The way she made my young children feel so comfortable to be themselves in front of her camera was simply amazing. She captured some of the best moments when we didn’t even know she was clicking, which produced the most amazing and natural photos for us. I honestly could not recommend Emily highly enough. Our shoot was relaxed, comfortable, but above all, it was FUN!! Thanks so much Em for giving us memories that will last a life time!!!!!” Kelly Wilkins  “Emily is so amazing!! It has been 10 years since we had family photos taken and I am absolutely astounded with Emily and her ability to capture the beauty within. I am so glad she captured our son’s graduation and that we took the opportunity to get family shots. I am so proud and humbled by this special and momentous occasion and thrilled that we will have these memories forever. Keep being you Em, you have something special in your heart and in your minds eye to capture the inner beauty of your subjects. Highest regards for this beautiful lady!!!” Sheri Wass  “Emily is the best photographer ever! You did such an amazing job with our wedding photos! And you are so awesome to work with!

As I’m the one who usually takes the photos of the kids it is so wonderful to have some photos of our whole family together, with me in it! These photos mean the world to me. Thanks Emily!!” Joanne Knobel  “Andy was the photographer for our wedding. He was incredibly professional, friendly, and happy to listen to exactly what kind of photography we wanted done for our wedding. We loved that he took the time to figure out what would work best for us when we were uncertain, and that he understood our vision so perfectly. Andy did an amazing job on the day, working under incredibly trying conditions (thanks to the worst storm in Melbourne in 100 years!) but still managed to deliver stunning photos. After the wedding he put together an absolutely beautiful photo album for us - he was careful to note our likes and dislikes and put together something that we will treasure forever. We were very impressed with his skill and work ethic, and heartily recommend him as a photographer.” Emilie & Miles Cederman-Haysom  “I have contracted Andrew Jarvie for several shoots both domestically and internationally for both editorial and advertising shoots. His professionalism and attention to detail are second to none. He executes a brief with a surgeon’s precision and is a pleasure to deal with in the post production process. He also has a great creative eye which makes his work standout.” David Wasserman Managing Director Wasamedia Pty Ltd  "Andrew Jarvie came very highly recommended and lived up to expectations.
