Personal Message from the Manager

Name of Wedding Contact: Dash
I believe it is important to have a connection with your chosen photographer (they will be spending a lot of time with you both on your wedding day) - I would recommend every couple to meet or at least chat over the phone to ensure you can form that connection that will help on your day.

Exellent Day
Dash and his team were at our wedding all day long ,and done a fantastic job of our photos. They made us feel at ease and a lot of the time we didn;t know when they were taking photographs (apart from the group photos) . so this made for some really natural photos . An exellent day we had with Dash and the team, and we could'nt be happier with the results. Thank you Dash.

Book him for your wedding now!
rom the first contact with Dash he was friendly and helpful. Very responsive and open to different suggestions for your day. He went out of his way to put us at ease and having our photos on the day never seems like a chore because Dash and his assistant Steve made it all so fun. When we got our photos back (super quickly too I will add) we were amazed at how many photos we had that we hadn’t noticed being taken, oh and the drone footage was superb! All in all I would highly recommend Dash for your occasion :)

Perfectly captured day
From day 0 to the very end, and even way past the time Dash was supposed to be for, we supported throughout. A quick message away and all our questions were answered. Moreover, they both were willing to talk to us in person for clearer communication. It made the experience more personal. To ease our nerves a pre-wedding photoshoot was included, where we got to break the ice in front of the camera whilst wearing our casuals. Trust me, with their friendliness and guidance, you forgot the camera was even there. Both candid shots and beautiful staged photographs were taken, exactly how I would have imagined... The lighting and atmosphere was perfect! They were not just the photos I wanted but ones I couldn't even imagine, breathtaking! The price is very valid for what you get, that including not one but two photographers each with their own style. The style of photos were entirely up to what we wanted. The photography staged sessions were when we wanted. Their flexibility was commendable. All you have to do is see DASH's portfolio, or the photos I attached. The variety, passion for their job, and talent is visible.

Lovely pictures of our wedding !
Brendan captured our wedding day beautifully. He encorporated dome shots of interesting elements at our reception location, the light and colours are fantastic . Our images are full of emotions and include unique moments making our photos so personal. It was a pleasure to have such a talented photographer shoot our album. Brendan took time to establish the photos we wanted and introduced some ideas to us. We were also thrilled with the candid shots :-)

Photographer helped make our day the best!!
From start to finish Dash photography we're amazing. The help I received just through enquiries was the best I'd had From anyone I'd been in contact with when trying to find a photographer that wouldn't charge me ridiculous prices. On meeting them they were polite, warm and welcoming and made me feel so comfortable, especially that I hate photographs being taken. Every moment was captured perfectly. It was amazing how relaxed I began to feel. I have mobility issues and was constantly checked up on and made to feel like if I need a break or a sit down that this was OK too. There was no rush to get the next photo. Candid photos were also amazing. I can't thank Dash photography enough. Book them! You really won't regret it!

What a amazing day
Dash was absolutely amazing from start to finish. Made me and my now husband feel so at ease and comfortable (especially as he hates having his photo taken). We got amazing view photos as we were so close to the beach and sea and all the family photos we wanted as well as catching moments of all our guests at ease and enjoying themselves. We couldn’t have asked for anyone better

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

A fantastic wedding at the Leeming House hotel next to Ullswater at the Lakes, a fabulous drag queen was present to conduct the ceremony. One of the most 'lively' weddings I have photographed.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Relaxed, Natural, Artistic, Calming & Friendly

What about your business are you most proud of?

Our ability to get even the most nervous couple to be comfortable in front of the camera. I take pride giving the absolute best service I can give and hope the reviews are proof of that.

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

timings - as a photographer I try to help with as much as possible for couples to stick to their schedule, by giving couples as much information before the wedding on how long certain photography takes helps them keep time with their venue. The key to a great set of images is not to rush.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

An outdoor wedding barbecue - the bride & groom served all their guests dinner - it was such a lovely interaction from the couple with all of their guests.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

I'm a planner by nature so I like to ensure all weddings are thoroughly planned and discussed. After booking , the couple will receive a number of Questionnaires to complete, this is followed up by a pre-wedding meeting before the big day to go over timings and finalise arrangements.

What is the No. 1 photo that you think every couple should take?

A showstopper - give your photographer the opportunity to make magic for you at least one during your wedding photography session.

What is the most original photo you’ve been asked to take at a wedding?

Haha - I have so many unusual requests - recently was asked to photograph a bride in the middle of a shallow river in her wedding dress - not totally out of the ordinary but she was going to her wedding breakfast after photos.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrella & Pair of wellies!! - Seriously though, rain can add a touch of drama to wedding images, but equally bad weather forces creativity indoors which can produce equally stunning images.

Describe how you got into photography.

A lifelong interest and hobby became a lifeline during the financial crisis back in 2008 - Started a studio and wedding photography business. I now focus primarily on Weddings & Boudoir (bridal).
