We had never met Carolyn before our ceremony, but she put us all instantly at ease. She has a cracking sense of humour and didn't mind us having an input into how and where our pictures were taken. Very reasonable and professional service. And most importantly the pictures are amazing-would definitely recommend!

We have been very pleased by Carolyn’s adaptable approach, especially as we used the babies 1st year photo shoot which spanned during the covid pandemic (following guidelines). Photos are perfect quality. We will be returning!!

We had a fantastic family beach photo shoot with Carolyn. We’re so grateful for her professionalism and patience and sense of humour! We’ve had lots of comments from other people about how lovely the photos are too! We have no hesitation recommending Carolyn. Thanks again!

Amazing pictures as always. But what we love most about Carolyn Oakley is how at ease and comfortable she makes everyone feel, never feel rushed, and she's always amazing with the kiddies. Cannot recommend enough. Thank you for so many beautiful pictures.

Carolyn and Pat took our wedding photos in June 2018 - they were incredible! My now-wife and I were both incredibly apprehensive going into the included engagement shoot, but the two of them were funny and kind, and really put us at our ease, and made us much more confident going into the big day. On the day, they were incredibly professional but also incredibly relaxed - we've been to weddings with pushy, in-your-face, photographers, and absolutely hated it. Carolyn and Pat however were unobtrusive, taking a huge amount of casual, fly-on-the-wall-esque photos, but also plenty of fantastic posed photos!

They managed to make us look good in at least some of them, so massive props to them! They were one of the highlights of an incredible day, and I would wholly recommend them to anyone who needs a wedding photographer. Thank you so much, Carolyn and Pat!

If anyone needs well organised and friendly photographers that cover anything then look no further than Images photography. Myself and my fiancee booked images over a year ago for our wedding later this year and we had a engagement shoot on the beach and these guys made us feel so relaxed and comfortable. They have a professional attitude and a fun nature whilst considering our needs and what we wanted. I am really glad that we have Images doing our wedding and would highly recommend them to anyone and would use them again for any future events

Carolyn and Pat are both absolutely wonderful people. I have used Carolyn as my family photographer for several years now, and I wouldn't go to anyone else. The studio feel is so relaxed and she is wonderful with my children. I honestly could not recommend Images Photography enough. x x x

For my 18th birthday, my parents bought me a modelling photoshoot package and I absolutely loved it! I thoroughly enjoyed being glammed up by Francine for my 1950's vintage photoshoot and Carolyn and Pat are both lovely and very welcoming. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a high quality and fun experience :
