David has been absolutely fantastic at refreshing the website photos for our holiday let business. He got many great shots, the quality and resolution is perfect, and he has a really excellent eye for composition.
He really brought out the best of each room, and the views. We are so pleased with the results and a delighted to have them on our website, which is greatly improved thanks to his efforts.
In addition he was such a lovely person to have around, was super flexible (and patient) with us in waiting for great weather. He was very polite and considerate around the properties. We felt very lucky to have used him.
I cannot recommend him highly enough.

David was great to work with. He turned up on time, communicated clearly throughout, and got the job done quickly and smoothly. The whole process was hassle-free, and he was very accommodating — even helping with a last-minute virtual tour. Pricing was reasonable, and overall the end-to-end experience was excellent. I’m very happy with the service and would happily recommend him. More...

We would just like to share our experience with David Hales & his lovely wife Alison. From our first communication we knew that David would be our photographer for our wedding at Chester Zoo… we wanted natural photography capturing moments during the day & David did that, we had a meet up before and planned everything, plans changed but it was no problem. Very professional and we felt David knew how to get the best photos, which he did, we are extremely grateful and we would recommend 100% for any of your photography needs… Thank you both 🙏🏻 With Love from Mr & Mrs Spollin 🥰 xx More...

Xlerate is a free to view rally website covering national rally championships. We needed a photographer to cover the Manx Rally 2024 and to provide some snaps to go with our post rally reports and David reached out to us offering his services. He provided a number of photographs very quickly which we published in our Post Rally reports. Great communication, easy to deal with and easy access to the photos they we needed, it is clear that David is a Motorsport enthusiast just like us which is ideal. Many Thanks Andy Owner of Xlerate.net More...

What’s the secret to taking a great photograph?
My website slogan is : A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.
The key word here is Passion. I am passionate about capturing a moment in time, that stimulates the senses and brings the memories flooding back, when viewed, weeks, months, even years later.
What questions might you ask a client when starting a new project?
What is the single most important quality that will make you engage with and ultimately secure the services of a professional photographer. I am always looking to improve so this feedback is extremely important.
What do you love most about your job?
The diversity of my work/projects. Every genre I engage with brings me to life with enthusiasm to get the right photos.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I retired early and I took the opportunity to turn my passion for photographer into part time business venture.
I worked in big corporates for over 30 years, often in very technical and senior roles. The flexible and diversity of being my own boss drives me each day.
