Claire, thank you so much. You were absolutely perfect on our wedding day and the photographs we got from you were wonderful. We have referred a few people to your web site to see our pictures and everybody thinks they are wonderful. The pictures captured the essence of the day perfectly. We are very grateful for all your hard work on the day. If you remember we were a little worried about whether you would be able to get good group photos which included our families. But we needn’t have worried you were able to get very good ones. Thank you very much for being part of our wedding day. You are one of the people who made the day memorable. We will definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a photographer in the future! Kofi & Molly Asanti, South London
Claire,Oh my goodness!!!! We absolutely love the album of our wedding day!
Thank you so much ... everybody we have shown thinks it's amazing. It
captures the day perfectly and is so unique and different. We would just
like to thank you again for all your hard work on the day; you were so
calm and organised that we hardly noticed you were there (in the nicest
possible way!) So many people commented on how good you were and that
continued after the day with all of your correspondence regarding the
photos and album. Please feel free to use this on your website. We will
definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a photographer in the
future!
Best wishes

Hi Claire,Just to let you know, Jo & Giorgio were very happy with the Canvas, So thank you again, you may even get more requests your way as the canvas is a lot better than others they have had done,T hanks again Stacey, xxxxx
It was
lovely to see you on Saturday and we are looking forward to seeing the
pics you took, especially of James!!
Anyway, as you can tell we are very, very happy with our album. As we
had only ever seen the traditional type of album before, ie mounted on
thick pages, this was a lovely modern change. We are really pleased
with the layouts, the effects you chose and especially some of the
double-spread pics with others layered on top. Brilliant! Already
quite a few family have had a look and all have complimented it, Steve
was really impressed too! The quality is of a really high standard and
we have all said that we would recommend you to anyone.
So thanks again, we may yet order some more single black and whites, as
may some family, so we'll be in touch soon,
Kind regards, Emma, Stuart and James x

Claire came highly recommended to us to take our wedding photographs. The initial meeting was really clear, very flexible and we felt at ease with Claire. On the day Claire was very organised but not overbearing which was brilliant and not the experience we've always had at our friends weddings! The photo's are amazing, a great mix of formal and informal and really captured the heart of our day! Many thanks and recommendations ! Jane & Mark - Edlesborough
Joey and I just want to say a big thank
you to Claire for being such a great photographer and taking some lovely
photographs. We were impressed by how relaxed Claire made us and our
guests feel, even in the rain! We now have some really beautiful
photographs to remember such as special day. Tanya &
Joseph, Hemel Hempstead
"Claire successfully captured every aspect of our special day treasuring our memories to photo. Our guests had commented on how good she was at organising everyone, (no mean feat!), and blending in with our guests to capture the more informal and natural shots that we would otherwise have missed. We have already recommended Claire and will continue to do so. A big thank you once again" Carolyn & Paul, Hemel Hempstead
Just wanted to say a big thank you for the album it is fantastic, you have done a wonderful job.Carolyn & Paul, Hemel Hempstead
Thank you the album is really beautiful! I have showed it to everyone at work and they were all amazed at how well it had been arranged. My boss said it was the nicest wedding album she had ever seen. I did laugh when I saw a picture of me in there as a baby on the beach but think this was my mistake as it got into the folder somehow, but anyway it was quite funny. I would have no hesitation in recommending your service. Melissa & Ian, Leverstock Green
Our wider family gathered for Christmas, all together from four continents for the first time in five years - grannies to grandchildren.
We wanted to capture the memory and in her warm and gentle way Claire helped us do just that! She found us a superb open venue and worked to get the best from our bunch. Claire's lovely open approach to her photography means that an otherwise difficult time flies past with great portraits as the result. Thank you Claire! Lynley Meyers, Hemel Hempstead
The photo memory book Claire has put together for me is really excellent, having looked through page by wonderful page, I had to text her to tell her how much Iappreciate what a brilliant achievement on Claire's part I think it is. I am genuinely chuffed to have it, It will be a treasured and much looked at collection of beautiful photo's, presented in an innovative and stunningly beautiful format. The whole is an attractive and captivating result. Already thinking of having Claire produce a further book for my "happy day" pictures. Graham Felgate, N. Herts
‘ We were delighted with the picture that Claire did for us as she was given a very poor snap with an awful background and managed to make it into a delightful picture that looked as if it had been taken in a beautiful garden. Nothing was too much trouble to try to find the best solution for us.’ Pam Moore, Hertfordshire
I was really pleased with the service
that I got from Claire. I was amazed that on the same day as emailing
photos of my dog to her, she came back to me with several good ideas.
