To Diana,
We can’t thank you enough for the amazing photos you took on our wedding day, and the album you designed for us was AMAZING!!! Thank you so much! I will defiantly recommend you to anyone getting married! You could honestly charge double for what you do and I’m sure you would still get a great deal of business. You’re exceptionally talented and so fun to work with and it was an absolute pleasure having you as our photographer. I wish you all the best in the future and God bless.
Kind regards,

Hi Diana and Stuart,
Pete and I are now back into the swing of usual life after returning from an amazing honeymoon. I thought I would take the opportunity to say a big 'Thank You' to Stuart for being so wonderful to work with and for taking some of the most amazing wedding photo's for us and 'Thank You' to you Diana for organising everything and being so good to work with also.
Both Peter and I were really happy that you were only too happy to work with us in any way possible, we are really greatful for that. Most of all, we love our photo's, and the fact that Stuart's happy personality shone through, making it a very relaxed, easy day (for us). So many times I have heard of wedding photo's being choresome and unenjoyable, well this certainly wasnt the case for us, quite the opposite infact.
Once again, thank you guys, outstanding work and great people to work with. I would not hesitate to refer anyone to you.
By the way, we have had some wonderful feedback on the photo's from all our friends and family.
Kind regards

Hi Diana and Stuart,
Stuart and Diana, thank you so much for everything that you have done to contribute to making Geoff and my wedding day simply perfect!
From the minute we first spoke with both of you we were extremely confident that we had chosen classy, competent and professional photographers. Stuart was just so lovely, unobtrusive, funny and professional. He had an innate ability to put us all at ease and really ensured that the focus was on both of us throughout the day. Also, Stuart was incredibly efficient, and ensured the maximum use of the time available.
We had a truly wonderful day, and your part in it Stuart, was integral to that happening. I’d have no hesitation in recommending you to anyone.
Sincerely,
Cath Parker

Hi Diana,
I wanted to let you know we received our photos today and we are so happy with them - we can't thank you enough.
What a beautiful collection of our day, and I knew from all the work you did with us (and we found you very friendly as well as professional) they would be lovely. We are so happy we choose you as our photographer and would be only too happy to recommend your services.
Hope all is well with you and again thank you so much.
Cheers

To whom it may concern:
From the moment I first spoke to Diana I felt certain that she would be a great photographer. She is communicative, honest and above all, has a good sense of humour. My husband and I are over the moon with the images that Diana has sent us - they are certainly of a very high standard and worth every cent. My biggest problem now is trying to select the ones for our album - there's just so many great photos.
Thanks again Diana.

Jason and I would like to thank you for the fantastic service and the beautiful wedding photo book you created for us. We are thankful we didn’t attempt this ourselves as the end result was far beyond anything we could have produced. Even though it may have taken us ages to choose the 20 or so must have photo’s once we sent them to you it was simple to let you do the rest. Everyone has been very impressed with the results and we have been highly impressed by your attention to detail, service and fantastic attitude. We will definitely be recommending your services.
Thanks again Diana.
Angela and Jason
To Dearest Diana,
We are writing to you today to thank you for the amazing job you did as our photographer on our Wedding day. The photos that you took on the day were absolutely amazing, our family also agreed! You captured so many beautiful moments that we will treasure forever. Our only dilemma is that it is so hard to choose just a few photo's to frame as they are all beautiful.
Thank you once again for being part of our special day. All the best for the future.
Kindest Regards

