Lara Jacques Photography

Lara is an amazing photographer and you will be sorry if you do not book her for your wedding! Lara did our wedding on the 14th March (one of the last before the crazy lockdown), and the photos are just stunning. Her down to earth manner, easy attitude and all-out caring personality made our engagement shoot and wedding day feel great, and us at ease. She stayed calm throughout the day and was very helpful (she helped with balloons in the morning!). She kept stating that it is our day and we need to enjoy it. She put us above her photos so she would only do the 'staged' photos when we felt ready. I had a great dress and she managed to capture its glory in all photos. As well as the usual photos she caught some amazing natural photos, including of everyone dancing. A fabulous photographer for your fabulous wedding day. Safe to say we loved having Lara as our wedding photographer!

Lara took the photographs at our wedding in December 2019 at the Baytree Hotel in Burford. During the initial meetings, Lara came across as warm, friendly and very enthusiastic and passionate about photography. We had no hesitation in booking her. During the period of time between booking and the actual day Lara kept in contact, confirming details and offering quiet confidence and reassurance. On the day of the wedding she was a dream and offered far more than a standard photographer would. During the girly preparations in the bridal suite she had a discreet presence whilst capturing some very emotional moments. She offered genuinely welcome advice before the ceremony. As the day progressed both Simon and I were really not aware of her presence yet she seemed to manage to be everywhere and the result has been a very large number of beautiful pictures. We asked that the majority should be informal, capturing the day, and that is exactly what we have got. There are tears, laughter and candid shots of our friends and family. The best part though was that many of our guests commented on how warm and friendly Lara was - almost like a guest with a camera. We could not have asked for more and would wholeheartedly recommend Lara to others. A very talented lady.
