We honestly cannot recommend Brendan enough. He helped my now fiancé organise the most incredible surprise engagement, and every single detail was thought of so perfectly. From planning the setup to making sure everything ran smoothly, we would have been completely lost without him. Not only did he help and play along with the surprise, but he captured the most amazing photos that we will treasure forever. He managed to document the moment so naturally while still making us feel totally comfortable. We loved working with him so much that we also used Brandon for our engagement party, and once again he was absolutely brilliant. Professional, calm, creative, and genuinely lovely to work with. If you’re looking for a photographer who goes above and beyond and truly cares about your memories, Brendan is the one.
Brendan Gallagher was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. He photographed our engagement at the Rabbit Hotel, and we could not have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met him, Brendan was incredibly friendly, engaging, and easy to be around. He brought so much laughter and energy to the shoot, which instantly put us at ease and made the whole experience genuinely enjoyable. His professionalism was clear throughout — he knew exactly how to guide us, capture natural moments, and make everything feel relaxed rather than staged. The balance he struck between fun and professionalism was perfect, and it truly shows in the quality of his photography. We are beyond grateful for the memories he captured for us and would recommend Brendan without hesitation to anyone looking for a photographer who is not only exceptionally talented but also a pleasure to work with. An absolute top-class photographer.
Having Brendan do our wedding photography was one of the best decisions we could have made. Brendan was so easy to communicate with and was extremely accommodating to our requests. Brendan brought a great atmosphere to the day, keeping us all smiling and laughing throughout and keeping the day flowing extremely well. Even when myself and my husband started getting tired and were reluctant to go to the second location we had initially agreed upon, Brendan convinced us that we would regret it if we didn't go, and based on the teaser photos he has sent us so far, he was right! If you're looking for a photographer who will bring the banter, keep you completely at ease and produce amazing photos, Brendan is your man. Thanks so much, Brendan!
My wife and I eloped in Ireland, and we feel so lucky to have been able to work with Brenden! From the start, he was very responsive and professional while being so warm and genuine. He truly took to heart what we were looking for and was incredibly helpful with suggestions as well. The wedding day was windy and rainy, but Brendan made us feel beautiful, kept us laughing, and made the whole thing so fun! His creativity in finding locations and capturing stunning images is incredible, and we felt much like we were spending time with an old friend who just so happened to be a wildly talented photographer. We cannot say enough good things about Brenden and his work, and are truly over the moon to have found an LGBTQ+ inclusive photographer to capture this special day. I could go on forever, but the images speak for themselves.
We couldn't have asked for a better photographer for our wedding in April 24. I loved Brendan as soon as I met him - he made me feel so relaxed and I immediately felt we were in good hands. He is so friendly and really funny which made all our guests relax and enjoy his banter. We got married near a couple of waterfalls and Brendan was happy to climb over fences and get his feet dirty to ensure we got the pictures we wanted. He had great attention to detail without being at all intrusive and was really organised when it came to all the group shots. I would highly recommend Brendan as a photographer and we are so happy with the service he provided and the pictures he took at our wedding. Many of our guests also remarked on how great the photographer was. Thank you so much Brendan.
