Here are a few comments made by couples who have booked me previously. References and telephone numbers can be provided, upon request, so you can speak to real people who have used me... Which should give you peace of mind that I deliver all that I promise I can.
"From the first meeting with Gary to discuss our wedding he showed true professionalism and made it clear from the start that it was our day and he would do any combination photos that we requested.
During the preparation photos on the day of our wedding he made Helen feel at ease with his warm and relaxed manner. You never felt as though he was intruding, it felt like he was more a part of the bridal party! All the guests at the wedding couldn’t stop commenting on how polite and courteous he was
Gary really did capture the emotions of the day and when we look back at photos it brings back the feelings that we both experienced. On receiving our photo disc we found it difficult to choose which pictures to use for our album as each photo is as fantastic as the next.
Helen and I cannot thank you enough for making our day so special, and providing us with exceptional photos that we will treasure for the rest of our lives."
Richard & Helen.
"At Whirlowbrook Hall we have worked with Gary on several weddings that have taken place with us at the hall. On each occasion he has been an absolute pleasure to work alongside, our bride and grooms have commented on Gary's professional yet friendly nature, he instantly puts guests at ease and a smile on their face. We would highly recommend Gary for his beautiful photo's and genuine enthusiasm for his work!" - Whirlowbrook Hall, 2011
"On 16th October we got married at the consort hotel thurcroft rotherham. Gary was on hand from early morning and he was a true professional from the first picture to the last. Gary was on hand with great ideas and never flagged from the job in hand. He made the photos fun! We could never thank him enough for his hard work on the day and also the work put in with the discs etc after to make the pictures sparkle! I would recomend Gary for any wedding or party you have planned. Thank you Gary."
Ray & Tina
"From the moment Gary entered our home to discuss our wedding day we felt totally at ease with him and we knew straight away that he was the photographer for us.
Gary really knows his job and came up with ideas we would never have thought of for shots,and had a really good laugh with him on the day.
All our friends and family thought Gary was fantastic and all commented on him on the day.
Then came the difficult part Gary presented us with so many outstanding photos that it took us ages to choose the ones for our photobook,but the end result is more than we could have wished for.
For anyone looking for a photographer look no further and rest assured that Gary is the man for the job"
Mark & Vicky
"We awoke on our wedding day to find that the weather couldn’t have been worse:
wet and windy with dull grey skies. Despite this we had such a wonderful wedding and our day was fantastic from start to end. Gary played such a big part in this – we still had those all important photographs in the grounds outside with us stood on a tablecloth so as not to spoil our outfits in the mud. Gary must have spent hours getting these photos ready for us as when we received the final photos he had edited the tablecloth out. The photos are amazing, and you would never be able to tell how awful the weather really was.
Everyone has remarked on how wonderful Gary was during the day: thinking of novel poses and angles; creating such unique images; and responding to any on the spot requests. But Gary was also helpful in our planning stages, helping us to think beforehand about what we wanted from our photos and making sure we got exactly what we had specified. At every stage Gary went above and beyond what we ever could have expected.
So Gary, thanks for everything you did to help make our day so special and providing us with such lovely pictures to help us remember our day. We would happily recommend Gary to any couple requiring a photographer for their wedding!"
Donna & Andrew
"Like anyone, you always wonder how the photos are going to turn out, as you cannot re-live the day. Thanks to Gary and the fun atmosphere he created we have ended up with a fantastic album, CD and DVD bringing to life the fun that we actually had on the day :o)
Gary was extremely calm, patient and very thorough to our requirements that we had discussed earlier. After our initial meeting with Gary we knew that our photos were in safe hands, he even went above and beyond by helping the videographer ...
A number of our guests made very positive comments about how Gary worked through the day, which only goes to endorses his ability.
We would have no hesitation in STRONGLY recommending Gary to be YOUR Wedding Photographer, we would be more than happy to talk to anyone directly if you have any questions about Gary’s character and you can obtain our details via Gary."
Karene & Dave
"Like everyone who wants to make sure that their special day is not only a day to remember but a day to look back on with happy memories, you want the best. Well, Gary is the best! We are so glad that we picked him to be our photographer to capture those special moments that we can, in the following months and years to come, look back on and remember. Over the months leading up to our wedding we got to know Gary and he got to know us and our children we knew that he’d deliver, and deliver he did!
Gary was accommodating, flexible, good natured, unobtrusive and the kids loved him, but most of all he was prepared to go that extra mile to make sure that he gave us a truly wonderful set of photographs that we look back on and treasure.
