photographer i was very impressed with Simons prices, i expected them to be a lot more. I wouldnt hesitate to recomend Picshore, Simon and his wife Alison are lovely people and are completely commited to making the day fantastic, we are even hoping to use them to get some photos of our daughter and her pony.”

“Absolutely superb photographer - would be my number one recommendation from the whole wedding.  They have provided us with perfect memories that we can cherish for the rest of our lives!”

“Simon and Allison were really friendly and professional and made us feel really comfortable having our photos taken. The quality of the photos was brilliant, so much so that it was difficult to select which ones to include in the album! I have no hesitation in recommending Picshore photography and intend to use them again to photograph my baby.”
