Testimonials
A recent testimonial -
We made the wisest choice of our lives when we chose George as our wedding photographer. From first meeting at a wedding fayre right through to completion of our albums he was a true star. Both him and his fabulous wife Aileen became another couple of friends who were present during our big day. They were helpful, professional and thorough without being intrusive and got some amazing pictures. George even helped with ideas for locations and even though it rained on the day they both made sure we got the pics we wanted and more. My bridesmaids also had a bit of a competition to see who could photograph the photographer the most. All my guests commented on their professionalism and friendly demeanour and my albums are so much better than we could have hoped for. We would not hesitate in using them again for any photography needs that may arise in the future. Truly a sound investment. Thanks again for all your hard work. It truly was a pleasure. Gime my love to the dog. (Also a star).

George & Aileen:
We were extremely fortunate to have you as our photographer and despite that this was a business arrangement, you and Aileen made this feel anything but just that. When we think back at our day, thoughts of you both are also there for you were both such an integral part of the day.
We still receive many comments from family and friends about our wedding day and many have commented that our album, the album itself, and the photographs therein are the best that they have ever seen. And should I dare say that some of those family and friends commenting so are no youngsters so they have been around long enough to have seen a few wedding albums!

"Dear George,
Thank you George for being our photographer for our Wedding Day. Our pictures have turned out better than we could have hoped for.
We really appreciated the fact that you took the time to visit the venue with us prior to our wedding day. Your forward planning really helped to get an understanding on both sides as to where the pictures would be taken especially as the weather was unreliable.
You worked very hard on the actual day to ensure that you captured everything we wished for.
We are delighted with our Wedding Album. Again you worked closely with us to put together a very professional & personal record of our Wedding Day.

Hi George
Sorry it's taken a long time to write the testimonial but Gavin and I have been very busy with work!!
We would both like to send our thanks for all the effort and hard work you put in on our wedding day. The quality of the photos are testament to that! One thing that really stood out for us was the good communication from you before, during, and after the wedding. You made it easy for us to view all the photos, select our favourites and choose a fantastic album which we will cherish forever. A big thank you to you and your wife and all the best for the future.

Hi George.
Just a quick e-mail to say thank you very much for the photoshoot. It was really professional and good fun. Was great the ideas you had, also how you took as long as it took for us to have a good selection of photos to choose from. Your price was the best that we could find and we will defitely keep a hold of your telephone number for future events/occasions or if anyone require a photographer. The photograph was a present for our mum who is 50 on her birthday from our auntie. Im sure she will be Very,Very happy with the results. Thanks again.

A massive thank you George for all your hard work before, during and after our wedding. To put all the people reading this in the picture, we met George and his wife Aileen at a Wedding Fayre at the Ramada Jarvis Hotel, Livingston, we had already chosen a photographer but something didn't feel right, they say that you should get on with your photographer and feel at ease especially as they are a huge part of your special day, as soon as we saw samples of the photo's George had taken we were immediately hooked and we knew in our hearts that we wanted George to be our photographer as the rapport was there from the moment we met.
George has the patience of a saint and nothing is too much trouble, we should know he spent 8 hours with us designing our story book wedding album! We started off with 40 pages and ended up with 85! This was mainly due to the high quality and huge quantity of pictures George took of us on our wedding day and we were spoilt for choice.
The album itself tells the story of our day and is the perfect memory that will last a lifetime and excellent value for money (to quote a Gucci slogan "Quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten") it looks absolutely fantastic and nothing like we've seen before. Our friends and family who have seen the album are amazed and can't believe the quality of the pictures and of course the size of the album! George's attention to detail is phenomenal and he captures the moment perfectly.
Not forgetting Aileen who's assistance on the day was second to none, she put us all at ease and ensured we all looked good for the photos.
We highly recommend that if you or someone you know is looking for a professional photographer for a wedding or other special occasion they should definately consider Photos by George. George is very professional and not only takes the time on the special day but meets with you before the day and afterwards to ensure that you receive the best possible result.

