Dad was a proud man, who had quite an extended family around Australia, and when he passed away recently my brother and two sisters decided we wanted some pictures to send to the rest of the family. At first we were going to get one of his grandkids to do the pictures, but we thought that may be unfair because they were there to celebrate dad's life as well and it would take that away from them.
Then we looked at hiring a Photographer, but we wanted to make sure that they would handle it in a dignified manner, as dad was a very dignified man…..when we spoke to our Funeral Director, they suggested that we look for someone who specialised in funerals and suggested Craig from Funeral Photographer, as he had actually worked in the funeral industry and was very knowledgeable about this whole funeral process.
From the moment we spoke to Craig he was helpful and understanding. His costs were, we believe, more than fair and he assured us that he would undertake dad's funeral photography with care and discretion. On the day he turned up early, met with us and then of course with all that went on we don't remember even seeing him for the rest of the service. Afterwards he found me, said his goodbyes and left. My brother and sisters all said that apart from the initial meeting on the day, they didn't really recall noticing him….but then we were all fairly focussed on the service. About a week later Craig called to say that our pictures were in the mail and that a slide show was on his site for us to look at. I sent the link to the rest of my family and they were thrilled to see it. It's now with all of our family and has provided us a different perspective on the day and made sure we have amazing permanent memories ….thanks again to Craig from Funeral Photographer for all his help!!