This is a testimonial for the services of Diana Wakeham Photography.
I contacted Diana to arrange a photo shoot pre wedding and on the wedding day ( August 16th ) and from the first phone call I felt in good hands.
Diana arranged for Stuart to be our photographer. We could not be happier with Stuart’s professionalism and friendly nature putting us both at ease with the end result being great shots for us to remember our special day.
We highly recommend Diana Wakeham Photography.
Regards,
Gregg and Sarah Deakin.
Hi Di,
David & I would like to thank you for photographing our wedding. We thought you were great to work with and we also received a lot of comments from others on how well you worked with everyone throughout the evening.
Regards Gayle & David - 12/03/06
Hi Diana,
Just wanted to say thank you for the fantastic work you did in photographing our recent wedding at Mt Cotton.
The photos and the work you did in Photoshop was brilliant and we are very very happy with the presentation you did for us.
Thank you for adding so much to our special day.
Pam and Steve Copplin - 08/10/06
To whom it may concern.
I would like to recommend the services of Diana Wakeham to you, as she was our chosen photographer at our wedding on January 27th 2007.
We found her to be very warm and friendly from the outset, which put both myself and my now wife at ease. She had everything pretty much arranged before the day arrived, meaning that she was able to simply click away once the wedding itself began.
She was very professional in her approach and always made herself clear to understand and gave simple instructions – including a group shot of 70+ guests! She was an absolute pleasure to work with and the nicest compliment I could give would be that she allowed us to forget the camera was even there and to be just ‘natural.’
Of course we worried that we would have the right pictures we wanted, but when we received them on the discs from Diana, we were more than happy with the 349 pictures she sent to us, including some clever variations using colour and black & white.
Both my wife and I have no hesitation in referring Diana’s services to you, and you can email me leeheron22@hotmail.com if you wish to speak further on this.
Yours sincerely,
Mr & Mrs Lee Heron.
To Diana,
Thankyou for being with us to share our wedding day. The photo's are
great. The range of photo's and the quality of the shots were excellent.
Fantastic value for money and something we will cherish forever. With
your patience and understanding you made us feel so relaxed and it
shows. You did a wonderful job.
Many Thanks
Paul & Lauren 20/03/07
To whom it may concern.
With all the dramas that can surround your wedding, it was such a breeze having Diana as our photographer.
From our first phone call, Diana put us at ease and had so many great ideas for our special day.
She listened to suggestions we had and incorporated our ideas with hers to make the most spectacular wedding album.
We have had so many positive comments on the beautiful photos that she took on our day.
We had so much fun on our wedding day and we really have Diana to thank for that as we didn't want to be standing around for hours having boring "set shots"- the natural and fun shots she achieved on our day are in a word, perfect.
Diana is so enthusiastic and such a lovely person that we have no hesitation in recommending her to anyone who needs a professional photographer for any event.
Thank you once again Diana.

Hi Diana,
I hope you have been well.
I got the disk last week but didn't have a chance til now to view the photos.
They are amazing, thank you so much you were fantastic on the day and your work definitely reflects your skills.
I hope that we will cross paths in the future and I hope that I will be able to refer others to you.
Angela & David Byrne 06/05/07
Hi Diana
We received our Wedding Photos and you have done a most fabulous effort - thank you so very much. Woo Hoo.!!!
I have been to Harvey Norman who printed the whole lot for basically $60 which is a total bargain. I found a lovely hand-made photo album from a lady at Kingscliff who does tropical style albums and it holds 80 photos - which will be perfect!!!! Now we just have to decide which ones to place in there.
We will be getting a couple done onto Canvas - the two in particular - one outdoors in the natural light beside the tree is wonderful and the second favourite (amongst some close others) is with the fan (sepia colour) and the fan is a light pink colour and we are looking at each other - that will be nice for our bedroom.
Its a great idea with the CD option - I asked the IT guys at work to copy them for me so that's fabulous.
We are most delighted with the photos and your enthusiasm as our wedding photographer.
You worked with us so well and we are so grateful Diana.
Please keep in touch...we'd love to talk from time-to-time.
Bye for now, Pauline & Daryl Moir xoxoxo - 22/07/07
Hi Diana
I just wanted to say again.... Thankyou so much for capturing my wedding day so well.
All the photos are fantastic and my mum was so happy when we showed them to her.
You did a fantastic job and your professionalism definitely shows in the quality of your photos.
All the best and take care
Maree & Dean Turner - 25/07/07
Dear Diana
Thank you for providing us with beautiful memories of our wedding day on 14 October 2007.
Your friendly manner and calm approach were reassuring as was the obvious knowledge and confidence of what you were doing. We have been amazed to see some of the shots you took during the ceremony because we can honestly say that you were not at all intrusive – we can hardly recall seeing you taking these photos!
We are very happy with the quality of the shots and of the colour editing that you have done. We have loved the mix of posed and spontaneous shots. The freedom for us, in our own time, to select photos for enlargement and to include in the wedding photo book we have created electronically, was one of the reasons we felt you would be the photographer for us. We didn’t have the pressure of choosing shots and meeting someone else’s deadline. We have been able to take a leisurely and personal approach to selecting and arranging the beautiful array of shots that you presented us with.
Your ability also to develop rapport with the different groupings of people for photos was impressive and we sent all our guests one of the group photos along with the thank you cards. It is a lovely memento of the day.
We are also very appreciative of the time you took to come with us to the hospital to take photos with my father. These are in fact the last photos we have of him as he passed away in hospital on 13 December. We treasure these photos particularly now as they capture the happiness he shared with us on our wedding day.
Thank you once again for the care you took in capturing the precious moments of our wedding day.
Yours sincerely
Tony and Maureen
Hi Di,
The photos look absolutely fantastic! Thankyou for doing such a wonderful job, the shots really capture what a great day it was. Also, thanks for being so easy going on the day, everything flowed so smoothly and you helped calm my nerves before the ceremony.
All of our family and friends have commented on how good the photos look and the only problem Nick and I will have is picking out our favourite photos to have enlarged, they all look so great.
We will definitely recommend your services to everyone we know who is getting married because your work is truly outstanding.
Kind regards,
Jess and Nick Cross - 01/12/07
Hi Diana,
Thanks a lot for the great job on the photos. We were very happy with the pictures.
Some of the black and white with a dash of colour look fantastic. The pictures on the beach with the swirling sky were great.
Thank you,

