With an array of thank you cards and emails from our clients and other suppliers within the wedding industry, we wanted to share some of the sentiments that we have received with you. Thank you to you all for your kind words.
Rebecca & Chris Palmer - Longhirst Hall 21st Aug 2010
I honestly can’t thank you enough for everything you have done to make our day run so smoothly. You really went above and beyond your role and made both Chris and I feel so relaxed. Our guest book was such a talking point but so were you. Many guests commented on your politeness and involvement in the day. We are so glad that we chose you to be part of our wedding.
Lisa & Chris Tocher - Otterburn Hall 20th August 2010
Thank you so much - they are awesome- so happy!! We cannot wait to come and see you. Lisa x
Maureen Appleby - Mother of the Bride
Just a little note to say Thank you so much for being Lisa and Chris’ wedding photographers - you both worked so very hard, and with such attention to detail. We know the photographs will be amazing, and cannot wait to see them. Thank you again.
Sarah Atkinson - Bride’s sister and chief bridesmaid
I am writing to you on behalf of my sister Lisa & Chris her groom! They are currently on their honeymoon in the States - but they didn't want to wait until they were back to let you know how much they appreciated everything you did on their big day. You were both just so lovely and thoughtful throughout the day - you both did above and beyond what was your remit! Everyone at the Wedding has commented on the 'lovely' photographers.
Our whole family is itching to see the results of the big day! As you know weddings really are days that you look back on in the years to come- and I know from what Lisa & Chris have said - they are so happy that you were both part of their special day.
Thank you on behalf of the happy couple and the whole family!
Rachel & Steve Clark - Lindisfarne Castle 16th August 2010
We just wanted to thank you again for all of your amazing efforts for our wedding photography. We had so many people commenting on your style and how lovely you both are!
Thank you also for all your help on the day, we had such a wonderful time. We can’t wait to see the photos!
Alice & Paul Quinn - Close House 15th August 2010
Paul and I had a wonderful wedding day on the 15th. Thank you to you both for making the day go so smoothly with the photos and Chrissie for keeping me calm and helping me get in to my dress. We have looked at the photos and they are brilliant!
Amy & Adam Clare - Ellingham Hall 31st July 2010
We managed to look at most of the photos but will no doubt have many more viewings! They are brilliant, better than we could have ever hoped for or imagined so thank you so much!!!!! We absolutely love them and have no idea how we are going to pick what goes in the album!
Lucy & Matthew Stothard - The Grand Hotel Tynemouth 23rd July 2010
2tone photography are the most professional and competent photographers we spoke to in our search for a fantastic wedding photographer. We were lucky enough to be able to book them for our wedding in July 2010. From the start Nigel and Chrissie were nothing but amazing. Any questions or worries we had were answered promptly. Not only was the process smooth, but the end result was phenomenal. We as well as our family and friends are incredibly thankful to Nigel and Chrissie for capturing our wedding day and night perfectly. There wasn't one detail missing, one shot they hadn't captured, they had thought of everything. All our little personal touches were captured, something we know some photographers do not do. We would highly recommend using 2tone photography's services, they are second to none.
Our perfect day and perfect photos. We could not have asked for more. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. We are so impressed with them, you guys were amazing
Claire & Gavin Malecki - The Alkwick Garden 10th July 2010
We can’t thank you enough for the great job you did on our wedding day, from helping us dress in a rush in the morning to getting the rabble organised for pictures! It was so much fun and all our guests said how great you both were. We are having loads of fun going through the photos, too many good ones to choose from! I would definately recommend you to anyone I know getting married!
Claire & Jon Smith - Hilton Hotel Gateshead 9th July 2010
Both Jon and I have veiwed the photographs on line 307 miles apart as Jon works away. They are fantastic. They have captured highlights of the day many of which I missed. I can’t thank you enough for all you did for us on our wedding day. I look forward to seeing you soon x
Eugene & Michelle - True Jesus Church and Ap Chau, Newcastle 6th July 2010
Nigel and Christina. Thank you so much for being part of our wedding day. You were both so friendly, helpful, enthusiastic and professional from the first time we met that you put us at ease straight away! Not only that but you managed to provide us with the most beautiful set of memories we could hope for and for that we are eternally grateful.
Kevin & Lauren Weatherley - Langley Castle 27th June 2010
We must say a massive thank you to you both for the fantastic work you did on our wedding day, you were brilliant from start to finish, everybody mentioned how great you were. You will definitely be recommended!!!
Laura & Johnnie Blanch - Langley Castle 20th June 2010
Johnnie and I felt that we just had to drop you a line to express our immense gratitude and admiration for the amazingly professional and sensitive way in which you photographed our fantastic wedding day. From the very start, you put everyone at their ease, combining some very intimate informal shots with the obligatory large group photographs. With your gently persuasive manner, you were able to get the very youngest and indeed oldest of our guests to gladly be photographed. Your breadth of experience and exceptional knowledge and skill are clearly evidenced in the amazing photographs that Johnnie and I now have to treasure. Everyone who has seen our wedding pictures has been absolutely bowled over by their outstanding quality. We cannot thank you enough!
