Past Couples' Comments

Our photographer was Claudine Hartzel who was recommended to us by our wedding planner Michelle. We decided to do nearly all of our ‘formal’ photos before leaving the hotel for the wedding reception as I didn’t want to spend the reception posing for photos.

This worked great and it felt good to know that part was done before heading off. Claudine did a great job capturing all the special moments and details on the day, with some of our favourite pictures taken on the old London bus between the venues. It was so nice to be able to look through them and remember everything.”

- Emma & Pete

We used Claudine Hartzel to photograph our wedding as we both really liked her style and had heard great things about her from family and friends! She was so easy to work with and helped put us at ease when we felt awkward in front of the camera!”

- Jasmin & Brett

We used the fabulous Claudine Hartzel! Following recommendations from Sam’s cousin who had Claudine photograph their wedding. Claudine was 100% the right choice for our wedding and captured everything perfectly. We have had so many comments on our photos.”

- Danni & Sam

The wonderfully talented Claudine Hartzel was our photographer. We absolutely clicked and felt so comfortable with her. From the second she joined me while I was getting ready, I had complete trust in her. She was with us in every room, throughout the entire day and was an absolute rock.
Claudine kept us informed of everything that was happening, gave us great instruction and helpful timings. We are very pleased with everything that she did for us and also with the photos. They came out perfectly and we are so happy!”

- Ashley & Adam

We had seen Claudine at a few events, but it wasn’t until we got engaged and noticed her right in there at every photo opportunity at a friend’s wedding that we knew we had to book her. We wanted natural shoots, as I wasn’t keen on all the traditional, posed ones, but we worked together, and now I have over 800 images to look through! I’m over the moon with them all!”

- Natalie & Paul

There was no choice at all of who to have . Claudine is incredible and also made it a lot easier for me to relax. She didn’t stop for the whole wedding weekend and was a total star who went beyond the call of duty!”

- Sara S

I had seen Claudine Hartzel at a wedding a couple of years earlier and I remember thinking how brilliant she was. Full of energy, enthusiasm and so happy. She’s a fantastic photographer so there was no doubt about booking her for our wedding. We had an engagement shoot a couple of months earlier which was really fun and helped us to relax a bit. Claudine captured the day perfectly and we couldn’t have been happier.”
