We booked Holly for our wedding at Osborne House in July after she was recommended to us by another photographer. From the first enquiry we sent Holly to even after the big day she has continued to impress us with her professionalism as well as friendliness! On meeting Holly for a coffee to see her work we decided to book her then and there as really liked the photos she showed us as well as her as a person and felt like we were in good hands.
Our next meeting was at our engagement photoshoot which I really recommend if you decide to book Holly! She managed to take some great photos of us and our dog in Ventnor and it got us used to being in front of a camera.
On the day itself, Holly was great and a lot of out guests commented on how lovely she was. She managed to get the formal photos done really quickly so the guests could go back to enjoying themselves, and then we went on our professional shoot with her. She managed to take us to some areas of Osborne House to take some really unique photos which we really appreciated.
Holly then sent us the file copy of the images within a week of the wedding! The photos are stunning and we couldn't be happier with them. Some of the photos taken were a surprise as we had no idea she had been there at the time as she managed to be so discreet!
We're so happy we chose Holly to be our photographer and would recommend her wholeheartedly to any couple looking for a relaxed, professional, kind photographer to be part of their big day!

What can we say about Holly that hasn’t already been said?! Holly is a joy and pleasure to work with, she has been a friendly face throughout the lead up to the wedding. If my husband and I are honest, we weren’t sure we needed a photographer for our wedding (it was a 16 person wedding, including myself and my now husband!) We had a look at portfolios online and contacted Holly after loving her intimate style photography. Having reservations on hiring a photographer, we had a chat with Holly over the phone (we live in Buckinghamshire, so no quick coffee and a chat, but we had booked a venue in the Isle of Wight) and we were immediately sold! Holly was incredibly friendly and incredibly helpful, she never pressured us on hiring a photographer, let alone herself. We made the decision on the spot and hired Holly over the phone, and we did not regret it!
Holly is amazing! On our engagement shoot, she was a calming, relaxed and happy influence on two very awkward, slightly nervous people. We were happy to follow Holly’s lead and in no time, we forgot we were having ‘a photoshoot’ and that we were on a very public beach. Without Holly’s patience and unobtrusive style we wouldn’t have had such stunning photographs. Holly does exactly what she lives by ‘photographing people not poses.’ The photographs are beautiful and honest with emotion showing through. We were certain after our engagement shoot that we had definitely found a photographer to fit our style, to the extent that we have had very similar weddings and shared more than a few things in common.
On the big day, Holly was incredible, she is friendly and bubbly, her enthusiasm is infectious in everything she does, be it photographs, quelling last minute wedding nerves or generally being helpful in getting ready. Throughout our extremely windy, rainy day, she never wavered and was happy to troop out as soon as the rain stopped for another photo or two. After the wedding, our photos were very quick to arrive and they are phenomenal!
Holly’s passion for people shines through in her photos, they are perfect in so many ways, and she is, to say the least, a very talented photographer with an eye for the tiniest detail. Her stance on posed photos resulted in the truest emotion in all our photographs, you only have to look at one of the photos to feel exactly what you did in that moment. I will never be grateful enough to Holly for quietly photographing our ‘first look’ on our wedding day. It is and will always be such a special moment for my husband and I, the photos are forever, like the rest of our day, a special keepsake of a raw and true insight to the emotion that was our wedding day.
Holly, you truly did make our wedding day special and a treasure to remember. You will forever be a friend.

We chose Holly as our wedding photographer after carefully scanning the internet for somebody who would capture the feel of our wedding. We were really taken with how well Holly captures the mood of a day through natural photography rather than a series of forced poses and an over reliance on instruction. We made a great choice!
Holly was incredibly friendly from the beginning and organised an informal coffee meeting at a location of our choosing to go over the details. This set the tone for all future meetings. Holly took the time to show us a range of photographs and discuss what kind of things we would like to achieve on our own wedding day. Holly was also open to ideas and inspiration from others and actively encouraged us to share any images that we liked for future reference.
We were absolutely dreading our pre-wedding shoot, neither us having been involved in anything of the like before, but we needn’t have fretted because Holly made the whole experience thoroughly enjoyable and we both came away feeling really positive about the whole day. When we received the photos, we were absolutely blown away by how brilliantly she had captured the scenes as well as the images of us and how she seemed to get the dynamic of our relationship and encapsulate it within the photographs.
We then met again to discuss the next step of our wedding day and Holly put us at ease. To be honest, all of our interactions with Holly were probably the least stressful elements of our wedding preparation! We had very high hopes of the photographs and couldn’t wait to see what Holly would come up with on the day.
Holly was very industrious throughout our wedding day, but never intrusive and always approachable with new ideas. Several guests commented on how busy she seemed to be taking pictures and were full of praise.
When we excitedly viewed the finished photographs, which were delivered very promptly, we were absolutely blown away by their quality. Holly had done a fantastic job of capturing hundreds of amazing photographs which perfectly captured our wedding day. We couldn’t have been happier with the results and can’t praise Holly enough for her work before, during and after the wedding day. We made an absolutely perfect decision in asking Holly to be our wedding photographer and would 100% recommend Holly to anybody who asks us in the future. Lots of love and thanks!