Hey Chrissie and Nigel, we just wanted to say a hugh thank you for our amazing album! We can’t stop looking at it and we are showing it off to everyone. Thank you for all of your hard work xx
Lindsey & Stephen Smith - South Shields Town Hall 29th May 2010
We just want to say again thank you so so much. Our photographs are absolutely fantastic, we couldn't be happier with them. It has been so difficult to choose the photo's for our album because they are all so gorgeous. They completely tell the story of our special day and well and truly capture those special emotions.
We would also just like to say how wonderful it was to have you both at our wedding, it was like having 2 friends with us. You made us feel so at ease with having our photographs taken. We would (and already have) recommend you to couples we know. You really are so passionate about your subject which really shows in the photographs.
Andrea & Iain - Doxford Hall 14th May 2010
We are chuffed with the photos, you've done a really good job !
Louise & Chris Pearce - Redworth Hall Hotel 8th May 2010
Chrissie and Nigel are very professional but made us feel very comfortable and relaxed at the same time and this shows in their photographs. Our guests commented on how unobtrusive they were and a lot of the time we didn't realise they were snapping away so we have lots of natural, beautiful photos that are not at all 'stuffy' or posed. We couldn't be happier with the photos. There isn't a bad one among them which made it very difficult when it came to choosing! Every time we look through the photos we remember so much about our wedding day as they are like a storyboard of the day from start to finish
Louise & Jamie Siddle - Horton Grange 1st May 2010
Linda and Geoff Woodcock - Parents of the Bride
Thank you very much for helping to make Louise and Jamie’s wedding day so special. Your help with everything was much appreciated.
Sarah & Ian White - The Alnwick Garden 24th April 2010
We would like to say that you both made our day special. Extremely professional and excellent photographers. Highly recommendable. We absolutely love the photographs and are extremely proud to show them to everyone. Thank you, thank you..
Alexandra & Andrew Charlton - Slaley Hall 17th April 2010
You are an amazing couple full of life, passion and above all Talent. It was a pleasure to have you at our Wedding and was one of the best decisions we made. You made things effortless for us and the guests and produced better than we could have ever expected. Every photo is my Favourite! You make the finest team and i would reccommend you to everyone looking for the highest quality! THANKYOU
Tina & Andy Fenwick - Gisborough Hall 11th April 2010
I would like to say a big thank you you for photographing our wedding everyone said how hard working you both were and everyone loved the guest book. A few people have even asked for your details.
Glen & Emma Kerry - Beamish Hall 10th April 2010
We want to say a huge thank you to you guys. Our wedding pictures are totally amazing, everything we could have wished for and more.
All of our guests commented on how friendly, fun, efficient and easy going you both were. We almost didn’t even notice you were there half the time. The pictures of us together on our own are so beautiful and dramatic. Its surprising just how little of our time you took to get such beautiful shots. We would and have already recommended you to our friends, thank you so much.
Joanne & Stephen White - Beamish Hall 9th April 2010
Our photos our fabulous! You both were fantastic on the day and it shows in the photos, you’ve captured the whole day.
Jenny & Ross Elgie - Durham Castle 4th April 2010
Thank you both so much for being so great for us at our wedding, we had a fantastic time and you captured it so well in your photographs, we even used a selection for our thank you cards. All of our guests commented on how lovely our photographers were! So not only did you manage to make us look good but you also kept our guests (and priest!) happy - so thank you! It was difficult picking the pictures on this card as you took so many fantastic ones! Thanks again for all of your help, Jenny and Ross xx
Laura & Dave O’Toole - Langley Castle 13th March 2010
I just wanted to send a note to thank you so much for all your hard work on the day of our wedding.
I’ve heard so many positive comments from our guests about how nice you both were and how professional (which of course we knew already), and that you’d taken the time to explain to people what you were doing or trying to achieve etc, and that you made them feel at ease. We had a brilliant day helped in part by your organisation and the time you took to get everything the way we wanted it.
Vicky & Lee Walker - Wynyard Hall 27th Febuary 2010
We have just got back from our honeymoon and wanted to say a big thank you for the work you did on our wedding day. Loads of people commented on how professional you were and how sociable you were when photographing everyone.
I would be happy to recommend you to friends in the future.
Matt & Danielle Moore - Lumley Castle 20th Febuary 2010
We had a wonderful night last night. We made chocolate fondue and cuddled up on the sofa to look through our pictures. It was soooo much fun. They are just superb. A real great mix of colours and angles and moments. Was great fun reliving the day in pictures. Thank you for everything so far. A really great job.
Lisa & Peter chilton - Royal Botanical Gardens Birmingham 6th Febuary 2010
You guys are the best! We cannot thank you enough for our gorgeous photographs. We are so grateful that you travelled all the way to Birmingham for us. We’ve never been particularly photogenic, but love every single photo you took. Every detail of the day was captured in the most magical way. We just can’t stop looking at them! We can’t wait to see our album! You were both so supportive during the day; it felt like we were being photographed by close friends. Our guests were even commenting on how wonderful you were, and many of our married friends are very jealous they didn’t hire you too!
