Testimonials from Happy Clients

We used Tony (Moments in Light) for our wedding and he was absolutely amazing. He not only took amazing photos of our day but was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was readily available for any questions we had, was so organised and made everything so easy for us. If you're looking for a photographer, I couldn't recommend Tony any higher - if I could, I would!

Tony shot our wedding and was both a brilliant and professional photographer as well as an easy going and comfortable guide to the day. With so much going on in every moment he seemed to always know where to be to capture the special little moments that we didn’t even realize were happening ourselves.

The best part of having him around (other than the amazing photos) was that he just knew what everyone needed to be doing and how to do it. Obviously, we spent months planning our special day but there were always little moments where we weren’t entirely sure what to do and Tony, with his experience, was great at making those little suggestions which made the special moments that we will cherish the most. That’s not something we really thought we would be getting from a photographer but just made the whole experience so seamless and easy – it was like having a wedding coach and photographer in one!

Having a practice shoot was not something we were really expecting to do with a photographer but was worth its weight in gold! We got to practice poses, talk about what we did and didn’t like and see what worked for us. This meant that on the day we could capture a ton of great photos without eating into the rest of the wedding schedule. We also ended up with another set of great pictures of us!

Could not wish for a better experience! Thoroughly recommended!

Tony was amazing, would recommend for anyone needing a photographer. He made our wedding day so easy and comfortable. Our pictures came back quicker and even better than expected.

Moments in light is a fantastic photographer to work with. Tony was receptive to all feedback from our practice shoot and brought that into our wedding day. Despite the rain he got some fantastic photos that I will absolutely treasure forever. Because of the rain we got extra shots we didn't originally have time for. Tony is amazing to work with and absolutely worth it! He captured the raw and candid essence of our special day and delivered some incredible photos that captured our love and celebration. He doesn't have a photo or time limit like some other photographers and that meant he was there for us the whole day and we got all of the beautiful photos he took for us. I barely noticed him during the more intimate moments but seeing the photos afterwards he absolutely captured the raw emotions in those moments.

We had the most amazing wedding and were lucky enough to have such a great photographer to capture it!! Our photos turned out exactly how we pictured and the practice photo shoot had meant we had a "plan" to follow leaving us heaps of time and not feeling in a rush. Our guests have all told us how kind and approachable Tony was when wanting to get a photo and helping with posing ect. Everyone felt at ease which can be hard to do when getting formal wedding photos! All our specific special moments were caught and the dance floor shots were amazing showing just how great our party was! I cannot recommend moments in light highly enough, Tony was easy to work with and very understanding from the start to the end, he was the perfect mix of professional and fun!

I can’t recommend this enough!! Tony is such a wonderful and extremely talented photographer. Even if you have no idea how to pose, he’ll guide you and you will feel very comfortable! Amazing experience 🥳

Tony was awesome! We picked Moments in Light because we liked the "start to end" flexibility, rather than many other photographers who only offer ~6hr slots. It meant Tony could join us when getting ready, then throughout the ceremony, reception and the party! Tony has an awesome calming energy, and never once made us feel silly as a couple who have never had professional photography in our lives. Tony dealt well with rambunctious family, was cool as a cucumber with cyclone alerts going off during our day, got awesome action shots on the dance floor, and also took special extra portraits of family and friends during downtime. Would absolutely recommend!

Tony recently shot our wedding, we have some beautiful photos to remember our day. Tonys communication is fantastic from start to end and he made myself and husband comfortable. Having practice shots was key for us as we are not photogenic type 😂 thanks Moments in Light.

10/10 would recommend booking Tony, he is beyond just talent! He is kind, passionate about what he does, easy to communicate with, very professional, works very quickly and he’s an all round great guy. He captured our wedding in the most beautiful way, we feel so beyond lucky to have these photos forever now thanks to Tony from moments in light!

Absolutely excellent wedding photographer. From day dot Tony was organised and professional with a streamlined process so we were never left guessing. He creatively captures people and atmosphere in a way that means we will have beautiful memories of our day for our whole lives. Ten out of ten would recommend!

Tony is an incredibly dedicated photographer who goes above and beyond to make us feel comfortable in front of the camera. We had a very fun engagement shoot at Muriwai and Tony gave us many tips to prepare us for the wedding day. Leading up to our wedding day, he checked in with us multiple times to go over details and carefully noted all of our requests. We really appreciated his dedication. We could tell our guests loved the energy he brought on the wedding day — it really helped lighten the mood during the group photos. The portraits he did for our guests after the reception was a highlight! And we loved all the candid moments he captured.

We are so glad we picked Tony to be our wedding photographer! 5 out of 5!

We had the best experience having Tony photograph our wedding! He was attentive from start to finish, going above and beyond to capture all the moments from our wedding. Tony was so personable, even our guests were commenting on how great he was. Couldn't recommend him and moments in light more!

Excellent photos. Tony went above and beyond with the photography. The photos turned out amazing and everyone was asking if he was a family friend and he slotted in so nicely and was friendly with everyone.

Tony was amazing in the months leading up to out wedding and the day itself. He took great pride in getting us ready and comfortable in front of the camera, and did an engagement shoot beforehand to get to know us and give us a chance to get to know him. On the day, weather was all over the place but every photo came out beautiful, and was delivered so quickly. Thanks Tony!

Tony has been INCREDIBLE! Not only did he make my husband and I feel comfortable but he also made all of our guests (we received many messages raving about how fun he was)! Everything has been easy, from communication to execution. We adore our photos and adore Tony!

Tony was incredible to work with for our wedding! From start to finish, his communication was clear and super easy, which made the whole process stress-free. He gave great posing guidance while still keeping everything natural, and his personality made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera.

