All of that planning you've been doing? The lists, the scrapbooks, the long, boozy lunches with your bridesmaids/ushers/Moms/Dads/other half?
The day you drank champagne for breakfast, the day you danced for four hours straight after only four hours sleep the night before, the day your false eyelash got stuck to your new husbands nose mid-kiss, the day you realised way too late (halfway into the dress) that you needed the loo, the day you saw them at the end of the aisle and all of your worries melted away as you realised that this, this right here, was quite simply one of the happiest moments of your life.

Me and him moved back to these shores after a decade in Manhattan. That's where we met - in my first week, staking out a hotel looking for some baddies who were doing things they shouldn't have been doing. Me with my camera, him with his notepad and dictaphone (remember those?!)
We didn't see the bad guys, they probably walked past us twenty times as we sat in a cafe opposite the hotel, eating eggs benedict, laughing at each others bad jokes and planning my first night out in the Big Apple.

My wedding shots have featured in glossy mags, swanky blogs, humongous billboards and I've even been lucky enough to have the occasional rave reviews. If you have a butchers at my testimonials page you can check out the ones that aren't from my Mum. Now, in the interests of a full confessional, I also have to disclose at this point that I do have a past.
I offer full day wedding coverage which includes a pre-wedding consultation, all edited images on USB with full personal print permission, an online gallery with print ordering service and a couple of little surprise extras! My wedding couples spend on average from 1200 to 1800 which depends on the coverage they choose and the time of year.
You're about to drop me a line I see, which is awesome, tremendous and fandabidozi in equal measure. Before you do though, one thing to remember is that I'm a terrible, outrageous Nosey Parker and desperate to know all the tiny details about you and your wedding that'll help me make your photos spectacular and breathtaking and so on.

As most people know weddings are expensive and neither of us really like having photos taken of us however we wanted to capture the day in the right way. Within a few minutes of meeting Lisa it was clear that she appreciated what we wanted and was going to do everything she could to help us achieve it. She got to know us, spent time establishing what was important to us and on the day and despite the challenging weather conditions made it all an easy process that captured and didn't dominate the day, by the end we were both enjoying having our photos taken at Lisa's direction. We have only seen

Lisa was quite possibly the best decision we made about our wedding day, with a tight budget we were hesitant to part with cash for something that we didn't know the final outcome of, but, if I could go back in time I would choose Lisa over and over and over again.
Right from the word go she was calm, friendly, fun and really took on board exactly what we wanted to capture - even the ridiculous stuff. On the day Lisa was known to some of our guests as 'a ninja' several of our guests even questioned if we had a photographer at all because she was so professional and well hidden!

We placed a huge amount of importance on choosing our wedding photographer - it’s the one decision that lives with you long after the day is over, and I’m over the moon that we chose Lisa. The photos were perfect and really reflected our day - this wasn’t by chance, she spent time in the run up understanding the kind of vibe we were going for and totally nailed it. She is a wonderful, warm and very cool lady and on the day struck the perfect balance of blending in whilst being at the heart of the action. I love that our shots are just that right side of quirky and a true record of the best

We were married in Las Vegas on the cheap and for our UK reception, we really wanted some high quality photos as we only had a few basic ones at the chapel.
I heard about Lisa Carpenter after hearing a recommendation from a fellow bride who had chosen her to photograph her wedding. Those photos were featured in Rock n Roll Bride Magazine and they absolutely blew me away.
I emailed Lisa and she really understood what we wanted, As we were already married, we didn't need an engagement shoot so we didn't meet until the day of the Reception. That didn't bother me in the least as she was so good at

Lisa was absolutely amazing as our Wedding photographer, in fact she was the best and most important thing we spent our budget on! We hit it off the minute we met, and I could tell she totally “got” our wedding plans. Also our engagement shoot was amazing and really prepared us for the wedding pics. Because of Lisa’s amazing photos we were accepted for a feature in Rock n Roll Bride magazine which was such a buzz. SHE IS A STAR!!

Lisa was an absolutely fantastic photographer! The photos were one of the most important elements of the day for me and she nailed it! She had done a friends wedding and I saw the photos on FB and no other style stood out like hers. The first time we spoke on the phone I knew she would do a fab job, she made us feel so relaxed and was so much fun to have around on the morning and day of the wedding. When we got our photos back the exceeded expectations, we (and our guests) all loved them! Thanks Lisa!

Lisa has come to photograph our team of Osteopaths and Sports Therapists two years in a row now.
We're not her average client but Lisa got creative on the day of the shoot, and has produced really beautiful photos for us that capture our clinic's ethos.
We've used the images to make our first impression online more polished and professional, which has made our business more approachable to new customers.
She photographed our entire team, and made everyone feel very comfortable with having their picture taken.
I couldn't recommend Lisa highly enough!
