Feedback
Conor is a fantastic person to have on site at a festival. Not only does he know how to take incredible photographs of live bands, he can capture complete atmospheres in one shot. As a fashion brand, it is vital to have our presence at events captures on camera, and Conor achieved this with ease. His work has been used on our websites and internally as an important marketing tool - Kayley Pearce - (Marketing Executive for Bench - Official Fashion Partner of Liverpool SoundCity, Parklife, Les Eurockéennes, Melt!, Creamfields and Warehouse Project)
Conor's honest, easy going and friendly nature makes clients feel relaxed and open even on high pressure shoots, yet disguises his hardworking attitude. He's a professional, dedicated and creative assistant, understanding both the technical detail and the artistic etiquette. I can't recommend Conor highly enough, he's a great addition to any photographer's shoot and has become not just an assistant but a highly valued friend. - Shirlaine Forrest (www.shirlainephotos.co.uk)
