After first meeting Neil at my sister's wedding 4 years ago and seeing how he was behind the camera, and as a person, I knew we would work together again. Neil has since photographed our engagement, our wedding and now our family and extended family (I am sure this will be a regular occurrence!). I have trusted him to capture some of our most special days/moments and am constantly over-impressed by the quality of his work. Neil is amazing, highly recommend!

Neil was amazing to work with and took great pictures. Both my wife and I live in Toronto but wanted to do a maternity shoot in Kelowna where my wife is from. Neil was accommodating and communicated very well with us through email. When we arrived for the shoot and we brought props and made suggestions he was very open to them. Even when we arrived late he was very professional and understanding. His instructions were clear and all of the pictures turned out great. We got the first sample set of pictures within the same day! As soon as we paid the remaining amount we got the pictures almost immediately! For the price and quality of work, you will not find anyone better in the Okanagan. I will definitely be using Neil in the future. Anyone needing a photographer for weddings, maternity pics, parties etc. I would definitely call Neil first.

"Neil picked the spot where my husband and I got married based on the back drop we explained we were looking for. It was literally perfect and the photos he took captured the moment so beautifully. He worked under ridiculous circumstances-it was pouring rain all day but he promised the rain would make the photos even more unique and beautiful and he was right. He worked so hard and worked a lot longer than the couple of hours he had promised us. He’s an amazingly talented photographer and we are so happy we chose him to capture the most important day of our lives."

"Neil is an amazing photographer!!! We are in love with his clean, natural looking photography! He's able to capture moments so well and we love every single photo he captured from our wedding. He's based out of Kelowna but we hired him to photograph our wedding in Golden. Because he hadn't taken pictures at our venue before he traveled there on his own time, without charging, to check out the area and find amazing locations for taking pictures. Neil goes above and beyond for his clients, and his photos are stunning. I cannot believe the amount of amazing pictures we received. It allows us to relive the day so well!

We 100% recommend! And it won't be the last time he takes pictures for us, that's for sure!"

"This review is long overdue but still well deserved. Neil was the photographer of choice for my fiance' after searching the Kelowna market for the best one that would work well with us from a distance. He did not disappoint! Throughout the planning process and right up until we arrived in Kelowna for the wedding he was always responsive and helpful. He joined us for a walk through and rehearsals at our venue the day before and guided us through the plan for the day of. The morning of the wedding the sky darkened and the rain clouds rolled in. Undaunted Neil set up our "first look" shots on the roof of the hotel we were staying and indulged our goofiness with some "run away" groom pics afterwards and got them all in before the deluge started. The outdoor ceremony was a wet one but despite that Neil and his assistant managed to get some absolutely amazing shots of it all from multiple angles leaving us with some of the best memories of our big day. Thank you again Neil for a fantastic job on our wedding photos and helping preserve the memories of that great day! We would highly recommend Neil Slattery to anyone looking for a professional, competent, and skilled photographer!"

"We had the pleasure of meeting Neil at our friends’ wedding. So when we got engaged, we knew we could trust our day to be captured beautifully by Neil. Neil did our engagement photos and they were amazing. But I can say the day of my wedding Neil blew me away. He is so professional and serious about his job. He makes everything flow and always has a game plan. Neil made me feel beautiful and very comfortable in front of the camera. His work truly does not receive enough credit, and I’m not sure he even knows how talented he really is! I can’t thank Neil enough, our wedding pictures are something from a fairytale. In the future i would love to use Neil to capture our family. And I would recommend his work to anyone! Thank you Neil from the bottom of our hearts."

"My husband and I had the pleasure of meeting Neil when he photographed my sister's wedding. His photos were breathtaking and we knew that when it was our turn we had to use him as our photographer. Nearly six years later, we still turn to him when we need to capture those "big moments." We have had the pleasure of sharing life's sweetest moments with Neil: our engagement shoot, our wedding, my maternity shoot, and newborn photos with our brand new baby girl. What's special about Neil is that he takes those in-the-moment photos you can't recreate. He knows what he is doing and goes the extra mile to get the perfect shot. I couldn't recommend him more! Thank you for everything!"

"I booked Neil for my wedding on June 29, 2013 and he was a pro from start to finish. We didn't have timing (our fault, not his) to do an engagement session so Neil had his work cut out for him having never photographed us. You would never know it! He was so professional, so knowledgeable, so precise... we were EXACTLY on time for everything on the day of thanks to him. We have recommended him to everyone we know and I hope we have a reason to hire him again because he really was THAT GREAT! We are so blessed to now be able to look back at every photograph to remember what a wonderful day we had."

