Bren fit in like an old friend

Bren fit in like an old friend, had quite clearly paid lots of attention to our booking request for the specific shots etc that we wanted, bringing some up on the day that we had forgotten about ourselves amongst all the excitement of the day. We got our photos back very quickly, all perfectly edited and easily downloadable to computer and mobiles. We couldn’t be happier - thank you so much Bren!

We can't thank Bren enough for all of his efforts

Bren stayed with us from getting ready through to our shot trolley party late on the evening! He managed to get all of the photos we had asked for and many many more!! We can't thank Bren enough for all of his efforts and are so happy with how our wedding album has turned out. Beautiful photographs of a beautiful venue! Thank you Bren!

Bren was beyond amazing.

5 stars don't really seem to do this justice. Bren was beyond amazing. We loved having him as part of our wedding, and that's what it felt like. He was super friendly and made everyone feel at ease. He got stuck in and all of our guests loved him, as did we! I still can't believe it's us in the photos. We're so happy with them and they just capture the day so perfectly with so much emotion in each shot it's like reliving the day. 100% recommend!

Bren was relaxed and friendly and took our dream photos!

We are so pleased with Bren’s photos of our wedding, they’re so beautiful, such high quality, and really easy to access after the wedding! Bren himself was so cheerful, friendly and relaxed, and helped us to relax when taking our pictures! He has great communication and is really reliable. We honestly can’t recommend him enough. Thank you again Bren!

I honestly wish I could give Brendan more than 5 stars!

I honestly wish I could give Brendan more than 5 stars! We got married on the 30.10 and we was lucky enough to have Brendan and Andras with us to capture every moment of the day from 11am - 7.30pm. The photos are everything that we hoped they would be and so much more, we asked for natural photos and not staged and they are perfect. All of our guests commented on how lovely Brendan and Andras are and how it felt so good not to have the pressure of staged photos, 99% of the time you wouldn’t have even known your picture was being taken! Thank you both so much for all of your hard work on the day! I could not recommend O’Hara photography anymore to you if you are looking to have the perfect photographer for your wedding day who are an absolute delight to be around

Brendan is amazing! He absolutely went above and beyond his call of duty

I could not recommend anyone more than Brendan for what will surely be one of the most important days of your life. Brendan is amazing! He absolutely went above and beyond his call of duty, filled us with confidence and completely putus at ease about how incredible the end results would be. Not only where the photographs flawless (giving us both some amazing posed shots and a plethora of candid moments too,) but he was also available to chat, email, meet up and run through ideas in the run up to the big day. His enthusiasm for the job is only matched by his top notch demeanour, personality and friendly attitude. I could not recommend anyone more than Brendan for what will surely be one of the most important days of your life. Thanks Brendan! Jake & KJ.

Brendan is kind, funny and an absolute professional at his job

Brendan is kind, funny and an absolute professional at his job-he was absolutely fantastic from start to finish although I feel this doesn't quite do him justice! Brendan always replied promptly when we were in touch and no question ever posed any issue. When we postponed Brendan was beyond understanding and completely accomodating. Throughout the wedding day our guests commented on how wonderful Brendan was, making everyone feel comfortable which is reflected in the stunningly beautiful images he managed to capture. The photos are beyond what we ever could have imagined- so so happy and would recommend Brendan without a second's hesitation. A fantastic photographer and a fantastic person!

On the day Bren was so professional and funny

On the day Bren was so professional and funny, he clicked with us and our guests straight away. I could see him capturing every detail which I really loved. He had amazing ideas for what would create beautiful pictures. The editing after the wedding was SO quick and we have now received them all. We are so very much impressed, they are just even more beautiful than I ever imagined. We really do have so many stunning pictures to treasure forever thanks to Bren. Thank you again! Definitely recommend!

FAQs
Find out a bit more from our FAQs

What is your most memorable wedding?

We've had so many, but the one wedding that really stands out for us was a wedding held in Hornsea, East Yorkshire. The town really came together for the bride and groom, and helped with flowers and setting up venues. It was a unique wedding in that it had a bohemian theme, and was featured in a wedding magazine.

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Our style is documentary, candid and natural. We go against the old fashioned style of posing, and rather capture the memories throughout the day.

What about your business are you most proud of?

We are most proud when a bride and groom tells us what a great job we did. We are very personable, and we've been told that our energy and friendliness added to the day.

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

It was a collage of photos of the bride and groom, from when they met right through to the wedding.

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

A photo on Bridlington Spa stage. We had the theatre to ourselves, and we tried different styles.

What do you recommend for a rainy day wedding?

Umbrellas.

Describe how you got into photography.

First started with photography back in college here in the UK and I also studied a little film in the United States. I am also a web designer, and photography goes hand in hand. By 2009 we were asked to photograph our first wedding, and everything just naturally flowed. We photographed more weddings, worked with Google, York Racecourse, the University of York and the University of Hull. We have now attended over 200 events and weddings throughout the years.