Dear Diana,
The photos look fantastic, thank you for working on our wedding on the 16th!
All of my family and friends really enjoyed the day.
They all commented that you were very professional and managed the situation
really well! I am usually an organizer at an event, but I cannot
really do that on my wedding day, can I?? I worried so much in the
morning of the day as I thought we had not planned out everything and
let all guests know what is happening etc..We really appreciated
your flexibility, concentration and devotion to your work and how you
gave us all the choices and instructions on the day.
Thank you again.

To Whom it May Concern
My partner & I decided to elope to be married on the Gold Coast. Searching for quite awhile for a photographer I finally come across Diana’s forum and I new straight away I had found the perfect wedding photographer for us.
Diana’s contact with me up to the wedding was fantastic, she went out of her way to make my day special. All of my family and friends has commented on the photographs and the outstanding detail to her work in photoshop. I would highly recommend her as a photographer.

Hi Diana.
Thank you sooooooo much for the photos they were absolutely beautiful and without the hefty price that usually comes with wedding photography. Everyone who has seen them is very pleased. It was a pleasure working with you on our special day. It was great to have someone who was professional yet not at all pushy in the way things ran. You kept the ball rolling in a calm and collected way. We would recommend you in a flash to anyone who was having an up and coming wedding.
Kind regards
Daniel and Rebecca

Dear Diana,
We would like to say a huge thank you for the great job you have done with our wedding photos. It was great working with you on the day and we now have so many photos to choose from, putting together an album is proving to be quite difficult. The photos of my grandparents and the four generations of my mum’s side are beautiful. They are all beautiful.
Thank you so much again and we will be recommending your services to anyone that may need them.
Cheers

Hi Di,
We received the photo's yesterday of our Wedding on 2nd October 2008.
Words cannot express how brilliant a job you have done. The photo's are amazing.
As we live in Sydney it was quite a task organising a Wedding on the Gold Coast but you were able to assist us along the way. We found you very helpful and reassuring. On our Wedding day all our family and friends commented on how friendly, confident and professional you were.
The work you achieved in Photoshop is sensational. Thank you so much for providing us with such beautiful memories of our Wedding day. Every photo is a favourite that we will cherish forever.
Kind regards

Hi Di,
WOW!!! I can't believe how gorgeous all these photos turned out, we absolutely love them!!! Such a big big thank you !!!!
You captured every moment, the black and whites look great. We also love the ones that
you softened and how you brought the colour back into the flowers, leaving the image in black & white. Wow we can't get over how good they all are!
I cry every time I view them.
Thank you and I would be so happy to recommend you to anyone that has a wedding in the future!
Thanks again

