We would like to thank Garrett for sharing our day with us. He was a pleasure to have at our wedding; nothing was too much to ask (extra unplanned pictures – guessing you get that a lot) He made us feel comfortable and at ease.
I’m pleased to say that he made quite the impression on our guests whom all stated how professional & friendly he was. I forgot to tell Garrett about the last minute changes - but like a true professional he was zipping around no moment was lost! You were awesome & we would definitely recommend you in the future to family and friends. I really can’t wait to see the pictures.
😊
Garrett went over and above our expectations. He was friendly, relaxed and very professional. Garrett took time to chat to our guests which in turn made them more relaxed and at ease when taking their pictures. Most of our guests commented on how excellent Garrett was. Our final pictures are fantastic and there was a very quick turnaround from wedding to receiving the finished photos. It was stress free and very smooth working with Garrett. I would recommend using Garrett for your big day!
Garrett has captured our truly special day in a spectacular way, the photos are absolutely brilliant and he has captured the true character of our friends and family. An extremely professional service with outstanding results that we will treasure forever, the only problem we have is narrowing down our favorites because we love so many of them

Garrett Walsh is one of those rare people who provides a 100% top service in Portugal. As we prepared for our wedding it was a relief to know our 'photography' was in safe hands and he certainly did not fail to deliver. On the day he was helpful, understanding, organised and took sufficient control to make the whole process smooth and enjoyable. He takes great pride in his work and this is seen in the end result. We would have no hesitation recommending him and we have already!
We would like to thank you for the best pictures of our wedding we could wish for! You are a very dedicated and passionate photographer with a great sense of details and capturing the right moments. You helped us finding our dream wedding venue near a 'private' beach and advised in locations for our wedding couple shoot. And with great results, our wedding was like a fairy tale! We've had a lot of fun working together and you make your clients feel comfortable. We would recommend you to everyone who is looking for the best (wedding) photographer in Portugal!As published on Confetti.co.uk, see here »
Garrett is an exceptionally talented photographer. He pairs a masterful command of the technical aspects of photography with the eye of an artist. His sense of composition and use of light are sophisticated, warm, and nuanced with creative details. He is incredibly easy to work with and very unobtrusive. His cooperative nature allowed us to really feel comfortable with him and the pictures prove that, as Garrett was truly able to capture the essence of the day. We really appreciated that his assistant took pictures as well from different angles during the entire day. Garrett amazed us by choosing this breathtaking location and did not hesitate one second to go in the water or climb fences to take the most incredible pictures of our life. We were so surprised when we first saw the pictures, as we didn’t know what to expect. They are astonishing! There are no words to express how thankful we are. Thank you again.
We love our Wedding Photos! Garrett you are brilliant at your job, Thank you for your dedication and effort. Everyone said pictures looked liked from a magazine, they are amazing. We are very happy we chose you for our special day! Would highly recommend you.
Thank you!
We are both so delighted with the whole service that Garrett provided for our wedding in the Algarve. The beauty of his photos speak for themselves but more importantly from our first meeting with Garrett until the day we received our photos we knew that we were dealing with a true professional and that there was one aspect at least of our big day we did not need to worry about! Although discreet and unobtrusive throughout the day, Garrett managed not only to document the events of the day but also captured the characters of each of our guests. We have some wonderful memories we will cherish forever. Thankyou.
Thank you so much for capturing our wedding day so prefectly. We love our photos and so do all our family and friends. You are a fantastic photographer and very talented. You made us feel at ease throughout the day. We have the most amazing photos to cherish for the rest of our life thanks to you. Wish we could do it all again everyday! Thank you so very much
We choose Garrett as our wedding photographer and we are so happy we did. We have just received our photographs which are just amazing! Garrett captured all the emotional and important moments throughout our day but he also captured the fun relaxed parts off the day, which are very evident in the pictures. A job really well done, can't thank you enough Garrett. The photos are perfect, we loved how you keep it all so natural. Garrett is such a lovely person and easy to get along with, also he makes you feel so comfortable in front of the camera!!!
We can't thank you enough, it was lovely to meet you and have you as part of our day. It was just how we wanted it, relaxed and with natural photographs. Many times we even forgot Garret was photographing!!
The photobooth was also a highlight for our guests and nothing was a bother to Garrett he just kept snapping to the guests stopped posing.
Our photos are amazing and we will enjoy looking at forever! Thank you so much
Ronan and I would like to thank you Garrett for our wedding photos. We could not be more pleased with them. You have managed to capture every single moment without us even realising you were there most of the time. You had us completely at ease the whole day and even our guests commented on how much you interacted with them as well. You are a true professional and we cannot thank you enough. Regards Mr and Mrs Matthews :)
From the minute we saw Garrett's website we knew he was the photographer for us and we weren't wrong! We have just received our photo's and they are beyond amazing. Garrett captured every single moment of our wedding and more without us even realising it, that is how professional and fantastic he truly is. He has an amazing eye for the smallest detail in the perfect photo and is always willing to suggest as well as carry out any ideas and requests. We would 110% recommend Garrett to anyone and everyone. We truly can not thank you enough Garrett for capturing our magical day perfectly x
I don't often write testimonials/reviews but we were so happy that we chose Garrett to photograph our wedding; I can't recommend him highly enough to anyone getting married in the Algarve. His pictures are just beautiful, I think they speak for themselves. But also Garrett is the kind of photographer you want to have around on your wedding day - friendly, professional and he completely put us at ease. I was worried about feeling too posed but most of the day I completely forgot there was a camera there. Nothing was too much trouble, our wedding ran a little later than expected but Garrett was happy to stay longer than we had originally booked so we didn't miss out on our first dance being photographed. Thank you Garrett for giving us so many amazing pictures/memories of our day :)
When we saw Garrett’s portfolio on his website, we immediately saw that he manages to capture the individuality of each single wedding. Garrett was great at suggesting ideas in preparation for the Big Day. On the day, he made us feel very much at ease in front of the camera and blended in well with our guests. Garrett is a true professional. He managed to create something that will forever remind us not only of how we looked on the day, but of how we felt. And that is what wedding photographs are all about. I cannot recommend Garrett Walsh highly enough and we thank him for giving us memories that we will treasure forever.As published on WeddingsOnline, see here »
WOW!! Thank you so much for our amazing photos and capturing every single precious moment of our perfect day! Garrett is really personable and made us and all our guests feel at ease and half the time we didn't even realise u were snapping away! We can't stop looking through our pics and can't wait to get creative with them! The photo presentation to our song is incredible, we show it to everyone!! We loved our location shoot a couple of days after the wedding too, such a good idea and a great opportunity to get some amazing shots! Thank you so much we'd highly recommend you to all future couples tying the knot in the Algarve! x
