When it comes to weddings the best advice I have ever been given is book the best photographer you can find. When we started looking around for our photographer for our daughter's wedding, we came across David Paillas on the internet and loved his work and we knew David was the best in his field. It was obvious from our first meeting that David knew exactly the type of photos we wanted as my daughter wanted the pictures to reflect her love of the beach and outdoors.

We completely trusted David with this important day and we were not disappointed. The photos are spectacular. As a parent I am thrilled to have these beautiful photos and I cannot recommend David highly enough. His patience and understanding made our day less stressful and I could sit back and relax knowing that David was capturing special moments.

David also organised a videographer for us and the DVD of the ceremony, location and reception is of the absolute highest quality. It's great to be able to go back and watch the DVD and relive those important moments.

I can't thank David and his videographer enough for the effort they put in and the remarkable results. The photos and DVD will be treasured forever.

David is a professional, friendly young man who goes out of his way to make everyone feel comfortable and he was open to suggestions for photos. As we live interstate, David always made sure he was available to meet with us when we travelled to Shellharbour. He is always really relaxed and easy going and for us it was a pleasure to have David photograph our daughter's wedding.

I can only hope that David is still a photographer when our youngest daughter gets married.

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for our wedding photos, they are amazing!!! So much better than I ever expected.

Thanks for your relaxed nature on the day, you put us at ease on a somewhat stressful event.

All the family loves the photos and I have received soooo many compliments.

Thanks again and all the best.

Cheers

Dear David,

Thank you so much for the beautiful photos that you produced. We were blown away by the great variety of shots taken. We've had wonderful comments on the quality of the photos so you should be very proud. We can't wait to get some canvas photos on the wall. Magical!

Thank you once again.

David was recommended to us by a friend of mine. From the start we had a really good impression of David. He is so positive, friendly and open to suggestions in order to meet our needs. He showed us some samples of his exquisite work and we were indeed impressed. We still never imagined how even more beautiful the photos of our wedding would turn out.

Photos of a wedding are to last a lifetime, so it was very important to get the right person doing this work for us. My husband and I come from different continents (Argentina and the Netherlands) and there were many friends and family across the world that were unable to attend our wedding. It was therefore very important to us to get the best pictures ever. I cannot stress enough how many times family and friends from Argentina, Canada, Netherlands, Sweden to name a few, said how fantastic and amazing the photos of our wedding were and giving a big thumbs up for our Aussie photographer. We thank David for his great work. We are very happy indeed with the photos that we got.

It was so important for us to find the perfect photographer for our wedding because wedding photos last a lifetime. From the start you were friendly and approachable. You were able to combine our ideas with yours. With your location knowledge of the area, you were able to find the perfect location for our photos out of the wind. You have an excellent attention to detail and use angles and light to produce stunning photos. I have never seen a photographer turn up to a wedding with a ladder but the results were amazing. We are so grateful for your excellent work and your professional manner. We now have beautiful photos to remember our special day, a gift that we will treasure forever. Thank you so much.

From the moment we met David, we knew he was the right fit for us. David’s laid back personality paired with his exceptional photographic skills made us feel completely at ease on our big day - we knew we were in good hands! Because we felt so comfortable, David was able to take the most amazing natural shots - we didn’t even realise we had been caught on camera. That’s what we loved most about David - his ability to see a great moment or expression as it is happening and capture it before the moment’s gone. You can tell David is a true photographer- and that was what made the difference for us. He didn’t take digital shots and colour them black and white later (like so many photographers do), he used numerous cameras and real film to capture the real colours of our day. We are so happy with our wedding photos and our family and friends can’t stop commenting on how wonderful they are. David was one of the best choices we made - we’d ask him again in a second.

David is a rare talent indeed. To see him work is to witness more than a prod in this direction or that, a helpful suggestion, gentle coercion to a more suitable position. One observes rather a fusion of will and intent between photographer and subject that occurs almost without either realising it.
The quality of the end result should, therefore, have not come as a surprise, but, inevitably, it did, surpassing even our wildest expectations.

We are delighted to have this unique pictorial record of the most important day of our daughter and son-in-law’s lives and will always be grateful to David for his excellent work. No parent should want, or settle for, less, for their children. Now, no parent has to.

When we started the search for our wedding photographer the choice was easy, because we had already seen David’s work from a friend’s wedding. We met with David and discussed the types of photos we wanted and as photography is a hobby we wanted something with an edge. Our photos are not only our most treasured memories of our wedding day, David’s skill and excellent understanding of composition has turned them into artworks.

G’day David, we just wanted to write and thank you so much for our photos. Everybody has commented on the photos saying how they’re the best wedding shots they've ever seen and that they are so natural and different. We are so impressed by the album, it's awesome. Your enthusiasm and professional approach made the photo shoot so enjoyable, we had so much fun we wish we could do it again! We will be recommending you to all our engaged friends, so might see you in Brisbane soon. Thanks for your hard work.

Thanks for the photography for our wedding. You did a fantastic job and we are extremely happy with every single picture, making it hard to pick out any favourites. When we got our photos back we were surprised at the amount of pictures that we actually had. On the day it did not seem like that many were taken, but you blended in with the crowd and made us and our bridal party feel comfortable which made our pictures look natural. Thank you for listening to us and capturing our day exactly the way we wanted it. Good luck with your future.