I met Holly at a wedding fayre that we were both working at before we was even engaged, and as soon as we started planning the wedding we knew that we wanted to book her! During our pre-wedding photoshoot she made us feel so comfortable despite the fact that we were really nervous, and by the wedding day we didn't even notice the camera. The shots are all so beautiful and natural, and so many people have said how great her and Lana were on the day and how amazing all the photos are. Thanks Holly!
- Cara & Dan
Well what can we say about Holly. She is absolutely AMAZING!
We did our engagement shoot in Cowes and despite us being awkward in front of the camera Holly got some really amazing pictures. I don’t know how she did it but she added hidden beauty to Cowes, somewhere we had taken for granted all this time.
We asked her to travel from the island and into the New Forest for our wedding and even then nothing was too much for her. She initially went to the hotel which half the wedding party were staying at before travelling over to the venue to meet the other half. Holly has managed to capture some truly magical and beautiful moments from our wedding day including many we missed ourselves.
Holly’s photos speak for themselves (amazing!) but what we can add is that Holly herself is a wonderful person. She knows how to truly put you at ease and although she may not know it was a huge support to one groom on the day just with her calm presence. Holly has said many times that she doesn’t like to be in front of the camera but one of our guests managed to get this cheeky snap which we think shows some of her wonderful personality.

(Her phone had a list of the photos we wanted and she’s checking with us that she had them all)
We cannot recommend Holly enough!
- Nick & Lawrence
Holly was amazing from the moment we got in touch, always quick to respond and very helpful.
She captured some beautiful moments from our wedding day and we couldn't be happier with the photos. Highly recommended.
- Dan & Rachael
Rachel and Ryans wedding, 22nd September 2018. I actually cried when I looked at my daughters wedding photos! They are absolutely stunning! Holly turned up at our house on probably the wettest day of the year with a smile on her face! She put us all at ease and stopped us from worrying. We hired the Old Girl bus and Holly travelled to Ventnor Botanical Gardens with us. Holly took fabulous photos in our house, on the bus and at the venue. The constant rain was no barrier and Holly managed to take some brilliant photos outside. We will treasure these photographs forever. If you want a relaxed friendly photographer who takes natural photos then I can't recommend Holly enough.
- Susan Knight
We first saw Holly at a wedding fair, upon jumping her with random questions we could instantly tell she has a love and skill for what she does. We were quick to choose her after looking at her examples and albums, her package came with an engagement shoot, which we chose a frequent date spot at Shanklin Chine where she captured some beautiful candid shots of us which being a pair who photograph badly on purpose was brilliant.
Holly was good at keeping in touch and was very professional, we received our first shoots photos within a short space of time and we loved them! We even chose one to have as our guest book and allow guests to sign through out our big day.
We met with Holly once before our big day and went over timings and our photo list so we knew how our day would run and what shots were needed, and she was able to split the photos so guests weren't waiting around, and took me and my partner off for some lovely couple photos, her excitement over a big white wall was endearing! Our guests told us she blended in well, and said she was brilliant and friendly, and had an eye for catching them off guard.
We're so glad we picked Holly to be our photographer and cannot recommend her enough! Especially to anyone looking for a friendly, kind, relaxed and all round brilliant lady!
- Tasha & Ross
When we were planning our wedding we wanted someone who we felt we already knew and would just fit in with us on our special day.....and along came Holly. We felt a connection with her from her website and made contact, she was just as we had hoped. The engagement shoot was fun and she made us feel very at ease. The pictures were lovely and were an insight into what to expect with our wedding photos. On the day Holly went from room to room capturing us all getting ready ...we hardly noticed she was there. I was surrounded by my daughter and her friends, Holly just blended in with them and became part of the crowd. At the wedding she captured moments none of us were aware of until we saw the photographs, they were moments we will never forget. The rest of the day flew by but Holly recorded it for us whilst we were enjoying the experience. Holly is a very talented young lady with a good eye for that special picture and fun to be with. Thank you for being a part of our special day.
- Paul & Tracey
Holly was brilliant from start to finish. She started with an engagement shoot where she worked out how to make my future husband and I feel at ease and not awkward in front of the camera - it made a big difference on the day!
When the wedding day came, she was as enthusiastic as ever. Her enthusiasm is infectious! She moved amongst everyone taking photos of the venue and capturing special moments between people without ever getting in the way. Many of our guests said how lovely she was and we all gave her a round of applause during the speeches.
She sent us the photos after we got back from honeymoon and they looked brilliant! She knows how to do things with focus and how to emphasise details and colours to say something special in each photo. There's so much emotion and storytelling in the pictures she takes, some make us laugh, some make us sigh in a warm and happy way. All of them take us back to the day in a wonderful way. Thanks for everything Holly!
