During my career as a professional wedding photographer I have won many awards and recently captured two national 'Bride of the year' winners. I do get a thrill to be recognised by my peers in the industry but nothing gives me more of a warm fuzzy than to receive a card or email from clients with just a short note telling me they were absolutely thrilled with the images and service they have received from myself and my wonderful team at Dillon Photography.
Every wedding, without fail, we put our heart and soul into capturing your special day. Rain or shine, in freezing conditions or hot summer days you will never get anything but our best efforts and these little thank you's just add something extra to a job that we all love doing. We do not solicit comments and every single card or email can be viewed at the studio by prospective clients. Below is a small selection of recent Thank you's for myself and my wonderful team.

Chris Dillon

We just wanted to say thank you so much for your involvement in our wedding. Wow, what an amazing photographer you are, we love our photos! You captured the day so well and it is great to have such fantastic photos to match our memories of a very special day. Many of our family and friends have also commented on how great the photos are and how great you were at coordinating all our guests in order to get through the family/friend photos in such a timely manner.
The quality of the photos aside we are also most grateful for the expertise you brought to the day. From our initial meeting back in March, you were able to offer advise on every aspect of the wedding which was so helpful. Many of the services we used were at your recommendation and they were also wonderful.
On the day your knowledge of how the day would run and your ability to co-ordinate us all was invaluable, not to mention your ability to make the 'photo shoot' fun!!! We both had an absolutely amazing day and enjoyed having you be part of it. The service we have received from both you and Kelly has been fantastic and we would highly recommend Dillon / Simply Photos to anyone looking for an amazing photographer and quality service.
With many thanks Anthony and Nadine Skewes

We wanted to pass on quickly though a very HEARTFELT thank you for your OUTSTANDING work on Saturday. You were absolutely amazing and we are thrilled with what you did. The feedback we've had is fabulous and to your credit.

thank you and we'll talk properly soon,

Hi Chris,

We are thrilled with the wedding photos, especially some of the family expressions that you captured. You managed to get the "emotional Dad" shot and the "over-the-moon Grandma" shot.

Which really made it for me. - Best regards, Natasha

Dear Chris and the team at Dillon Photography,

Thank you so much for the wonderful job that you and your team have done of our wedding photos. The photos look stunning and we have had endless positive feedback about the job you did. We really appreciate all of the little tips you gave us leading up to the wedding and your easy going manner which made us feel relaxed on the big day.

Many Thanks,

Dear Chris,

We're so pleased we asked you to photograph our wedding – one of the best choices we made. Your infectious enthusiasm and good humour made our photographs fun and enjoyable. The results speak for themselves.

Kind Regards,

Becks & John

Thank you so much for everything you did on the 15th of March and also all your help and guidance leading up to the day and afterwards. We can't explain how grateful we are....

We wanted to say thanks very much for the work you did around our wedding!!! We're more than happy with the photos and have found it difficult to select only 80 for the album.

Thanks for you help

Cheers,

We have had great feedback from everyone one at the wedding about how fantastic and funny you were, it was great. Both Travis and I missed saying good bye to you and both wanted to pass on our thanks for such a fantastic job you did, corralling and cajoling our families.

We had the best day ever and were stoked to have such a hilarious photographer.

Dear Chris and Sharon,

Just to let you know that our album, etc arrived safe and sound and it is absolutely lovely!! Matt is away in Japan so I haven't been able to share it with him yet but I'm sure he will be equally as pleased. Yes, it did make me cry Sharon - especially the slideshow!!
Thanks very much once again to you all for capturing our day and helping to make those memories last.

Love Brigitte (and Matt)

I just wanted to send you a quick email to say that we were totally thrilled with Louisa who was wonderful on our wedding day.

We loved the fact that the weather didn't faze her and that she made such an effort to get great shots. I also love that she was excited about my dress and veil.

Please pass on our thanks to her.

Thank you so much for your help, I will see you at my sisters wedding in October (Smith & Peterson).

Shannon Wilson

I felt amazing on the day! Aaron & Kelly did the most outstanding job capturing our day – we are thrilled with all of the photos. - Semanie Cato

I just would like you to know that Louisa was amazing on our wedding day - she put us at ease (after 10 minutes of me bawling my eyes out - happy tears of course) and she was really fantastic to deal with (even convincing me to climb on rocks in heels!!).

She really fitted in with us perfectly on our big day! I can't praise her enough.

If you could please pass on my biggest thanks to her I would appreciate.

Thanks heaps and heaps

Jessie

AND FROM OTHERS IN THE INDUSTRY

Thank you Chris for being so thoughtful to me on the day....as well as being so thoughtful to everyone else:))....so often I get the feeling from some photographers who I haven't worked with before...."another pesky videographer"....but this wasn't the case with you, thanks!:))).....I do try to quietly go about my business and am aware of all that's happening around me.....and do try at all times to be considerate of everyone.....that way we are all smiling:))))

It really was great to have met you Chris and I hope to have the opportunity of working alongside you again in the not-too-distant.....until then.....

Warm wishes,

Robyn
