Testimonials
Suzi (Bride)
When we met Chris we were both impressed with his passion for what he does. We decided to go with Louisa to do our photos and we were thrilled with her. I told her that I wanted her to take over and she did with clear instructions and a real sense of fun combined with professionalism. She controlled the group shots well and got everyone involved and having fun. The pictures made us all smile and were very styly and just what I wanted. We decided to have the pictures taken before the ceremony, which Chris pushed as an option, and what a fantastic decision – we got so much more time with our guests. What really sealed the deal for me though was the after sales service when dealing with Talia and Kelly at the office. They have been brilliant. I’m really pleased we went with Dillons’ and would highly recommend the entire team!
Nick (Groom)
Chris and the team at Dillon Photography, were fantastic.
From our first meeting through to our album design consultation with Talia we could not have asked for more. Talia spent a lot of time with us going through the album design and options for each page, she is amazing and has to be the most patient person I may have ever met!!
We can’t wait to receive our album as it is a true reflection of our amazing day, capturing all of the special moments throughout the day. Chris is a truly talented photographer and the only hard part is trying to choose favorites to frame, there are simply too many favorites!
Hana Kuni Church (Bride)
Chris Dillon is an Amazing Photographer and an all round great guy. From the moment we meet with Chris at his studio we were blown away by the beautiful work he does. Chris had some great ideas for our big day and we could see how passionate he was about his work so booked him right away!
On the day, Chris was brilliant. He had us, our bridal party and guests in stitches from start to finish. Every detail and magical moment was captured and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. The images are stunning we couldn’t be happier. We also had the little black photo booth which was great addition and a lot of fun for our guests. We would highly recommend Dillon Photography.
Sarah Parton (Bride)
Trying to organise a wedding in NZ from the UK could have been quite tricky. However from the first Skype with Chris we knew we had made the right decision.
The service Chris provided totally
exceeded our expectations – it was perfect, we could not have asked for a better day.
The images were absolutely breathtaking
truly magical – everyone has commented on how wonderful and authentic the photographs are.
Chris’ professionalism and sense of humour also made our day all that more enjoyable, it was like having Jack Black at the wedding! Chris made us both feel very much at ease and made the day even more memorable.
Kate (Bride)
We had no hesitation in booking with Chris, he is so much fun, yet so professional at the same time. He put us at ease right from the beginning. He provided great advice as well as great recommendations of other suppliers to use.
Unfortunately our wedding day was wet but that was no problem for Chris, he reassured us we’d still have a great day and we didn’t, we had a FANTASTIC DAY!
We met around midday at our special meeting point, which was incredibly special and was so neat to then spend the next 3 hours with my husband to be and our bridal party doing photos in various locations. The time went so fast and the results are incredible!
Chris has a way with people that is amazing, he is hilarious but serious at the same time and you can’t help but have a great time and a lot of laughs!
If there is one thing to spend money on for your wedding it is the photo’s that capture the moments, you will not regret booking with Dillon.
Thanks Chris x
Philip Nunn (Groom)
What can I say? Well, firstly Chris Dillon is not just a fantastic photographer, he’s also an Entertainer, Comic, Professional and downright great guy.
We live in London, UK so we only met Chris via email and Skype until the day before our wedding. However, from the first email, our choice was never in any doubt – if you want the best, then this is it.
Our photos are absolutely amazing – great imagery, great story, simply a fantastic record of a fabulous day.
Thank you Chris, and for those who are considering booking Chris
.consider no more, he s the best!
Annie Scott (Bride)
I would highly recommend Dillon photography to anyone who wants incredible photos! I am blown away by our wedding photos and the fun we had along the way with Chris and his team. Chris was awesome with the crowd- funny but professional. He put everyone at ease (including me!) and went the extra mile to make sure our day was perfect. Our photos are incredible- even better than what we imagined. Kelly has done a great job of designing our album and we feel satisfied that we made the best choice.
Louise Scott-Davidson (Bride)
From the very first meeting with Chris we new we were onto a good thing! He have us some great advice and recommendations which we really appreciated.
We had the most amazing day with Sharon and Aaron. They were absolutely fantastic! Doug and I cannot stop singing their praises!!! They were so easy to work with and were so patient! I am so excited about seeing the photos!
We truly had the best fun doing all the photos! It was one of our favourite parts of the day, we really enjoyed our private moment together at the beginning and then sharing a couple of hours together before the ceremony was really special.
So, thank you all again, all the advice we have been given from everyone there at Dillon has been amazing!
We really can’t wait to see the photos!!!
Shane Cotton (Groom)
We choose Chris because we thought he had the right personality to take control on the day, and get the best shots possible. And so it proved, when pressed by having an outdoor ceremony, and the threat of impending rain, he took over and showed superb crowd management skills to get some great family and group photos done before the heavens opened (and still managing to get a load of laughs along the way). He quite simply, made our day, and was great personality and presence to have around. I can’t wait to see the full prints. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.
Melissa Moore (Bride)
Dillon Photography blew us away!