- Ian & Stephen
Holly is an amazing photographer! We have so many lovely photos from our wedding day last month that we will cherish forever! We have recommended Holly to all our friends and family! Everyone has complimented on how stunning the photos look. Massive Thank you!
- Tom & Simone
Holly is professional, friendly and takes a huge amount of pride in her role as well as putting 100% in to the couples that she photographs. From day 1 when we met with her she listened and took on everything that we wanted from our day and more and helped us both relax considering we are not a couple who are not use to being in front of the camera!!
From our engagement shoot to on our wedding day she darted around everywhere and captured every single moment and emotion. She just blended in with the rest of our guests and was a huge part of our whole day and caught moments that we are going to be able to look back on and cherish forever! Holly just gets involved and knows how and what she wants to capture to tell our story. Every single image just floods us back with memories of our day! Along with all of this the presentation of the memory stick in the beautiful box and the album are amazing!
We highly recommend Holly as a photographer and excited to keep up with her work into the future!
Huge thank you Holly!
- Jamie & Dani
Picking Holly (and Lana) to photograph our wedding was by far one of the best decisions we made! Unique and characterful pictures all shot beautifully. Some photographers just take pictures, but with Holly you get an emotive snapshot that truly encapsulates the moment.
- Tom & Kelly
Holly is an amazing photographer and lady.
She didn't have an easy time with us, due to my Gran's health issues and our situation, but that didn't phase her. She didn't have a lot of room or time to prepare and then last minute we had to change plans, but Holly was so understanding and helpful. She was honest, patient and just lovely. She listened and understood and just worked with what she had... I think most photographers would have walked away. But luckily she stayed.
She managed to turn the photos round in an amazing quick time and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone. She captured some amazing photos that made us all shed a tear. You can really feel how much we love gran in her photos and they are just fantastic.
Thank you Holly from all of us.
You've made some memories that we wont forget and we can never ever thank you enough for what you did.
-Yessica Turner
We were recommended Holly from another professional photographer & we are very glad that he did! Holly made us feel very relaxed about getting in front of the camera; having an engagement shoot prior let us all get to know each other better. We were luckily enough to also have Lana as a second shooter on the day & would advise other couples to do the same (we got a load more shots of the day & she was able to catch those extra moments while we were off posing with Holly) Holly is open to try new ideas with the photos you want & is very creative at getting those perfect shots. We fell in love with our photos & the presentation box that the USB comes in is so cute; a great way to keep all the memories of the day safe.
- Adam & Kirsty
Holly was an absolute joy and pleasure work with. Her photography and personality were very much in tune with the chilled vibe of the day that we wanted. We are so thrilled with the moments that Holly captured. Holly we are so so pleased we chose you as our photographer! Thanks so so much!
- Jade & Marc
Holly was fantastic from the start. Takes pride in all of her work. She was very easy going and made us comfortable from day one, a must have for those who like us hate having our photo taken. Produced some amazing photos shared on a USB and a photo album. Highly recommended.
- Poppy & Guy
We decided to go with Holly as our wedding photographer as she was so friendly and relaxed about everything, I wanted someone we felt really comfortable with and she fitted this perfectly! Holly took hundreds of beautiful photos without being in our faces, we sometimes didn't even realise she was there but she managed to get some beautiful shots, her photos really give a feel for the day and capture all the little details and emotions. Thank you Holly for all your hard work and for being so kind, you did a wonderful job!
- Mr & Mrs Axford
Holly was absolutely amazing from the moment that we contacted her. She put everyone at ease so well at our wedding, and made the part that people usually dread really enjoyable! All anyone had for her were positive words about how she engaged with guests - and we couldn't believe some of the shots she got of the speeches/ceremony as we didn’t at any point see her taking them, which meant they were much more natural than we were expecting! We were very happy with Holly from the start, but the time where she really blew us away was after the wedding. Our photos were beautifully presented to us on a USB stick with in a personalised leather case. When it came to the physical album, she was so patient with our ridiculous demands for what we wanted, and the final result was exactly what we wanted. Holly was so attentive and incredibly fair with the costs as well – she really went above and beyond with our album and it is absolutely perfect. All in all we are delighted with the service that we got and would 100% recommend Holly to anyone who wants a friendly, professional and unique photographer who will dedicates much time as it takes to understand your wishes and see them through!
- Mr & Mrs Stockley
We booked Holly for our wedding photography and so glad we did. Everything was easy and smooth throughout. We had a lovely pre wedding shoot which put us both at ease. Our photos are wonderful and we would recommend Holly to anyone. Thanks again!
- Bex & Tiff
Holly is an amazing photographer! She is so professional and all the photos she took look fab! She took beautiful photos of every single person on our wedding, she worked so hard. Thank you so much.. You gave us the best present which is beautiful memories.
