Client Testimonials:

  • We were so fortunate to have been recommended Ben Croft when we needed a breif film at short notice to showcase our charity. We couldn’t have asked for anyone more helpful, flexible, or talented! From the first call to the final cut, Ben was professional and efficient, working to a tight deadline while being sensitive and compassionate with our participants and volunteers. The final product perfectly reflected what MindSpace means to our community, and we only wish we’d had it years ago. Huge thanks to Ben and Optimise!

    K3nto - (SlingShot DAO)

  • Ben joined one of my storytelling sessions to capture the event, and I couldn’t have been happier with how he approached the day. He is always very relaxed and makes everyone feel at ease, and he was incredibly respectful of parents’ preferences around photography. Despite working efficiently and staying in the background, he managed to capture the atmosphere perfectly without ever feeling intrusive. The photos were exactly what I’d hoped for; vibrant, genuine, and full of life. His professionalism and attention to detail really shine through in his work.

    Rose - (Make Believe)

  • Ben has brilliantly captures our community events at Art Pop-Up. He is always professional and well-prepared, working brilliantly with a wide variety of people. His friendly and considerate approach helps everyone feel at ease, allowing him to capture natural, genuine moments. The photos beautifully reflect the creativity and community spirit of our events, and we’re so pleased with the quality of his work.
