“Absolutely the best experience my family had with Darren. Such a friendly person and delivered great service from start to finish. I cannot wait to use him again for my family photos and when the time comes for a wedding.”
Cake Smash
Our cake smash sessions are designed to capture your child's personality and create memorable experiences for your family. We provide a variety of props and backdrops to choose from, so you can customise your session to fit your child's unique style.
“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!”
Engagement Photography
Just got engaged? Why not mark this milestone with an engagement photo shoot, capturing beautiful images of you and your partner during this special time.
“Darren went above and beyond for my engagement pictures. Prior to the pictures he was responsive, and helpful with all my questions. For the pictures I didn’t deserve all the patience he had for me. It was England in November, so it was dark and cold and windy. I was running behind because of dealing with family stuff. He was patient and did a great job capturing the moment. He was also quick with the editing process and I had the pictures back in a week.”
Professional Headshot
Whether you are a performer or a business person, a professional headshot can help you secure more work.
“As the Marketing Manager of a big charity, I have always struggled to find a good photographer for our events. Darren has come as a breath of fresh air to us. It is a real pleasure working with him. He has a professional eye and lovely approach. He is friendly and easy-going which makes the work with him a real joy. Thank you, Darren, for the amazing headshot images!”
Seasonal Mini Sessions
We offer seasonal mini photography sessions that are perfect for capturing beautiful images in just 20 minutes. Whether you're looking for a quick family portrait or a fun photo session with friends, our mini sessions are the perfect solution.
“We had a lovely mini photoshoot with Darren at a woodland location when the bluebells were out. Darren took some lovely shots of our family. We are very pleased with the images and cannot wait to get them printed onto canvas and on display in our house. Will highly recommend you. Thank you”