- Stuart & Paulina
After meeting Holly at a bridal fair, we knew she was the photographer we wanted! So nice, friendly, chatty and bubbly, we knew we'd get on with her well and not feel like she was "intruding". We looked at some of her work and loved it! Exactly what we wanted, not loads of posed, fake, forced shots. Holly was excellent at snapping all the things that mattered without us even noticing! She caught so many moments of our wedding that we didn't even know had happened! The shots are beautiful and totally natural. Many of our guests even thought she was a guest herself as she just mingled with everyone, chatting and being lovely, but mainly doing an absolutely brilliant job! The fact you get so many images on a USB stick is a great idea, we can print what we want when we want, pass round to family and keep them all forever! Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times Holly!
- Jenni & Kevin
Holly was recommended to us, and from the start it was clear that we would enjoy working with her. She has a lovely friendly and supportive approach, and a great talent with which she captured the essence of our relationship and wedding beautifully. Her attention to detail was key, but carried out in a delicate and unassuming way. She is a lovely lady to have with you on such a potentially stressful day. Thank you Holly!
- Sarah & Nick
We were recommended Holly by a family member, and she was fantastic and perfect for our special day. She met with us beforehand and listened to our needs, wants, and gave us realistic expectations. On the day she was attentive and knew how to make us feel comfortable to take photos. She was so friendly and blended in with our wedding party seamlessly. We highly recommend her for any wedding or photo shoot!
- Mr & Mrs May
We discovered Holly at a bridal fair, we were both drawn to her friendly smile and down to earth attitude. After chatting we noticed her fantastic pictures and the brilliant way she presents them after the event. We had an amazing wedding day and Holly has captured every aspect of it. She was never intrusive and yet she has captured perfect images throughout; be it the pre planned schedule, or the on the fly pictures of those amazing moments you might have missed yourself! Holly has now presented us with our photos, we love the usb stick and the presentation box it comes in and are proud to display it and all the hundreds of superb photos she has taken."
- Phil & Gemma
What an amazing experience having Holly as our Wedding Photographer! We got everything we wanted and more. She is not only professional but very laid back in her approach. Our guests didn't even realise Holly was the Photographer, she blended in so well that they thought she was just one of our family. Overall we couldn't recommend Holly highly enough... Absolutely fantastic photos that captured our wedding perfectly. We also recommend getting the photo book of the day if you can, it's has come out astonishingly amazing!! Also it is a really good way to keep the memories in a hard copy to treasure forever. Thank you so much Holly.. Amazing stuff!
- Mr. & Mrs Pyke
Wow. Wow. WOW! Holly is an amazing, creative photographer who respected all of our wishes for our wedding day. We wanted natural, captured "moment" shots & Holly delivered on all fronts. The day itself was fantastic & that's thanks to Holly's involvement. She's extremely professional, dedicated & brilliant... just brilliant! We love all of our Wedding Photos & would have Holly take all of our photos in a heartbeat! We cannot recommend her style & professionalism enough.
- Hayley & Stephen
Our experience with Holly has been amazing. She has captured the most important times of our lives together, my baby bump, our family and newborn baby boy, our engagement and finally our wedding day. Holly is professional, easy to get on with, and has made each of the photo shoots we have had with her fun and relaxed. Thank you Holly you have been fantastic and your work is amazing!
- Lisa & Allan Bridges
Holly is a fantastic and unique photographer. We met her at a bridal fair 18 months before our wedding and was drawn to her by her easy going personality and friendliness. From that day forward, she was a gem to work with. Helping us with what may look good and when it come to the day it was if she wasn't even there at times. She took loads of amazing photos without being intrusive. Holly has now presented us with our USB stick loaded with great pictures in a cute little box. We would very highly recommend holly due to her professionalism and easy going personality.
- Dan & Nikki
We would like to say a massive thank you to Holly Cade for the fabulous photos and professional approach throughout. From the moment we met with Holly until we collected the completed photos on the USB stick in our personalised box we have found her service to be top quality, efficient and friendly. Holly always responded promptly to our emails and calls and kept us updated with the progress of our photos. On the day she was very discreet and many guests have commented that they did not even notice she was there and taking pictures. Holly was also incredibly flexible with fitting in with our requirements and with the weather. The finished photos are fantastic and really captured what we wanted from the day. The fun and relaxed atmosphere are all incorporated in the pictures. We would strongly recommend that if you are getting married or hosting any big event that you hire a professional photographer and you can get none better than Holly Cade.
- Alison & Tony
Holly is an amazing photographer! She is so professional and all the photos she took look excellent. She created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere – not an easy task for those who HATE having their picture taken. The pictures were to be used on our company website and Holly was able to create exactly what we were looking for. We would recommend her to anyone!
- Talent Crew
Working with Holly was great! I was preparing for a theatre tour and needed promotional photography, and after friend recommended her, I booked an hour long session. It was brilliant! I'm absolutely delighted with the final photos, her mix of professionalism and fun opened up a load of different image ideas, helping to give me a lot of different routes to go down to promote my theatre productions. Holly is a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of excellent photography, and hilarious conversations!