Dennis Orchard - Uncle of Bride and Award winning wedding photographer
Chrissie and Nigel THANK YOU so much for letting me share in the photography yesterday at Lisa & Peter’s wedding. You can’t imagine how happy I am that Lisa choose you both to cover her weddding and your reward (should you choose to accept it) is a Face Book friend request where you can see a whole load of pictures of me making a fool of myself all over the world!!.
Alison & Charlie Collins - Durham Castle 9th January 2009
Just a brief note before we head off to say thank you so much for all your effort on Saturday. We had the most amazing wedding day and really appreciated all the hard work you put in to it. I know the conditions were not easy all round due to the deep snow and blizzards, but you were all smiles and cheerful throughout! All of our guests mentioned how wonderful you both were and they enjoyed your company. You really helped everything go to plan and had some great suggestions to help the day/night run smoothly!
Thank you very much!
Lindsey & Tony Ingham - Lumley Castle 21st December 2009
It was lovely to meet you. Tony and I very much enjoyed the session. We are totally spoilt for choice with the lovely images that you have sent to us. Thank you, it means so much to us for your kindness, care and effort.
Rachel & Jonathan Winlow - Beamish Hall 2009 12th December 2009
My husband and I had a Christmas wedding at Beamish Hall, and although the day went by too fast our beautiful photographs will last a lifetime. I can’t recommend 2tone Creative Photography enough, Nigel and Chrissie were friendly and professional. Everybody who has seen our Wedding Album has commented on the high quality of the pictures and said its the best album they have ever seen. We can’t thank Nigel and Chrissie enough.
Valerie Spoor - Mother of the Bride
The photographs are fabulous, I love them, thank you so much.
Tanya & Steven McMillan - Seaham Hall 2009 5th December 2009
We want to say a huge thank you for everything you did for us on our Big Day, you both went way beyond the call of duty for wedding photographers and we appreciate it all so much.
Chrissie - you were like a third bridesmaid to me, you did everything from dress me, get me umberellas at the slightest hint of rain and locate my groom for me on several occasions during the day and evening proceedings! The boys will be eternally grateful to Nige for sorting out the every buttonhole in the wedding party and keeping them all right with where they were meant to be and when!
Steven’s dad is very interested in photography and has never stopped raving about the two of you as he has been to many weddings where he has pretty much been asked to step aside and yet he felt so comfortable being able to ask you questions about what you were doing and thoroughly enjoyed chatting to you about your work.
So many of our guests asked where on earth we found such a lovely couple to take our wedding photographs - I really do feel that your friendly manner and professionalism are just as good as your pictures - and that really is something.
Thanks again for all your efforts and for staying so late into the evening as I realise it was a very long day for you.
Love and best wishes, Tanya and Steven xxx
Allan McMillan - Father of the Groom
The photos of Tanya and Steven’s Wedding 05-12-09 are brilliant !!! but I knew they would be. Thank you for letting me get in on the act!
Melanie & Lee Marshall - The Ramside Hall Hotel 20th November 2009
THANKYOU! THANKYOU! THANKYOU We had an amazing day yesterday we are soo pleased we had you as our photographers...lots of people have commented on how professional and friendly you were yesterday. We can’t wait to see our pics! sooo excited! Thanks again
Mr & Mrs Marshall XXXXXXXXXXXXX
WOW WOW WOW, our photos are brill no way we going to be able to choose! Beach photos are stunning!
Amy & Craig Wrightson - Wynyard Hall 7th November 2009
Just wanted to drop you a quick e-mail to say that we love the photos!!! We can’t stop looking at them!
We are going to really struggle to select the ones that we want, we love them all!
When deciding on the photographers for our wedding we wanted a combination of fantastic natural pictures but also not to feel that our day was purely driven by getting our pictures taken, Nigel and Chrissie certainly didn't disappoint. By having two photographers on the day every moment was captured and the pictures are stunning, we were so happy with them that we decided to get double the amount for the album that we had originally planned plus albums as gifts for our parents. We couldn’t be happier with the pictures and the album that we have chosen, Nigel and Chrissie created a beautiful memory of our day. We are looking forward to booking our next session with them after the birth of our first baby in December!
Jo-Anne & Ian Dodson - The Alnwck Garden 17th October 2009
We just wanted to say a huge thank you to you both for yesterday, we had so many comments from our guests about what a lovely couple you are. Chrissie it was lovely to share my wedding morning with you, thank you for all of your help and advice - above and beyond the job of a photographer!
Rosie & Luke Newman - Islington Town Hall London & MC Motors London 26th September 2009
Go Team Photo!! You guys are amazing... a beautiful family, and the pictures you took are beautiful too. Thank you for travelling so far and all that you did on the day, we hope that you enjoyed it as much as we did. It’s great to see Charlie again, all grown up, he’s quite a charmer! See you soon and lots of love.
