Frances Carlisle Photography

Frances is super friendly, supportive and quickly moulds to the likes and dislikes of the couple. She kept me calm and cool so that I could truly enjoy my day. The professionalism and effort made by Frances is far better than we have experienced elsewhere. The shots taken by Frances are amazing!!! She definitely has a talent here. I would go with Frances again in a heartbeat and highly recommend her to anyone. If you want amazing wedding photos then I would onboard Frances! Thank you for capturing our special day!!

We cannot thank you enough for capturing the wmotions and the happiness as shown on the front cover of this card. Your photography service has been wonderful . You have listened and been very patient with us on our wedding day. We appreciate it very much. We have recommended you to a friend. We also hope to work with you again in the future. Thanks for the memories.

We love Frances and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone preparing to get married! She really understood the relaxed, colourful vibe we were going for and was super friendly and easy to work with - exactly what you want on your wedding day. We are thrilled with our wedding photos which are even better than we hoped. Great service all round. Highly recommended.

We would not hesitate to recommend Frances! We were looking for a relaxed photographer who would keep us both calm on our informal wedding day and Frances was perfect! We met Frances for breakfast in the early days of wedding planning and booked her straight away – She is so easy going and we knew that she was exactly what we were looking for in a photographer! Frances not only took the time to visit our venues, but to get to know us and what we wanted. Not to mention that everyone commented on how great Frances (the cowgirl!) was on the day – she caught some amazing natural shots and we cannot stop looking at our stunning photo album! Thank you again Frances!

Great photographs of our wedding were top of our list when we started planning and Frances did a fabulous job capturing our day! We feel so lucky that she was our photographer - she supported us from first meeting to choosing our pictures for our album, was an absolute joy to have there on the day and produced the most beautiful images. We were worried about finding a photographer. We thought it would be a headache as my husband has a passion for photography coupled with exacting standards! He's also much more comfortable behind the lens than in front of it. I met Frances at a wedding fair and I thought her work was natural, fresh and beautiful, just what we were looking for. When we all met together in a pub to discuss our day, it was extremely relaxed and felt like we were catching up with an old friend. Having seen her work and met her in person together, we were confident she would do an excellent job and were excited to work with her. We had a nervous energy in the run up to our engagement shoot as we had never done anything like it before. We were really happy with the locations suggested by Frances and she helped us prepare for them by providing honest and helpful advice which we really valued. Throughout the shoot, we became increasingly relaxed posing together for the camera. Frances knows what she is looking for in a picture and will very gently encourage you to be yourself to get the best shots. We had such a fun time and it put our minds at rest for the main event. Frances was excellent and keeping in touch and was very prompt in sharing images with us. It was great having everything organised online so it was less paperwork to lose in the stack we were accruing! On the day, she was brilliant. She's very calm, relaxed and efficient. We had fun getting ready with her taking pictures and everyone felt completely at ease, she even helped me into my ridiculously high heels when everyone else was getting ready! We loved the variety and balance of shots she took - we had a shortlist of 'must haves' but our favourite shots are those little moments throughout the day which we didn't necessarily notice at the time! She blended in and captured some incredibly special moments. We also love the details Frances picked out from photographing my dress, shoes and flowers, to my husband's outfit and antique camera he was using. Our couple shots are intimate, creative and capture us both at our best. Frances sent us some sneak peak piccies while we were on honeymoon which was a wonderful surprise and were promptly shared with our parents. We thoroughly enjoyed going through all the images with Frances once we were back and found it hard to choose which to go in the album! We got there in the end, together, and we love the quality of the album and the memories it contains! All in all, it was the most stress-free part of our wedding and that is very much down to Frances' approach. She's a great communicator, very friendly and mindful of what you are looking for, and extremely talented. We'd choose her again in a heartbeat and would certainly recommend her services to our friends and family.

Relaxed and spontaneous are the best words to describe Frances’ work. From capturing those beautifully natural laughter shots to embracing all manner of colours found at a wedding, she’s the perfect photographer for any London couple who has a soft spot for the creative.
