A little bit about me… I’ve always had a passion for photography since I was five. More…

I would just like to thank Kim for all her help! Unfortunately we had to rearrange our wedding day twice due to covid and finally got to get married on 18.09.21 on our third date. Kim worked with us to ensure she captured the type of photos we wanted. Kim also works so hard behind the scenes leading upto, including and beyond the day itself. Kim captured so many photos and edits the photos behind the scenes. We have all our photos saved onto a lovely heart shaped USB stick. Kim then also worked so hard in designing our wedding album and talked us all through the options. We could not be happier with how our wedding was captured and our photo album. We also used Kim's videographer Clay and Gemma so we also have amazing videography as well as photography. They work so well together and we are incredibly lucky to have all of these memories captured. We would 100% recommend and thank you Kim once again!
DoodleShots are amazing at what they do! They are professional, approachable and they made mine and my wife's special day, one to remember. Kim takes real care in what she does best thank you again. We have so many special memories captured so beautifully! Kim also designed our wedding album and it is just perfect.We really couldn't be happier and 100% recommend!
We chose Doodleshots to photograph our wedding in September 2021. Kim and Katy were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They took a lovely mix of natural and formal photos, capturing every moment. Our wedding had alot of wacky details which they embraced whole heartedly which is shown in our photos! They seemlessly blended into the background throughout the day taking sneaky photos without being intrusive to the guests. Kim was understanding and flexible during the uncertainty of covid restrictions and rearranged wedding dates, which really put us at ease in the lead up to the wedding. The album and video montage we received at the end of it all are truly beautiful and will be treasured forever. Thank you so much Doodleshots!
DoodlesShots Photography were amazing, we had to postpone on 3 occasions finally getting married on our fourth and Kim was nothing but accommodating.
Great communication throughout the 2 years and always open to any questions we may have had.
Both Kim and Kate were great on the day and captured some amazing moments leading up to the ceremony with some lovely natural photos, also their personalities were a perfect mix for both us brides and bridesmaid.
Overall the pictures couldnโt have been better, they listened to the type of photos we wanted and got them spot on. We have just received our wedding album and we honestly love it, for any couple the wedding day can feel a bit of a blur after so to have this to look back on just bought all the emotions back of the day and is just the best reminder to the most perfect day.
I canโt express or put into words how highly I recommend DoodleShots Photography, they beat all expectations and most importantly made the whole day flow so effortlessly.
Thanks you so much,
Laura & Carley
Well... I donโt even know where to start. Kim & Katy not only captured the most special day of our lives but also MADE it the most special day. We had a meeting with Kim a few days prior to our wedding, we spoke about the plan of the day and timings. Kim took all our suggestions in and made sure herself and Katy was there to capture the moments, however when we received our pictures not only had they captured the pictures we asked for they had also captured EVERY memory that was made that day. Every picture has a story to tell and we couldnโt be more grateful to always have the memories in our album. Kim spent the time going through the layout of our album and was more then accommodating when moving pictures around, changing the colour to black and white and much more, she made the album a story to read with no words, no words are needed as the amazing pictures tell the story.
Now, I have to praise Kim. From the freak out I had getting out of the transport when a few family members was waiting outside our venue to the freak out about not being able to put my veil in my hair. Kim made sure that I stayed hidden before I made my big entrance and also came to the rescue to put my veil in. I believe she also helped my husband and the grooms party to do their ties, should probably have had a trial run but hey ho Kim was there to help.
Kim & Katy, we cannot express our thanks for the hard work, time, effort and all the memories made. We will definitely be coming back and if anyone is considering using Doodleshots, consider no more! This is THE BEST photography I have ever seen.
Love Hayden & Abby x

SNEAK PEEK - So happy to see Laurie & David get to have their day after far too long waiting.
Couples normally say that their day goes so quickly and that's why it's such a great job to be able to capture their day so they can look back on it for years to come.
What a great day it was too, especially with the addition of the most adorable well behaved Alpacas I've ever met ๐ฆ๐

The Master Photographers Association have a new judge for the monthly critiques and they're pretty scrupulous. Only one Highly Commended was dished out this month, but luckily for me it was for this shot of the lovely @tracey.hubble.5 & Graeme taken on their wedding day at Cromwell Manor. The @themasterphotographers have asked me to do another 'Behind the image' interview next month, so I get to be nervous all over again until then ๐

Spent a couple of weeks converting my backdrop stand and upcycling old frames to create our new wedding fair display. There was some moaning from the Cheebs about all the sewing I enrolled her for, but it looked pretty decent at yesterday's excellent show at @hisouthend
Looking forward to our next fair at #juddsfollyhotel next month. Thanks to all our gorgeous couples for adorning our display ๐

Lindsay won't mind me saying we didn't have much space to use for her family shoot but they rocked it non the less. Family shoots in the comfort of your own home, especially nice when little on can stay in their comfort zone and you don't have to pack all those baby bags to go somewhere ๐ more details of our portrait shoots can be found on our website - https://www.doodleshotsphotography.com/portrait-photography-southend/

xX YES! A SILVER ๐ Xx
I was really hoping for a highly commended this month in The Master Photographer's critique but done one better and bagged a silver. I watched it in the car (parked) whilst doing the school run and actually done a fist pump & an out loud 'Yes' to myself like some bad 80's film (although all 80's films are good in my mind) Anyhoo...Thank you Martin Strivens for all your invaluable constructive criticism & kind comments over the last few months.
Thanks Sara & Kane for wanting to have a laugh xx