Amy & David Fox - Beamish Hall 20th September 2009
David and I had already had the pleasure of meeting Chrissie and Nigel at my sisters wedding a year earlier. We met them on that day and were so impressed with how lovely, friendly and professional they were. They made you feel completely at ease straight away. After the ceremony I can honestly say it was like having two extra guests at the wedding who we felt we had known for sometime. They were both an absolute delight to have with us on that special day.
Our minds were already made up and upon seeing the photographs and album from my sisters wedding we booked them straight away, and they did not disappoint.
The fabulous benefit of having both Chrissie and Nigel photograph the day, was that every memorable moment was captured, and in such a beautiful way. We especially loved all of the natural photographs that were taken of both guests, the setting and ourselves. Their unique artistic skill has ensured us so many stunning and timeless images that we can treasure always.
We were so over the moon with the finished results that we decided to buy two albums as we didn’t want to run the risk of missing out on any of the fabulous pics they had taken.
Chrissie and Nigel, you both made our day so special and have given us amazing images so that we can relive that fab day over and over. Thank you both so much and I will be recommending you guys to every single friend I have that gets married.
Victoria & Chris Bastain - Langley Castle 19th September 2009
Many thanks to you both for a fantasically organised day with a special thanks for the pictures of the kids. The final pictures are amazing and represent our day perfectly. You are a brilliant team
Catherine & Andy Beatty - Matfen Hall 13th September 2009
A massive thank you for making our wedding day perfect. Our special day couldn’t have gone better and it was truly down to your knowledge, getting the group shoots done so efficiently outside the church and then whisking everyone off to Matfen. We had a lots of positive feedback about how good you worked has a pair and blended in so well into the wedding, when often other wedding photographers run the show!!
Attending the engagement session really helped Catherine and I to get used to being photographed, which normally would be an alien experience for the both of us. We were so delighted with the shots taken that windy day on Hadrians Wall, it inspired us to take more pictures on days out and on our honeymoon in the Maldives, Catherine has become very arty with some of her shots!! haha
We got around to viewing the online wedding photos at the weekend with a large glass of wine and all I can say is WOW!! We were unbelievably impressed with the pure quality of the shots taken, some great timeless pictures with stunning shots of the drive up to the church and lots of shots which focus on the attention to detail which made the day. Thank you once again.
Leanne & Neil Adamson - The Ramside Hall Hotel 12th September 2009
We’ve been looking through the proofs of the wedding and to be honest are finding it very difficult to work out which prints to use as we love them all!!
Christine Adamson - Mother of the Groom
Thank you so much for the beautiful photos of Neil and Leannes wedding. I was very impressed by your dedication and attention to detail as you clicked away all day. It is obvious you love what you are doing. Keep doing it!!
Many thanks and kind regards
Claire & George Lydon - Quayside Exchange Sunderland 11th September 2009
We can’t thank you both enough for all of your hard work at our wedding last week, the whole day was perfect and ran smoothly and it was mostly down to the two of you! It has been a pleasure to get to know you both and we can’t wait to get to work on our album.
Josephine & Michael Ch’ng - Lumley Castle 6th September 2009
Just had a look at our wedding photos on your site, they are great! You guys have done a great job, thank you so much.
Mimi & Kevin Wang - Seaham Hall 17th August 2009
Kevin and I would like to thank you both for being sooo great on the day, we were able to relax and enjoy our day. The timings were all spot on...really pleased :-) xx
Ashley & Darryl Manning - The Grand Hotel, Tynemouth 16th August 2009
What can we say! Wow!! The photos look fantastic online. We are so pleased with them. Not sure how we'll narrow them down!!!They really reflect how happy Darryl and I were on the big day! You've covered the whole day from start to finish, but you managed to do it in a way that didn't feel like you were imposing, you were very inconspicuous!! You really put us at ease and we would certainly recommend you. Thanks so much
Kay & Shaun Douglas - Seaburn Marriott Hotel Sunderland 14th August 2009
Having Chrissie and Nigel being our photographers was just like having friends at the wedding, they made us and everyone else feel so comfortable. The photos were excellent we couldnt have asked for anything more.
Lesley Anne & Neil Box - Hallgarth Manor 8th August 2009
Oh my goodness how on earth are we going to choose, they are all fab!!
We cannot speak highly enough of Nigel and Chrissie and would have no hesitation in recommending them to any of our friends or family. Their professionalism, attention to detail and quality of the photos were exceptional and was money well spent on our special day.
Lisa & Peter McCluskey - Seaburn Marriott Hotel, Sunderland 7th August 2009
Thank you both for doing such a wonderful job. It really helped to make our wedding day special.
Linda & Damien Cooper - Matfen Hall 2nd August 2009
We would like to thank you for the fantastic job that you have done on our wedding photographs. There are so many great photos, it’s so difficult for us to choose... we just have to buy them all!
We’re really grateful for you staying on for the evening and capturing so special moments. Your photos will always remind us of the wonderful day we had. Thank you... thank you... thank you!
