| Rachel and Duncan - Wynyard Hall, May 2011 We got married last month and have just received the DVD of images and we are thrilled with them! Andrew and Ruth have been absolutely brilliant all the way through the planning process and were great on the day itself. We loved the fact that they were more than happy for us to suggest what types of photos we had in mind and also used their photographers-eye to take some truly beautiful shots that had never even crossed our minds taking a mixture of formal, posed and reportage-style shots. They are really lovely people who put us at our ease on what could have been quite a stressful day, made sure that the day wasn't all about spending hours taking photos and have left us with masses of gorgeous photos that capture the day perfectly - our only problem now is narrowing down the selection for our album as we are so spoilt for choice. A big thank you to you both! Shan and Hannah - 25th June 2011, Ramside Hall Wow what can we say, from the very beginning we knew that your photos were the best compared to others we had seen. You were always approachable, flexible and patient prior to the wedding and on the day. The photos are great and the online gallery makes it easy for us to show our guests the photos. We have already recommended your services to many of our friends and family. Kind regards, Shan and Hannah RosaNick and Vicky , Stockton Baptist Tabernacle and Darlington Marquee - May 2011 We recently used Ruth as our wedding photographer. She worked with little direction from us, and has captured the day brilliantly. Lots of incidental photos - colour, laughter and friends. That's what I remember from the day, and Ruth captured the moment for us. I was especially pleased that Ruth was happy to just work with us through the day, as we had no idea how it would pan out. We never felt hassled or posed. Thanks again, Ruth! Nick and Vicky. And Sue and Ken and Colin and Helen :) oh - and Ben and Adam! Jon and Micheka - Barley Hall, York - May 2011 We found Andrew Davies website and were impressed with the quality of the photos in his online galleries. We were even more impressed with how feasible his prices were. We live in Canada and had to organize everything with him via email, which was very easy with his in-depth checklist that he provided us. We showed up in York, England and hoped for the best. And we feel we got the best. The photos were beautiful. We had a general idea of what we wanted, and were impressed with his ability to think on his feet while we were walking around and find other beautiful shots we never would have thought of! We loved all the candid photographs he took that we had no idea about! While the groom and best man were being photographed, my maid of honour and I would be chatting and laughing... not even realizing he was photographing us every so often in between his shots of the guys! He walked through the reception area where people were milling about before dinner so unobtrusively that he was able to take so many wonderful candid shots without anyone feeling like they were being stalked by a photographer! He just blended in and truly captured the essence of the day! Turn around time was very fast, as well! The photos were ready before we even got back to Canada from our honeymoon! Would definitely recommend Andrew Davies as a wedding photographer! Chris and Paula , Grange Hotel Cumbria 2011 Andrew Davies was the photographer for our wedding at the Grange Hotel in March 2011. We initially chose him because his website was excellent, full of detail on the service provided and full of beautiful photos, as well as a highly competitive price. All of my dealings with Andrew before the wedding were conducted via email, and he provided us with a checklist so we could decide what we wanted him to take during the time he was at the wedding. He called the registrar so he could discuss what he was able to do during the service as there were some restrictions. On the wedding day Andrew was at the venue in plenty of time and looked around for the best places to capture the key moments of the day. He was very pleasant to talk to and focused on what he needed to do. After the service he took some photos of Paula and I, and the agreed group shots. Despite only having a short time to look round the venue he knew which were the best places to take the photos and was able to make everyone involved in the photos feel at their ease. He stayed longer than he needed to in order to capture some extra photos. The finished photos were put on his website for us to look at and then sent to us on a disc. They are fantastic photos which we will treasure forever. The photos of us and the family are excellent, and he was also able to get some good informal shots. What was particularly impressive was how he captured some of the small details to produce some very artistic shots. We would recommend Andrew and Ruth to anyone who is looking for photographers to capture a special occasion. Carol and Darren, Beamish Hall, April 2011 After searching high and low for a suitable photographer for our wedding we met with Andrew Davies and immediately knew he was the correct choice friendly, professional, cost effective and really understood our requirements. Andrew and Ruth were absolutely fantastic on the day, helping to organise the photos we had requested and then quietly milling round the guests taking informal shots which really captured the essence of our day. Ruth even stepped in and helped with an emergency with the bridesmaids dress!! The package we bought was fantastic value, 2 photographers for the whole day, album, online gallery, canvass print, a guest signed frame and a disc with all the photos set to music. A huge bonus was that none of the photos were copyrighted so anyone who wanted copies could have them at no extra cost. We cannot recommend Andrew and Ruth highly enough, if you are looking for a friendly, professional service then look no further! Gillian and Patrick , Gisborough Hall , January 2011 Many thanks Andrew and thank you once again for
capturing our wedding so beautifully. We have had so many
fantastic comments and can't recommend you highly enough.
