“Darren is an outstanding event photographer. The organisation I work for has hired Darren previously so I already knew his work ethic and friendly professionalism were top notch. We asked Darren to photograph our wedding and we are so glad we did. His warm, outgoing personality and friendly enthusiasm instantly put our guests at ease, ensuring he got the absolute best out of each photograph. He is a pleasure to have around and went to great lengths to make sure the shoot ran smoothly, and even gave us advice with planning. He also took time to research the locations we were shooting in and was available when we had questions in the lead up to the event. On the day, he handled any ad hoc photo request we threw at him at a moment’s notice, capturing our multi-location event with over 100 guests with aplomb. The pictures he delivered are gorgeous and are something we will treasure. They not only look great they are warm, engaging and fun! If you want the job done professionally, attentively and with good humour, Darren’s your man!”

“We had Darren do all of our corporate headshots for our website. He made all of our staff comfortable immediately making the entire process easier than ever expected. He was so accomodating every step of the way. I highly recommend Darren as someone who will make the process and outcomes smoother than ever before”

“We engaged Darren for our Pre-Wedding Party and our actual Wedding Day and could not have been happier. Darren is an awesome photographer and an awesome and engaging person as well. The photographs themselves were of exceptional quality and Darren took a lot of care to understand our needs before the event to make sure he handled everything perfectly. We couldn’t ever imagine choosing a better photographer for our wedding and I’m sure anyone who engages him for their event will not be disappointed”

"Darren was so wonderful to work with. He was patient, professional, flexible, creative, friendly, warm and funny, was great with the kids and his photos were really beautiful. His efficiency on editing the photos and dropping them to us was excellent. I would highly recommend him"

"Darren happened upon us a few weeks before our wedding when our original photographer had to cancel, and I am so glad they did! Not only was Darren professional, he mixed in so easily with our crowd and had such an amazing energy that even the camera shy folks gravitated towards him for photo opps. We knew he was great on our day and after when our family and friends were commenting how he must have snapped heaps of photos and just how nice he was. Soon after we received our photos, and man were they perfect! His eye, his ease, his ability to capture folks naturally and the work he shared was just amazing. We've since shared some of our photos and the response has been overwhelming about how great they are and how everyone can feel the energy shining through. Bravo, Darren!"

“I had the pleasure of having Darren do the photography for a training I ran. His approach is specific to what you are looking for. The quality of his work is extremely evident and the precision in knowing exactly what you want is achieved. I also had the pleasure of being interviewed on his podcast and found his professionalism shined through which made the process effortless. I would highly recommend Darren for your photography or podcast needs”

“Darren is an all-rounder! As a photographer, he has captured candid natural shots at an alumni function, made my team feel at ease for head-shots and taken professional photos for marketing our college. I had the pleasure of being interviewed for his podcast and he made me feel relaxed and comfortable - it was like chatting with an old friend. Darren has designed a social media course which I am currently undertaking with some colleagues which is tailored to our needs. It has been an informative, relevant and fun and I look forward to learning more. If you are looking for a professional who is also a genuinely "nice guy", look no further than Darren Saul!”

I have always found Darren to be generous with his time, extremely knowledgeable and incredibly patient in all my dealing with him.