Lucy & Michael Smalley - Matfen Hall 31st July 2009
Thanks so much for doing our wedding photography the other week. You were brilliant on the day and took just the approach we wanted! - looking through them was like reliving it all again!!
Marianne & Tom Costello - Redworth Hall 4th July 2009
Just taking time out from the storms over in Mexico! Thanks so much for Saturday, we cant wait to see the photos!! All of our family and friends commented on how fantastic you were with them also, I think you may have a couple of sales from our guests.
We first met Chrissie and Nigel at a wedding fayre at our chosen venue. We instantly fell in love with the pictures and after talking to them we knew from their relaxed and professional attitude they would perfectly represent our wedding.
On the day we couldn’t have asked for more, they captured every detail in such an unobtrusive and friendly manor. It speaks volumes that we struggled to narrow down the shots for our stunning Queensberry because they were all just so amazing.
We found every aspect of the service so good that we recommended them to friends, who’ve since gone on to choose Chrissie and Nigel to be part of their special days also.
Kimberley & Daniel dellar - Point Clear, Alabama 27th June 2009
- Stephanie Swanson - Sister of the bride
I first met Nigel and Chrissie while serving as my sister’s wedding planner for her wedding at Lumley Castle and I knew we had found the perfect fit! Unfortunately, my sister moved her wedding back to our home in the U.S. and we had to search for another photographer. No one even compared to their talent, package options, and most of all, their delightful and enthusiastic personalities. So, on a whim, we asked if they wanted to take the jaunt across the pond and by luck, they were available to do so! My sister‘s wedding would not have been as much fun nor would all those special memories have been beautifully and artfully captured if not for the Davisons’ passion, dedication, and experience. We were fast friends and I have no doubt this is not unusual for them.
Gemma & Kieran Loan - Mother of the Bride - Beamish Hall 12th June 2009
I just wanted to drop you a note to say a massive Thank you for all your hard work at Gemma and Kieran‘s wedding on Friday.
They thoroughly enjoyed the day and for someone who hates having her photo taken, Gemma seemed to thoroughly enjoy it!!!
We can’t wait to see their final selections (I don’t envy them having to choose which they want in the album as I’m sure they will want them all!!!). Thank you so much for everything.
Beverley & David Coleman - Beamish Hall 7th June 2009
We are so pleased that we booked Nigel and Chrissie to photograph our wedding. They really captured the essence and personality of the day and made everyone feel at ease with incredible results. Their passion for photography and excellence shows in each photograph making it a very difficult choice to narrow down the numbers for our album. We would not hesitate to book 2tone Creative Photography again for any occasion.
Rachel & Kav Bamrah - Longhurst Hall 24th May 2009
A massive thanks to you both, our photographs are AMAZING, we were fortunate enough to view them in Thailand on honeymoon. it was fab, sitting in sea view bar, drinking champagne, watching our slide show :) Thank you also for all of your help and advice, everyone comemented on how brilliant you both were, and how long you stayed. We will defiantly keep recommending you (2 friends have already booked you guys) Lots of Love
Debbie & Gary Stewart - Beamish Hall 23rd May 2009
Debbie and I can’t thank you both enough for enhancing our wedding experience with the service provided before, during and after the wedding. The most prominent reason we wanted to have our photographs taken by you both was that we felt that the photographs and the experience meant as much to you as they would to us, and we weren’t disappointed.
The pre-wedding discussions meant that we both approached the wedding day relaxed that we would have nothing to worry about with regards to the photography. This was bore out by the professionalism you both showed not just in the photography, but also the way in which you managed the guests in a friendly efficient manner, which we thought was an achievement in itself. The photos themselves are superb and really are what we both wanted from our wedding day, a testament to not only to your photography skills but in delivering exactly what was discussed before the wedding.
With so many wedding photographs to choose from we found your advice on how best to produce the wedding album immeasurable. The timing in the delivery of the subsequent album and mini albums occurred before we actually anticipated, which again removed any worries.
In summary it wasn’t just the quality of the photography, it was the honest and friendly manner in which you both approached our wedding day that made our decision the right one.
Dana & Chris Lillie - The royal county Marriott hotel, Durham 9th May 2009
Thank you so much for all of your help on our wedding day, not only taking wonderful photos but Chrissie helping me get into my dress and tidying up after us (we were so messy!) You helped everyone keep calm and relaxed. You were both so professional and so friendly, we could’nt have asked for anyone nicer.
Everyone has commented on how friendly you both were, and how you took time to speak to our guests, especially my Nanna and Grandad. It’s going to be so hars to pick our photo’s for our album as they are all so fantastic, we love the way that they are all so natural, which make them look even better. We will definately be coming back for family shots in the future and we will recommend you both to everyone. Thanks again for helping us keep our memories of our special day forever
Kelly & Gavin - Glass centre, Sunderland 1st May 2009
You’re probably tucked up in bed at this time of night but just had to tell you.....I told Gavin I would wait for his return before I watched the slideshow....I couldn't wait! I love, love, love them truly. Everyone told me make sure you are happy with the choice of photographer it will be the 'only' thing you have to keep from the day and how much do I know now that I made the right choice.
