I'm Dash - I am a full-time professional wedding photographer, I have been photographing weddings since 2008. I respond to enquiries on my website within hours. As it costs photographers to respond to quote requests via bark sometimes I am unable to respond quickly so would recommend to contact me via my website.

Dash was recommended to us by a friend and when introduced we instantly connected and felt so comfortable with him that we booked him as our photographer for our wedding. Dash from start to finish was incredible, he listened to our story and requirements and met them all with great ease. On the day of our wedding Dash was amazing, making all of our family and friends feel super comfortable in his presence. He was so professional but more importantly friendly, funny and a great guy to have part of our day. His photography skills are incredible and because of Dash we have incredible photos/memories that will last a lifetime. We cant thank you enough - Much Love Amy & Dan More...

We booked Dash as our wedding photographer. He was to enthusiastic and creative. He captured the candid moments as well as the posed photos perfectly. We're not comfortable in front of a camera but he put us at ease immediately and directed us clearly when needed. He fit in great with our guests, making everyone laugh, and was patient and understanding with tricky family members. We ordered a digital album and the quality of the images was amazing. They were sent in a week too. We loved spending our day with him and would 100% recommend him to everyone! More...

I was recommended, Dash, by a friend who had used Dash previously for their Wedding .After I wasn’t connecting with other photographers, I instantly connected with Dash and you need to have that connection with your Photographer as you are going to be spending a lot of time with them. Dash listened to what we wanted but he also came up with his own amazing ideas.Dash was honest & truthful, very helpful and always at hand on the build up to our wedding.During our pre shoot , Dash gave us good tips on how we should hold our poses and after the pre shoot , we both felt more relaxed and ready for the day.On the day , Dash couldn’t do enough for us , along with his assistant, daughter Eve, who was always there to help correct my veil and keep everything right .To be honest apart from the formal photos , we didn’t really notice Dash was there taking background photos and all our guests commented on how professional and polite he was.We spent a lot of time with Dash but we never missed out on any part of our celebrations either , Dash is very aware of not keeping you away from your guests .After wards , Dash was very speedy in sending you a few teasers of your day but keeping the best for last when he had our photos turned around within days .We would highly recommend Dash , not only for future celebrations but for awards too.Thank You Dash , Mr & Mrs Meisuria More...

We couldn’t be happier with Dash Photography. The service was excellent from start to finish — professional, friendly, and completely stress‑free. They were on time, communicated clearly throughout, and had such a lovely relaxed style that made everything feel easy with no pressure at all. The turnaround time for our photos was incredibly fast — just one week — and the results were beautiful. We’d highly recommend Dash Photography to anyone looking for a reliable and professional wedding photographer. More...

Dash and his wonderful daughter did an amazing job capturing my dad and stepmam’s wedding day. From the second they came into the room where we were finishing getting ready he made us all feel so calm, especially the bride. The level of professionalism he exhibited throughout the day and night were exceptional and I absolutely cannot recommend him enough to capture a special day. The photos have turned out so wonderfully, and we received them back in a wonderful digital album in just a few days, which it’s utterly insane. Thank you so much Dash and Eve for helping make an amazing day even more magical. More...

We couldn’t be happier with our experience! From the very beginning, he was absolutely incredible. He arranged the entire setup for our surprise proposal in advance, making sure everything was perfect before we even arrived. He captured the proposal itself beautifully, documenting the moment so naturally and authentically. Afterward, he took stunning photos around the Hazelwood Castle grounds, giving us a lovely variety of shots and happily catering to all the specific ideas we had in mind. On top of all that, he sent us the photos the very next day, which meant we could share the special moment with our family and friends straight away. We’re so grateful for his professionalism, creativity, and kindness. Highly recommend! More...

I’ve booked Dash through recommendation from a friend who also had him for their wedding, so I knew I was on to a winner when I was struggling to find the right photographer for our big day. It’s hard to find the right photographer but with Dash I knew he was the one when we clicked straight away after one phone call. After having a meeting with him today , Dash explained everything in fine detail and I have no doubt that our day is going to be prefect because we’ve got Dash doing he’s amazing photography. Dash answered all my questions and always replies to messages quickly . I can’t wait to see the outcome of what Dash will deliver and I already am recommending him to future brides & grooms. More...

Professional and personal, Dash was a breath of fresh air! He did a fantastic job of keeping two usually very camera shy folk feeling comfortable and confident the whole day long. From our first point of contact Dash was always very friendly and approachable, nothing was too much hassle for him. Dash's passion shines through, and it's very clear to see he genuinely enjoys what he does. I would not hesitate to recommend Dash to anyone looking for a photographer for their wedding/events. Thanks again! More...

Dash was absolutely brilliant in making us feel comfortable and capturing our special day. He was incredibly detail orientated from the beginning of the process, offering pre-wedding meetings to understand exactly what we wanted and sharing his process. On the day itself he gave us the space required but was also suggestive of when and where to take the best pictures, hanging back when he needed to and grabbing us for good picture opportunities when he thought best. Overall a lovely person to work with who made the process of getting our picture taken relaxing and enjoyable. We've got nothing but positive recommendations for him. More...

We would highly recommend Dash, he was fantastic at our wedding. We had a good initial conversation and he was always quick to respond to questions when we had them in the build up. The pre-wedding shoot was good fun, it put us at ease with Dash who is friendly and engaging, plus we got some great photos from it. On the day Dash had got there early to take some pre wedding photos and getting ready. He worked through the shots we’d asked to get but in a way which was natural and flowed with the day, he wasn’t fixed or pushy, he adapted with the day as timings inevitably changed and caught a number of surprises our friends and family had planned for us. Dash was with us throughout the day and he was great throughout, as I say always friendly with us and guests, his advice was really good in structuring pictures so we maximised time with friends and family. He worked to get us our photos back to us very quickly too and our guests have really enjoyed seeing the photos on the gallery website. The photos are great and we’ve so many we’ll cherish and a number we think we’ll get in bigger prints and photographs. We also consider Dash to offer really good value for his packages as we’d done plenty of research. Would throughly recommend him. More...

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’ demeanour for their job – assertive, but fun and friendly, meaning everyone enjoyed being part of the photos. They have an eye, and a good imagination, for great photo settings as well as those ‘natural’ moments. Then, to top it off, they had our photos to us just two days after the wedding! Could not have been better! More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
Expression & Timing! There other factors that a photographer can control to make a good picture but I believe how I interact with a client can make the difference between a good photography and a great photograph.
What do you love most about your job?
I love the social aspect of being a photographer and have got to know many clients over the years. I love the creative aspect of photography and trying new techniques to create a unique image.
Why should our clients choose you?
I love what I do - it's more than just a job. I do feel that a key aspect of getting great photos is the photographers ability to put you at ease and get the right emotions and expressions to turn a good photo great! I am a professional photographer, fully insured with back up equipment. I fully plan every event and I am an asset to your wedding day.
