Sheryl is fantastic. If you haven’t booked your photographer yet, book her! From the moment we met her, she made us feel as though we’ve known her forever and totally put us at ease 

6 months later and we are still totally blown away with the work she produced for us, some of the photos are on display in our house as a permanent reminder too!
