Testimonials

Don't just take our word for it!

  •  We are so delighted with the pictures that Jonathan took of us as individuals and as a family. They capture all the things that WE love about each other, so they are amazingly personal. Susie, our 5 year old, was behaving pretty appallingly that day, and Jonathan's photographs make her look like the dream model, leaning cooperatively over our shoulders. That is a skill and a half! Jonathan's photographs are a huge presence in our house and home. We love them!

  •  We have taken our wedding album everywhere over the Christmas holiday, and without exception the photographs recieved a rapturous reception. Phrase like "what a wonderful photographer Jonathan is " and " He has captured the atmosphere of the day superbly" were voiced more than once. We would both like to echo those sentiments and to thank you and your team for all your dedication to produce such beautiful photographs. We are absolutely delighted.

  •  "We had no idea that our family photoshoot would be so much fun! Jonathan has an amazing ability to make everyone feel relaxed; even my extremely shy daughter enjoyed the whole experience.
    Jonathan found fabulous natural light in the most unusual locations. One of the most stunning shots was taken with us balancing on logs in the door of the wood shed.
    We are all thrilled with the end results. Even the selection process was relaxing and enjoyable: Jonathan returned to our home and helped us select the very best shots. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble."

    Jane Brennan

  •  “Showstopping photographs that caught our boys’ personalities perfectly. We all enjoyed the fun of the shoot and the boys loved being the centre of attention." 

    Richard Crew

  •  “it was a tough ask of Jonathan to capture the essence of our young daughter who had sadly just been diagnosed with a life limiting illness. Despite the urgency and emotional pressures involved, we appreciated his sensitivity and calming style when attending our family get-together. Jonathan achieved our brief of capturing the essence of Florence by “seizing the moment” with his informal photographic style using natural light. We’ll treasure these photos of Florence forever. “

  •  "Jonathan's Pictures of our four children are absolutely stunning....they have a really special quality about them...." 

    Rosie and Dom Arkwright

  •  "I worked with Jonathan Phillips during a shoot for surfing, skateboarding and snowboarding lifestyle magazine Huck Huck Magazine. The shoot involved mixing with surfers and boxers and capturing their characters in the kind of environments that are alien to many people. Jonathan handled the task with aplomb, not only producing excellent studies of his subjects but getting on with them too. Not much more can be asked of a photographer."
