Hi Gavin

Hope you are keeping well and you had a good trip to the UK!

I wasn’t exactly sure when you would be back in CT this month so I waited until the end of the month to send you an email.

I would like to send you a HUGE thank you for our gorgeous photo’s of our very special day! I have to mention that not only have we got beautiful pictures that will bring us many happy memories for the rest of our lifetime, but we also have the wonderful memories of how you made our day just that extra bit special by being so organised and making each and every photo fun and special!

The pictures of Ethan giggling away at your Donald-Duck voice brought tears to my eyes! They are just spectacular!

I had a lot of great feedback from my family as to how much fun you made the group pictures and the table pictures in your very structured organised way, they were extremely impressed and many have asked for your details.

Again, thank you Gavin for making my day that extra bit special and for the best wedding gift ever... ‘My special memories captured so beautifully!’

Hi Gavin 

Hope you had a fantastic time overseas. Thank you for the most stunning wedding photos. We are so happy with them!

 Alexia and Brian

Hi Gavin and family! Thank you for our nice and wonderful photos and dvd. This is a great remember for a special day. You are very professional and you are a good taxi driver (we smile, it`s a joke). Thank `s to your son Matthew for the very good film. Best wishes... Georg & Irmgard

Hi Gavin, the album you made of Louisa and Cliff's wedding is absolutely wonderful - I've never seen one displayed in such an interesting and artistic way before. Everyone I've shown it to (the first of very many I can assure you) has been so impressed by the beauty of the photographs. Sue

Hi Gavin and Max Thank you very much for the wonderful photos you made for us! They are really great! Janine & Peter

Hi Gavin, I can’t thank you enough for your excellent service and assistance at the wedding. You took all the stress out of our day. I would recommend you to anyone getting married. You are not just a photographer you are a first class wedding coordinator. Without you, Justin and I would never had been so relaxed.

  With many many thanks

Dear Gavin, we are back in Dubai and thank you so much for shooting all this nice pictures of our wedding! Great JOB! Anh& Mike

Dear Gavin,
 Just a little note to say thank you (and Jolanda) so much for taking the photographs at our wedding.  We are so pleased with the end result. 
 Also, thank you so much for recommending Marc Wylie to do the videography, we are over the moon with the video he did of the day. 
 We are now back in the UK in the freezing cold, with snow falling outside.  If you are ever over in the UK, and in the Manchester area, give us a call and we can meet up for a drink to say thank you.
 All the best,
 Linda and Mike Pocock

Dear Marc and Yvonne,

Marc thank you so much for the superb job you did with our DVD, we love it, just amazing to be able to look back on everything!  Fantastic that you got some of the Marimba band playing and it was so special to hear the speeches and messages from the guests.  Thank you so much for the kind, calm and fun manner in which you supported us during the day, made a huge difference in keeping us relaxed and smiling!

Roydon & Karla

Dear Marc,
 
Mike and I just wanted to say a huge thank you for taking the time to do the videography for our wedding.  I can't tell you how impressed we are with what you have done, it is exactly what we wanted and more. 
I never specified at all what I wanted included in the video, but you managed to incorporate every little detail that seems so special and memorable to us now.  Thank you also, for taking the time to drop off the photos and DVD at the V&A, we really do appreciate all that you have done. 
If you are ever over in the UK and happen to be passing by Manchester, let us know so we can meet up and say thank you over a drink or two! 
Best wishes 
Linda and Mike Pocock
 

Thank you for capturing the spirit of our wedding. You made us all feel relaxed and you were so speedy in giving us our disc of pictures. It was difficult to choose our favorites and that was all thanks to you. Marcs dvd was also right on the money- it really reflected our personalities and it captured those special moments which we want to remember forever. I would recommend you to any of my friends. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

Thank you for taking the most amazing pictures. It was the most important day for us and the pictures came out better than we had hoped. Thank you so much. You really made the day enjoyable.

