Testimonials From My Clients

Pete was great!! We were lucky enough to win a competition at Christmas and at first I chose to have a studio shoot but last minute changed to an outdoor location and Pete didn’t have a problem at all. He captured lovely photos of our family and presented them beautifully in a slideshow for our zoom photo viewing. I’d highly recommend using Pete if you need a photographer. He was great with our eldest (2 years) and is super friendly and down to earth 😊

This was our second photoshoot and great as the first one. The pictures that Pete took were fantastic. He was really creative in the settings that he chose, and brilliant at getting our two boys involved. The result is a set of priceless memories.

We just had a photo shoot with Peter and we were delighted with the results. The whole experience was fun and Peter made us fill at ease as soon as we got to the studio. He greeted us all by name and even when our lovely luna the lab made a grand entrance he just let her do her thing and when we were all in position for our first photo she was suitably chilled to join in the whole experience. We would highly recommend Paredes photography the results are outstanding.

We arranged our photo shoot for Easter Sunday and were lucky enough to have one of the most beautiful days of the year to enjoy an outdoor photography experience in the Bluebell Woods. Our daughters, 6 and 3 had such an enjoyable experience. They had never met Peter before and it didn’t take them long at all before they were interacting, smiling and joking with Peter and ‘Monkey’ all around the woods. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent. Peter is extremely patient and this particularly showed when we couldn’t decide on which photos to have printed.... just over two hours of deciding - we finally agreed! We felt very comfortable in Peter’s company and would highly recommend Paredes Photograpy.

Having had a family photo shoot with Pete at Paredes Photography just recently, I must say I was extremely impressed! Pete made the whole process simple and smooth at every stage and made us feel at easy from the off! The photo shoot itself was great fun, full of laughter and smiles and he made it fully accessible to all involved in every way possible - whilst being very safe and Covid secure too! The viewing was done virtually and with our family bubble in two different location we were all able to share the pictures and pick our favourites with ease through a zoom meeting hosted by Pete! The photographs are absolutely stunning and Pete has done a great job at capturing all of our personalities and bring them together to create memories to last a life time - thank you so much! The next time we need to capture some memory making - what ever the occasion, Paredes Photography will unquestionably be called upon again!

We had a great experience having our photos taken our teenager actually had fun too. We love the pictures they are amazing. Highly recommend having a photo experience.

We hired Pete (all the way from NY) to capture our 25th anniversary (in the Cotswolds) with our adult children, and we couldn’t be happier with the results! He was so easy to communicate with, albeit with different time zones, as well as currency exchange. From start to finish, he made the experience so enjoyable and stress-free. Pete was professional, friendly, and incredibly talented at making everyone relax in front of the camera! The photos turned out absolutely stunning—perfectly capturing the love, laughter, and joy of the day. We’ll cherish these memories forever, thanks Pete for your amazing work & the quick turnaround. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a skilled photographer who truly cares about their clients and the moments they capture!!

I knew Pete was in for a hard time, 5 adults that don't like having their picture taken, and 1 toddler who is very shy and anxious in a new environment. He had my little boy laughing almost straight away. The shoot was a very relaxed environment and we all had such a laugh doing it. We had the viewing today and the pictures are amazing. We are all so relaxed and happy. I've adopted my little boy so the family pictures are extra special for our family. Pete has created very precious family memories.

My family and I were lucky enough to win a shoot with Pete, and all I can say is, it was incredible. We had a great experience at a beautiful local location. My 4 year old daughter felt instantly at ease, and found Pete so funny. Although my one year old son took a bit longer to warm up to the camera, Pete was so patient, and really worked hard to create us some wonderful memories and photos to treasure. All of the photos are amazing, and one even made me cry! (In a good way!) I couldn't recommend highly enough!

Absolutely amazing, I would not hesitate to recommend! Not only did Peter make my teenager children completely relax and really enjoy the whole experience, he got my Nephew, who is only 6 months old, smiling and giggling, so the end product was absolutely perfect. Peter thank you, I cannot put into words how happy we are with our photos.
