Kind Words From Past Clients

An elderly woman standing on a paved walkway in a park, knitting with blue yarn. She is smiling, wearing glasses, a wide-brimmed hat, a scarf, a denim jacket, a long blue skirt, and red socks with hiking shoes. There are trees and flowers in the background.

“Celie has created outstanding and beautiful photos for us, documenting events and activities in public spaces.

We needed images that were up close and detailed as well as those that captured the overall activity. Celie did this perfectly, creating warm and beautiful images that we all love and use as much as we can.

Celie is a pleasure to work with. She is a clear communicator, and her photography is always sensitive and aware. Celie's an inspiration and I highly recommend her as a photographer to work with.”

— Sue Palmer, Edventure

“Celie is the most talented photographer I have ever worked with.

Celie is extremely professional, always on time, communicates clearly and is so kind. My favourite photographer of all time.”

— Manly Mannington,  International Drag King and Producer

A young Black woman with dreadlocks wears a light blue shirt and jeans, standing with her hands clasped, smiling confidently indoors with blurred background.

“We loved working with Celie. She totally understand our mission and helped us translate it into imagery that feels authentic, energetic and full of purpose.

She was great at working with our programme participants and putting them at ease. We always get compliments on the beautiful images Celie produced for us, so much so that more than two years on we knew we wanted to get Celie back to work her magic for us as we refresh our branding.

We can't wait to work with her again!”

— Felicity Halstead, GoodWork UK
