barebonephoto weddings

I want you to know how amazing the photos are. You've captured so many moments and made them look warm and timeless. The colour combinations are some of our favourites, they are muted but vibrant, they show movement while time stands still, they emphasize a real group not posed individuals... You put on print how we feel and see each other, reminded us of what brought us to the day and sealed forever probably one of the momentous days in our lives to this point. Seeing them has given me the sense that it was "our day" and extinguished any thoughts of it not being about us. Our wedding album feels like a reflection of us which is anything but typical... If you've ever had a slight doubt... There is no question in our minds - you really are great at what you do.

You did a wonderful job on our wedding day. You gave us the time with our large, overwhelming families and made them feel comfortable. The pictures were amazing, we especially loved the candid shots you took. Nothing's better than being able to flip through a wedding album and not having to say a word to explain what's going on because the pictures say it all for you. All the excitement, the love, the joy came through in every picture. It was a shame you weren't there for the entire day from the crack of dawn to the end of the night to capture every moment.
Thank you so much. We still are showing off our wedding album to friends and it's the envy of many who also got married last summer!

Emma is an amazing and talented photographer. We were amazed at some of the shots, we didn't even remember her being in front of us, she was able to take the shots without being in the focus for all of our guests.
I had imagined a shot while driving past an old church, Emma was not only able to give me my dream picture but she was able to capture that one moment to make it an amazing shot that everyone talks about. We have so many unique shots, using different types of film, she was able to give us a unique memory for our special day. Emma went above and beyond to make us happy, I don't think there are many photographers that would stop traffic for us!!

Emma did the best job ever for my wedding photos. She captured many moments and people that mean so much to us. I also loved how she took many candid shots of us, they always turn out the best. Whenever I hear anyone is getting married the first thing out of my mouth is "Do you have a photographer? Let me tell you about Emma Smallbone. She is just fantastic!" Thank you Emma for such great pictures and memories that we will have forever.

Emma, you did such a beautiful job on our photos. You really did make us feel so comfortable and you took some really interesting and creative shots. We've had so many compliments on the quality, composition and style of the photos. Our only regret is that we didn't have you stay longer to take more photos.

Besides choosing each other, the best decision we made for our wedding was picking Emma to be our photographer. From the very first meeting we felt like we were in great hands and our confidence was well placed. Her photos vividly capture the happiness of our day, from the formal aspects of the wedding to the unplanned surprises. And Emma saw things we missed, so looking over the album she organized was like finding undiscovered treasures. The mix of traditional and creative composition & colour and black and white film make our wedding album as special and unique as our day. Her candid style allowed us to just enjoy our time and everyone who looks at our photos says Emma's work perfectly reflects us as couple. We could not be happier with how the pictures turned out, in fact, we've already recommended barebonephoto to our friends! Thank-you so much Emma, for the beautiful photographs from a beautiful day.
