 Testimonials:

"David from start to finish was a pleasure to work with and brought his own creative perspective to everything produced. From pre-production help and organising kit to building on our own creative briefs. The end result and images produced went beyond expectations and are now a proud part of our content collection. Not only from a professional standpoint but off camera, Dave was great fun to be around and became an invaluable part of our crew. I hope our paths cross again...Legend" - Ben Garwood, Content Marketing - Contiki

“I commissioned David McConaghy for a picnic campaign titled 'Set Summer Free'. As part of the project, Fortnum's commissioned nine photographers to showcase Staycation locations around the UK. In doing so, each photographer was given creative free rein to art direct their own shoot, which is a step-change for our business and how we work.

David's photography and moving images exceeded our brief. He was a pleasure to work with, going above and beyond to ensure the shoot was a great success - from the initial mood board to the location, choice of models and styling, his images tapped into our desire to reach a new audience whilst ensuring authenticity. I highly recommend David and we look forward to working with him on other projects in the near future.” - Ange Loftus, Marketing Manager, Fortnum & Masons

We really loved the content David and his team created, both the images and the videos were great. We feel like he really captured the essence of the MINI Countryman and it’s adventurous spirit!” - Emily Norris, Marketing Executive, MINI UK

“We asked Dave to help us promote Ireland’s Wild Atlantic Way walking routes to GB holidaymakers on Instagram. Dave provided us with clear tiered pricing content packages that we could choose from for our new coastal walking campaign, and we found it very good value for the return on investment. I would highly recommend working with Dave and his team for social media campaigns, he over delivered on the content and we couldn’t have been more pleased to work with such a talented photographer and influencer.” - Des Burke, GB Marketing Manager, Tourism Ireland

“We’ve worked with together on several shoots for Talisker Whisky. David understands the brand and always delivers against the brief, going above and beyond to get the perfect shot every time.” - Harry Bunnell, Strategist, Diageo

“It was a pleasure working with David, we were already impressed with his portfolio to date and after sending over our brief David provided a really comprehensive and on-brand proposal, he really understood what we were trying to achieve. The whole process from start to finish was clear and straightforward, David supplied an excellent mix of images for us to choose from (it was extremely hard to narrow down!) and we are already looking forward to working with David again in the near future.” - Julia Mackillop, Brand Manager, Cù Bòcan Single Malt

“We’ve worked with Dave for a couple of years now and he’s always done a fantastic job. He’s a pleasure to work with, with quick communication, prompt turnaround of edits and great photography. He adds his own creativity to shots to bring briefs to life and I’d highly recommend him.” - Bonnie Hatcher, Managing Director - Zag Drinks

“Working with David on the Shackleton Adventure Weekend was fantastic! The process was easy, and he offered excellent consultation for making the content work for our target audience. This meant that the final shots and social media posts were on brief for the brand, whilst also being engaging and authentic for our consumers.” - Eleanor Scott, Account Manager, Margaret PR (on behalf of Shackleton Whisky)

“We loved the photos and think David really got the brand. We liked the range of close ups of products (great for blogs!) and further away / more casual shots (great for social!). Really like the framing and capturing something different. It's often hard to get a different angle of outdoor walking without looking 'samey' but we think David created some unique shots with the location.” - Jennifer Carew, PR & Marketing, Craghoppers
