“PROFESSIONAL, FRIENDLY, WITH OUTSTANDING RESULTS!

I work alongside Tony at two local grassroots sports clubs, Rimington FC and Clitheroe Wolves FC. Tony has also worked for me at the Asmir Begovic Goalkeeping Academy. Every time we work with Tony he comes up trumps!

His creative skills and attention to detail are second to none, and I would have NO hesitation in recommending his services to anyone who is looking for a friendly, professional and easy to work with photographer.

Thank you again Tony - here’s to many more projects together!”

“Tony has a very good eye for detail. When I saw some of his work the quality persuaded me to hire Tony to photograph myself and my business premises for my website. Using different techniques he managed to capture the calming essence of my counselling service.

Tony’s professionalism convinced me to employ his services again on behalf of the East Lancashire Football Association, for whom I am a committee member. We asked Tony to photograph a local grassroots football Cup final day, two back to back matches at Padiham FC including the pre-match build up and crowd interaction. Tony was prompt upon arrival and captured the action brilliantly, conveying the movement and flow of both games as well as the atmosphere at the ground. This helped us to promote both the League and the participating teams, giving much needed exposure to them all.

From this experience I know that Tony received a lot of very positive reviews of his work, with a number of teams contacting myself asking if they could have his contact details in order to use him as their official club photographers. Tony eventually became club photographer to Rimington FC and I know they are delighted with his work and the support he gives the club.

I highly recommend Tonys services - you will not be disappointed if you decide to hire him.”

“I contacted Tony regarding his photography services on the recommendation of my friend Steven who coaches a junior football team at the club which my husband is Chairman for. My husband also coaches at the club, and two of my sons play for them also. Tony came along to one of the matches and met the players parents and the team themselves, explaining what he hoped to achieve and then getting to work straight away.

My husband and I, as well as the other players parents, were delighted with the shots Tony took for us. We invited him along to another game in which our son and Stevens son were both playing, and again Tony produced some fantastic work for us, capturing the match perfectly and ensuring that all of the children playing were given attention.

Since then our family, as well as the ‘football family’ have become friends with Tony and we use his services regularly. He always tries his hardest to ensure that we receive the photographs from the matches on the same day, he has travelled to many away games with the team, and has come along to shoot us at a football festival in Fleetwood for an entire day. Tony also photographed the Club Presentation Day, a full day event at the end of the season.

If you’re looking for a sports photographer, give Tony a call……..you won’t regret it!”

Club Chairman, Rossendale Valley Junior Football Club

“Since I started my own business over three years ago, Tony has been my primary photographer. His eye for a great shot and his attention to detail are outstanding. He’s also brilliant at getting the best out of the weather and available conditions with his creative thinking and use of angles.

He’s a fantastic ‘people-person’ and his great sense of humour puts others at ease and make him a joy to work with. Out of all of the photographers whose services I’ve used both directly and indirectly, Tony ALWAYS produces the best photographs in my opinion. He’s fantastic at taking on board my requests and ideas but is also at times able to offer more technically minded ideas and thoughts to ensure that we get the best possible images for my business.

Other than being a ‘Southerner’ I cannot find fault with the man or the service he provides - an all-round good egg (with a funny accent!)”

“We used Tonys services last year for my son and daughters joint birthday party and were blown away with the attention to detail while he photographed our family. Every picture captured a memory we’ll treasure forever. Nothing was too much to ask of him and he was fab at getting natural as well as planned shots of us all.

We had Tony back again this year for another joint birthday party for the two children. We received the edited photos the following day are again they were just amazing!

We wouldn’t use anyone else now. Tony is lovely, genuine and very professional. thank you once again for an amazing service. Highly recommended.”

“I’m the coach of an U15s grassroots football team with Rossendale Valley Junior Football Club. For the last three years now myself and other club coaches have had the pleasure of Tony taking photographs of our teams, both during matches and at club events. The quality of the photographs he produces are amazing and the players absolutely love the action shots that he gets of them.

He’s very reliable…..in fact he’s always at the venue WAY before most people arrive, and he’s never once let us down. He’s always respectful to the opposition teams, introducing himself to their coaches and requesting permission to shoot the game, as well as doing the same with the referees. He ensures that all players are happy to be photographed, and if any say no or parents do not give consent then he makes sure to avoid capturing those children.

Tony has captured so many treasured memories for all of the children and their families as well as the club. I’ve also had a few shots of my son which Tony took printed, framed and put up on my walls at home. We wouldn’t use anyone else to photograph our teams now and he’s become part of my teams ‘family’.”

“I highly recommend Tonys photography services. I recently bought two exquisite prints of my favourite place, Townley in Burnley, and these are now framed and proudly displayed within my home. The colours and clarity of the woodland scenes are stunning, and i’m very happy with my purchase. Thank you Tony!”

“Tony is a very talented and professional snapper!

For the last couple of years I have bought calendars which he has produced showing images of Lancashire and the North-West. His work is so good that I had no hesitation in asking him if he would photograph my sons Baptism in 2022. Tony absolutely SMASHED this!

The number of quality images we received from our sons special day was amazing. Tony was very considerate, discreet and respectful to the Service and the church members and congregation, and the priests and my family commented on how kind, thoughtful and respectful he was.

Tony was at the church early (very early!) and I received the edited images the following day.

I’d like to thank Tony for his hard work and the beautiful photographs which will help us to treasure what was a very special day for our family.”
