Vantage Point Photos

Being one of the UK’s largest residential managing agents it was crucial that our website and sales literature clearly highlighted the high standard in which we manage our developments. Vantage Point Photos not only provided first class pictures but also some excellent advice in how to best highlight our work. The ability to access areas and take pictures from heights other photographers could not offer, clearly helped highlight our work.

We have used Vantage Point Photos to shoot many of our new external playground installations and the results have been fantastic. You can see the entire playground and its equipment from an aerial shot which would be impossible to view from the ground. Vantage Point also provides us with some inspiring ground level close up images.

We regularly use the photo’s Gary has taken in marketing materials such as brochures, adverts and of course on the website.

The use of aerial images is self justifying. After having one particular property on the market for over a year within three months of using Gary’s images interest increased significantly and the property has sold much to the delight of the client. The vendor and ourselves put the quick sale thereafter of the property down to the uniqueness of Gary’s images and the high visual impact they convey.

As a major swimming pool company, we were in charge of building the two temporary Skypools in the MEN Arena for the FINA World Swimming Championships. We had the difficult task of trying to find a reputable photographer in the Manchester area to take professional photos of both the construction of the two pools and of the event itself; in the space of less than two months.

We found Vantage Point Photos to be very professional and were very pleased with the quotation they gave us. Gary Beal was able to meet with us at any time to discuss the project. He is a dedicated photographer working outside of his quoted working hours to get the best possible photos for us.

The images we were left with were of superior quality, and were perfect for what we were looking for.

We were very impressed with the work that Vantage Point Photos carried out for us, and we extend our gratitude and appreciation to Gary!

“I have used Gary for taking my photographs for two events in the past few years.  Each time he has understood exactly what I was looking for, either a lovely photo of my sister, my cousins and me for our grandparents or a fun photo of with my friends to celebrate one of their birthdays.  Gary has produced some beautiful finished photos and they are not expensive either!

I now only consider him when I am looking to have some professional photos taken.  He is both highly professional and also makes the whole experience incredibly enjoyable – we always laugh a lot and end up with some really natural photos.

I have recommended him to many friends and have no doubt I will use him again soon!”

“Gary is probably the most personalable photographer you will come accross. He is fantastic to have at any function, quietly taking a wonderful visual record of the event without ever imposing on it. Likewise his mast photography is just the best service when you require elevated shots that are not usually accessible or available.
Have recommended Gary’s services many times, and will continue to do so.”

“Gary is an excellent photographer. Not only can he take a good picture, he has standards that even surpass mine! He would wait a whole day to get the right shot with the right light and right conditions. This means I get a great base for my visualisation. He takes a brief very well and won’t be afraid to tell you if the shot isn’t composed very well. That is the sign of a professional.”

Dear Gary

Many thanks for coming round last week to preview the photo book for Jonathan’s 21st.

We are very pleased with the photographs, especially the one of Aoife. The guests all commented on your very friendly approach which put them at ease, which is what you need when you can take a picture of them at any time.

This is our third book now and I know Paul & Veronica have used your services after seeing our first book. Aoife wants you to photograph her next birthday!

Once again, many thanks.

“In my role as a designer it is vital that my work is captured in the best possible way.
I have always received work of the very highest quality from Gary that not only clearly represents what I am hoping to acheive but enhances my work in the most positive way possible.
I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Gary, his studio and his work to anyone who is looking for a quality, talented and reliable photographer.”