Lara & Jaco

Our wedding day was the most beautiful, relaxed and magical day of our lives. Thank you Gavin and team for making us feel so at ease and comfortable and an extra big thank you for bringing your magical lens which made me look absolutely stunning on the photos (still not sure what you did, but you brought out the best in both of us). Marriage is an institution that I will recommend to everyone, who knew it could be so special and so fulfilling and I would never have believed that you could love each other even more after the wedding.

Thank Gavin for our priceless memories.

Dear Gavin

 

I would like to thank you for the exceptional and professional way you photographed our wedding at the Range in Cape Town on the 24 March 2007. We were truly lucky to have come across one of the best photographers to capture our love the way you did.

The photo's are absolutely stunning and will be treasured forever.

Good Luck

Mark's photographic talents far exceeds many other reputable photographers.

My husband and I were awe - stricken at the quality and skill at which our photos were taken. We would like to wish him the best for the competition and know that he definitely deserves first prize!

 I chose Mark Engelbrecht as my wedding photographer, as I had seen him  at a friends weddings over the last 18 months and I was impressed with the way he operated. He was not overwhelming or pushy and he appeared to  have an amazing sense of calm about him, which I felt was important at an occasion like a wedding.
 If I had to choose again, I would definitely choose him. He made my  husband and I feel absolutely relaxed. He was great with group photographs, was extremely patient and appeared to keep his cool at all times.
> The photographs ¦ we couldn¦t have asked for anything better. Mark has good ideas, covered the ceremony and reception brilliantly and everyone who has seen my album has remarked absolutely stunning.

 Thank you Mark for having made our special day a lasting memory through your photography.

Mark really is an unbelievable photographer, we used him for our wedding, my sisters wedding and all our good friends have used him for their weddings and functions.

He is so patient and kind, nothing is ever too much for him. We were married in January this year and it really was a very special day, but we can honestly say that without Mark it really wouldn't have been the success that it was. Our wedding photo's are amazing, he really captured the perfect moments and made us feel extremely comfortable and at peace. He comes highly recommended!!

Thanking you 

Tiaan and Lauren Theron

Gavin has taken photos for The Chaeli Campaign at our most special occasions, starting with the launch of The Chaeli Campaign in October 2004. He captured some of our most treasured moments at our 1st Birthday Celebration Banquet and has supported the work that we do in so many ways. We are privileged to embrace Gavin Withers Photography as the official photographer of The Chaeli Campaign and look forward to a long relationship, with many shared golden moments!

Hi Gavin.

 Just wanted to say thanks for all your hard work and good advise. I have so many pictures that I have still not managed to look through them all. But what I have seen has been awesome. So, just a special thank you for capturing and immortalising our special day. We simply think that your energy, professionalism, innovative ideas and patience was, in a word, LEGENDARY!

Hi Gavin I thought you'd like to see these comments from a very good friend of mine who was at the wedding (in response to an email I sent her with this webpage): "Lau, those pics are so stunning. I really love black and white ones. Those you will treasure forever. I like the fact that they are natural. Just saw another friends pics and cant believe how posed the pictures look. Lots of love, Kath". Cheers Laura

Dear Gavin & Derrick A HUGE thank you for your wonderful photographs of our wedding! We did a lot of research into finding the right photographer for us and clearly the work paid dividends. Your professionalism was evident from the first time we met you: we were impressed that you took the time to meet us at our wedding venue and take some sample photos and even more so when we learned you had been back there to scout out the best places for the photo backdrops. The way you handled both families, bridesmaids and groomsmen on the day was impeccable and you managed to capture the mood of the day while still getting all the right people in the right photographs in limited time - no mean feat! The colour and composition of the photographs are stunning and we shall treasure them for years to come. The only difficulty we have is in deciding which of them to get framed! With all the best wishes for a fantastic 2007.

Hi Gavin. Thanks a million for being my photographer, drill sergeant, dress
maker (fixing of dress), driver and best of all my sanity. Your calmness
really rubbed off on me and I am thankful that I trusted my instinct when I
met you...
Pity you weren't my gardener, florist, my bouquet looks shabby... but your
professionalism and experience made it all worth while.
