Barley Monks Photography

Nick recently did a wonderful job taking photos for our extended family. He was really easygoing but professional, with a great outdoor location recommendation and the grandparents in particular are very pleased with the results. The shoot itself went quickly and smoothly - perfect with the very active little grandkids. Pre and post shoot communication was also very efficient and helpful.

What a wonderful experience! Nick was such a great photographer to work with, his relaxed attitude meant that everyone came away from the photo shoot feeling great. We all love the photos and Nick has captured the family perfectly.

Nick is an exceptional photographer with an eye for detail. From the moment we met he made my family and I feel very comfortable. He has an eye for detail and manages capture 'moments' rather than just take photos.... He definitely bought out the best in our family and we are thrilled with the end result. Thank you Nick

Nick recently photographed our family in our home. The experience was wonderful and the photos so precious as they are honest, natural and joyous. Nick was not only highly professional, but an all around nice guy and very easy to work with. I hope he becomes our family photographer for years to come.

We had family photos taken by Nick and it was such a great experience. Communication was great and he was very accommodating. We all felt very comfortable and relaxed during the session. The photos are amazing ! Nick was able to capture lots of beautiful moments for us and they all look so natural and perfect. Highly recommended and we look forward to having more photos with Nick in the future.

Nick has been taking beautiful family photos for our family for a number of years now. We are always thrilled with the result and he makes it so easy and relaxed. He has great ideas and is happy toincorporate our suggestions. He works really well with kids and overall it is a fantastic experience with outstanding results. We have treasured memories to last a lifetime. The choice of photos are quicklyprocessed and they look beautiful. We wouldn’t use anyone else and can highly recommend Barley Monks photography for any occasion.

I loved working with Nick… he truly has a great talent. My toddler is not a huge fan of ‘strangers’ or being that comfortable in front of the camera so he was constantly hiding behind me, however within 5 minutes of the session Jack was jumping in front of the camera, climbing, roaring like a lion and having a great time! My daughter absolutely loved it too, she said Nick was so fun & loved telling our family & friends how Nick got her & her brothers to lick mummy’s face  Nick captured beautiful moments of love & laughter with myself and my kids and it was such a special day making new memories & photos that I will treasure forever. It was a great morning & great experience! Thankyou Nick!

We absolutely love the family photos taken by Nick recently. Not only it is an amazing experience, Nick is great in capturing all the motion and happy faces in a very natural way, fantastic! Definitely are the greatest family photos we ever have. Thank you Nick for giving me and my family such a nice present. We highly recommend him with no doubt!

Nick won my hesitant 4yo over in no time. In fact, my 4yo ended up running the show which meant he was comfortable and ready to be his cheeky self! Nick worked well with the six year age gap between my boys and captured their personalities perfectly. My husband and I now have amazing family photos and we're so greatful. Thank you Nick for being both relaxed and professional at the same time.

Nick was amazing. I love taking photos myself, so my kids really suffer from camera fatigue and they brought a challenge to Nick on our shoot. Nick was extremely patient and not phased at all by them. We just chatted while the boys did their thing and eventually it Nick was just a quiet observer to the kids having their own fun. It was a really easy comfortable afternoon, especially for me, as I’m usually more happy behind the camera instead. I’m truly grateful to get some photos of my eldest before he becomes a grumpy teenager, too cool to smile for photos! Nick has a lovely eye for photography. His ability to respond the moment shines through in his pictures. He captured a gorgeous photo of my youngest lying on the grass, swept up in his own world. The photo says everything about the little introvert that my boy is. Good photographers will see those moments. I recommend Nick for any family portraiture, he will definitely capture photos that you will cherish.
