Dear Derek We wanted to say a huge thank you for our beautiful wedding photographs. Our photographs are wonderful, you have captured our happiness on our special day just perfectly. Not only are the photographs of us both beautiful but all of the photographs of the guests are wonderful too, so natural and relaxed and you have managed to capture the happiness that we all felt on the day and of course the beautiful surroundings too. Everyone is just so delighted with them and we can not thank you enough. It was a pleasure to have you photograph our wedding and did not even realise that you had taken so many photographs so it really was a lovely surprise to have so many wonderful memories of our special day, and you delivered the photographs just as we came back from honeymoon too which was really great as we were both so excited to see them. Everyone has commented on what a lovely relaxed style you had which has resulted in the beautiful photogrpahs that we now have. Your service was immpeccable and highly recommended. Thank you so very much again for everything, we really were so delighted that you photographed our wedding and that you have given us both and all of our guests wonderful memories of our special day.

We have so many amazing pictures, we think you have caught every part of the day very successfully! We especially like the individual and informal shots you took of our guests, there are some lovely photographs there and most people didn't have a clue you were taking them. Also we are very impressed you had all the hundreds of photographs to us within the week. You will be highly recommended.

Re: Kilts & Kimonoes Wedding No wonder you are in so much demand Derek. Highly professional yet unobtrusive you produced quality photographs which so perfectly reflected the the happy atmosphere of the day and which will be treasured for a lifetime and more. And very reasonably priced, (you should put your fees up!) "Highly recommended" is an understatement. Thank you so much.

Derek we are so impressed by the beautiful photographs of our wedding. They really capture the mood of the day as well as the beautiful surroundings. Everyone commented on your discrete style, we felt very relaxed it was as if you were another of our guests. Both the formal groups and informal photographs are of exceptional quality and have given much pleasure to everyone who saw and received them. Derek, you really captured how special the day was for us. The photographs taken by the loch are absolutey stunning, exactly what we hoped for. Despite the weather, too bright midday sun(how can we complain about sun in Scotland!)you worked round this to take photographs that we will really treasure. Thank you for your easy going nature and ability to get lovely photographs of everyone, even those who normally hate having their picture taken. I can thoroughly recomend you as your professionalism, adaptable style and ability is second to none. Thank you for a truly beautiful record of the best day of our lives.

Where do I begin? Words do not really do justice to how fantastic myself and my husband thought that Derek was. He has immortalised our day in such a special way, his photos are amazing, he was amazing. All our guests commented on how fab Derek was and his professialism was top notch. We have so many beautiful photo's and thank him so much. We married in July 06 and by the time we came back from honeymoon Derek had sent all our photos to us - such a great thing to do. We both new we had to have Derek even before we met him, he is in a league of his own. Derek - thank you so much for making our day so special and catching all those special moments for us, we hope you enjoyed yourself at our wedding. Lots of Love James and Lucy Tucker (Aug 06)

Derek, we are extremely impressed with the quality of the photographs you took. You were very flexible with our needs and timeline and made things so easy for us on our wedding day. You captured some great candid shots as well as poses and made everyone feel completely at ease. (Some wish to import you to the US!) I received many compliments for your work and professionalism on the day of the wedding and am getting rave reviews with the prints now. Both the digital and film photographs are of a very high quality and we appreciate you handing them over to us. The shots at the castle are so beautiful, you may want to consider putting them on your web site as well as the castles! Thanks again... and if we get married again, we will come back to you or fly you out to the States!!! Teri & Danny

A fantastic photographer - Derek, we are over the moon with the whole package. You took the time to find out if I was hoping for anything in particular and delivered exactly what I had requested. You made everyone feel comfortable on the day and so many people commented on how good you were. The pictures you have given us are AMAZING! The way you have put everything onto a personalised cd for us as well as giving us actual prints AND all the negatives is brilliant. Both digital and film photograpes are a superb quality and you have managed the light extremely well. Even the set of before-service-nude pictures (which I didn't think would turn out very well) are great! Thank you Derek for giving us such a great set of prints to remember the best day of our lives with.

Dear Derek Thank you very much for your proffessional, unobtrusive and efficient service during the day.

We wanted to thank you for helping make our wedding day so special – since there was only the two of us at the wedding, it was really important that we had a record of the day to share with family and friends, and the photos are even better than we’d hoped for. Not knowing the area that well and with just the two of us there, we did worry that the photographer would become a big part of the day but we needn't have worried. You came up with excellent ideas for photo locations and then just stepped back and let us enjoy the views and the day. You were brilliant. To anyone looking for a photographer, we can’t recommend Derek enough – not only did he take fantastic photos, he even provided us with the witnesses for our wedding!

Derek, thank you for recording our day so brilliantly. You were a delight to work with and everyone (family and friends included) enjoyed your company and felt you blended in so seamlessly that they quite forgot what you were there for. The results of this are 960 photographs and each one is a moment in itself, allowing us to revist the day from start to finish through someone elses eyes. We can't recommend you enough.

We'd also like to pass on the compliments of a number of guests who - like us - were very impressed by the way in which you managed to take some great photos without being obtrusive (something which has spoiled several weddings we have been guests at in the past)

We recently received our film prints from Derek from our wedding at Dunrobin. All I can say is "WOW"! They are incredible! And the digital prints were just as beautiful!! He captured every smile and tear during the ceremony, and everything thereafter. The prints were gorgeous and we could not ask for anything more. They arrived very quickly also! We took them home to Chicago for the family to see and everyone commented on what an awesome photographer Derek was and how lucky we were to have such beautiful photographs. Derek has also become more than just a photographer to us, he is also our friend. We were very lucky to have Derek record our special day. He has that "special something" that not every photographer has. He takes his time with you and is very patient! Thank you Derek! Your awesome and you hold a special place in our hearts!