We may be in touch for one of your wonderful landscape
prints when we finally get moved into our new house!
Kind regards, Gillian and Patrick Geraldine and Ben , Rushpool Hall , November 2010 Thank you so much for all you have done for me. I really appreciate getting the other album. Very grateful. I will definitely be recommending you to everyone I know. I have already had compliments about how my wedding pictures are the best they have seen!! Regards Geraldine :) x Geraldine Warrior Andrew and Lesley - Beamish Hall 2010 Hi Andrew You photographed our wedding in July at Beamish Hall. We chose you because of all the fantastic pictures on your website and we weren't disappointed! Having met with you and discussed what we wanted we felt really relaxed. You were both really friendly and took on board everything we said. On the day we hardly noticed you, as we asked for natural shots, and they were amazing. We were so pleased when the pictures were ready to view on our return from honeymoon. We were overwhelmed by the amount of photographs, and so pleased with the pictures themselves. They were better than we had ever imagined and it was so hard to narrow them down. The album we chose was gorgeous and Andrew and Ruth were more than happy to rearrange the photos on a number of occasions, when we couldn't make up our minds! We would highly recommend Andrew Davies Photography to anyone who is looking for wedding photographer. Thanks again Andy and Lesley James & Kimberley - Tall Trees Hotel 2010 Hi Andrew, This is the first chance I have had to say such a massive thank you for the album. It is absolutely stunning. That front cover, I had no idea it would have been that beautiful. It just tells the whole story of the day so well. Both sets of parents were overwhelmed by the pocket books. Also the suprise of the calendar was such a lovely suprise. We could not be happier with everything you have done for us. Could not improve on it at all. As for the day yourself and Ruth made us feel so relaxed, and that just allowed the whole day to flow just what we wanted, Thank you so much. Kayleigh Thomas - September 2010 , Doncaster. I searched on google for a photographer and when i came across Andrews site i wanted to book him straight away!! The style of his photography was exactly what i wanted for my wedding i loved every image i saw!!! I could have chosen a photographer that was a little closer to home as Andrew isnt classed as local to me, but i knew i wouldnt be as happy as what i am now with my photos if i chose someone else! Andrew and Ken are so friendly, Richard and i was really at ease which you can tell by looking at our photos how relaxed we was! We recieved our photos on dvd very very quickly after our wedding, nothing at all was too much trouble for Andrew he bent over backwards to make sure everything was exactly we wanted, Thankyou guys so much for capturing our very special day and giving us the best photo memories we could have dreamt of! x Gail
Linstead - may 2010 , Lumley Castle
, Andrew and Ruth really helped to make our day perfect.
They made both me and Pete so relaxed that our photos
were amazing. We got so many great shots to chose from
that it was difficult to decide which to put in our
album. We are delighted with our wedding photographs - so much so that it has been very hard to pick a small sample for the album. Thank you once again, Andrew, for capturing those special moments so beautifully. Laura and Christopher - Whitworth Hall - Feb 2010 The photographs taken are excellent quality and you have captured every magical moment from the day. Having two photographer's gave many more different angles of each part of the day. The variation of colour and black and white photographs was perfect. Each photography package is very reasonably priced, and having all photographs on a dvd slideshow has helped to make the memories more special and memorable. Thankyou again for helping to make our memories real. Laura and Christopher Geary see a sample of Laura and Chirstophers photos here Jayne

trawled the net to find a suitable photographer, we found
Andrew Davies website and loved the style of the gallery