We can’t recommend him highly enough, if you want to enjoy your day without worrying about what the photographer is up to, that he’s following your brief and that you can count on him to capture those really special, cherished moments.......... then Gary is the photographer for you.
Thank you Gary, you have been a star!!"
Jane & Trevor
"Steve and I are absolutely delighted with our Wedding Pictures and that is probably an understatement. Having previously had photo's taken by you, we knew the standards would be high, but you exceeded our expectations.
You're without a doubt a very talented and professional photographer to capture our Wedding Day in such a way that the pictures tell a story without the need for words.
We would strongly recommend you to anyone thinking of getting married and when they meet you, they will know why!
To everyone reading this; Gary has now become our 'official' Photographer, honestly we are not Royal, but we know we can trust Gary to capture our children and life as it unfolds, to create beautiful memories for years to come."
Jill & Steve
"Steve: Gary, thank you so much for the fantastic photos, we both loved them. Beck keeps coming back to your website and our book and keeps crying. We are making a list of the photos we are going to get. Thank you not just for the great photos, its all the other help that you gave us. From the planning and the confidence you gave me through the day. Having somebody round that knows what is going on before the ceremony certainly calmed me. You never made a fuss or felt pushy, you got the pictures without us noticing! The shots of the speeches are my particular favourites.
Beck: Including the music from our wedding ceremony and evening on the DVD was a touch of genius and a complete surprise! I love the fact that the whole day is there and things I've forgotten come flooding back to make me relive the moment when I look at your pictures. You were so discreet and all the guests commented on how approachable you were. I don't think you realised how much you put both of us at ease during the whole day. I'm really proud of the job you did for us and that we'll always have this to share with our family and friends. You caught precious things that I was too preoccupied to see and take in properly. Much more than a photographer, you were a tonic and very professional.
Both: There are a few weddings going on in the future, we have given them all your information and enthusiastically recommended you; and will continue to do so."
Becks & Steve
"We just want to send you our huge thanks and gratitude for all your hard work in capturing so many precious memories from our special day.
We were completely overwhelmed with the proofs and DVD that you sent through that we even cried, especially the DVD its simply amazing and far exceeded our expectations.
We knew you'd be good but honestly we were blown away.
There's so many fantastic shots that we still cant decide which to put into our album. We will certainly be recommending you to everyone we know.
The guests all liked you aswell and to be honest we didnt notice you taking the shots most of the time, it was so relaxed and natural which is exactly what we wanted :)
Thanks again and good luck for the future"
Angela & Carl
"Both myself and Dan were so impressed with Gary, we were so grateful we found him to be our wedding photographer.
Gary really captured how special our wedding day was and the photos really reflect that. He was happy to fit in with whatever style of pictures we wanted and was really flexible and helpful, coming up with suggestions when needed or just happy to go along with what we wanted. He really put all the guests at ease and so many of our guests commented afterwards how lovely they thought Gary was and now that everyone has seen our photos they are all amazed at how fantastic they are.
Gary really fitted in and it was like he was part of the family rather than our photographer - he even helped calm my nerves just before going into the church!
So a big THANK YOU Gary from both of us, we really appreciate everything you've done for us. And, also we would highly recommend if you need a photographer BOOK GARY HIBBERD!"
Sarah & Dan -11th September 2009
"Gary has got to be THE BEST photographer around. After our first meeting we felt as if Gary was more of a friend than our photographer, he has an amazingly warm character which instantly puts you at ease.
On the big day itself Gary completely excelled, he was both relaxed and flexible as well as persuasive and creative in his ability to capture the true essence of the day. The photo's were more than I could ever have wished for. Gary also created a DVD of all our photos put to music, it captures the extreme emotions of the day which bring back so many wonderful memories which, with Gary's expertise, we can relive over and over again. Nearly all of our guests commented on what a great guy Gary was which I took as a personal compliment.
Gary I know I have said this quite a few times already but I truly mean it, THANK YOU x"
Paul & Vickie - 1st August 2009
"Gary was one of the nicest guys we’ve ever met and was very professional and helpful in getting all the required photographs which Kay and I had envisioned. The end results were excellent and capture the fun and emotion of the day. The collage of formal and informal shots is fantastic and they are something we will treasure forever.” - James and Kay
"Just wanted to thank Gary for my fantastic pictures of La Musica. They really are lovely, thank you."