- Nye Russell-Thompson
Having seen some of Holly's work before, we knew she could capture the moment! For our wedding we didn't particularly want many posed photos of us or our bridal party and instead asked for photos that just caught the day as it happened. Holly did such an amazing job from beginning to end of doing this, every photo she took shows real emotion. Easygoing, creative and happy to go about her business we truly never noticed holly snapping away whilst we enjoyed our day. Each time we go through our album produced by Holly we notice something about a photo we hadn't seen before and each time it makes us smile or laugh more. Thank you for perfectly capturing the happiness and love of the best day of our lives.
- Andrew & Wendy
Yet again, Holly has exceeded herself! we have just received our photos from our recent family shoot and we where overjoyed with the final pieces. We will treasure these photos forever. I cannot recommend Holly enough - completely professional throughout the shoot, made us feel comfortable and our one year old son was totally at ease. If anyone is looking for a fantastic Photographer... Holly Cade is the one you are looking for.
- Tori & Paul
After seeing the photos taken by Holly of my daughters Christening, no one can deny that she has amazing skills and takes amazing photos. I'm just glad she could come and join us on our special day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, and if we are lucky enough to have another special event we would love to ask her to take more photos. So thank you Holly, thank you for capturing our daughters day so perfectly.
- Laura Savident
The photo shoot that I had with Holly has been nothing less than full of professional attitude and a lot of fun! She has a great attitude with any mishaps encountered and directing the images, truly impressive passion and enthusiasm, with a great eye for detail and overall an absolute sweetheart, making sure she gets exactly what she is looking for and ensuring involved parties feel comfortable. She certainly is a rare gem in photography work, and I wish the best in her endeavour and see her work progress further, which will not be a problem with a passion, professionalism and attitude like Holly's!
- Sah Reinka Starr
Holly being a close family friend, we knew she was perfect for the job. Holly captured every incredible moment of our wedding day in 2011. Holly made us feel extremely relaxed and we had lot's of giggles throughout the day,which made our day feel very natural. Holly is extremely talented and professional and highly recommend. I feel very privileged to have had holly as our photographer, we are extremely proud of her and wish her all the best in her future. We cant thank you enough for capturing our perfect day!
- James & Kerrie
Both photo shoots that I have had with Holly so far have been nothing but fun, with tremendous results! Not only is Holly great at things like direction, but I was truly impressed with her enthusiasm regarding the creative aspect of the shoots - she certainly knew exactly what she wanted, and even bought her own props to ensure that we got the best photos! Holly is one of my favourite photographers to work with, always making sure that I am comfortable and happy, both when posing and looking at the photos afterwards! With her highly enthusiastic, personable and professional approach, I am certain that Holly will go far with her photographic talent!
- Englane
Holly Cade produced some fantastic photographs of our Grandchildren and transferred them to Canvas. She came to our house with her equipment and set up a background for the photographs. She was very professional and patient as our 18 month old grandson was a handful and our 2month old granddaughter did not wake up during the taking of the photographs but she still managed to produce superb results that we will treasure forever. Holly has a natural manner with children that puts them and the parents at ease and is able to create wonderful memories in the form of pictures. We would highly recommend Holly to anyone who wishes to have any professional photographs taken or memories recorded.

I recently did a photo shoot with Holly Cade in Brick Lane. I am new to modelling and I have to say Holly was very professional from the start, she made me feel comfortable and guided me through the poses which made it easy for me. She is fun, focused, dedicated, and she has an incredible eye for details. I want to do more work with her in the near future.

We cannot recommend Holly enough!

Holly was amazing from the moment we got in touch, always quick to respond and very helpful.
She captured some beautiful moments from our wedding day and we couldn't be happier with the photos. Highly recommended.

Rachel and Ryans wedding, 22nd September 2018. I actually cried when I looked at my daughters wedding photos! They are absolutely stunning! Holly turned up at our house on probably the wettest day of the year with a smile on her face! She put us all at ease and stopped us from worrying. We hired the Old Girl bus and Holly travelled to Ventnor Botanical Gardens with us. Holly took fabulous photos in our house, on the bus and at the venue. The constant rain was no barrier and Holly managed to take some brilliant photos outside. We will treasure these photographs forever. If you want a relaxed friendly photographer who takes natural photos then I can't recommend Holly enough.

We first saw Holly at a wedding fair, upon jumping her with random questions we could instantly tell she has a love and skill for what she does. We were quick to choose her after looking at her examples and albums, her package came with an engagement shoot, which we chose a frequent date spot at Shanklin Chine where she captured some beautiful candid shots of us which being a pair who photograph badly on purpose was brilliant.
Holly was good at keeping in touch and was very professional, we received our first shoots photos within a short space of time and we loved them! We even chose one to have as our guest book and allow guests to sign through out our big day.
We met with Holly once before our big day and went over timings and our photo list so we knew how our day would run and what shots were needed, and she was able to split the photos so guests weren't waiting around, and took me and my partner off for some lovely couple photos, her excitement over a big white wall was endearing! Our guests told us she blended in well, and said she was brilliant and friendly, and had an eye for catching them off guard.
