Friendly, professional and discreet

We asked Brendan to photgraph the baptism for our children. He was quick to respond to messages and arrived nice and early on the day. Brendan was friendly and great with the babies. We had a few posed photos but really wanted him to capture everyone in a very natural way. He did this brilliantly was really discreet so people weren't on edge having their photo taken. Would happily recommend Bredan and we will use him again for our next event.

George & Carolina's Wedding Pictures

Brendan is a very professional and friendly photographer. He really gets immersed in the moment together with all people involved.
Having him there was like having a member of the family and all the pictures he took were perfectly natural with great quality.
Great job! Highly recommend!
George & Carolina.

Perfect photographer

I wanted a photographer for my wedding day that would take amazing shots and not the typical wedding pictures everyone has. My husband isn't a 'stand and pose type of guy'
When meeting brendan for the first time, he is such a lovely and friendly guy. It was very easy to say yes and he knew exactly what I wanted.
He spent the first half of the day with me, before making his way to the wedding venue taking sneaky shots of my soon to be husband (did I mention he hates his picture being taken)
Brendan was great at getting shots of him. After the ceremony he came with us to the tattoo parlour and then to the next venue.
All my wedding pictures are amazing. There are a few that were staged and posed for but the rest were just randomly taken....which I love.
He was very accommodating and made the day even more special

Entertaining, punctual and professional. Couldn't have asked for a better photographer to capture my special day.

Was a brilliant experience working with Brendan. He was punctual and kept the wedding party entertained throughout. All felt relaxed which made the smiles even brighter.

Brendan- hardest working man at the wedding!

Brendan worked tirelessly to record our day, going from home to the venue and between bride, groom and guests. He was easy going and friendly, getting the best out of our smallest guests. Our photos reflect our personality and Brendan worked hard to deliver them to us really quickly after the event. Thank you so much!

Would highly recommend Brendan, he went to recce the venue before our wedding at Leeds Castle to ensure he knew where would make the best shots. He put everyone at ease from the moment he arrived made the getting ready experience much more relaxed and was cracking jokes from the very start. He has a very informal approach and this has come through in his beautiful candid shots which is what we wanted. Communication was great from start to Finnish, and given he was there all day he is exceptional value for money. He really added something to our day captured all the shots we wanted without making it too formal an affair. If you're looking for a very professional photographer, who shots the best candid shots, just book him you will not be disappointed 😊

Our wedding 30 July 2022

We chose Brendan because we liked his portfolio, the quality of images, and his approach which was totally about what we wanted. He was thoroughly prepared, and that shows in the images we’ve received - completely capturing the joy of the day, with beautiful photos of friends and family. He worked so hard . Thoroughly recommend him. Thank you Brendan!

A truly professional service that made our wedding complete.

Choosing Brendan to photgraph our Wedding truly made our day perfect. We met with Brendan before the day and we knew that we had made the right choice. His professional approach and attention to detail made sure that he was able to capture the day not simply in photos, but also In atmosphere. Not only did Brendan manage to make my husband and I feel relaxed and comfortable but he also created a great rapport with our guests (they all loved him!). The result was that Brendan was able to give us a wonderful portfolio of photos that truly captured our day and which we can treasure. We really cannot thank Brendan enough for all his help and support and we highly recommend him to any couple who want to make their day complete.

Best Photographer Ever

Brendan made our day, he was professional and fun and made us completely relaxed. All the guests were impressed by him and we think he got more compliments than the bride. We would highly recommend him!

The Saunders Wedding

Wow. What can I say. We contacted Brendan a month or 2 before our wedding date desperately looking for a photographer who could capture every moment. Not only was he so flexible, but his photos are exquisite. We got our photos back a few days ago and the tears haven’t stopped! We gave him absolutely no direction of what we wanted, he turned up with his camera and he smashed it. He caught moments I didn’t think he would have caught, he improvised amazingly and truly did make our day a day to remember forever.

The up-close shots at the ceremony were so special and more than that, we didn’t even notice he was there!

Not only is Brendan a lovely man with the quirkiest personality.. he is also the most talented photographer I’ve ever seen.

I would 100% recommended Brendan for your upcoming wedding! You won’t be disappointed!

Brendan, thank you ever so much.

Our Wedding in Brighton Marina

We got married in 2014, we did not know any wedding photographers, We searched and searched the web and found Brendon. He had taken photos of Stirring Moss! I had a feeling Brendon, he was the one. We met locally in a coffee shop. It all felt good. On the day he blended in and really captured day with his innovative ideas into a taxi for a cliff photos, zebra crossing in the marina (like abbey road). Everything was naturally done making everyone feel at ease. We cannot recommend him highly enough. We treasure our photos thank you Brendon.
