Kind Words

We had Darren and Yasmin as our wedding photographers. They both had great communication, very friendly and easy to get along with, they both put us at ease and their enthusiasm was top notch which made the photos fun to have done. Attention to detail was second to none, very punctual and we cannot recommend highly enough.

Darren is an absolutely amazing photographer. He photographed our Wedding in June. The photos have come out just amazing. Didn't notice him moving around at all and getting all angles and photos of everyone. He was always available for chatting leading up to and easily adapted to a non-tradional wedding. We will definitely be back in the future for some family photos. Thank you so much Darren!

I am so glad we chose Darren to be our wedding photographer at Field Place in July 2023. When we were looking for a photographer, we loved the style of photos that Darren takes as they are clear, timeless and capture the important moments perfectly. We first made contact in November 2021 and communication has been prompt, professional and friendly ever since. We opted for the ‘Forever Collection’ which is competitively priced for what is included in the package. Our engagement shoot at Brighton Bandstand confirmed that Darren was the photographer we wanted for our wedding - neither of us had ever had a photo shoot before, but Darren quickly put us at ease and the pictures were better than we could have imagined. On our wedding day, Darren was great with our guests and unobtrusively snapped away throughout the day. We were over the moon to receive our photos just two weeks after the wedding, and couldn’t be happier with them. I recommend Darren without hesitation - he is a brilliant photographer who has given us photos we will cherish forever. Thank you, Darren!

We couldn't have been happier with choosing Darren as our wedding photographer. He was fantastic throughout the whole process and put us at ease throughout the day despite neither of us being a fan of photographs being taken. Darren also had a quick turnaround, we received our photos the day we came back from our honeymoon which was an added bonus! We cannot recommend Darren enough.

Dear Darren,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the amazing job you did as our wedding photographer. You truly captured many special moments of our wedding day, and we are so grateful for your hard work and dedication.

Your professionalism, creativity, and attention to detail were evident in every aspect of your work. You were able to capture the essence of our special day, and the photos you produced are absolutely stunning. We have received so many compliments from our friends and family on how beautiful the photos turned out.

We appreciate how you went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect and make us laugh or things less awkward especially in taking our couples photos. You made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and your expertise in photography really shone through.

We will cherish these photos for a lifetime and they will always be a reminder of our love and the special day we shared. Thank you again for all your hard work and for creating such beautiful memories for us to treasure forever.

Having Darren at our wedding to capture our day was a pleasure, he was so patient and polite (mix between waiting for children and adults stuck at the bar). My partner and I are not massive fans of having our photo taken so was dreading the photos but Darren made it fun, so many of our photos were laughing.

We got our photos within 3 weeks which is just so amazing, was like reliving the day again. Such a quick turnaround. Would highly recommend using Darren for your weddings and he would be our first point of call for any photography needs in the future. Thank you again Darren

I used Darren as my sole photographer for my wedding day. Myself and my partner were so happy from start to finish with Darren and always at ease and relaxed. Darren is very patient and understanding and listens to any request and adapts amazingly well in any setting.

Darren took so many photos and captured every detail that the photos themselves told the whole story of our wedding step by step! I could put the photos into a slideshow and it would feel like we are living it over again, amazingly beautiful photos capturing every emotion, such a natural feel even to photos posed for photo purposes. My favourites are always the natural photos and we have so, so many! Thank You Darren.

I would say if you are shy, nervous or fully outgoing you will not be disappointed using Darren for any photographer needs you have, he will listen to any request and also advise on photos too. So even if you have no idea you will be in good hands with Darren. Prices are great value for the amount of photo coverage, quantity and quality you get once received after. Highly recommend Darren, he goes that bit further!

Darren captured some really lovely wedding memories for us, we are so grateful for his patience and professionalism. It was a challenging and very hot day with a few last minute changes! Darren kept his cool and totally put us at ease. Highly recommended by myself and my husband.

Darren is a brilliant and very friendly photographer to work with. We had a cake smash photo shoot for my 1 year old and had a great time. The end photos were brilliant and Darren was helpful in regards to placing orders and for answering any questions we had before the photo shoot. I would highly recommend Darren Gritton and would not hesitate to use his photography skills again!

What a guy! Darren captured some amazing photos at our wedding and was very patient as most of our wedding guests were children!

Darren was amazing from start to finish! Communication before the wedding was phenomenal and took a lot of stress of my shoulders. Darren also fit me in for the morning of the wedding photos at short notice!

Darren was polite and to be honest the most friendliest photographer I’ve met! Myself and partner are both very shy people but Darren made us feel completely at ease.

We would highly recommend Darren! And would most definitely ask Darren to be our photographer again in the future.

Thank you Darren.

We were lucky enough to have Darren photograph our wedding. We've received the photos back within 2 weeks and couldn't be happier with the results.

They were exactly what we were looking for and more and he really captured the day beautifully. He put us at ease and we thoroughly enjoyed working with him on the day. We were very happy with how it all came together. The photographs were incredible and we would highly recommend his services.