We're so glad we picked Holly to be our photographer and cannot recommend her enough! Especially to anyone looking for a friendly, kind, relaxed and all round brilliant lady!

When we were planning our wedding we wanted someone who we felt we already knew and would just fit in with us on our special day.....and along came Holly. We felt a connection with her from her website and made contact, she was just as we had hoped. The engagement shoot was fun and she made us feel very at ease. The pictures were lovely and were an insight into what to expect with our wedding photos. On the day Holly went from room to room capturing us all getting ready ...we hardly noticed she was there. I was surrounded by my daughter and her friends, Holly just blended in with them and became part of the crowd. At the wedding she captured moments none of us were aware of until we saw the photographs, they were moments we will never forget. The rest of the day flew by but Holly recorded it for us whilst we were enjoying the experience. Holly is a very talented young lady with a good eye for that special picture and fun to be with. Thank you for being a part of our special day.
- Paul & Tracey
Holly was brilliant from start to finish. She started with an engagement shoot where she worked out how to make my future husband and I feel at ease and not awkward in front of the camera - it made a big difference on the day!
When the wedding day came, she was as enthusiastic as ever. Her enthusiasm is infectious! She moved amongst everyone taking photos of the venue and capturing special moments between people without ever getting in the way. Many of our guests said how lovely she was and we all gave her a round of applause during the speeches.
She sent us the photos after we got back from honeymoon and they looked brilliant! She knows how to do things with focus and how to emphasise details and colours to say something special in each photo. There's so much emotion and storytelling in the pictures she takes, some make us laugh, some make us sigh in a warm and happy way. All of them take us back to the day in a wonderful way. Thanks for everything Holly!
- Ian & Stephen
Holly is an amazing photographer! We have so many lovely photos from our wedding day last month that we will cherish forever! We have recommended Holly to all our friends and family! Everyone has complimented on how stunning the photos look. Massive Thank you!
- Tom & Simone
Holly is professional, friendly and takes a huge amount of pride in her role as well as putting 100% in to the couples that she photographs. From day 1 when we met with her she listened and took on everything that we wanted from our day and more and helped us both relax considering we are not a couple who are not use to being in front of the camera!!
From our engagement shoot to on our wedding day she darted around everywhere and captured every single moment and emotion. She just blended in with the rest of our guests and was a huge part of our whole day and caught moments that we are going to be able to look back on and cherish forever! Holly just gets involved and knows how and what she wants to capture to tell our story. Every single image just floods us back with memories of our day! Along with all of this the presentation of the memory stick in the beautiful box and the album are amazing!
We highly recommend Holly as a photographer and excited to keep up with her work into the future!
Huge thank you Holly!
- Jamie & Dani
Picking Holly (and Lana) to photograph our wedding was by far one of the best decisions we made! Unique and characterful pictures all shot beautifully. Some photographers just take pictures, but with Holly you get an emotive snapshot that truly encapsulates the moment.
- Tom & Kelly
Holly is an amazing photographer and lady.
She didn't have an easy time with us, due to my Gran's health issues and our situation, but that didn't phase her. She didn't have a lot of room or time to prepare and then last minute we had to change plans, but Holly was so understanding and helpful. She was honest, patient and just lovely. She listened and understood and just worked with what she had... I think most photographers would have walked away. But luckily she stayed.
She managed to turn the photos round in an amazing quick time and I would recommend her to absolutely anyone. She captured some amazing photos that made us all shed a tear. You can really feel how much we love gran in her photos and they are just fantastic.
Thank you Holly from all of us.
You've made some memories that we wont forget and we can never ever thank you enough for what you did.
-Yessica Turner
We were recommended Holly from another professional photographer & we are very glad that he did! Holly made us feel very relaxed about getting in front of the camera; having an engagement shoot prior let us all get to know each other better. We were luckily enough to also have Lana as a second shooter on the day & would advise other couples to do the same (we got a load more shots of the day & she was able to catch those extra moments while we were off posing with Holly) Holly is open to try new ideas with the photos you want & is very creative at getting those perfect shots. We fell in love with our photos & the presentation box that the USB comes in is so cute; a great way to keep all the memories of the day safe.
- Adam & Kirsty
Holly was an absolute joy and pleasure work with. Her photography and personality were very much in tune with the chilled vibe of the day that we wanted. We are so thrilled with the moments that Holly captured. Holly we are so so pleased we chose you as our photographer! Thanks so so much!
- Jade & Marc
Holly was fantastic from the start. Takes pride in all of her work. She was very easy going and made us comfortable from day one, a must have for those who like us hate having our photo taken. Produced some amazing photos shared on a USB and a photo album. Highly recommended.
- Poppy & Guy
We decided to go with Holly as our wedding photographer as she was so friendly and relaxed about everything, I wanted someone we felt really comfortable with and she fitted this perfectly! Holly took hundreds of beautiful photos without being in our faces, we sometimes didn't even realise she was there but she managed to get some beautiful shots, her photos really give a feel for the day and capture all the little details and emotions. Thank you Holly for all your hard work and for being so kind, you did a wonderful job!
