"We have used Jo at Abat'jour Photography for a number of projects and have always been impressed with Jo's dedication and her efforts to strive to capture the best possible pictures. We have been most pleased with the selection of shots she has offered us. She always presents them well and ensures the quality and strength of the photos is paramount!

Jo offers a range of flexibility with her photographs from a traditional portrait to more contemporary shots including close ups. The way Jo manages to capture and portray the internal aspects, i.e. kitchen, bathroom etc, I am sure really helps attract our buyers.We have used them widely in our marketing material enabling us to achieve good sales on our properties in a superb time scale.

The standard of photography has been  exemplery and Jo's ability to pick the details has really enabled us to show our properties in the best possible light. We have no hesitation in recommending Jo and will continue to use Jo for many years to come, I am sure."

"Jo Hawes has been known to me for some time and so I was pleased that when she launched 'Abat'jour Photography' that we at last not only had a friendly, but also good, photographer in the South East.

In the past couple of years Jo has taken and produced some fantastic photographs of our horses in unaware situations and also in planned photo shoots. Our last contact with Jo was for a portrait of a very angry grey gelding for a client in New Zealand, the results were fantastic! She is competitively  priced, flexible and comes highly recommended."

 "Jo has a talent for capturing a more artistic image, and her knowledge of horses and hounds comes over in her pictures. I was delighted to find a photograph that was perfect for the cover of our Point-Point race card. It is great to have a talented photographer  based locally, and am sure  I will use Jo's services again."

Rachael Holdsworth (Holdsworth PR & Marketing)

"I met up with Jo of Abat'jour Photography to take pictures of my dogs, Benson and Dibble. We walked to a Bluebell Wood near to my house with Jo taking photos on the way of Benson and Dibble playing. Jo got some fantastic shots especially of Benson who seemed to love to pose for the occasion. Jo was really patient with not so photogenic Dibs and very flexible with any ideas I had. All the pictures were brilliant and of a great quality, I wanted to buy them all. I would definitely recommend  her to anyone wanting  to capture a memory  in time."
