Michaela Sent on 08/02/2024Cannot recommend enough!!!!
There are not enough hours in the day for me to rave about Dan! He is one of these rare gems that is not only incredibly talented at what he does but he is also the most wonderful of humans.
I knew how lucky we were to book Dan to be our wedding photographer from the very first moment I approached him on social media. Dan makes you feel more like a friend than a client and you can easily see this just by looking at his social media posts!! Dan genuinely cares and spends the time getting to know you and I have no doubt that this plays a huge part in him being able to capture such beautiful moments as well as everyone's unique personalities within his photos.
On the day, Dan was effortless to be around and has the most brilliant sense of humour so he was not only able to make everyone feel comfortable but also kept it incredibly fun! Our guests adored Dan...young and older alike!
I also don't think Dan sleeps or he must be superhuman...because he managed to get our sneak peak to us the day after the wedding and our actual photos to us less than 3 weeks after the wedding! And all I can say is WOW. Myself and my husband cannot stop looking at them and I have ugly cried happy tears so many times now haha!
It is not even necessary for me to recommend his work as his pictures speak for themselves!
So thank you Dan for playing such a huge part in our journey- before, during and after. Our wedding photos are simply stunning and we will treasure the special memories that you have captured so beautifully! We couldn't be happier with our photo's or our choice of photographer!
Lots of love,
Mr & Mrs Duggan xx -

Dan was photographer for our wedding on 10th August 2024.
He met with us twice before the wedding to ensure that he understood how the day was planned to go, but also to get a feel for the kind of photography we would like from him. He created a mood board with us using his previous work and on the day ensured that he had created the photos that we had specifically requested.
His communication with us prior to the event was great, but it was his communication style on the day that really shone for him. He engaged so well with all the guests, even managing to get my youngest daughter (9 year old) to comply almost willingly with photos, going along with some of her suggestions to encourage her to get involved. Dan really did become like another guest who happened to be taking amazing photos at the same time.
We have had our sneak peak so far and the photos are exactly what we wanted. They capture the day so well that they literally take us back to moments and the feelings that we had during those moments, which is exactly what anyone would want from their wedding day. We would 100% recommend Dan to anyone looking for a photographer with a good sense of humour and a great character who really listens to your asks and delivers! -

After booking Dan he kept us in the loop and calm throughout the process! Zoom meetings were a breeze and on the day he kept us and our guests laughing with his antics which made for wonderful photos! Only seen the sneak peek but we are excited to see the rest -

Where did you find this guy? He's Amazing!
I can't recommend Dan enough! As soon as we had our first meeting with him, we knew we wanted him to capture our special wedding day. He took the time to understand what we were looking for, prepping and creating a mood board. And on the day, his energy and creativity worked so seamlessly with everyone. I was able to relax and not worry about ensuring we got everyone involved. He is truly such a professional and helped to guide us through the day - and some photo moments I didn't even think of! Everyone was asking where we found him as he was so amazing. Thank you so much Dan for helping us not to miss a single moment, to even sweating it out with us on the dance floor! 😅 -

What can we say, Dan delivered!! He took on board everything we wanted and he made sure it happened. The majority of the time, we didn't even know the photos were being taken!! He went above and beyond... and up and down ladders, to make sure we got some amazing shots. He also helped guests with their jackets, making sure we had our shoes, grabbing us our flowers and more. We loved candid shots too and he most definitely caught them. We wanted fun, whacky and relaxed and that is exactly what we got. Dan interacted with all of our guests and everyone felt super comfortable around him, even the shy ones! We can not thank Dan enough, super professional but lots of fun too! -

Charlie Sent on 29/06/2024Wow - words cannot express how amazing Dans work is - You will not regret hiring Dan as your photographer!
I don't even know where to start! From the moment we contacted Dan about our wedding, he was professional, relaxed and approachable. We looked over Dan's website and knew immediately that he would be the guy for us! His photos are incredible and you can get a real feel for his sense of humour. On our first zoom call, our little man (3yrs) was with us and Dan instantly had him in fits of giggles and wanting to engage. Our wedding was very family orientated and we knew Dan would be amazing at getting the kids (and big kids) to smile and enjoy the photos. Nothing was too much trouble, and Dan came with a cart full of props for the day which really added some wow to the pictures. No fear as he climbed the wobbly ladder for the big family pictures, or as he was trampled by beer thirsty hooligans in the beer run! Not being fans of having photos taken, Dan guided us along the way, and has created such a beautiful album of photos. Dan slotted into the day as if he was a family friend, and we will certainly be using him again for some family photo shoots! Thank you so much Dan for capturing our day so perfectly. -

Super happy, professional and GREAT PHOTOS!
From our first zoom call we chatted like old friends. Dan is so easy to talk to and discuss what you want, and don't want, out of the photos on your big day. During the day, apart from the one to one's I didn't notice his presence but he captured some amazing shots of my family and friends. Images that we will all treasure for years to come.
I was a little apprehensive going into a wedding day at 68, but Dan captured all my best sides. -

Fun and Talented!
From the moment my wife and I first met Dan he made us feel completely at ease. Neither of us are keen photography subjects, and we were accordingly anxious when we first ventured on a family photoshoot, a gift courtesy of my brother, with our two boys in tow. It took a maximum of 5 minutes for Dan to have them giggling like mad, and start capturing some fantastic photographs.
Dan has an incredible ability to shift focus away from the laborious act of taking one photo after another, and effortlessly makes everyone feel comfortable with jokes, impressions, and good chat! Therefore it's probably no surprise that we immediately thought of Dan to be our wedding photographer after we got engaged. I think we almost booked him before we even chose our venue!
The entire process was straightforward and flexible, with various different packages to choose from. Dan takes time to discuss your photo preferences and get to know you, and also to know about your wedding plans. He uses all of this to create a bespoke mood board that he can refer back to throughout the day to ensure he captures the shots you really wanted. If all of that doesn't sell it, then to top things off he brings bottle of prosecco to spray during the group photographs. I felt like Lewis Hamilton in Monaco, even if it was only for 5 seconds...
I think the photos speak for themselves, so I've attached a few to this post. The wedding album is equally stunning, with an incredibly high quality finish, which completely befits the importance of the occasion. So many of our guests commented on both the standard of the photos and Dan's personality, which they were highly impressed by.
All in all, if you're looking for a photographer who is easy to work with, fun, dedicated, and most of all TALENTED, then you should look no further. I'm so glad that we chose Dan to be our wedding photographer. -
