A Few Kind Words

I would like to sincerely thank you, Roz and the Master Garry for my beautiful photos. Everyday I look at them they make me smile. It truly is a special  gift Garry has to look through a lens and create  inspiration in others hearts. I will fondly remember the wonderful time I had at my session, and how you all made me feel at ease. As the years pass the photos will create a warm glow in my own heart and the hearts of my family. Warm regards, Clare

 

  

"I just never would do something like this but am so glad that I have!"

Lauren came to us after seeing a friends portraits. She really wanted to do something for herself and was as most surprised by how much she loved the images.

I Had Actually the Guts to Go Through With It!

Dear Garry and Odelia

How can I EVER thank you – and my partner, Tony – for what you have done for me???????

Not only did you make a dream come through, but you made it in the most beautiful way possible.

The day I left your studio after the photo shoot, I felt like a queen. I HAD ACTUALLY HAD THE GUTS TO GO THROUGH WITH IT, and after about 3 incredible hours with Garry I left feeling on top of the world. You made me feel so relaxed, protected and calm, Garry – I knew I could trust you, and that made the very shy me feel ok even when completely naked in front of you. What an accomplishment J

I even knew that if NONE of the photos would be good, I wouldn´t mind – cause inside I had found the courage to go through with it. The next day Tony and I came to review the photos, and I think I spent the next 5 hours in tears – very HAPPY and surprised tears. And the one sentence that kept both running through my head and also coming out of my mouth was: I AM NOT UGLY!!!! I AM NOT UGLY!!!! Having Tony´s reactions to the photos really helped too, cause I was so unwilling at first to let him look at them with me as I simply thought so badly of myself. There was just no doubt to what he thought when seeing the photos – he LOVED them, AS DID I - and everyone else I have shown them too afterwards. I am framing the enlarged ones, and one will even be put up on a wall in my living room. Not bad for a woman who just 2 years ago thought of herself as the ugliest, most incompetent, worse person alive on this planet, huh!

Thank you for being there, thank you for being YOU, thank you for what you do – for how you make your clients feel.

It truly is a memory for life, and in my heart I will always be grateful for you letting me see the real me that everyone else have tried to tell me that they see.

Even I can now see I am not ugly!

With all my love, a heart full of gratefulness and eyes sparkling again –

18 Months Later and My Wife Still Thanks Me

Received this lovely email from Mark today. Last year Mark wanted to give his wife Ewa a really intimate gift for their anniversary, his main concern was capturing the more personal side of her that he sees, but in a way that she would be completely comfortable. She was anxious about the session as 99% of our clients are but when she arrived at the studio she quickly realised there was nothing to be concerned about and actually had a great time, as 100% of our clients do!

18 months ago my wife had a restless nights sleep & was out of bed around 0630hrs manifesting a feeling of apprehension. I had pre-booked her an anniversary gift at Sarre Photography.

Her session started at 0900 hrs & finished at 1300 hrs.

 

 I believed she would enjoyed being pampered while those surrounding her tended her every need in preparation for her photo shoot. I was not so sure observing her apprehension that morning & I questioned myself on my arrangements, after all anniversaries were to be fun & stress free.

She didn't know what to wear & gathered up many outfit including her wedding dress, she also threw in her favourite red dress & joke about her white Faux fur for a Marilyn Monroe look. I knew she was feeling a little better as she joked with nervous tension.

 

Looking back 18 mths ago to those moments we both realised it was an immensely fun filled 1/2 day. My wife on more than one occasion has thanked me for capturing those memorable moments in time & her portraits adorn our walls & are admired every day.

 

Thank you Sarre.

In case you haven't noticed - we love pregnancy portraits. It is such a unique time. Meeting parents whose lives are on the cusp of changing so dramatically and having the priviledge of sharing and capturing them in a beautiful way is exciting.

Hello Odelia
 
I wanted to drop you a line to thank you, Garry and Ros for making our Photography Session so beautiful, I apologise for my tears, I get them in my eyes every time I look at our beautiful photographs.
 
Each time I look at them I can't believe it is me and I feel like the beautiful woman both you, Garry and Steve say that I am, and am amazed at how sensational Steve and I both look, I remember why I fell in love with him every time I look at his photograph, my loving, caring and generous husband.

Thank you again.
 
Kind Regards

Our Eleventh Anniversary - How Special We Looked and Felt Together That Day

Adam and Sandra came to us as a referral from a mother/daughter session we completed late last year. Both are extremely photogenic so it was truly a pleasure for us that they had lovely personalities also to compliment this.

Happy Eleventh Anniversary Adam and Sandra, we hope you and your three children treasure and enjoy your portraits for many years to come.

Dear Garry and Odelia,

Thankyou for the wonderful experience we had on our eleventh wedding anniversary.  It will be one that we won’t forget.  It will be something we can share together and look back on in twenty, thirty, forty or more years time and ‘See’ how special we looked and felt together that day.  Thankyou for making us feel comfortable with your settings as it is never easy for a woman to pose in front of a stranger, but you made it easy and fun.  We are ecstatic with your work and the finished result that we are showing off proudly to our friends. 

Thanks

Adam & Sandra.

 

I Had a Great Time Doing it and the End Result is Amazing!

Scottish born, 34 year old Kerrie came to us having always wanted a "nice" photo of herself. "Nice" doesn't even begin to describe the finished portraits she now has hanging on her walls - here is just a sample.

      

"I absolutely love them all and my friends think they are fantastic, I had great time doing it and the end result was amazing." Kerrie
 


  
  

  

In My Eyes You Worked a Miracle

Another heart warming testimonial - we appreciate every single one of them - its what makes our work worthwhile......   

 

    

 

Dear Garry and Odelia

 

In the past couple of weeks I have felt on cloud nine after what was one of the most wondeful experiences of my life.  I had the best fun ever with you Garry during the shoot and then being blown away at the viewing with Odelia.  Today I proudly showed off your amazing work to colleagues. They could hardly believe it was me smiling back at them with mischeivous eyes!. I rendered the guys speechless, the girls inspired to take the plunge themselves!

 

Garry you are a God.. you have the most incredible gift and have given me the most incredible gift that I will cherish forever. I haven't even seen the frames shots yet!  In my eyes you worked a miracle, transforming this camera shy, average 40 yr old into an ultra feminine, ultra sexy beauty.  I can not thank you enough.

 

I will hold you in the highest regard always.  Everytime I look at my portraits, whether I'm in my 50s. 60s or older, I will think of you and remember what a fabulous time I had with you, including the dancing!!

 

 

love Samantha

Ade and Seenu Couple Portraits Perth

We met Ade in January of this year when she came in for a feminine portrait session on her own. A Doctor and mother Ade's kind and friendly demeanor make her a delight to be around. We were thrilled to have the opportunity to see her again and meet her partner Seenu. Ade and Seenu had some beautiful couple portraits as well as some of Seenu to add to Ade's lovely collection. They have recently moved into a new home together and Ade says the new ones are already hanging in the lounge room.

From Ade:

"We were pleased with all the potraits. They all are lovely & beautiful. We hung two of them in our lounge room. I really love to see Seenu's portraits, it showed him in different style."

 

 After an individual session with us many of you say you would like to come in again with your partners. What are you waiting for do it!! He will enjoy it more than he thinks!
