Malcolm the Photographer

Malcolm was absolutely excellent in all areas. Before the shoot he was extremely thorough. And on the day itself he made me feel at ease. I would not hesitate to recommend Malcolm's services!

I was looking for a photographer to take some professional headshots and I came across Malcolm the Photographer. He was absolutely fantastic, he reached out to me really quickly, was proactive in finding out what it was I was after and how best to accommodate my needs. He has provided me with some fantastic photos and I would 100% recommend his services to anyone who is looking to go to the next level with their photos. Just Brilliant!!

My wife and I needed professional photographs for business purposes. Malcolm was recommended through a business networking group I used to belong to, Malcom is excellent in getting to know his clients requirements; this enabled him to suggest style, dress code etc. Everything was professionally prepared and booked and Malcolm turned up with his equipment and set up effectively a studio in our property. He talks through his approach, suggests poses from more formal to more fun involving movement and flow. We had the opportunity to look through all the photographs taken online and choose the final ones for formatting. Overall very pleased, we certainly achieved what we wanted and enjoyed the experience. Malcolm Is strongly recommended; he's very good.

My last “official” photos were taken over 20 years ago and I was worried about how I was going to look. I wanted to feel good about myself as an older person and more connected to myself as a professional. My time with Malcolm really did make a difference – I have found a new acceptance and celebration of the person that I am now.Malcolm was very engaging, offering a lot of creative and original input. He put me at ease and as a result, the shots captured a range of looks and moods that catered for the different aspects of my business. Malcolm offers a very personable, considered and creative service: he has a professional demeanor, balanced with a perceptive talent and a great personal touch. He will be able to get the most out of any client, regardless of their level of experience in front of the camera.I will certainly be using his trusted services again.

Malcolm Hackett recently took some business photos for me and I am very grateful to him for doing such an amazing job. He puts such a lot of care and attention into each photo and takes the time to ask all the right questions to make sure he completely understands the message that is intended to be captured by each photo. The quality of each photo is of a very high standard, he is very patient, and likes a challenge.

An expert in his field.Malcolm’s knowledge and patience was critical in achieving a first class result.I was aware for some time that a superior image on my professional media was due, but I had procrastinated on it for too long as it felt like an indulgence.After an initial conversation with Malcolm where he explained the process and I described what I was hoping to achieve, it was apparent firstly, that I wanted to work with him and secondly that the time had come for action.I’m always looking to expand my network and build relationships with my international colleagues. I know the images from Malcolm will help me do just that.

I loved working with Malcolm! Having had several disappointments with business headshots over the years I was a little worried that even though he had taken time to get to know me and find out what would/wouldn't work for me, and was really accommodating (and fun) on the day of the shoot, the ultimate results might still not be quite right. But I am really, really pleased with them - it was so hard to whittle down to the 3 we'd agreed on. He was very flexible and helpful with suggestions for different formats and edits. 10/10 would recommend.

I was worried about how best to portray my business image and brand through my headshots, however, when met Malcolm over coffee to discuss my requirements, my fears were allayed. I liked the fact that he was genuinely interested in my business, my intentions regarding how and where I would use the headshots, and took note of how I would like to come across in my photos.He used his great humour to help me to relax during the photoshoot, and to pose more naturally, and turned around the completed images very quickly.I would not hesitate to recommend Malcolm to my friends and business colleagues for his professional, yet warm and friendly service!

Incredibly professional and incredibly easy to work with. He worked very hard in order to make me feel comfortable. Very happy with how the pictures turned out, can't recommend Malcolm enough!

I wanted a head and shoulder photo for a business card. I had been looking online and then Malcolm contacted me. He was very helpful with lots of ideas, I decided to make the most of the opportunity and have some extra photos taken for future use. I am not artistic in the slightest so I was grateful for the ideas that Malcolm came up with and talked through with me until I felt happy. He was very patient and put me at ease. I would recommend him to any of my friends especially those who require help with ideas for photos.
