It’s difficult to know where to start! There are several reasons why choosing Corbin as our wedding photographer was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. The photographs and album – these surpassed our expectations in quality, originality, style and empathy. Corbin took the time and made the effort to understand us as a couple, what we wanted and how best to deliver that, without us even realizing she was doing it. We were thrilled with the shots, but also the way she became part of the experience, managing to capture all those special moments timelessly, without affecting the running of the day, in fact her humor, energy and kindness meant our day ran more smoothly than we could have hoped. We married in Italy on one of the hottest days of the year in venues with no air conditioning and a procession up cobbled streets, which could’ve been a recipe for disaster – I really don’t know how she managed to produce the photos she did, with such grace. All our guests commented on how lovely she was and then when they saw the photos everyone was blown away by how amazing they were. Throughout the whole process of planning, pre wedding and selecting images and layout of the albums she was patient, understanding and really went beyond the call of duty to help us ensure we ended up with the album of our dreams. We feel we made a friend aswell through the whole process and would recommend her without reservation to anyone who wants a photographer with integrity, talent and impeccable attention to detail. Our wedding would not have been the same without her and we would love to book her again – just need a suitable occasion and we definitely will!

Thank you so much for our beautiful photographs, they are everything we had hoped for and more! For me personally, after finding my gown, the next most important detail was choosing our photographer. Working in photography and printing myself and loving the media so much, we were looking for someone who could offer us something really special. When we first saw your website, we knew instinctively that you were the right choice and we were not disappointed! Your work is so beautiful and considered, with subtle lighting and interesting framing; your wedding photography also provides a work of art. Having you with us sharing our day was such a pleasure too, throughout the day you were professional, discreet and completely unassuming, it felt like having one of my girlfriends around! The photographs perfectly capture the romance of our wedding day and it has been wonderful spending time looking through them and re-living all the special moments, we can’t wait to share them with our friends and family!

Where do I start? From the moment I spoke to Corbin I felt comfortable. She was kind, warm, and very easy to deal with. She took the time to learn about our style and what we were looking for as a couple. I wasn’t sure what we wanted as far as pictures on the wedding day but I knew after looking through Corbin’s work I didn’t need to worry. I loved her style and the way she captured the emotions of the day. We met with Corbin a few days before the wedding, which took place in Lake Como, Italy and she set my mind at ease! Corbin had already visited the venue and had ideas of best places to capture our moments. On the wedding day Corbin was barely noticeable, she really blended into the background but at the same time took the most amazing pictures! Everyone loved her, I am still getting compliments at how professional and friendly she was. It took Mark and I some time to decide which pictures we wanted for our album, as there were so many lovely ones to choose from. From looking through the pictures it seemed as though she was in all places at once. She didn’t miss a thing, which was great! When we got our album we were amazed. Not only was it apiece of art but also it surpassed our expectations. We absolutely love it! Now, every time we look through the photos we are taken back to that wonderful day. Thank you Corbin for not only adding to our day but also making it possible for us to cherish those moments for the rest of our life.

Choosing the perfect photographer for our wedding was so important to my husband and I; especially since we would be capturing our special day in Paris, France! We were afraid that our budget and location would mean that we would have to compromise on artistic style or finding the ideal photographer…but discovering Corbin was like a dream come true for us. She was flexible with our plans and understanding of our vision. She blended right in like a long-lost family member at our wedding events and was so easy to work with. Not only was she organized, punctual and professional, but she was a fun and easy-going personality. Having our photographs taken by Corbin all over Paris was one of the most amazing things we have ever done! She put the both of us right at ease and had such a great eye; she was full of creative suggestions and ideas without ever being pushy. Choosing Corbin as our wedding photographer was one of the best choices we could ever make. Our friends and family cannot stop raving about the recordings she created for our special day. We hope that we can continue to work with Corbin for the future milestones in our lives!

The world is a lucky place to have Corbin's photographs in it. What a delight it is to work with her, but also just to see the beautiful imagery she creates. It has been a pleasure showcasing her imagery in our pages over the years and to know that so many couples will treasure the memories she has documented for decades (and generations) to come.