She always replied promptly to my emails and was so friendly and
helpful. The finished portrait I ordered was a present for my brothers
birthday, he was thrilled with it, as was I. I will definitely be
ordering from Claire again.
Nichola, Manchester
Claire, we are over the moon with our paintings that we commissioned you to do. They have completely transformed the room and what we love about them is they look so different at different times of the day. I had a great time at my brithday and everyone commented on them and expressed an opinion on what they saw in the paintings. We can't thank you enough Claire, not only are you a lovely person but you have an amazing ability. Many thanks, The Ashtons, Hemel Hempstead
We would like to thank ArtbyClaire for providing a friendly, informal yet professional photography service for our wedding. She helped us stay relaxed and calm, yet managed to get all our friends and family portraits as we discussed. We have received many comments on how friendly and polite she was to our guests and think she has captured the Bay Tree Hotel and our day wonderfully. Trevor and Julie, Gloucestershire.
Thank you Claire for helping provide a special gift for my fathers 60th Birthday. They love the picture it sits pride of place on the lounge wall and the colours we chose go so well with their decoration. When they redecorate we might need to do another one!! Well it will be mothers 60th in the next couple of years - so I'll be back for another of your fabulous pictures. Andrew, Berkhamsted
Claire provides a fantastic personal service and really goes that little bit further to produce the quality photo you really wanted. She was very patient with our four children and created a wonderful surprise present for my wife" Chris Paice, Hemel Hempstead
“Thank you for my painting of Pepsi. You really bought my little dog back to life.” Doris Lee, Barnstaple, North Devon
“ Claire was really relaxed on our Wedding day and made people feel relaxed which meant that the photos were very natural.” Sue Clarke, Watford
“We knew of Claire’s work from her web site and decided to send her a picture that we had of our daughter and grandson that we really liked. We wanted Claire to blow it up and give us some ideas of different ways to do it. Claire got back to us very quickly with five different versions of the photo and what type of surface to put it on. We decided on one and took her recommendation of printing it on canvas. Claire did not have a lot of time to work with this order; we put her on the spot a bit as we were travelling from Australia through London for a few days and wanted to bring it home with us as a Christmas present for our daughter. I am happy to report that we picked it up as planned and were delighted with the outcome. It was a perfect job and our daughter is delighted with it. Claire is super efficient and very professional. We will definitely keep Claire in mind for any other art work we need in the future. I have not seen work of this quality here in Canberra.” Wendy & Jim Ryan , Australia
I was delighted with my oil painting, it arrived in a great condition and I am proud to have received numerous compliments from friends and family who've seen it and loved it. Ceris Stafford, London
I will definitely recommend Claire to anyone looking for the perfect gift with that 'personal touch'. I am so happy with the final picture and I was really pleased with the way we were able to change colours and backgrounds together to get the final piece I was looking for. Thank you very much indeed-its perfect! Lucy –Rickmansworth
'What a rare find to get such a lovely piece
of art work that doesn't cost the earth. It has brightened up my bedroom and I
love the sparkles. Thanks so much!' Monique Jessen, London
I was delighted with the commission Claire produced of my cat. It really captured
the essence of his character and her patience and knowledge of animals meant he
was at ease the whole time, producing an end result that all visitors comment
I was looking for something extra special for a 50th Birthday present and was not disappointed. This is a wonderful way to give a personal and unique gift that will be a talking point in any home. Claire did a wonderful job of capturing Giz, who is sadly no longer with us, on canvas with just a few photos and some words about her character. The entire process was simple, quick and Claire went out of her way to ensure that I was happy with the end result. I would thoroughly recommend Claire and her work to any prospective buyers.
Hilary Relf, Kings Langley
"Thank you Claire. Your photos are truly original for a present to someone special of just a treat to yourself! You took on the task of producing a picture of my cat (very camera shy) as a present from my husband last year. It was so fabulous that shortly afterwards, I decided to get one done of my horse, a little present to myself. You made the whole process of having these pictures done very exiting and stress free with your helpful attitude and sunny disposition. Well done Claire and Many thanks!! " Emma Stapley
