HI BRENDAN
JUST WANTED TO SAY A MASSIVE THANK YOU FOR MY GORGEOUS PHOTOGRAPHS OF MY DOG ELLIE, SHE IS SO PRECIOUS TO ME AND NOW THAT SHE IS ILL AND MY TIME WITH HER IS LIMITED, THESE PHOTOGRAPHS MEAN I WILL NEVER FORGET HER OR WHAT HER PRETTY LITTLE FACE LOOKS LIKE. YOU MANAGED TO CAPTURE SO MANY OF HER LOOKS FROM HAPPY TO SAD, SHES SUCH A CUTIE!

INITIALLY WHEN I MADE THE BOOKING WITH YOU I WAS NERVOUS ABOUT HOW ELLIE WOULD BE AS SHE HATES GETTING HER PICTURE TAKEN, WHY I WORRIED I DON’T KNOW !!!! YOU REALLY HAD A SPECIAL WAY WITH HER AND SHE WAS REALLY RELAXED DURING THE PHOTOSHOOT. SO THAT PUT ME AT EASE !

I COULD NOT RECOMMEND YOU HIGHLY ENOUGH AND THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE REALLY SOMETHING I WILL TRESURE FOREVER. NOTHING WAS TOO MUCH TROUBLE FOR YOU AND YOU PUT A LOT OF TIME PATIENCE AND EFFORT INTO MAKING SURE EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT AND JUST THE WAY I WANTED.

ALL IN ALL THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WAS SO MUCH FUN AND I WOULD DEFINETLY DO IT AGAIN IN THE FUTURE. YOU ARE HILARIOUSLY FUNNY AND MADE BOTH ELLIE AND I FEEL SO COMFORTABLE.

ONCE AGAIN BRENDAN, FROM THE BOTTOM OF OUR HEARTS THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MY FANTASTIC PICTURES AND MOST OF ALL THE MEMORIES WHICH I WILL NEVER FORGET

LOVE
KELLY AND ELLIE XXX

I met Brendan at the Pet Expo in the RDS, I had been thinking about getting a professional photograph taken of my two dogs.
I really liked the photographs Brendan had on display and what was equally important was that he was funny and pleasant to talk to!

I organised a photo shoot with Brendan and he came to my home and met my two dogs, I wasn’t too sure what to expect as I hate being photographed, but Brendan was great, the dogs really liked him and he was hilariously funny. He must have taken nearly 180 photos! He had a way of grabbing the dogs attention and they really enjoyed it, it was a very enjoyable afternoon.

Normally a photographer takes the photos and that is it, you see them and then order what you want, but this is not the case with Brendan. He wants to make sure that you are happy with the photos you order and will spend time going over them, changing backgrounds, airbrushing blemishes!! Etc.

I cannot recommend Brendan highly enough, he is thoroughly professional at his job and is so pleasant to have in your home.

Thanks Brendan for the fabulous photos you took of my dogs! I will certainly have them well after their life time.
Best Wishes, Orla

I meet Brendan after recieving one of his gift vouchers as a christmas pressie .
I was anxious at first as my dogs are quite shy an can find it hard to warm to strangers,I should never have worried from the moment he arrived Brendan showed such paitents and calmness towards them they soon were won over by his charms!!!. He spent the whole day with us and by the evening had captured some beautiful photos. I am absoloutley thrilled with my picture every time i pass it on the wall it makes me smile an is now such a precious memory that will still be there in years to come , so THANK YOU BRENDAN from the bottom of our hearts I can honestly say it was the best christmas pressie I ever got .

I met Brendan in the RDS at the 'Pet Expo 2007' show and what attracted me to his stand was the uniqueness of his photographs in that they captured owner and their pet in a very easy relaxed way and the pictures just looked like they were a lot of fun in the making. They captured the love of the owner for their pet.
I decided to use him to take some pictures of my son and dog together as my 9 year old loves his dog. What struck me about Brendan when he came to my home some weeks later was the ease in which he let things happen on the day and the way he was with the kids in my house that day. He had a great way with everybody he met and you could see he just loves animals which came out in the photographs he took. He is a very friendly, funny, entertaining guy and you feel like you've known him for a long time, so I was completely at ease and so was everybody else.

He ended up taking about 150 photographs which I could then chose my favourites from. He helped me in deciding which ones to select and what frames would suit those particular photos.

One of the photos he took which I have framed in my living room was so good it featured in the Irish times in Feb 2008

So all in all I would say the whole experience was great.

Many thanks, Paula, Coco and Bess”

Hi Brendan,
Henrik here, the blonde Labrador that you took photos of a couple of weeks ago. My owners Deborah and Holly said the photos you took are the nicest and bestest that they have ever seen (and they are experts ‘cause they have millions of pictures of me), you even managed to make them look nice….woof woof!

Deborah and Holly were so surprised that I didn’t even bark at you when you called to the door (NOT EVEN ONCE). They were more surprised that I behaved like an angel during the photo shoot even when I was tired and wanted to snooze I sat up, wagged my tail and smiled at you. They didn’t realise that it was because you were so calm, kind, reassuring and friendly that I decided that I would behave…..and boy do you give the bestest belly rubs!!! I was sad to see you leaving but I know we will meet again because I heard Deborah saying that when she is getting another professional photo of me she is going to use you…….I can’t wait.

Tonnes and Tonnes and Tonnes of licks, pants and slobbery kisses,

Your forever friend,

Henrik, aka “The Henk”

Hi Brendan,
Thanks so much for taking the photos of Millie with my son and I. It really captured how we feel about her and that she is very much part of our family. Millie is a Therapy Pet with PEATA as you know and the photos you gave us to leave at the hospitals she visits is much admired and appreciated by all who know her and enjoy her company.

We have a new addition to the family and I think later this year we will have to invite you back for the next photo on the wall...

Thanks from Rory and Laura