We had the most magical day with our photographers. They made us feel so relaxed and had us all laughing constantly which made for very fun photos. They were so detailed and it really showed in every one of our photos.
I couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend ‘Dillon’ to everyone!
Thanks for an amazing day.
Joanna (Bride)
Our photos were amazing. We went with a cheaper ‘Simply Photos’ package, but the quality was still amazing, we just got 250 photos instead of like 500, but that’s fine as we’re having enough trouble as it is choosing which ones we want to put up on the wall!! Best money we spend on the entire wedding! Even if it cost a bit extra to get them down to Hamilton. Seriously get in an early as you can, because these guys are THE BEST!
Gemma (Bride)
Our photos are A M A Z I N G! We are just absolutely thrilled to bits and can’t stop looking at them, it was like re-living the day all over again. Chris’s hilarious sense of humour and easy going manner completely relaxed us on the day and we had so much fun shooting photos with him. Chris truly went above and beyond especially having a wet towel on hand to wipe my sandy feet!
I’m so glad we chose to do pre-wedding photos, it was so magical seeing each other for the first time – Chris created such a special moment which we will remember forever.
Chris you are a legend!
Patrick Malley (Groom)
Chris was an excellent photographer and really helped to make our wedding a perfect day.
We got Chris to choose all the sites for our wedding party photos and he really got some awesome backdrops and some photos that I will treasure forever.
I would recommend Chris to anyone who is looking to have a wedding in the near future.
Vicki (Bride)
Chris made the day so much fun and carefree. Even the boys were impressed!
He has such a relaxed attitude and nothing can go wrong. Its what a Bride needs on her day. To make sure there are no Bridezilla moments!!
Totally recommend him and the photo booth!!!
Lauren Cressy (Bride)
Simply said – we can not recommend Chris highly enough.
Chris is not only an AMAZING photographer (photos came out so beautifully that our reception venue are using them in their new wedding brochure!)… he also made our day super fun, and totally stress free (from showing us how to pin dad’s flower on, to making sure we arrive at our reception on time.
He also added special touches like giving my dad a few minutes alone with his little girl? to wish me luck etc on my wedding day something that was really special and wouldn’t have happened in the rush of the day without Chris setting it up.
Chris was dedicated to getting the perfect shot right till the end of the evening – and it really shows in all our gorgeous photos.
We couldn’t be happier
Laura(Bridal Party)
Chris was absolutely fantastic. He made us all feel so comfortable and we couldn’t stop laughing throughout the day. Having the photos taken was so much fun!
James Anderson (Groom)
The weather was terrible but Chris arrived early at the girl’s house to ease Emma’s fears about how the day would go. He then proceeded to take photos throughout the day in such a fun and non-intrusive way that stood out to us, our bridal party, and the guests at the wedding. He also got us a sample of photos back within a couple of days so we could beat the facebook rush from our friends, awesome!
He went that extra mile on several occasions e.g. lying on a wet road many times just to secure the perfect shot! He made everyone laugh throughout the day and even during the group photos where it is usually like herding wild cats.
I would recommend Chris to anyone, and friends have already asked about him so much from the wedding.
Kelly (Bride)
It has nearly been one year since our wedding and still we look at our beautiful wedding photos and relive our special day and all of the amazing memories which were created by Chris Dillon. Our wedding album is somewhat ridiculously big (twice the size you initially pay for) but every cent spent on extra pages was well worth it – we will never have any regrets about not including everything we wanted.
Chris was fantastic on the day, ensuring that the guys (who don’t normally like having their photo taken) were totally at ease – they look so cool and relaxed and actually enjoyed the whole photo shoot. The whole bridal party enjoyed the location shoot as it was filled with lots of laughs and time for chilling out with some champagne.
We were all for photos before the actual ceremony and I would recommend this to everyone as it takes the whole edge of things – I was so relaxed by the time the ceremony time arrived and I couldn’t wait to walk down the aisle, no nerves at all!!
We highly recommend Chris and the team at Dillon Photography.
Alicia (Bride)
Chris Dillon is the most amazing photographer!
He has the ability to have everybody at ease and relaxed in front of the camera. He even managed to keep difficult family members separated whilst entertaining all generations of our families.
Both of our families have been raving about him, how funny he was, how professional he was and how he managed to set up shots and control “the paparazzi” aka our family members who wanted the photo too.
Besides all of that his photos are insanely beautiful, creative and full of life. He really knows how to capture each moment and capture each individual’s character and beauty.
Now I just need to find a reason to use him again! Unfortunately I don’t want to trash my dress but I’m sure I can think of something – thank you Chris!
Mikel Oliver (Groom)
Chris has a wicked sense of humour which instantly clicked with us. He has a way of making you feel relaxed, and taking the pictures so fast without the need to pose for long periods.
He takes on board what we both want, then shows you what you could only secretly dream about.
If you’re looking for a photographer thats 100% professional, relaxed, fun to be with and with a magical attitude Chris Dillon is the only way to go!
