Amazing

Dash instantly made us feel at ease at our pre-wedding meet. His calm manner and happy spirit lifted our anxieties immediately. On the day he was amazing at coordinating our crazy families and was laughing and joking with everyone all day without getting in the way. He captured the whole day perfectly and every photo and video has captured us as a couple perfectly. Can’t recommend enough.

Please look at Dash Photography. They are amazing!

Dash being our photographer was a significant part of why our wedding day was such a great day! We were worried because neither of us is photogenic, but throughout the day he and Steve took dozens of photos that flattered us, where we look happy, natural and relaxed. We also realised during the day that, when you hire a photographer, you’re not only looking for someone who can take amazing photos, you also want someone who interacts well with you and your guests; Steve and Dash have a ‘perfect’

Amazing Experience

Dash made me and my partner feel so at ease and made having our photos an enjoyable part of our day, all our guests said how nice Dash was and he was very well organised. He got what he needed to do without any interruption to our day or schedule. We recieved our photos back in 2 weeks from our wedding and we got a sneak peak a couple of days after. Cant thank Dash enough for capturing some amazing memories for us and i would highly recommend getting in touch with Dash if you want a proffession

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 :-)

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).
