Thank you Craig for helping us preserve the memory of my son's funeral service recently. I highly recommend Funeral Photographer if anyone requires a photographer on the day of such a solemn event. Very understanding and caring, with a fantastic result at the end…Thanks again

My father passed away at the grand age of 95, and with so many children, grandchildren and great grandchildren there was always going to be the chance that one or more would not make dads service. My daughter was in London and dad had insisted that she not interrupt her studies to return for the service, so we decided to have the funeral photographed. The Funeral Directors recommended Funeral Photographer for the job and we organised it all through them. On the day Craig introduced himself to us and then spoke with the Funeral Directors to get the layout of the service and then set about his job. I must say that he was very discrete and I didn't really notice him but when I got the pictures they were fantastic. I sent them to my daughter the same day that I received them and she said that she was very happy to be able to share in the day. What a great service and fabulous idea to have a photographer

The passing of a loved one is a trying time, and nothing seems easy at all. Between the Funeral Directors, the clergy and the family, there is a lot of hard work to do to make it all flow. One of the things the family all wanted was to record the occasion so that we could have a lasting memory. I searched the internet and found Funeral Photographer and spoke to Craig. He was very caring and sensitive and did an amazing job for us. We are very happy with the photos and they now form a part of our memories of the day….thanks Craig for making a hard day just a little better

Funerals are a difficult time no matter what and to have to arrange it all was very stressful. I decided that my brother deserved the very best though and one of the things I decided on was to have a photographer at his service, but not any photographer, I wanted someone who specialised in funerals.
I had been to a funeral earlier this year and noticed that they had a photographer and I asked the family who they had chosen and were they happy. They told me that they had found Craig from Funeral Photographer online and he was excellent value for money as well as very experienced in the funeral field. They sent me some samples of the photos he had captured for them and I was sold there and then.
I am so glad that we chose to use Craigs service, the photos are gorgeous and capture the feeling and the mood of the day perfectly…..and I have shared the slide show he did with everyone and they all agree…fantastic job done.

My family and I had to organise my fathers funeral recently , and I was asked to sort out a way for my niece who was overseas, to be able to, in some way join in the celebration of dads life and his funeral. I had originally thought that I would just locate a photographer who was in the area. When I searched on Google, I noticed an ad that had a number of very positive reviews. That was for Funeral Photographer. I called and spoke to Craig and he was available. His pricing was great and with the experience of having been in the funeral industry himself I felt that he was the ideal choice. And I was correct. On the day we met with Craig and he set about his job with discretion and professionalism.
When we received the images from Craig we were most impressed with his eye for capturing the most poignant parts of the service, and my niece sent word that she felt like she had been there after receiving the photos we sent. A very big thanks to Craig from Funeral Photographer for making a difficult time just that little easier

My family asked me to organise a photographer for our mother's funeral service recently. Mum had passed suddenly and some members of the family were overseas and were unable to get back to the service in time so we decided to have the funeral service and graveside service photographed to be able to share with them.
I jumped online and searched for a professional photographer and got some quotes. While I was looking I noticed an ad for Funeral Photographer and made contact with them as well. Craig got back to me very quickly and I was impressed by his apparent knowledge of the funeral industry and his pricing. After speaking to other professional photographers the selection was easy, we went with Craig from Funeral Photographer to record mums day.
On the day Craig was professional, non-intrusive and very discreet and the whole family was very happy with the service we were provided. I would have no hesitation in recommending Funeral Photographer to anyone who requires their services.

I have always believed that there are some things that you don't scrimp on, and funerals is obviously one of those things.
So when Mum passed recently, Dad wanted someone to take photos. Originally he suggested that we have one of the grandkids take a few pictures, but I told him that wasn't fair because it takes away their opportunity to share in the day.
I searched online, found Funeral Photographer and called Craig. His prices were very reasonable and it just took that little bit of pressure off those that attended.
Dad now looks back at the photos and says he is glad we decided to spend the little bit extra.
I thank Craig for his assistance

The funeral of a family member is always one of the most difficult times in life, and when important members of the family are unable to attend it just increases the stress levels even more.
After much discussion, we decided to engage the services of a Professional photographer, but we didn't want just any person. We had a look on Google and found Funeral Photographer and noticed that there were a number of very positive reviews for this service.
We called Craig at Funeral Photographer and spoke at length about what we wanted, and Craig's knowledge and experience showed through and made me feel comfortable with my choice.
On the day Craig met us, and then spoke to the Funeral Director and the priest to just make certain of the service and it was obvious that he knew exactly what he was doing, that the funeral directors knew him very well and seemed very respectful of him and that we had made a good decision. And on a day such as this it helps you be that little more confident that all will go well.
After about 10 days or so, Craig sent us a link to the website with a password to view a short slide show he had already put together, with music inset and we were stunned. The images were beautiful and every time we look at the slide show, we are reminded of the day, who attended and it brings tears to our eyes.
This was a very positive experience to us, and we will be always grateful to Craig at Funeral Photographer.

I cannot tell you how happy I am with Craig from Funeral Photographer. At short notice, as most funerals are, Craig was able to attend the church service and crematorium service for my brother. We only had about 25 people at the service, but that wasn't the point. My other sister was unable to attend due to the fact that my brother passed away unexpectedly and she was travelling overseas with her family. After a bit of discussion we decided it was best that she remain overseas and that we would have the funeral photographed by a professional photography service.
My sister actually sent me a message that she had found what she believed to be the perfect person. I jumped online, looked at the website and we went with Funeral Photographer. What better than someone who actually specialises in funerals.
We are very happy indeed with Craig and have no hesitation in recommending his services to anyone who wants to share the day with family and friends who can't make it.

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!!