Hi Diana,
Sorry we've been so slow to contact you since receiving the CD of our
wedding photos. We think they're lovely - you really managed to
capture everything, and we all looked natural and relaxed - exactly
what we wanted. The site you suggested made a beautiful backdrop.
Thank you very much, and please feel free to use the testimonial
below, or any of our images to market your services.
Take care, and all the best for the future!
Helen, John, Logan and Brandon O'Brien – March 2009
We are really happy with the beautiful images captured by Diana at our little beach wedding. From the beginning, Diana's service was personal, professional and attentive. Her interactions with our two small children on the day really impressed us, and we all look very natural and relaxed.
Dear Diana,
Thank you so much for being our photographer for our big day. We could not have been happier with you work and your professionalism.
You were wonderful on the day and we were so surprised with some of the shots that you got because we didn’t see you there half the time!
We were very happy with all of the photos we received and are still having a hard time choosing which ones to enlarge for our walls.
Thank you for your great work in the lead up to the wedding, the day it’s self and the communication after. Everyone who has seen our photos absolutely love them all as do we. I will be sure to recommend you to any friends and family who may require your services and can recommend your work to anybody who is even thinking of having you as their photographer.
Thank you again for capturing our memories that will last a life time.
Best regards From Kevin and Renee Houston (wedding 30th April 09)
Hi Diana,
Thank you so much for all of our beautiful wedding photos. We are in the process of putting an album together (it is very difficult because we have so many favourites!!). All of the photo's turned out fantastic and we are very pleased that our special day was captured in a very special way. Thank you for all of your help and suggestions on the day -you were a pleasure to work with!

Kye & Emma Mackie – 16th May 2009
Hi Diana,
Thank you very much for our wedding photos.
They are stunning we are both very happy with the pictures, the only problem we are having is picking which photos to print and frame as there are so many nice pictures to choose from.
Thank you once again.- Sam and Tony 6.6.09
Dear Diana,
We wanted to thank you so much for our wedding photos. We are absolutely delighted by them all and you have captured the mood & emotion of the day so well, we vividly relive each moment when we look at them. Even if the photos hadn't turned out we were just glad to have you there. You are so nice to be around and you were so helpful on the day that you added greatly to our great memories of the day.
We loved the efficient, friendly but so unobtrusive way you conducted yourself and went about doing your job that half the time we don't even recall getting photos taken, which is just how we had hoped a photographer would be on our wedding day. We always had a great feeling about you from when we first met and we were always at ease knowing that everything would work out fine thanks to your quick and efficient responses to emails & phone calls.
You have an obvious passion for what you do which shows not only in your photos but also your interest and exuberance in getting great shots on the day. We are also really happy with the mix of traditional, candid and fun photos you took and the fact that you were so approachable & flexible in listening to what we wanted.
All of our guests were really comfortable with you and quite a few commented "where did you find her". We have yet to extensively show the photos to our guests but the bridal party who have seen them so far are extremely impressed and of course they and us are impressed and thankful considering your reasonable fee.
Thank you again and we wish you much success for the future & look forward to being able to use you again sometime or at least stay in touch.
Regards
Michael & Heidi Noon - 8th August 2009
Hi Stuart,
You probably don’t remember us as I am sure you see lots of faces on lots of weekends but you shoot our wedding at the Hyatt Sanctuary Cove and Southport Yacht club a couple of weeks back and I really just wanted to send you an email with a big “THANKYOU” You certainly helped to make our day perfect and I can’t thank you enough. You were so professional and even made us laugh on more than a few occasions. You certainly knew what you were doing and was so punctual, and you even stayed longer than you were suppose too and for that I am sincerely sorry (true what that say, where does the day go) and friends of mine told me that they asked for your details as they loved the way that they could hardly tell you were even around. You did take some photos didn’t you Stuart ???? hehehehehe only kidding
Both Dan and I talk about how great you were and if we were ever going to get married again (not gonna happen) we would pick you to be our photographer without a doubt.
So the biggest ever Thankyou to you for helping making our special day the special day that it was and we will never forget you and we can’t wait to see the shots and frame them and stick them on the wall.
Hope you ate and enjoyed your cup cake (I know I did)
All the very best and I hope we meet again in the future.
Kindest Regards,
Mr & Mrs Toms (this is still fun) hehehehe
