I worked with Glen to photograph some dancers in garments for my businesses Social Media (Keto Dancewear). Glen was very professional and easy to work with - before, during and after the photoshoot(working around our tricky schedule)Once we had made the selections after the shoot of the photos we liked he did some retouching (light clean up- very natural looking) and sent back our photos much quicker than we expected. They are perfect! Exactly what we were after, a great experience all round!

Glenn captured finalists and guests at our 2018 Three Minute Thesis competition final (a corporate event held in the evening), and was a pleasure to work with. Highly responsive in the lead-up to the event, Glenn was on-time, professional, took charge when required (to direct subjects), polite and friendly. He also managed to edit and email us event photos on the same day, which was wonderful. Very happy with his work, wouldn't hesitate to recommend to others.

I have known Glenn for several years through our work in the media. He's a great photographer who easily adapts to whatever he is covering. Glenn is polite, respectful and friendly. He's also excellent at helping people to feel comfortable in front of the camera. Glenn recently took some professional photos of me when I launched my own business. I was incredibly nervous but he made me feel at ease and relaxed, which led to better photos. I'd recommend Glenn to anyone.

The images Glenn captured as my wedding photographer were incredible. My husband and I were impressed by his ability to capture the essence of who we are as a couple and the personality of the bridal party. He put a great deal of thought into the locations we shot in and the style of the images. We have received many messages from our friends and family complimenting us on our wedding photos. Glenn was professional, thoughtful and has a real creative flare that is evident from his photographic masterpieces.

Glenn rocked up at our place on Xmas Eve at short notice. Our extended family group of 12 had arrived from all over to celebrate and he performed miracles in a restricted space in a small cottage. Captured some great natural shots including 2 toddlers and a baby. Combinations of all posted 2 days later. Plus a very pleasant and patient personality. Thanks Glenn, great value and a very pleasurable couple of hours.
