TESTIMONIALS

Yeah, I may be biased, but I have the BEST clients in the entire world! Here's what they have to say about me...


"Brett, I don’t even know where to begin! From the moment I seen your stunning photos on Instagram I just knew I wanted you to capture our special day, and that’s saying something because I looked at a LOT of photographers. Your personality shone through your work and you just seemed so ‘normal’ (in the best way) and I just knew you would be the perfect person to capture our day. Also I just have to say, Brett was totally cool with me giving him a fairly big list of photos I wanted for the day LOL, he definitely took that in his stride.

From the moment you walked in you was like a breath of fresh air and put all of us at ease instantly. You got behind the camera and got to work, it was so natural and effortless yet so professional, all with your fun personality shining throughout. 
You helped direct us without being bossy, all whilst letting us be natural and in the moment. My husband being the most awkward person in front of a camera said you made him look better than what he did - he’s got some absolutely gorgeous shots which I never thought I’d see!

Our photos are absolutely breathtakingly stunning, you managed to capture the entire day perfectly. Looking through them all was like reliving the day and that’s truly the best gift anyone could have given us. Some photos even brought us to tears. There wasn’t just the pretty posey shots, but also shots captured with such emotion. You’re truly an artist at what you do. Everyone has commented not only on how incredible and beautiful the photos are, but also what a nice guy Brett is. Some people even asked me how I knew him, I said instagram! He fitted perfectly into our wedding from the start and can happily say he left as a friend.


Brett gave us a whopping 1711 photos back, 70 preview photos THE DAY AFTER OUR WEDDING and another 60 a couple weeks after. Brett is an absolute machine and so dedicated to his work. What makes it even more special is that Brett is genuinely excited to edit his couples photos and to give them back, this job was made for him and we couldn’t be more happy with our album. He went above and beyond and then some. I am confident in my words when I say that Brett’s easy going, friendly and funny self mixed with his phenomenal photography skills and the ability to fit straight in to a group of people, makes for the PERFECT wedding photographer. Thank you Brett for everything. Love from The Webb’s 🤍"

"Oh Brett! Where do I even begin? I followed Brett on Instagram at the start of my wedding planning journey and was blown away by his photographs and his editing style but unfortunately, we had already booked someone else. When we found ourselves needing a new photographer, I wasn't worried because I knew it meant I'd be able to have Brett instead and luckily he was free!!! I definitely believe everything happens for a reason and I'm so glad we got to have Brett be part of our special day. Communication was always brilliant (mostly him taking the mick out of me on on Instagram!) and I feel like I've known Brett forever.

On the actual day, he was just phenomenal! Totally put us (and everyone) at ease with his personality and captured the most amazing pictures. Everyone kept coming up to us and asking us if we knew Brett personally because he seemed so excited and happy to be there and was so friendly with everyone. That meant the world to us!

Brett even sent me a few sneak peeks early because he knows how excited (and a bit anxious) I was about seeing them and I am blown away by how beautiful they are. I CANNOT wait to get the rest now!

Brett, you are an amazing photographer but an even more amazing person! You were born to do this and we are beyond grateful you were part of our day!

Lots of love from The Kidmans."

"We had the absolute pleasure and privilege of having Brett photograph our wedding in July. From the outset Brett has gone above and beyond for us, not only is his work absolutely incredible, but Brett himself is a top notch fella. From our first video call meeting it was obvious that he is an absolute pro at what he does and he left us feeling absolutely certain that he would capture our wedding beautifully. 

From the moment that Brett arrived at our venue we felt like we had known him all our lives! His relaxed and laid back approach coupled with his brilliant sense of humor and down to earth style put me at ease instantly (which is a miracle given how nervous I was!) Brett worked tirelessly all day capturing every last detail of our wedding, and so many of our guests commented on what a fantastic guy Brett is!

