Claire Waddell Photographer - Brighton Photography

Working with Claire was a fantastic experience from start to finish. She created the website I had envisioned but didn’t have the skills to bring to life myself. What really stood out was how she took the time to truly listen and understand me and what I was trying to communicate. She was incredibly patient, especially during the photo sessions, and made the whole process feel comfortable and collaborative. I’m absolutely thrilled with the result and would thoroughly recommend Claire to anyone looking for a thoughtful, skilled, and creative partner.

The photo's flattered me beyond realty! Claire was 100% committed to getting a great result. She worked tirelessly, creatively, with a sense of play that relaxed and brought me out of myself. I LOVED the attention Claire gave to the preparation, I LOVED the session, and the photographs made me look fabulous. Claire Waddell is a star.

Claire was amazing from start to finish and I highly recommend her skill, talent and work ethic. The Images she took were amazing and felt like they had soul and captured a story, I couldn't be more pleased! Claire's creativity, communication and positivity was a pleasure to be around and we will definitely be coming back to Claire in the future to continue to grow our business, thank you!

I really needed some head shots for an award that I had been shortlisted for, I thought of Claire who I had met briefly at an event. I have never had shots taken before but it was becoming more and more needed. I texted Claire and she immediately got back to me, it was short notice due to my deadline so she juggled her schedule and we met for a session in a discussed location. I could not believe how easy she made the process and the different shots she managed to achieve in a short space of time. She got the images back to me very quickly and we approved the ones I liked and I was able to come out with at least 5 images I could use. For sure having 'proper' photos has made a huge difference to me and I have them now on my folder and can send off easily to promote myself and my business. I would definitely recommend Claire she is very professional and super down to earth and makes it all so easy. Wish I'd done it earlier with Claire and she really got some great photos for me.

Working with Claire was an absolute treat. She combined her photographic creativity with exceptional project management skills and a deep understanding of how to build an authentic, soulful brand. Claire really took on board my brand strategy and prepared for our shoot with incredible attention to detail, helping organise outfits and numerous props. The result was that we were able to create scenes that told stories about me and my brand – all absolutely on point. I’d describe Claire as a photographic artist with a mastery of natural light. She worked tirelessly on the day of our shoot to capture my images. Claire was able to think creatively when the light levels changed, cleverly repositioning me in the space to make the images work. I came away from working with Claire with a number of images that are not only aligned with who I am as a conscious entrepreneur, but are also incredibly beautiful. Claire is one of those rare service-providers who you feel is 100% on your side and rooting for you in your entrepreneurial journey. She has a gift for capturing and revealing your authentic greatness, which in turn helps you appreciate yourself in a new light.

Since Claire has taken charge of my social media platforms, I have had an influx of comments, enquiries and attention. This has led to more traffic on my website, also designed by Claire, resulting in a boost to my yoga business. Claire is super easy to work with and her artistic intuition, allows you to feel that you are the one that is being creative as all of her ideas reflect your personal intentions. She is an amazing photographer, an added bonus when you are promoting yourself, and always has the right shot up her sleeve accompanied by the perfect text. I can't recommend Claire enough for any business, either starting out of wanting that a new spark to create more business. Ideally Claire would be my Brand Consultant for the rest of my career!!!

She takes the time to understand your needs as a client and works with you so you can achieve the desired result with your online presence, this includes helping you to manage social media, branding and marketing to your customers. She has helped me to refresh my website and promote my business online in a modern way all with patience and attention to detail.