Throughout the day you were both extremely professional but still very friendly just fitting in throughout. I just wanted to say thank you. You probably get these 'daft' emails all the time but from the bottom of my heart thank you x
Carol & Mark McFarlane - Horton Grange 9th April 2009
Thank you so much for the amazing photo’s of our wedding day, we have found it so difficult to choose our favourites! Thanks again for helping to give us such beautiful memories and photographs.
Jen & Simon Robson - Langley Castle 5th April 2009
We are back from our honeymoon and I am really excited about the photos!
We have had a look at them online and they are wonderful!!!!!
Thank you so much again. We have been singing your praises to everyone who will listen!
We just had to drop you a note to say Thank you for making sure we are now the proud owners of a fantastic Queensberry wedding album! Everyone we have shown it to has said Wow! One friend said that it is the best she has ever seen! ( I happen to agree!) Someone else has asked for your name and number! Anyway, Thank you for helping us enjoy our day over and over again, every time I look at the photographs I remember something else! I am so glad that my Mum and Ian bumped into you in Jessops!
Zoe & Neil - New Hall Hotel 4th April 2009
We are just back from honeymoon and wanted to say a really BIG THANK YOU for your fantastic photography which gives us the lasting memories of our day. All credit to you both, I have lost count of our friends and family that have said you are the very best photographers they have ever met and felt that by the end of the day you were friends not just 'wedding photographers', that means a huge amount to us and you have certainly left a lasting impression with everyone.
We were fortunate to be able to view the pictures whilst on honeymoon in Malaysia and I had tears in my eyes at how you had captured moments we didn't have the opportunity, or either of us didn't see with the preparation of our special day.
You both truly deserve to continually have a 'full diary' of events, you are committed and passionate about your work and these qualities are sometimes the "missing ingredient" in a successful business.
Clair & Lewis Pendleton - Beamish Hall 29th March 2009
To Nigel and Chrissie, We knew when we chose you to photograph our wedding that the pictures would be amazing, but nothing prepared us for the truly breathtaking images we saw. You captured our love and happiness perfectly, the photographs are completely beyond our expectations. We can’t begin to thank you enough for allowing us to relive our perfect day every time we look at our perfect photographs! X Thank you so very much.
Claire & Haytham - Hilton Hotel, Gateshead 7th March 2009
Thank you very much for capturing our special day so beautifully and completely unintrusively. You were not only extremely helpful and accommodating, but also a pleasure to have with us on our day.
Sarah & David Bruce - Hardwick Hall 15th Feb 2009
We just wanted to say thanks to you again for how fantastic you both were on our wedding day. We could not have asked for anyone nicer or more professional to take our photos and we can’t wait to see how they come out. Everything you did for us was appreciated from Christina helping me get ready and tidying my room, to you both trailing about in the mud to get the group shot. Everyone commented on how friendly you were and we really appreciate the time you took to speak to our guests, particularly those who had questions about taking photos and the photographic equipment! We also really appreciate how late you stayed and how many photos you took. Thank you both again, we cannot wait to see the photos, which considering how little confidence I have in how I look should show you how much confidence I have in you both.
Kirsty & Darren Clark - Cheddar Gorge, Somerset 3rd January 2009
We have Just viewed the wedding pictures, they are beautiful! Thank you both for all of your help and providing such great photographs to remind us of our day!
Adrienne & Phillip Cleugh - Beamish Hall 29th December 2008
We are delighted with the photographs and feel they ultimately capture the emotions felt during the day, from anxiety to pure elation. You really helped to put everyone at ease, (especially the bride who was having a bad case of nerves/butterflies pre-ceremony) and so were able to capture natural expressions and emotions. We are still trying to decide which photographs to use for the album, which is proving so difficult. All guests commented upon how professional you both were, yet down to earth, friendly and 'popped up everywhere'. It was fascinating for me and Philip to see photographs of each other getting ready and preparing for the day, having been apart at that stage. A big thank you, just perfect! X
Lindsey & Graeme Campbell - Langley Castle 28th December 2008
'Nigel and Christina took the most amazing photographs of our wedding; they were so natural and captured the little moments we missed. All our friends and family have commented on the photo's, some even saying they are the best wedding photo's they have ever seen!' I would definitely recommend Nigel and Christina, if you are looking for Stylish, Modern and Natural Photographs, which will bring back memories of your day forever'.
Tina & Neel - Indian Engagement Ceremony 13th December 2008
We would both like to say a very big thank you to you both for making us feel as relaxed as we could throughout the whole evening. We absolutely love the pictures; you captured every moment and are looking forward to you taking our pictures in the forthcoming functions. Thanks and all the best to you both and Charlie!