The photographs that Brett has produced for us are nothing short of breathtaking, they are quite simply phenomenal! Brett's work has surpassed all of our hopes, he has brought our memories of the day to life, even reminding us of little details that we had forgotten! He has so skillfully created images that we will treasure forever.

We cannot thank Brett enough for sharing his incredible skill, talent and fantastic personality with us and there is no one that we would have rather shared our day with.

Put simply, there aren't enough words to adequately describe what an absolute expert Brett is and we cannot recommend him highly enough!

A huge and very heartfelt thank you from Perri and Den xxx"

"Book Brett! Don't even bother looking around. I could honestly write an essay on how amazing his photos are, but what a top bloke aswell. I don't know him from Adam and put alot of trust for this stranger to turn up on the day and omg did he do us proud and I've only saw the previews at this point. 

I hate my photo being taken and I can honestly say he has converted me. I loved every second. He made it so easy and fun and did whatever I wanted! My husband felt awkward and embarrassed about having his photo took and was complaining for weeks, but within 10 minutes of shooting he was loving it and has since cried at the preview photos they are that good. He said it was like having a mate with you and he was a great and fun and relaxed. 

In 30 years time you won't care about anything else because he captures these memories beautifully. 

BOOK HIM NOW YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!"

"We could not recommend Brett highly enough!
Not only is he incredibly talented as a photographer he is also a really top bloke! From the moment we first met Brett, his friendly and laid-back approach made us instantly comfortable and at ease with him. He emphasised on the fact that it was our day and that he would just be there to capture it for us. No strict criteria or in depth formalities, he would just be lead by us as to what we did/didn’t want and capture the moments most important to us as a couple.

On the day itself, Brett travelled all the way to Lake Vyrnwy in Wales and was there to capture the day from start to finish. From the morning preparations right until just after the first dance. Any nerves instantly vanished upon Brett’s arrival and were replaced with lots of laughing and joking, making the time fly and having pictures taken fun. Half the time we weren’t even aware he was taking pictures and even when we were, Brett had made us feel so at ease that even the posed pictures became fun and we didn't feel embarrassed or awkward as we had expected.

Not only did Brett take beautiful pictures he managed to capture all of the fun and emotion that was present in the day itself. All of our friends and family commented on how lovely Brett was and he fitted into the wedding party as if he were a guest himself. So much so that our guests gave him a round of applause when it was announced he was heading home. Brett arrived as our photographer and left as our friend!

The very next day we received some pictures on the online gallery giving us a glimpse of our day through Brett’s lens. Gorgeous! Then much to our amazement within 2 weeks of us getting married our online gallery was complete! Incredible work, incredibly quick!

Brett we can’t thank you enough for capturing our day so perfectly and for giving us beautiful photos that hold life long memories that we shall treasure forever.

If you’ve made it this far into the review I applaud you! But in short.. if you want a professional but not pushy photographer that’s super friendly and heaps of fun to capture memorable moments of your special day then Brett is your guy!
Cheers Brett, you’re the best!

"Brett was an amazing photographer from start to finish! From the moment we met him, he was so welcoming and friendly! He answered all of our questions and made us feel so comfortable!

Our wedding pictures are phenomenal and we get them all back within 2 weeks!

Couldn’t recommend a better person for the job! Thank you so much for making our day perfect!"

N & E. Simmons 


"Me and my wife was searching through various photographers for our wedding day when we came across Brett’s portfolio… Brett exceeded our expectations and captured our emotions and moments in time ensuring we will never forget the best day of our lives! He was friendly and slotted in perfectly with the whole service and reception and we couldn’t have asked for anymore from him. He put us at ease from the word go and we would recommend and use him every time and every chance we get! 

Thank you Brett!"

J & I. Smith


"I think it’s safe to say that one of the best decisions we made about our wedding was choosing Brett! After meeting him, a 5 minute chat and looking at his amazing portfolio, we knew he was the guy for us. We wanted a relaxed, fun filled day and Brett checked every single box during his time with us. 

