    Hands down, best decision of our big day!

    Just from looking at Darren's previous work, we knew he'd be the right fit for our big day. After the consultation on Zoom (and our cat flashing), we could tell if we went with him, he'd deliver.

    Darren is genuinely the nicest, most fun (yet professional) guy to be around! Throughout the entire wedding Darren did a great job camouflaging into the background doing what he does best, snapping candid shots (different peeps/emotions) and of course taking the traditional ones we had requested.

    He made us feel comfy, had us giggling away when he was taking our couples pictures, which really helped us feel relaxed when we really needed to be!

    I pretty much bawled my eyes out when we received our pictures, we said he'd deliver and he bloody well did.

    Communication, cost, professionalism, banter - all grade A. We can't thank you enough mate, best decision for our big day.

    And it's worth pointing out this legend did all this 3 DAYS before his OWN wedding; impressive much? Just book him now, do it!

    Thank you once again Darren, you super star.

    Much love, Terri & Tom (The Nics) xox

    Amazing through and through

    From the moment we met Darren we knew we had found our wedding photographer. Darren shot our wedding in August at East Mersea Hall, having traveled all the way to us to make sure our special day was captured in its entirety.
    From start to finish he captured not just every main moment but all the little ones in between as well, I swear he must have been in 2 places at once for some of them! His photos are stunning visually while keeping the charm, story, and character of the day itself.
    His professionalism and personality made the essential group shots not just quick and painless, but also fun. And we loved laughing along with him during the many different couple sessions throughout the day.
    Above all else we felt safe knowing that Darren was our photographer, putting our minds at ease for one of the biggest parts of our wedding. He even stayed till the end and came to the rescue of some guests after a mix up with cabs!!
    Cannot recommend Darren enough!!

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Aww you guys are too kind, thank you thank you thank you ❤️

    Your wedding was A-MAZ-ING!! So I’m truly humbled by these kind words!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to write me a review, it means so much 🎉 enjoy married life you lovely pair of people ❤️

    What a Top Man!

    Well what can we say, Darren was an absolute diamond on our wedding day! We first met Darren at a friends wedding, and thought he was so friendly and the photos were amazing, we had to book him for our own wedding.

    From start to finish, Darren was more than just a photographer, and felt like part of the wedding party! Everybody was at ease and relaxed, as Darren worked his magic, and so many of our guests later commented how amazing he was! He's also like a photography ninja, there are so many photos in our gallery, where we don't even remember seeing Darren capturing the moment!

    There's not enough we can say to commend him high enough, but if anybody is looking for a wedding photographer, don't even think twice and get Darren booked for your big day!

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Luke I couldn’t agree more 😂

    But seriously, thank you, what a blooming amazing review!

    I adored your wedding, you two were just so happy all day 😊 I wish you all of the good vibes for the rest of your married life 🥰

    Above and beyond!

    Highly recommend Darren if you’re looking for a photographer for your big day! We both had so many questions about how it would all work and he was amazing at supporting us right from day one! On the day he was so organised and made us feel at ease, he was amazing when I was panicking about being late to my own wedding!!
    He was so accommodating to our wishes, we did a ‘secret’ shoot to use as baby announcement pictures as I was newly pregnant at the time!
    We absolutely love how our pictures turned out and couldn’t have asked for more! So much more than just an amazing photographer!

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Hey Jemma!!

    Aw thank you for such an awesome review!! I absolutely LOVED your wedding, especially the little maternity shoot half way through the day!!

    I don’t think you were late to your own wedding, anything less than an hour doesn’t count anyway!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a review!!

    What a guy

    We've just got our photos back from our 21st July wedding and we are totally in love. They captured our day perfectly and were totally worth the wait. Darren was absolutely wonderful from start to finish - we had an online chat with him in one of the 2020 lockdowns, we had 4 'interviews' booked in but after meeting Darren 2nd we cancelled the rest as we knew he was the one for us. He completely put us at ease and knew that on the day itself he wouldn't make us feel even more awkward as you naturally do when someone is following your every move taking your picture!

    Fast forward two years and in the run up to the day he provided us very clear information on how the day would work from his perspective and gave us some tips to think about as well. He was with us from bridal and groom prep, all the way through to the late night drunken dancing. We got so many comments on how nice a man he was from our guests and how well he just fitted in with the crowd, chatting away, having some giggles - all while getting those sneaky natural shots in.

    Now to the most important part - the photographs! We received our 'sneak peaks' after a week and they gave us a beautiful taste of what was to come. We last week received over 1500 beautifully thought about and edited photos to give us memories to last a life time. We cannot thank him enough for being a part of our day and for our beautiful photographs. We will recommend him to anyone who needs a wedding photographer and if we ever renew our vows we'll be sure to hire Darren again!

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Wow!! Thank you! I’m so glad you cancelled your other meetings 😂 because I LOVED your wedding and working with you two!

    This review and your wedding are two of the reasons why I have the best job ever!

    Enjoy married life, you both deserve it ❤️

    Darren is far more than a photographer 🌟

    We actually hired Darren after meeting him at a friends wedding. The way the bride was chatting to him, i thought he was friends of the couples! He is a thoroughly lovely person, makes you feel at ease and you have a laugh with him.

    We shortly booked him for our wedding and I can honestly say, we had absolutely no regrets. His prices are fair, and he just goes above and beyond on the day. There were times where he genuinely felt like part of the bridesmaids.

    Not only are you paying for the most beautiful and natural photos of your wedding day, you get a Wonderful person to capture your day!

    If you’re reading this - do not look elsewhere. Your only regret will be not booking Darren!

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Aww thank you Montana! You absolutely smashed it on your wedding day and I had so much fun with you all. To quote your review, I'd have LOVED to have been one of your bridesmaids ❤️

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave me a review.

    Have the best married life!!

    Darren

    Utterly Fantastic

    Darren was such an amazing presence to have on our wedding day and I can’t think of having another photographer! From the very start of our process he was great and I cannot recommend him highly enough. After the day when we saw our photos we were even more blown away and completely thrilled with how he captured the magic of our day.

    Reality Photography's reply:

    Thank you so very much Jess ❤️

    I’ve said it a million times but I loved your wedding, you’re both such a well matched couple and the chemistry of happiness was just beaming from you both, making my job… well.. I probably shouldn’t say easy?!

    Keep being your wonderful selves ❤️