Darren was our wedding photographer and we were absolutely blown away by what he captured on the day. He is very experienced, professional and our photos arrived so quickly after our wedding.

He has a lovely, calm nature and puts guests at ease and is very flexible to work to your requests. From the point of booking, Darren was very thorough and detailed, meaning the day is looked after. We would 100% recommend Darren for future clients.

Darren is an amazing photographer, made us feel at ease, quality of the photos are 1st class and we had to postpone due to Covid. Darren was more than happy to change the date for us, his communication has been excellent. We would highly recommended Darren to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Thank you so much Darren - 5 stars

Darren was our wedding photographer 3 weeks ago. From meeting Darren prior to the wedding and on the day we were at ease. Darren was very accommodating with our photos and a real pleasure to have with us on the day. Our guests commented about how friendly he was. We received all our photos a week later. We are so pleased with them. We would highly recommend Darren.

Darren was professional, friendly and put us all at ease at our wedding. The photos were beautiful and processed exceptionally quick so everyone can enjoy them.

It was a wonderful day and now thanks to Darren's hard work we have beautiful photos to remember it all.

Thank you for all you've done! Xxx

Darren done the photography for our wedding 8.4.22 and I absolutely love everyone of them, the whole day was captured perfectly! Thank you so much Darren for helping us build some beautiful memories, I can't wait to show our friends and family!

We had Darren to photograph our wedding day 4/3/22 and he was amazing. A lovely guy who is patient (our day was quite hectic!) and was very calming and considerate. We had our sneak peek photo within a couple of days and full set of photos in 2 weeks. All through our wedding journey Darren was great, we had 3 postponements due to covid and he was very accommodating and understanding and we finally got there on date 4.

We highly recommend Darren for all your photography needs!

We had a amazing photoshoot with Darren. He made us feel very relaxed. Ellis had such a fun time. Darren even let him take some photos. The photos were absolutely stunning. We highly recommend Darren.

We had a great family photo session with Darren. With my rather lively family he was patient but still great fun, this allowed us to get some really lovely natural photos where all their characters were able to shine through. Thank you so much for capturing life long memories, I will be happy to have on my wall for many years to come.

It was a pleasure working with Darren for my fitness business photos! He’s a brilliant photographer, great person & true professional to work with.

Absolutely great service from Darren! We booked him for our wedding while there were still some restrictions from the lockdown but Darren bent over backwards to ensure that we got the very best photos of the big day.

He was also very efficient at getting our photo albums ready for us to view on the online gallery and has always been very quick at responding to any questions either of us had.

Thank you Darren for making one of the most anticipated part of the day seem so easy and natural, it was just how we wanted it.

Best Photographer - Darren Gritton

Best Venue - Southlands Barn

Darren is such a genuine and friendly person! My partner and I both hate having our photos taken, but Darren made us feel calm and guided us into the best poses for our wedding shots. The photos are incredible and extremely professional! I would recommend him to anyone.

I believe we were Darren’s first wedding after lockdown restrictions eased but with social distancing in place. We were all new to this and as you can imagine we expected it to be a little strange. But I couldn’t have been happier and Darren put us at ease with his friendly positive approach, we had a laugh throughout and the pictures were beautiful, Darren really has a good eye for capturing those truly happy moments. Thank you Darren for helping to make our wedding even more perfect x

Darren is a lovely photographer and nothing is too big or small of a problem to do. He was so good with my children and they loved having him taking care photos before the wedding. I’ve seen one photo and it’s gorgeous and I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos!! Thank you so much Darren.

We had such a fabulous experience being photographed by Darren to celebrate our little lady’s first birthday. he was extremely patient, great vision and put us all at ease. He is an excellent photographer and we couldn’t believe how well all the photos came out. Can't wait to use him again for future family shoots and would recommend to anyone!

I had the pleasure of working with Darren last week, where he provided excellent headshots and candid photos of my team and I who are based in Brighton. Darren was incredibly professional, caring and had high attention to detail. My directors were very impressed with Darren's work and will continue to use him for new starters. I highly recommend Darren and I look forward to working with you again!

Darren was an amazing find. He travelled all the way from Sussex to Barnsley to capture our wedding! He really got to understand us and worked with us ahead of the wedding to ensure he delivered and boy he did. So under the radar you don’t realise he is there but gets pictures which records the feeling and atmosphere of such an important day. We now have a record of such wonderful memories. Thanks Darren.

When I first saw our photos they made me cry with happiness because honestly, it felt like I was reliving every moment. Our wedding photos are the best I have ever seen (if I do say so myself) – so much joy, love and colour. Just magic. I should also add that Darren is wonderful – so kind, relaxed and natural… Thank you so much Darren – a precious gift you gave us! xx”

Darren is a wonderful guy, genuine, warm and understanding. he is also a fantastic photographer. I would highly recommend Darren to anybody. Thank you so much for making our day full of fun and laughs and for taking some wonderful photos that we will look back on with great fondness!