"James and I got married in Kelowna and had Neil do our pictures. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. He was taking pictures right from us getting ready until the party was well underway at the reception, he literally captured every moment of our special day. Which is super because the day itself flew by so fast for us, it is really nice to be able to go back and see all those moments, and lots of moments we didnt know happened! Neil is a great photographer, he has an eye for capturing amazing shots. All our shots are amazing! And he take LOTS of pictures! I plan on having him take pictures in the future and highly highly recommend him!"

"Our experience was a little different as we eloped to Kelowna with our 2 year old daughter. We didn't have the getting ready or the reception, like a traditional wedding. Neil offered us a great rate and a slightly different package as we were wanting the ceremony photographed as well as some nice family shots. I was also pregnant at the time so it doubled as a maternity shoot. Neil was professional, he showed up on time and really delivered what we wanted. We felt at ease with him and like he knew exactly what he was doing. My husband is a photographer himself so he is usually a little more critical about these things but he was VERY satisfied. Our photos were great and we are so over the moon with the way Neil captured our special day. Thank you Neil for a great experience and beautiful photos that will be plastered over all our walls :)"

"Neil Slattery is an amazing photographer! My comments do not do justice to his work. My husband and I were very impressed with Neil. He is very professional and makes everyone feel very comfortable. He ensures that all the "necessary" photos are taken and are beautiful, and in addition takes spectacular shots that you would never expect. I love to look at our wedding photos and the wonderful memories of the day that Neil captured. I highly recommend Neil and would hire him again without hesitation. You will not be disappointed if you hire Neil Slattery Photography."

"Neil was amazing to work with. During the day we went various times to Neil for advice, as we knew that he would know what works best for photos. For example: we ended up changing the direction our ceremony 180°, so the sun was not directly in our faces, which not just helped Neil to take phenomenal photos, but also kept us cooler on a warm day! Neil has an eye for the small details, as well as for the big picture. He is very organized, but didn’t leave any opportunity untouched to get a great photo. He will get his shoes wet, or will make you jump on his back, if this is what he needs to capture a special moment.

We are so excited and cannot wait to get back the photos he took. Neil made me feel confident and beautiful and was a joy to work with!"

"My husband, Luke, and I were so happy with our decision to hire Neil as our wedding photographer. He is such a pro! He came to the venue the day before to get himself familiar with the surroundings, and he made a great effort to understand what types of moments we wanted photo memories of. Both Luke and I are a bit camera shy, but Neil got us laughing and having fun, and the photo shoot was a highlight of our day.

Neil was quick to get us the edited photos, and the results were beautiful. His photos captured all the feelings of happiness, friendship and love that our day was made of."

"Neil and second shooter Tara Hill, photographed our wedding in June 2018. Neil went out of his way to get to know us both before the big day, and gave us some great ideas to consider in our preparation. He was professional in his correspondence, timely via e-mail and in person on the day of, and got some absolutely amazing shots. We will be sure to recommend him in the future! Great job Neil."

Amazing! it's the only way to describe our experience with Neil. He shot our engagement photos and we were really impressed. First Neil took the time to learn about us and what we were looking for and he really captured that. We shot at four different locations and had a ton of fun the whole time. We would definitely recommend Neil to anyone looking for a great Photographer.

Thanks again Neil!

"We had the pleasure of booking Neil for our wedding in Kelowna this past June. I cannot begin to express the immense gratitude we feel for the photos that we have now received. He captured every moment so beautifully and we are so thrilled. Not to mention everything that he did on the day of to make sure no moments were missed and that we stayed on track for the day. He was everywhere at once and not a single moment was missed. I’ve been through the photos a dozen times now and honestly can’t stop smiling.

Again, thank you for capturing our day so wonderfully."

Our experience with Neil was phenomenal! He was always available to answer any questions we had and helped us sequence our ideas and vision into the perfect day. Neil was extremely accommodating and it felt like he was part of our family during our small and intimate wedding.

"Neil, thank you for your energy and awesome guidance on our wedding day! The time you have put in to meeting with us, attending the rehearsal and scouting locations, is so very appreciated. We knew you were our guy - on our team, and we will always be grateful for your expertise."
