Steve & Jackie did our wedding at The Blue Baths on the 2nd of Feb this year. An absolutely amazing day! Jackie did an awesome job with the ceremony. Everyone was relaxed & full of laughter. Steve was just astonishing! So many people applauded their work after the wedding. Once we got the DVD and photos, we knew we chose the right photographer. Got a mate getting married soon, he said if anyone is the photographer, it's you Steve! You might recognize his name...Harry "The Bastard"?

Steve and jackie are such an amazing team, i highly recommend them to anyone wanting to get married, you will not be dissapointed. During the wedding we had numerous amounts of people commenting on the great job Jackie did during the ceremony, how down to earth she is and how she really made everyone feel apart of the Ceremony. And Steve well he made everyone feel relaxed about photos, get even the most stubborn face's to smile and went above and beyond to get great pictures in very high winds

WOW is all we can say - Jackie and Steve made our wedding so memorable. If you want the perfect day you need these two awesome people to be a part of it. They went above and beyond our expectations, the photos were fantastic and Steve just knew how to work everyone to get the best pics. I could go on forever but honestly I would highly recommend this duo to anyone considering a wedding you will certainly not find better. Our guests all said how great they both were, you won't be disappointed

We could not have been happier with Steve's help during our entire wedding day. His bubbly & energetic personality helped the whole process run smoothly. Not only was he the photographer, he helped get the bridesmaids dressed and fixed the brides hair at the end of the day. We have recieved our photos and we couldnt be happier! Thanks again Steve for making our special day even better. D & H

Dear Steve & Helen you are both fantastic - thank you so much from the bottom of our hears. Personally I am not a fan of having my photo taken as are many of our family members, but you two made it sooo much fun, you could not help but laugh loads, pose, play up to the camera and just enjoy having your photo's taken, I shall always remember your words of wisdom it's all about Hips, Tits and Lips. Hips back, tits out & pout - loved it - the photos are amazing - thanks again Dennis and Cathi x x

Jackie and Steve did the most amazing job for our wedding. With both of us being in different countries leading up to our big day they were amazing in helping to plan our ceremony from skype sessions to emails. With minimal time between us both arriving in NZ and the big day Jackie and Steve went out of their way to make everything relaxed and easy even throwing in a dance lesson for our first dance :) Thank you both for being a part of our special day. Nick and Andreea

Picking the celebrant and photographer were two of the most important decisions for us. We met with Steve and Jackie & they listened hard to everything we dreamed of for our big day & helped us create it. We couldn't have asked for better people to work with.The ceremony was beautiful thanks to Jackie who couldnt do enough for us, and we are thrilled with our photos! Steve captured the day perfectly. . All of our guests are raving about this amazing duo, and we really can't thank them enough !!!

Steve and Jackie were absolutely wonderful, creating a relaxing and fun filled atmosphere from the start of the day right through. The ceremony created by Jackie was tailored to us as a couple perfectly and steve was able to capture lots of special moment while making the wedding party and all the guests feel comfortable during the group photographs! As a camera shy person Steve was amazing at bringing me out of my shell! Thanks you both for helping to make our day wonderful! Fiona and Jon

Don't hesitate to book Jackie the celebrant and Steve as the photographer at your wedding. You won't be disappointed I can assure you of that. We had a wonderful day from start to finish and they were both amazing how they integrated with the guests and made everyone feel as though we had known them for ever. Well done Jackie and Steve a job well done.

We cannot thank Jackie enough for the amazing job she did as our celebrant! She makes you feel at ease and your guests are made to feel very welcome and apart of the celebration. We had already booked our photographer for the day, so we didn't experience his work but I am positive that he would be an amazing photographer. I have received numerous comments on the fantastic job she did and I will be recommending her to all. Thank you Jackie! Nathan and Lauren

A huge thank you to both Steve & Jackie. Jackie put our guests at ease and gave our ceremony a modern spark without loosing the ambiance of the moment. Steve with his charisma made it effortless for us to forget about the camera and enjoy our day. Fantastic photos and beautiful book arrived two weeks later We would highly recommend this delightful duo.

Jackie, we cannot thank you enough for making our ceremony so beautiful! Thank you for everything from providing everything we needed (signing table, pens, microphone etc), for involving our guests in the ceremony, for our rehearsal and for making us relax! We had so many nice comments about how amazing you are at what you do! We will recommend you to everyone :) Allan & Sam Burgess

What an amazing day, and brilliant photographer and celebrant. What a wedding combo! Everyone raved how awesome both of you were, and we totally agree. We can't thank you enough. Also, thank you SO much for teaching us our dance. We danced our first dance routine into the wee smalls and were the last to leave the reception... opps, but it was amazing. We are so pleased we had both of you with us on our special day, and can't imagine using anyone else. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!
