Testimonials From My Clients

Definitely recommend. Pete was brilliant. With 2 shy children and an 11 month old he definitely worked his magic. He brought the fun and led them out of their comfort zones and got the best out of a non walker. So professional and couldn't have asked for any better end results. The photos are beautiful! Highly recommended for families with young children! He brought the best out in them. Thank you so much Pete!!

Wow! Wow! And WOW! I reluctantly entered an autumnal photoshoot for the kids and was absolutely gobsmacked when we were selected. I felt really unsure and nervous about the shoot as its something neither of my boys had ever experienced. My oldest is reserved and shy and my youngest had just turned 1 and hadn't had much interaction with other people due to covid - so to say I was anxious was an understatement. I had kind of already decided it was going to be a nightmare. How wrong was i! As soon as Peter approached us, I felt at ease straight away. Peter was fantastic from the get go. He struck up a friendship with my oldest son Noah, immediately and I couldn't believe how confident Noah was within 5 minutes! It was like having a different child. Peter made it magical and fun the entire time! Milo, my youngest was a little bit more challenging but Peter was so patient and just took everything at Milo's pace. There was no pressure at all. It was natural, relaxed and so much FUN! The photos on our viewing date were just so amazing. Better than i could have ever imagined. I cant believe how beautiful my children are and i look at the pictures, with a huge smile and a very proud mum. They honestly just make us smile and beam so much. Peter has captured some beautiful memories and we cant thank him enough for doing so. He is such a genuine person and we hope we see him again very soon in the future. Noah still talks about Peter and Bob the monkey often and asks if we can see them again. We would highly recommend Peter to anyone, he really is a very talented man and absolutely fantastic at what he does. The overall experience is something i won't forget. Thank you SO much Peter!

We had a lovely family experience with Pete. I can't recommend him enough! He made the whole process, from booking to shooting and viewing, so easy and fun for us. I was a bit nervous, firstly because I don't really like to be photographed and then I had a 6 months old, who barely sits and gets tired or bored quickly. Also, we wanted an outdoor shooting and the weather wasn't very promising. But in the end it all turned out so well. The rain stopped for a while, my baby was all smiles and Pete took the most beautiful pictures of us. Pete also made the Zoom viewing appointment easy, although it was so hard to choose from all the wonderful images. When we received the pictures we couldn't stop looking at them. They are so much more than what we expected! Just love, love, love them! Thank you so much!

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.

Pete is lovely and I felt totally relaxed and confident in his proffessional ability. The images that he produced were superb! His relaxed informal style and natural ease with children was so comfortable that my young daughter was completely her normal self throughout. Pete captured all her lovely expressions and this is so special. The images are beautiful and striking and we can't stop looking at them. The wonderful use of natural light and surroundings too. I would highly recommend the whole exoerience it was so much fun and I look forward to scheduling another shoot. Sarah

Pete was so good! I couldn't recommend him highly enough. He dealt with 3 teenagers and a dog perfectly and I would definitely recommend him!

We had a wonderful photo experience for our children during half term. Within seconds the girls were at ease with Pete which made the experience fun and enjoyable for them and gave us some fantastic shots. Despite Covid restrictions our viewing appointment on Zoom was great and Pete guided us through the many many photos he had taken and enabled us to get down to the very best shots. We made numerous changes on the evening and revisited photos as many times as we needed and none of this was too much for him. All in all a superb experience!

My family and I won a half-term photoshoot with Pete. From the get-go, Pete was very personable, warm, professional and easy going- and still to this day, one of the only people to get our kids to smile full 1000 watts super natural smiles! The kids warmed to him instantly, and had so much fun. The photos he took are stunning- you can tell how much he loves his job!! We could not be happier with the finished product. Thank you Pete for the memories

We have recently taken part in the Autumn experience and we had great fun. Pete was so good with our little boy and captured his personality perfectly! We have recently purchased some of the pictured & Pete made the whole process so much easier and was so helpful. We will definitely be using Pete again and would recommend!

Paredes Photography is absolutely fantastic and we cannot praise Pete enough. I booked a family photo shoot for my Mum's 70th and Pete immediately put us at ease with his friendly approach and my 2 year old daughter absolutely loved him. He devotes both time and patience to get the best photographs for everyone and the end results were absolutely stunning. The whole experience from start to finish was excellent, professional and most importantly, personal. We would highly recommend Paredes photography and we will definitely be using Pete again in the future!
