Reviews & testimonials of Manchester Cheshire area photographer

“I would like to thank Jonathan and Dianne for the wonderful portraits they took of our family. They were a delight to work with as they are true professionals and made us feel relaxed — which made for the best photos.

Jonathan’s enthusiasm and love of photography is contagious! They made it fun for us all. The only problem , too many great photos to choose from!

We truly enjoyed working with Simcock Photography and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of having their portraits taken.”

– Randall & Kim, Wilmslow

“Choosing the date, the venue and the dress was easy. Choosing a photographer who could capture all our memories and showcase them how we wanted, wasn’t so easy. Having both being married before we both knew we didn’t want a “traditional” wedding album, we both had one, and they sat in the loft collecting dust!

We only went to one Wedding Fayre, and that’s when we decided on the style of album, the Italian collection. All that was left to do was find someone who was as excited about our big day as we were. I e mailed a couple of photographers that I found on the internet. Jonathan & Dianne responded very quickly and an appointment was made for them to visit us in our home.

They gave us lots of ideas, which we loved. As they left that evening, we closed the front door and nodded to each other, our hunt for a photographer had ended. To make us feel at ease they came to our home to do a family portrait. The photos were great, we knew our wedding photos would be even better.

Jonathan & Dianne kept in touch with us throughout the build-up to our big day. When the day arrived, they were punctual and professional. They had visited the venue prior to our wedding so knew exactly where they wanted to position us. Their eye for detail was spot on (which shows in the album).

Thankfully we didn’t have to wait very long for the photos to appear on their web site. When we got the call I was at work so I insisted Mike phoned me so I could hear his reaction. He was over whelmed, he hates his photo taken, proof the camera does lie, they were perfect. Our difficult choice was deciding what would make it in the album. Again Jonathan & Dianne’s expertise guided us on our selection.

When the album was handed over it was like getting married all over again. Not sure who was more excited, Jonathan & Dianne or me & Mike! All girls want to feel like a princess on their wedding day, well I’m very lucky, not only did I feel like one but the album made me look like one. I hope Jonathan & Dianne are as proud of our album as we are – and no its not in the loft collecting dust, its the centerpiece on our coffee table. Thank you would never be enough.”

“We can genuinely say that from the moment we met you both and took part in our ‘test’ shots we came away comfortable in the knowledge that a very important aspect of our ‘big day’ would run smoothly and without a hitch. We were not to be disappointed
Your preparation beforehand and the imaginative execution of the shoot on our Wedding Day left us with a lasting memory that we will always be proud to show off to family and friends.
As an added bonus you are a very pleasant and patient partnership, expert in making your photographic subjects feel at ease with your professionalism and good humour.
We are more than happy to recommend you to anyone.”

– Mike and Julie, Manchester

“Jasper and I want to thank you so very much for the fantastic photographs! They exceeded all our expectations. You two are so good!

I must admit that I hadn’t appreciated beforehand what wedding photography entailed. Although you had explained to us on the previous day that the best photos come from taking time, I had no idea what this meant in practice. I had to get used to taking a bit of direction. But we are so glad you convinced us!! The photos are much more beautiful than we expected!

We’ve had much positive feedback from friends and colleagues and so many want a photograph and others have asked details for their own weddings. I hope you get lots of enquiries from them.

Dianne and Jon, thank you again. They are beautiful!”

– Jet & Jasper, The Hague Den Haag

“Everyone who has looked at our wedding photos has been very complementary. We are really pleased with them. Thank you again.”

Just a note to say how much we like the photographs, particularly the ones in the church. Many thanks for doing such a superb job.”

– Pat, Knutsford

“Thanks for all the effort you put into the wedding photographs, in particular the albums and covers thereto. Parvin’s parents really liked their album, and the framed picture of Parvin which is in their lounge.

Thanks again to you and Dianne”