- Mr & Mrs Axford
Holly was absolutely amazing from the moment that we contacted her. She put everyone at ease so well at our wedding, and made the part that people usually dread really enjoyable! All anyone had for her were positive words about how she engaged with guests - and we couldn't believe some of the shots she got of the speeches/ceremony as we didn’t at any point see her taking them, which meant they were much more natural than we were expecting! We were very happy with Holly from the start, but the time where she really blew us away was after the wedding. Our photos were beautifully presented to us on a USB stick with in a personalised leather case. When it came to the physical album, she was so patient with our ridiculous demands for what we wanted, and the final result was exactly what we wanted. Holly was so attentive and incredibly fair with the costs as well – she really went above and beyond with our album and it is absolutely perfect. All in all we are delighted with the service that we got and would 100% recommend Holly to anyone who wants a friendly, professional and unique photographer who will dedicates much time as it takes to understand your wishes and see them through!
- Mr & Mrs Stockley
We booked Holly for our wedding photography and so glad we did. Everything was easy and smooth throughout. We had a lovely pre wedding shoot which put us both at ease. Our photos are wonderful and we would recommend Holly to anyone. Thanks again!
- Bex & Tiff
Holly is an amazing photographer! She is so professional and all the photos she took look fab! She took beautiful photos of every single person on our wedding, she worked so hard. Thank you so much.. You gave us the best present which is beautiful memories.
- Stuart & Paulina
After meeting Holly at a bridal fair, we knew she was the photographer we wanted! So nice, friendly, chatty and bubbly, we knew we'd get on with her well and not feel like she was "intruding". We looked at some of her work and loved it! Exactly what we wanted, not loads of posed, fake, forced shots. Holly was excellent at snapping all the things that mattered without us even noticing! She caught so many moments of our wedding that we didn't even know had happened! The shots are beautiful and totally natural. Many of our guests even thought she was a guest herself as she just mingled with everyone, chatting and being lovely, but mainly doing an absolutely brilliant job! The fact you get so many images on a USB stick is a great idea, we can print what we want when we want, pass round to family and keep them all forever! Thank you, thank you, thank you a million times Holly!
- Jenni & Kevin
Holly was recommended to us, and from the start it was clear that we would enjoy working with her. She has a lovely friendly and supportive approach, and a great talent with which she captured the essence of our relationship and wedding beautifully. Her attention to detail was key, but carried out in a delicate and unassuming way. She is a lovely lady to have with you on such a potentially stressful day. Thank you Holly!
- Sarah & Nick
We were recommended Holly by a family member, and she was fantastic and perfect for our special day. She met with us beforehand and listened to our needs, wants, and gave us realistic expectations. On the day she was attentive and knew how to make us feel comfortable to take photos. She was so friendly and blended in with our wedding party seamlessly. We highly recommend her for any wedding or photo shoot!
- Mr & Mrs May
We discovered Holly at a bridal fair, we were both drawn to her friendly smile and down to earth attitude. After chatting we noticed her fantastic pictures and the brilliant way she presents them after the event. We had an amazing wedding day and Holly has captured every aspect of it. She was never intrusive and yet she has captured perfect images throughout; be it the pre planned schedule, or the on the fly pictures of those amazing moments you might have missed yourself! Holly has now presented us with our photos, we love the usb stick and the presentation box it comes in and are proud to display it and all the hundreds of superb photos she has taken."
- Phil & Gemma
What an amazing experience having Holly as our Wedding Photographer! We got everything we wanted and more. She is not only professional but very laid back in her approach. Our guests didn't even realise Holly was the Photographer, she blended in so well that they thought she was just one of our family. Overall we couldn't recommend Holly highly enough... Absolutely fantastic photos that captured our wedding perfectly. We also recommend getting the photo book of the day if you can, it's has come out astonishingly amazing!! Also it is a really good way to keep the memories in a hard copy to treasure forever. Thank you so much Holly.. Amazing stuff!
- Mr. & Mrs Pyke
Wow. Wow. WOW! Holly is an amazing, creative photographer who respected all of our wishes for our wedding day. We wanted natural, captured "moment" shots & Holly delivered on all fronts. The day itself was fantastic & that's thanks to Holly's involvement. She's extremely professional, dedicated & brilliant... just brilliant! We love all of our Wedding Photos & would have Holly take all of our photos in a heartbeat! We cannot recommend her style & professionalism enough.
- Hayley & Stephen
Our experience with Holly has been amazing. She has captured the most important times of our lives together, my baby bump, our family and newborn baby boy, our engagement and finally our wedding day. Holly is professional, easy to get on with, and has made each of the photo shoots we have had with her fun and relaxed. Thank you Holly you have been fantastic and your work is amazing!