We spent most of the day in stitches of laughter and never for once did my fear of having my photograph taken cross my mind. If anyone ever mentions a wedding photographer, you’ll hear us shouting his name! We are forever grateful."

C & D. Jeram


"The Man, The Myth, The Legend! I can honestly say that our wedding would not have been the same without you Brett! Felt instant comfort, as did everyone else! Went with our crazy flow and got alllllll the shots both silly and serious! If you are looking for a wedding photographer that everyone at your wedding loves then look no further! Not only our photographer but now our friend! The photos speak for themselves! Book this guy!"

A & R. Sherry 


"We were so incredibly lucky to have found Brett and that he agreed to be a part of our special day in the Lake District. From the minute I contacted him I was sure we found the right photographer and he proved us to be absolutely correct!

Brett was so chilled and calm while everything seemed a bit chaotic. He knew exactly what images we was looking to capture, he made us feel completely at ease and relaxed and didn’t miss a shot! We had so many laughs through the day because of Brett and his fabulous personality and he even ventured us out into the Lakes to get that perfect shot! What a guy, he is an absolute gem. My family and I loved having him there with us, he was truly amazing and his passion for the job is clear. Now we have so many beautiful images to look back on forever!

Thank you so much again, if we could give you more than 5 stars it would be a million!"

N & D. Shiers


"I start every wedding as a photographer. I end every wedding as a friend." I read this on Brett's website and I honestly cannot believe how unbelievably true this is! Brett is one of the loveliest, most down to earth, funniest guys I have ever met! 

Brett was recommended to me by a friend and oh how I can't thank her enough for this! The second he walked in on the morning of the wedding, I knew we were in for a fun day! I instantly felt at ease; even when he was snapping away (after expressing my hatred for photos) but Brett's approach is so chilled and relaxed, and at no point in the day did I feel uncomfortable or felt the dread of seeing them afterwards. 

Myself and now husband Billy both hate having our photos taken and I made this explicitly clear to Brett; however seeing the images he captured has completely mind blown us! We keep saying, is this really us? We are in love! Brett, you are something else, because in the 10 years we've been together, we've rarely liked a photo of us together, but the pictures you captured are beyond perfection and we absolutely love them! We can't thank you enough for being a huge part of our day, capturing our day and for being our friend! Somehow you managed to capture all of our 6 millions guests throughout the whole day and we will honestly treasure them forever! 

Can't recommend you enough!"

S & B.  Dell


"I cannot recommend Brett enough! He was our photographer for our wedding last week and he was just incredible. From the moment we spoke to him (5 years ago) to rearranging our wedding three times and then finally meeting him on our big day, Brett has been supportive, understanding and professional. He always responded so quickly to every message and immediately calmed any nerves we might have had.

On the wedding day, many people asked if I already knew Brett beforehand because from the moment he arrives he makes you feel at ease and has you laughing so much. He is so talented and his attention to detail has resulted in the most stunning wedding photos that we will treasure forever.

Brett’s turnaround was so fast! We only had to wait one week for all of our photos back, but he sent us photos everyday after the wedding so we were never kept waiting and wondering what the photos were like. The photos are of the highest quality. They have captured our day perfectly and have allowed us to relive our day all over again!

If you’re looking for a wedding photographer, do not hesitate to book Brett - we are so happy we did! I’ll be recommending him to everyone who is getting married. He really is just the best! Thank you Brett so so much. We will be forever grateful of your talents!"

L & J. Trubshaw


"Brett, you were amazing capturing our special wedding photos on Thursday! You made us feel so chilled throughout the whole day - funny, calm and nothing was too much trouble for you. The sneak peak photos are incredible, you are such a talented photographer and we can’t recommend you enough! Thank you for everything!"

"Where do I start? Brett was amazing on our wedding day. He really made us feel at ease with his sense of humour and easy going personality. Like his website says he will start as your photographer but will 100% leave as your friend. All this shows in his photos and you will not be disappointed."