Wendy & Mark Steedman - Matfen Hall 7th December 2008
The service that Chrissie and Nigel provided for our wedding photographs was first class. They both worked well together and by having two professional photographers on the day meant we were able to have all angles covered on the day. The customer service was excellent from the first day we met to discuss our wedding plans through to the final photo album. We both wish them all the success they deserve and would highly recommend 2tone photography.
Anna & Gav Hall - Quayside exchange 29th November 2008
Thank you both so much, everyone commented on how great you were on the day, we would definitely recommend you to friends, family and people. We love the photos capturing our special day - as does everyone else. It will be sooo hard to choose from them when we come to do the album with you, we are very excited. Thanks Again. Look forward to seeing you both soon.
Julie & Michael Groves - Lumley Castle 15th November 2008
It’s hard to put into words how much it makes us smile and relive our special day every time we look at the photos. We love our photos they captured everything that made our day so special and you were both fantastic, you let the day go with the flow and caught a lot of shots with our guests that we didn’t see on the day. Thanks for everything!
Dan & Lynsey Hipgrave - Langley Castle 8th November 2008
Thanks Nigel and Chrissie for doing such a fantastic job of our wedding photographs. Whilst being extremely professional and wonderfully artistic you were both also lovely company to have around us on such a special day. We loved the fact you work so well as a couple, both offering something different as well as catching two different sides to a momentous day. Our recommendation to other couples can't come high enough!
Lesley & Wayne Firbank - Crathorne Hall 26th October 2008
Nigel and Christina, thank you both so much for making our wedding day so special. We had had so many comments from our guests, family and friends complimenting the fantastic photographs, with some saying that they are the best wedding photographs that they had ever seen. You managed to capture the essence of the day with perfection. We truly had an amazing day and now had so many wonderful photographs and memories to cherish. With much love and appreciation.
Nicola & Colin Dickeson - Beamish Hall 24th October 2008
From the moment we met Chrissie & Nigel at their home we knew we had made the right decision. We looked at a number of photographers but their photographs were by far the best and displayed an attention to detail which we were looking for. They really are a lovely couple who are passionate about what they do and work together very well. All our guests commented on how professional they were but most of all they were great fun to have around us on the day and made us feel very relaxed. Our wedding photographs really are fantastic; they have captured our special day from the preparations right through to the evening. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Chrissie & Nigel they really are the BEST. Thanks to both of you for such beautiful photographs and memories.
Nicola & John Smith - Beamish Hall 11th October 2008
Chrissie and Nigel are what we would describe as 'contemporary relaxed' When we first met they knew instantly what we wanted from our wedding photographs - to capture those irreplaceable moments as the day unfolded underpinned by a small selection of more formal photographs. Their ability to work almost unnoticed for the most part and with a warm friendly confidence when required resulted in a selection of truly exceptional photographs of our day. We would not hesitate to recommend them.
Daniel & Anne Marie Drozdzewski - Horton Grange 6th October 2008
Thank you so much for helping to make our day so special. Thanks for the safety pin Christina! I look forward to seeing the pictures of the car incident Nigel! We are really looking forward to meeting you again to discuss our album. Thanks Chrissie and Nigel for being a wonderful part of our celebrations, may your business grow as it deserves to! Lots of Love
Kathleen Bourke - Mother of the bride, Anne Marie and Daniel 6th October 2008
Hi Nigel & Chrissie! I know that Anne Marie & Daniel have been in touch, but want to add my personal thanks and congratulations on your wonderful photos, as well as the pleasure of your company on the 6th. You took amazing care of everyone and we have a wonderful pictorial record to share with friends & family - especially with some who were not able to attend - and of course, to treasure ourselves.
Sonia & Patrick - Durham Castle 26th September 2008
Chrissie and Nigel, Pat and I were very happy with your photos. They are a beautiful reminder of the day. You and Nigel have a very easy way with you which made us feel at ease whilst setting up beautiful shots. We also felt that you weren't intrusive at all throughout the day, just part of the big day, catching all of those special moments.
Sophie & Paul Stead - Lumley Castle 20th September 2008
Having Nigel and Christina with us on our wedding day was a pleasure. Many of our guests remarked on their friendly and relaxed manner and they were quick to put people at ease when capturing both formal and informal shots. We are more than delighted with the quality of our finished photographs and have found it very hard to choose our favourites from the hundreds of perfect images supplied. Nigel and Christina helped make our day extra special and the fabulous photographs we now have will be a wonderful reminder for years to come.
Terri & Sean Hollinghurst - Otterburn Tower 12th August 2008
Dear Nigel and Chrissie, We just wanted to thank you both again for making our wedding day so unbelievably fantastic and we owe much of that to you both. The guests could not believe how attentive, thoughtful and professional you both were and are all looking forward to seeing the pictures.

Thank you guys so much for helping to make it so good for us, we could not have asked for anything to be better!!
Lap Kun Ho - Wedding Guest of Jim and Susan 20th May 2008
I’ve been to quite a few weddings this year and you two are the friendliest photographers I’ve met which does make so much difference to the photos that come out because you help people feel relaxed around you.
