Firstly I would like to thank Pete at paredes photography for choosing my little family runners up in a winning competition, we had an amazing day, I'm quite self conscious in front of the camera but Pete made us all at ease, and we just had so much fun, and many laughs. It was such a friendly atmosphere in the studio and my 6 month old loved her first photography shoot, Pete was brilliant with her getting his toys out especially the sqeeky monkey. We choose our photos last night, they're all amazing it's hard to choose from so many. I highly recommend Pete its a complete A++++++, cant wait to recieve our package Once again, thank you Pete 😊

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.

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!

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

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 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 😊

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!

If I could, I would give more than 5 stars, it was such a wonderful experience! Pete made us feel so relaxed at the studio, made my two girls laugh right away and from then on they just played whilst he took the most amazing photos. I felt very comfortable because of all the Covid safety measurement in place. Thank you so much again for everything!

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!
