Recommendation for a photographer in Hampshire

Hi

I was wondering if anyone had a recommendation for a reasonably priced (well cheap) photographer who covers South Hampshire.

I am only looking for a few shots as we are both quite camera shy so am not looking for hundreds of photos. (Unless of course you can find a magician who can make us look like the Beckhams rather than a couple of dumpy weebles:rotfl:)

I did contemplate buying a digital SLR but we don't really know anyone who would feel confident to take the pictures.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi

    I have found a really good photographer in South Hampshire. Not only is he reasonably priced, he's a lovely man and helped make us feel at ease because neither of us like having our picture taken. His name is Tim

    He showed us how to stand and pose and just relaxed and reassured us. Another thing he did was make little adjustments like moving my hair so it was sitting right. There's nothing worse than seeing a nice photo that's ruined because of something little like your fringe going funny!

    He also showed us pictures on the screen of his camera as we were going along, which was really encouraging because they looked amazing and nothing like we expected.

    So far we've had portraits done and we've had a pre-wedding shoot to practice our poses and decide on what we'd like on the day. I'm suprised to say I'm really looking forward to seeing the photos from today because I look far more attractive in the photo's than in real life!

    Anyway here's the link, see what you think

    Thank you for all your replies - have had a quick look. Will have a better look when I get five minutes peace and quiet from the kids