- Lisa & Allan Bridges
Holly is a fantastic and unique photographer. We met her at a bridal fair 18 months before our wedding and was drawn to her by her easy going personality and friendliness. From that day forward, she was a gem to work with. Helping us with what may look good and when it come to the day it was if she wasn't even there at times. She took loads of amazing photos without being intrusive. Holly has now presented us with our USB stick loaded with great pictures in a cute little box. We would very highly recommend holly due to her professionalism and easy going personality.
- Dan & Nikki
We would like to say a massive thank you to Holly Cade for the fabulous photos and professional approach throughout. From the moment we met with Holly until we collected the completed photos on the USB stick in our personalised box we have found her service to be top quality, efficient and friendly. Holly always responded promptly to our emails and calls and kept us updated with the progress of our photos. On the day she was very discreet and many guests have commented that they did not even notice she was there and taking pictures. Holly was also incredibly flexible with fitting in with our requirements and with the weather. The finished photos are fantastic and really captured what we wanted from the day. The fun and relaxed atmosphere are all incorporated in the pictures. We would strongly recommend that if you are getting married or hosting any big event that you hire a professional photographer and you can get none better than Holly Cade.
- Alison & Tony
Holly is an amazing photographer! She is so professional and all the photos she took look excellent. She created a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere – not an easy task for those who HATE having their picture taken. The pictures were to be used on our company website and Holly was able to create exactly what we were looking for. We would recommend her to anyone!
- Talent Crew
Working with Holly was great! I was preparing for a theatre tour and needed promotional photography, and after friend recommended her, I booked an hour long session. It was brilliant! I'm absolutely delighted with the final photos, her mix of professionalism and fun opened up a load of different image ideas, helping to give me a lot of different routes to go down to promote my theatre productions. Holly is a pleasure to work with, and I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of excellent photography, and hilarious conversations!
- Nye Russell-Thompson
Having seen some of Holly's work before, we knew she could capture the moment! For our wedding we didn't particularly want many posed photos of us or our bridal party and instead asked for photos that just caught the day as it happened. Holly did such an amazing job from beginning to end of doing this, every photo she took shows real emotion. Easygoing, creative and happy to go about her business we truly never noticed holly snapping away whilst we enjoyed our day. Each time we go through our album produced by Holly we notice something about a photo we hadn't seen before and each time it makes us smile or laugh more. Thank you for perfectly capturing the happiness and love of the best day of our lives.
- Andrew & Wendy
Yet again, Holly has exceeded herself! we have just received our photos from our recent family shoot and we where overjoyed with the final pieces. We will treasure these photos forever. I cannot recommend Holly enough - completely professional throughout the shoot, made us feel comfortable and our one year old son was totally at ease. If anyone is looking for a fantastic Photographer... Holly Cade is the one you are looking for.
- Tori & Paul
After seeing the photos taken by Holly of my daughters Christening, no one can deny that she has amazing skills and takes amazing photos. I'm just glad she could come and join us on our special day. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, and if we are lucky enough to have another special event we would love to ask her to take more photos. So thank you Holly, thank you for capturing our daughters day so perfectly.
- Laura Savident
The photo shoot that I had with Holly has been nothing less than full of professional attitude and a lot of fun! She has a great attitude with any mishaps encountered and directing the images, truly impressive passion and enthusiasm, with a great eye for detail and overall an absolute sweetheart, making sure she gets exactly what she is looking for and ensuring involved parties feel comfortable. She certainly is a rare gem in photography work, and I wish the best in her endeavour and see her work progress further, which will not be a problem with a passion, professionalism and attitude like Holly's!
- Sah Reinka Starr
Holly being a close family friend, we knew she was perfect for the job. Holly captured every incredible moment of our wedding day in 2011. Holly made us feel extremely relaxed and we had lot's of giggles throughout the day,which made our day feel very natural. Holly is extremely talented and professional and highly recommend. I feel very privileged to have had holly as our photographer, we are extremely proud of her and wish her all the best in her future. We cant thank you enough for capturing our perfect day!
- James & Kerrie
Both photo shoots that I have had with Holly so far have been nothing but fun, with tremendous results! Not only is Holly great at things like direction, but I was truly impressed with her enthusiasm regarding the creative aspect of the shoots - she certainly knew exactly what she wanted, and even bought her own props to ensure that we got the best photos! Holly is one of my favourite photographers to work with, always making sure that I am comfortable and happy, both when posing and looking at the photos afterwards! With her highly enthusiastic, personable and professional approach, I am certain that Holly will go far with her photographic talent!

Holly Cade produced some fantastic photographs of our Grandchildren and transferred them to Canvas. She came to our house with her equipment and set up a background for the photographs. She was very professional and patient as our 18 month old grandson was a handful and our 2month old granddaughter did not wake up during the taking of the photographs but she still managed to produce superb results that we will treasure forever. Holly has a natural manner with children that puts them and the parents at ease and is able to create wonderful memories in the form of pictures. We would highly recommend Holly to anyone who wishes to have any professional photographs taken or memories recorded.
