TESTIMONIAL

“Had a fantastic day with Darren that was totally dedicated to my requirements, which he discussed with me in detail in advance. The two standouts were, firstly, the encyclopaedic knowledge Darren has of this region of Ireland which enabled him to take me to new angles on well-known locations and completely unknown places off the beaten track. All without having to walk more than 5 minutes from the car and adapted to the weather conditions on the day. Secondly Darren quickly worked out what my capabilities were and set about pushing me to try new techniques and to positively push my photographic limits. Darren knew when to leave me alone and when to intervene. Nothing was too much trouble for Darren with a full summertime dawn-to-dusk experience, transport in his vehicle and a plentiful food and drink supply”