Our portraits turned out stunning, and the candid shots were honestly some of our favorite moments from the day — he captured everything so beautifully and effortlessly. If you’re looking for a photographer who’s talented, fun, and genuinely amazing to be around, Tony is your guy!

Tony was great for our wedding. The shoot was a lot of fun, he made everyone feel at ease and the photos were amazing!

Tony was absolutely great. From the moment he messaged me on facebook because I'd made a typo in my email on his website form, I knew I'd chosen the right photographer - later confirmed by the amount of people who asked if he was family following our wedding. We had a very chill & stress free day & Tony was just overall great, got involved & I hope we have the opportunity to meet him again.

Tony has a great presence and does a brilliant job at making one feel safe and comfortable. He knows his stuff to create beautiful images! Super easy going and relaxed which meant my shoot was enjoyable, calm and fun!

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Tony for our wedding, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the very beginning, his communication was exceptional, always prompt, clear, and so friendly. He made us feel completely at ease and was incredibly organised and reliable throughout the entire process.

On the day, Tony was an absolute dream to work with. Calm, professional, and full of positive energy, they captured every special moment so beautifully without ever feeling intrusive. The attention to detail and creativity in their shots are just amazing — we are genuinely blown away by the final photos!

If you’re looking for a photographer who is not only talented but also wonderful to work with, we couldn’t recommend Tony more highly. Thank you for helping make our day so special and for giving us memories we’ll treasure forever!

Tony is a super easy going guy, very fun, always making people laugh, especially Me as the bride. 🤣 he's a top notch! Thanks to my cousin for looking around & found him. That I quickly get a hold of him! Superb! Wonderful! So happy with his work. 🥰

Tony was an incredible photographer who captured the most special moments of our lives so beautifully! As it was our first time having professional photos taken, we were a bit nervous—but he made us feel so comfortable and at ease. We're truly grateful for his talent and professionalism. Thank you to Moments in Light—your work speaks for itself, and we’ll definitely be spreading the word!

Tony and David did an amazing job at our wedding! They were both so kind and passionate throughout the whole process. Having the pre shoot was so useful and definitely helped with the nerves and feeling prepared for the day.

We appreciate you guys going above and beyond for Gel and I. We'd definitely recommend moments in light for wedding photos!

Tony kindly shot a series of headshots for my LinkedIn and professional presentations.

Not being a natural in front of the camera Tonys professionalism and sense of humour put me at ease right away and made it a really enjoyable process.

I'm extremely happy with the way the photos turned out, and I would confidently recommend anyone with photography needs to give to give him a call.

We commissioned Tony for our corporate headshots.

Whilst I appreciate I am somewhat biased, his easy manner, professionalism and superb post processing ensured that we were very happy with the images.

Tony is invested in ensuring that we were comfortable in front of the camera and he offers suggestions and guidance to get best images possible.

I recommend Tony without any hesitation.

I commissioned Tony at Moments in Light to shoot website and marketing images for my business 'Nat Hugill Coach'. He went above and beyond to ensure the photos met the brief, taking time to edit each image to perfection. He was fantastic to shoot with, allowing me creative expression while also providing helpful feedback to achieve the look I desired. On top of this, Tony is an excellent communicator and kept me informed of the process every step of the way. I'd highly recommend Tony for anyone looking for a professional photographer to shoot for them, not just for business/commercial photography, but for any photographic endeavor. Thanks Tony!

David and Tony are great to work with. They made us feel comfortable right from our very first meeting. The time and effort they put into ensuring we had everything we wanted and more was exquisite. During the ceremony and reception they were pretty much invisible. The end result were some amazing photos that we will treasure forever. Thanks guys.

I had photos taken at 2 locations which suited my needs as I wanted some in my workspace and some outdoors. The shoot was easy and the photos were great (and I am someone who really dislikes having their photo taken)! I also received a set of black and whites photos of the ones selected, which I was impressed with as some photographers charge extra for these.

Tony was quick to respond to my enquiry, we had a call so he could understand my business and what I was looking for, and then the shoot happened 2 weeks later. I also received my photos really quickly. Great service all round.

Tony is an amazing photographer. I can come to him with an idea and he brings it to life perfectly. He makes sure you feel completely comfortable and confident during the photoshoot. Everytime, I always come away with the best photos. I can't recommend him highly enough, if you want fantastic pictures - Tony is the photographer you want!

Tony is hand down one of my favourite photographers. I've worked with him on multiple projects where his warm humorous personality and easy conversation quickly calms any anxiety about being in front of a camera and makes things fun. He has a keen attention to detail and is a great creative collaborator who make sure the the perfect shot is captured. 100% recommended and I can't wait for another opportunity to work with him in the future.

Amazingly talented, patient, down to earth photographer! Tony makes you feel comfortable, is respectful and professional. STUNNING work and just an all round top human 👏

Excellent photographer, genuinely cares about all his subjects, whether people or classic cars, very clever in all aspects, don't hesitate, Tony is your man for the job

Tony is an amazing photographer. Captures a beautiful moment as it is and renders it timeless. Makes you comfortable in front of a camera and is a great guy to work with. Can’t recommend enough

Tony is an amazing photographer. I've worked with him as both a Model and Makeup Artist and both times he was extremely professional and easy to work with. Wouldn't recommend anyone more!

Amazing photographer. Gives great direction to get the most beautiful photos Highly recommend moments in light

Tony’s photos have helped my website, The Brewing Institute, look and feel very professional. The time he spent taking and editing them is the work of a true professional.

I have had the great pleasure of working with Tony a number of times now and each time I have been blown away by the images he captures.

Tony is reassuring, offers kind guidance and a great laugh along the way, which puts you at ease very quickly, which I believe is the key to good photographs.

I have no hesitation in recommending Moments in Light, and as a Marriage Celebrant, I know that Tony's professionalism is a huge asset on your big day.