H  & J. O'Neill 


"Peter and I cannot thank Brett enough for what he has done for us. We had no doubts it was going to be a fun day with him but we didn't expect this much!  The shots are unbelievable! They are everything we wanted and more! Brett created such a laid back but excitement-filled atmosphere and our guests have all commented how wonderful, funny, and easy to work with you are, let's not forget talented!  10/10 would recommend! We'll get you booked in for the 10 year reunion. 

Keep being you buddy, you rock!"

H & P. Burgess


"Brett, from the minute we got engaged in 2016, it was you! You were our wedding photographer before a wedding was even planned. There was never any discussion! Fast forward 6 long (and naggy) years, and you've just delivered our wedding photos. We have always loved and raved about you and your work, but we are blown away by the photographs. From day one you took on board our ideas, likes and dislikes. You got excited with us when we planned something different, and you told me straight when I was being absolutely absurd cough Northern Lights *cough*You listened to my love for trees and greenery and incorporated it beautifully into our photographs 

You are patient, kind, funny and down to earth. You knew exactly what to say to put us at ease and to get us laughing and smiling. You just get us! Some people may think that because you are friends with myself and Jim, that it made your job easier, I wish they knew how stressed you've been about photographing our wedding! The photographs are absolutely amazing Brett. We love every single one of them, I can't stop crying. You have absolutely smashed it. 

Thank you, from the bottom of our hearts. Lots of love, your new clients and lifelong friends." 

L & J. Hurst


"What can I say about Brett? He literally made myself and my husband feel at ease as we’re the most awkward, non-photogenic people ever! We warned him when he met us that it’d be very hard to get a smile out of us, but somehow he still managed to do it! Our guests all said that he was so polite, funny and encouraging during all photos. He has a keen eye for the perfect shots. You just need to trust him and go with the flow! My husband and I found him absolutely hilarious and kind too, which obviously helped us in the long run! He was super helpful and made our kids laugh too (which is hard because they’re shy!). Myself, my husband and all our family absolutely LOVE our photos and they are now currently sitting in all of our houses on our walls! 

Thank you so much Brett!!" 

J & S. Millward


"We were so delighted Brett that you could do our photos after seeing our daughter & son in laws we didn’t want anyone else! both times you delivered truly beautiful images and kept us calm and relaxed throughout the day, you truly are a one off professionally and personally."

L & N. Harvey


"Been friends with Brett for 20 years, our Wedding Day was based around Brett’s availability because the show wasn’t to go on without him! Having known me for such a long time, he knows all about my hang ups & he did everything to satisfy my very picky self from start to finish. Our photos were out of this World so was our Wedding Album, the absolute perfect finishing touch. Brett would definitely be described as the person to light up a room and it couldn’t describe him any better, so comforting, has everybody crying with laughter & just all round a wonderful person. 

1000% recommend, amazing at what he does." 

D & M. Roseblade 


"Honestly made me feel so at ease when doing our photos. Some of the best photos were ones we didn’t even know you were taking Amazing with the kids, got pictures I didn’t even know I wanted, made us laugh, even when we were crying and you captured the best sparkler pictures even though we hadn’t asked for that when booking. 

THE BEST!!!!" 

K & J. Turner


"I 100% recommend Brett James Photography! He took so many amazing, natural photos on our wedding day and we are so pleased with them. He made me and all the family feel at ease throughout the whole day, he has a great sense of humour and mingles with all of your guests! 

If you or someone you know are getting married, message Brett!" 

B & S. Archer


"Cannot Recommend Brett Enough! From beginning to end he was amazing, made everyone feel so relaxed, had us all belly laughing at some point, nothing was too much for him! The photos themselves are outstanding, honestly your dream becomes reality! I cannot stress enough just how nice of a man he is too! Every single person who attended out wedding commented on Brett's work without being asked... speaks for itself! 

Top Bloke, Professional Work, Very Calming, and truly breathtaking photos to last you a lifetime!"
