TESTIMONIALS FROM INDIVIDUAL PROFESSIONALS
“I put off doing a portrait shoot for ages as I was worried about not having the self confidence to be clear about what I wanted – and therefore ending up spending a lot of money but not really getting what I wanted/needed. Mim had the consumate skill of making me forget the point of the shoot – distracting me into having fun and then voila, she produced exactly what I wanted without me even realising we had done it. My favourite bit was climbing in trees and bushes to find just the right spot for good light.
I have recommended Mim to friends many times. I say: she will make you feel beautiful!”
Lizzie McHale
“Mim was a pleasure to work with. She was professional, thoughtful, and listened to what I wanted. I am very pleased with the results”
Alison Sutton-Davezac, Owner and Founder, Merindol B2B
“I found Mim to be creative, confident with her equipment and engaging, such that the pictures she takes have a way of getting the best out of her subject.”
Clive van Hilten
“The biggest reason I looked for a photographer for head shots is because I often (but not always) come out with a pasty colouring in amateur photographs. I also wanted my headshots to look natural – professional, but conveying my natural self, and not pretentious. You were able to make me feel comfortable, and I absolutely love these photos of me!
I think my favourite part of this shoot was my amazement at how many great shots you’d gotten, from angles I wouldn’t have ever thought to have someone shoot from. I couldn’t believe how good I looked. I would definitely recommend you to friends – and have! You’re a sensitive, creative photographer who catches real moments in the lives of real people.”
Elizabeth Bakalyar Friedman
“Mim was relaxing to work with. I felt no pressure of time and she was responsive to my suggestions about settings as well as offering her own ideas. I have had a lot of complimentary responses to the image I used straightaway on a website so what more can one ask?!”
Liz Rothschild, Westmill Woodland Burial Ground & Kicking the Bucket Festival
“Mim chose some fantastic locations for the photoshoot that resonated with what I was aiming for, as well as bringing her own interpretation. She advised me on what to wear and made me feel at ease during the shoot. It’s never easy to feel comfortable doing these type of photos but Mim’s friendliness and encouragement really helped. I’m thrilled with the photos and will be using them on my site and also the covers of my novels.”
J.F.Penn, author & blogger
“Mim worked patiently and responsively with me to get an author’s photo that was natural and friendly, yet professional.” Jackie Singer, author of ‘Birthrites’
“I needed some quality portrait slots for work and personal use – and Mim really did the trick! Although it decided to rain on the day, Mim was able to work flexibly with me and the light to produce some amazing results which I am really happy with- thanks Mim!”
Anon
“I was rather nervous at having some professional business portrait pictures taken – I don’t think I look good in photographs, and was quite nervous at how they’d turn out. However, Mim took the time to find out what sort of effect I wanted – casual, rather than overly formal – and we had an enjoyable hour at the Ashmolean (and a coffee!) whilst she took lots of pictures. I’m really pleased with the results, and so are my family. Seeing good pictures of myself have made me, personally, rather more confident, which is a double bonus!”
Sue D.
“These are the best photos that have been taken of my by far, since the one I showed you [from years ago]. I think you are extraordinarily skillfull and thank you so much for all your excellent work. It means the world to me not to be embarrassed by my photo. What a blessing.”
Dr DH, University of Oxford
“I REALLY hate having my photograph taken but Mim really put me at ease, was very helpful in her advice and produced some great professional shots in a one-hour shoot at my home. I would definitely recommend her services.”
Judith Keeling, Oxfordpeople