Martin Liu - Wedding Guest of Jim and Susan 20th May 2008
I’m not enquiring for your services just yet. We met at Jim and Susan’s wedding, I was one of the ushers providing the poor Chinese. Anyway I just thought I’d send you a quick message. Was round the happy couple’s last night checking out your photographs on DVD, the photos were nothing less than superb, moments were captured beautifully. SKILLS! We all agreed you did an excellent job and are a delightful couple. Ya, see, san.... Martin
Anna & Paul Wilson - Merewood Country House Hotel, Cumbria 5th May 2008
Thank you so much for our wedding photographs. We had the most perfect wedding day and really enjoyed your company throughout. We really appreciate the work you have put into our album, it’s fabulous! We’ve looked at it hundreds of times. Everyone has now seen it and they all love it, it’s a great memory of the day. Our photographs are a fabulous reminder of the best day of our lives.
Sammy & Michael Johnson - Derwent Manor 12th April 2008
Thank you so much for sharing our wedding day with us and for helping to give such beautiful memories and photographs, much Love
Emma & Steven Guy - Lumley Castle 17th March 2008
Just to say that we were both really impressed with your service on the both the run up to, and on, the day itself. On the day of the wedding you made the whole process very comfortable and relaxed which added to the great atmosphere i.e. no-one was made to feel that they had to 'pose' for the sake of getting a photograph. All the guests commented on how friendly and approachable you both were and you definitely went above and beyond anything we expected. We know that we didn't give you much notice, as our original photographer had cancelled at short notice, but in hindsight we are very glad that he did cancel! Everything we discussed beforehand was carried out with enthusiasm, humour and patience and we cannot thank you enough for being a part of our day.
Dawn & Graham - Shotton Hall 1st March 2008
Chrissie and Nigel were absolutely fantastic when they did the photography for our wedding; they are both passionate and skilled as well as being genuinely nice people. The hundreds of photographs that we got are absolutely out of this world and we would not hesitate to recommend these guys to everyone. The only problem is picking the best ones, now that is proving extremely difficult.
Elizabeth & Chris Grey - Lumley Castle 16th September 2007
Samantha Johnson, Sister of the bride.
I have just been looking at my sister’s wedding photography - Elizabeth and Chris - you photographed their wedding on the 16th September at Lumley Castle, and the pictures are absolutely stunning and really beautiful. Could you provide me with some more information about your service, pricing and whether you are free on our wedding date next year?
Sue Johnson, Mother of the bride.
Just seen the images - they are truly magnificent!! I can't thank you enough for making Elizabeth and Chris so happy. Elizabeth rang this morning almost in tears of joy - don't tell her I said that- They are just amazing. (You can even be forgiven for photographing me ironing)
Karen & Nick Rodopolous - Washington Old Hall 25th August 2007
I wanted to let you know that I took my wedding album to work yesterday and everyone thought it was beautiful, “I’ve never seen an album like it before” “It’s the best wedding album I have ever seen” “I wish my wedding album was like this its much better than mine” are just some of the compliments I got. I felt very proud to show everyone as every time a page was turned there was at least one photograph on the page that somebody thought was fantastic!! Thank you very much for everything we have a book of wonderful memories that we can look at in 10 years time and remember it like it was yesterday.
Rachel & Matt Emms Hobbins - Georgian Theatre Royal, Richmond 11th August 2007
We LOVE LOVE LOVE the photos! I have recommended you to a friend who is getting married next year so she will be ringing you too.
Thanks again
Julie & Chris Moon- The Stadium of Light 7th July 2007

Angela & Darren Sterling - Lumley Castle 31st May 2007
WOW, WOW, WOOOOOWWWW!!!! They are utterly FANTASTIC! I knew you guys were good, but oh my god!
Hope this message conveys how excited I am!
Laura & Graham - The Ramside Hall Hotel 8th April 2007
Everybody has commented on the real quality of your work, and also how fantastic you were on the day. We feel that you have captured the day perfectly - Just how we remember it, but also you have photographs of people/expressions/ moments that we didn’t get to see at the time and it has been a real treat to watch it all.

Hi Christina & Nigel, I just thought I would drop you a quick message to wish you both a Happy New Year! It was a pleasure to see and work with you at Beamish Hall on the 29th December. It was great to see some professional photographers that got really involved with the wedding party and their guests. I don’t mean to put down your profession, but I see so many photographers that have no life in them and they look bored when conducting their trade - both of you came across to me as upbeat and a credit to your industry. You also interacted with the people in the room and I’m sure this helps you get the shots you want.
I would also like to add you to my list of recommended suppliers.
Once again though, it was good to meet you at that wedding and I hope our paths cross in the near future.

Thank you so very much for sending through the disc with images on. Let me just say...wow! You have a fantastic creative talent. I haven't seen any photography in my time in publishing that really captures each moment individually and in its own way. Your style of photography is exactly what I’ve been looking for to take the In & Around brand forward. Many thanks again and I will be in touch.
Kind regards