Just want to thank you for the wonderful photos you took of my children. I am delighted with some of the images and would recommend you to any one
looking for a photographer. Great Service and very professional.
Will order more prints in the new year.
Philippa Nicholl
"George offers a really friendly personal service. Our daughters felt very comfortable and really enjoyed themselves. As a result we have a wonderful set of natural happy photos to treasure forever."
"I would highly recommend Photos By George.
The picture quality and the number of effects you can choose from are amazing, as is the price! But what really makes him special is the personal touch, I was in constant e-mail contact with him and he didn't seem to mind.
Also I usually hate having photos taken and was not looking forward to it, but I spent most of the day laughing and joking in the relaxed atmosphere George creates. He actually listened to what I want, and didn't try to put me into any victorian poses!"
Charlotte - A recent Wedding.
We are delighted that we chose Photos by George to be our wedding photographer.
George and his wife Aileen were professional, courteous and a pleasure to deal with. The quality of his photos were excellent and he has an exceptional talent for capturing the mood and "story" of the day, both in the formal and informal pictures.
His customer care is exemplary. He took time before the day to understand what we wanted and fulfilled his job perfectly. His advice and expertise helping us achieve the final design of the album were invaluable - we have a beautiful reminder of our special day that we will treasure forever.
We couldn't be happier with the results of George's hard work and dedication - we would thoroughly recommend him to future couples.
Thanks again for doing such a great job!
Allyn & Gillian Dick
George - something for your website:
PhotosbyGeorge have exceeded our expectations.
The personal touch received both before the Wedding when talking to us about
exactly what we were looking for, and after when designing the final album,
were exceptional.
The attention to detail was excellent and the abilty to put everyone at ease
on the day, by George and Aileen, made the photo session itself very
enjoyable.
Some of our favourite photos are ones that we did not know George was even
taking at the time and have perfectly captured our day.
We could not be happier with the final photographs and highly recomend
George to anyone looking for their Wedding day to be photographed in a
proffesional and fun manner.
George - we also voted for you on the ScottishWeddingDirectory.co.uk wedding
provider awards. Not sure if we were able to or not but did anyway!
Thanks
Darren
Hello George
Lisa and I are over the moon with your unique, professional and breathtaken-quality of photos, especially images that can be put together to tell their wedding story,. In fact, you have more photos, than I have ever seen, in a wedding album - instead of 1 photo per page....you have captured it all....well done George....
Lisa's album is "out of this world" and can't wait to see my album.......
I will surely recommend you to anyone who wishes a photographer, for any special
occasion.
Thank you once again

Thanks again

"Your website is very good, interesting and varied photo's I have forward to a few of my friends that are interested in wildlife and airplanes".
regards Gill - Heriot Watt Graduation Ball
& I have recommend Photos by George , as he was so helpful with my questions about purchasing photo's, quickly and in a friendly personnel manner. I enjoyed browsing through the photo's on his website, ' Just shows how fortunate we are in Edinburgh to have such lovely countryside and wildlife'
Kind regards Gill
"We asked George to take a portrait shot of us and were more than happy with the results. We were both a bit apprehensive about our photo shoot but straight away George made us feel very relaxed and even managed to get us laughing which was a help as neither of us enjoy having our photo taken. Although we had thought about poses beforehand it was good to have George's ideas and in the end those were the ideas that worked. Having the photos taken digitally was excellent as it enabled George to see instantly what was working. We are both delighted with the portrait we chose and it was easy and fun to select this at leisure from the web-page. We also took a couple of different photos to pass to the parents as we know we will never look that good again!
We have recommended Photos by George to a friend and will continue to recommend him as he made us feel very relaxed and able to enjoy the experience and with great results. The photos themselves are excellent and George can work wonders with these. The promptness of the finished article was second to none as he had the photos on the website ready for our selection within a few days. Once we had chosen our photos these were available within a few days also. All in all a very professional and speedy but still warm and personal service. - Sandy and Maria"
George and his team made taking shots of our 18 month old appear effortless.
The results were very impressive and we will not hesitate to use Photos by George again.
Very reasonably priced without the hard sell of many of the larger firms. Mr & Mrs Cadie.
Hi George...
I thank you for knocking on my door that morning to let me know of your
profession. We are so delighted with the photographs of Neve and Erin. It
can be tricky with babies/toddlers but you and Aileen made us feel so
welcome and comfortable that day. The service you have provided from
beginning to end has been fantastic and that makes a huge difference to us.
I have no hesitation in recommending you to friends and family and look
forward to future portraits from you.
