"Bret, you have done a fantastic job of taking my portrait! Thank you so much! My academic website and listings now look so much more professional. I was delighted to have control over the location and set up of the photos. I can't believe how much patience you showed, and how you were prepared to retake the shots until we were both happy, and THEN to get the files on the same day - amazing service!"

From Pennyless 26/09/2009:
"Bret came to our attention with his portraits of us playing on the acoustic stage at the Stamford Riverside Festival. Unknown to us as we played, with a very quick eye and without knowing us or our music he captured our performance with startling accuracy and wit. We were amazed to see ourselves as the audience do, and really excited by the idea of commissioning a portfolio by him
We arranged two photo-shoots with the aim of portraying us as musicians in a variety of environments, the emphasis being on natural light and surroundings. We wanted a collection of photographs which we could use on advertising material and on a CD, and it was very important that the images reflected our music and personalities with imagination but above all honesty. The end result is a set of superb photographs taken in rural Lincolnshire and the beautiful Georgian town of Stamford, where we both spend many hours walking and playing respectively
Working with Bret was easy; he immediately understood what we were hoping to achieve and set about his work efficiently and above all without any stress! He made us feel at ease, and was open to all our ideas as well as guiding us with a photographers' eye. We are extremely pleased with the results of his work and would keenly recommend him as an imaginative and sensitive artist.
Thank you Bret.

From Emmaline Holyoake 20/09/2009:
"After Bret did an amazing album for our wedding day by capturing the perfect photos we were so hoping for, we were very keen to ask him to take photos for our God-daughters Christening. We wanted to give the gift of an album, for both our God-daughter and her mother to remember her special day. Again we were really taken back by beautiful photos and so impressed with Bret's ability to always capture the precious moments. The album was wonderful, thanks so much."
