Julian is my go to for business photography. He captures me in a natural and professional light that I feel confident in an industry (Aesthetics) where appearance is foremost. His skill set is unprecedented and I would always recommend him to anyone for business and personal photography.

I'd like to thank my friend and colleague Julian McDonald ABIPP for my new professional profile picture in readiness of some major planned website updates. He's done a great job making a silk purse out of pigs ear, as they say, and he's the best photographer I know, apart from me ! LOL ! But just goes to show that it pays to use a qualified professional photographer.

Julian was recommended to me for a shoot capturing a laboratory and on-site environment. From my initial enquiry, Julian was professional, accommodating and easy to work with. He took the time to understand exactly what was needed and delivered a wide range of creative shots within the restrictions of a technical environment. I would highly recommend Julian's photography and hope to work with him again in the future.

Super, super impressed with my professional work pics. I didn’t expect anything half this amazing. Julian’s work is so professional and he made me feel at ease instantly. You can tell he’s a perfectionist, with an eye for detail! Huge thank you to you again Julian, I actually look like a professional in my pic, still not sure how you did that! I’ve wanted to enhance my business with quality pictures for ages and I’m so glad I used Vivid Sync. I feel so grateful.

Julian from Vivid Sync recently did me a professional work photo. Didn’t really know what to expect but he is so friendly and easy going and made the whole session fun. He is also a total perfectionist and I was blown away by the results. If you need a photographer, then you need Julian, I can’t hesitate to recommend him highly enough. Thank you Julian

We have just used Julian’s services for the first time as part of a new product launch. We cannot have been more impressed with the outcome. As others have mentioned, Julian is a real professional and also great fun to work with. He anticipated our needs exactly and produced the images we wanted the day after the shoot. We will not hesitate to use his services for our next project and will recommend his services to others.

Julian has done work for me on a regular basis for some 10 years and all his photographs have been to the highest standard. He also had an amazing rapport with my clients and nothing was too much trouble. He comes highly reccomended whatever your needs.

We have been working with Julian on all our group company photography for four years now and he always delivers! We are a group of equipment manufacturers from small hand held devices to larger industrial MPI benches and Julian has photographed our products both in his studio and on site. In his studio he has the ability to make our smaller products look fresh, modern and stylish. Julian is very professional and clearly has years of experience as he just "knows" what you need and want from a shoot. This allows me to get on with other things and know that the images will come back looking fantastic. Julian makes photography totally stress free! On location shoots Julian is an absolute pleasure to work with. Often we shoot in factories, aircraft maintenance locations and busy industrial departments. As well as being busy, working facilities, they are usually allowing us to shoot there as a favour. Julian's ability to work efficiently and to maximise our time on site is wonderful. He understands the nature of industry and therefore is very good at coordinating with myself from a clients point of view as well as making sure the location staff are happy. It is this professional manner that sets him apart from the competition. On a final note, Julian is also very chatty, bubbly and enthusiastic about all things photography (and life in general). I swear you could take Julian a plain box and he would 1. get excited about shooting it and 2. find a way to make it look like THE best plain box in the world!
Kate G
Julian is the consummate professional and a genuinely nice person - a great combination! He knows what he is talking about and delivers what you need in a timely manner. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Julian for any type of photographic work, be it business or for personal purposes.
Monica M
One of Julian's many skills is being able to take my clients potentially boring products and make them look beautiful and just the right amount of 'edgy' without the need for art direction. It's always a huge pleasure to work with with him.
Cliff E
I have worked with Julian for 3 years in which time he has produced some wonderful photography that has not only been of the highest quality but has truly represented the homes and gardens that he has photographed. He is meticulous in his work and has an exceptional eye for detail. He is extremely personable and his work and professionalism is first class.
Martin G
Julian is a superb professional who is a perfectionist. The excellent results he produces, evidence the meticulous attention to detail that he brings to every aspect of his work.
Sandra K
I've worked with many professional industrial photographers and Julian both in the studio and out on site is the best I've ever dealt with.
John H
We have worked with Julian for many years. The quality of his photography and his professionalism is superb. He takes a lot of time and trouble over every job no matter how small and is a real perfectionist. We would have no hesitation in recommending Julian.
Sally N
Photoshoots are high pressure environments where time is money and planning is everything. Having worked with many photographers over the years I keep coming back to Julian simply because he has never let me down. He is proactive in the planning of the shoot, accurate in his budgeting and excellent in his craft. His attention to detail and creative thinking has delivered results that have impressed my clients and made me look as if I know what I am doing. I'm convinced some of the accolades we have won are largely down to the imagery Julian has created. But I think one of the main reasons I will keep working with Julian is he makes the whole process fun - even when the pressure is on. If you want excellent results, within budget and without the headaches, Julian's your man.

Julian was a pleasure to work with producing excellent portrait photographs for marketing and advertising purposes of a high standard. Julian's photographic studio and facilities are professional and relaxing. His approach and style is friendly and professional with a keen understanding of the context and requirement of the finished product. I would highly recommend his services.
Graham H
Great at all types of photography & image manipulation, especially people, product and location work. Julian can be creative, clinical and understands what the customer needs, he also makes the work enjoyable. I have no hesitation in recommending him and have and will continue to always use him for my personal and business imagery.

Julian is very creative and produces great work from concept to final output. He also has a great rapport with both colleagues and clients. I have known Julian for many years, he comes highly recommended.
Perry S
I have worked with Julian for many years now and he continues to provide an outstanding and professional service. I would recommend Vivid Sync to anyone who is looking for a first class photographic service, expertise with creative lighting and photoshop skills. I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone I know as he has proven time and time again how committed he is to quality and service.
William S
I have worked with Julian on numerous editorial photo shoots over the past few years and find him to be one of the premiere photographers in his field. Not only is he dedicated to delivering a first class result on every project, but he possesses a keen sense of light as well as a rare talent for finding just the right image to convey - all of which is captured in his work. Often working within ridiculous timescales in order to hit press deadlines, Julian remains cool, calm and professional and his efficiency and speed cannot be matched. He is a true professional in every sense of the word and an absolute pleasure to work with.
Caroline W
I can highly recommend Julian as quite simply the best photographer I have ever worked with. The standard of Julian's work is second to none and he creates fantastic results whatever the assignment. On top of this (and perhaps most importantly in the commercial environment) is the level of service that Julian provides. Julian is extremely hard working and has a warm, natural manner which instantly puts both subjects and clients at ease. Julian's speed of work means that he always works out as being cost-effective and enables us to stay on budget. All of this combined means that I have worked with Julian for around 14 years and he is always our first port of call when we need great photography.
Rob R
As an avid supporter of original photography, it is rare to find a photographic studio whose talents cover such a diverse range of subjects. Whether it's PR, Product Catalogues, or location work, Vivid sync have proved themselves again and again to be our only choice for our clients' projects. I hope we continue the strong working relationship we have built over the last 21 years...
Michael H
We have worked with Vivid Sync for several years now, and we consider them to be one of our very best suppliers. They offer work of the highest possible quality at a competitive price delivered in a flexible and accommodating manner. They shine brightly above their competitors !
Mark O
As a Registered Provider of Social Housing it is very important for us to capture just the right image of either the communities with whom we work or the properties which we are developing across our operational area, and Julian for us absolutely nails this. Julian is able to go beyond expectation in terms of our specific and individual requests as well as delivering exactly what we are looking for. He has been able to interpret our requirements and creatively turn them into the outcomes we wanted. Julian is highly professional, discreet on shoot, respectful to both our customers and the environment in which we operate and has genuinely developed mutual respect with our customers and officers. Vivid Sync deliver what we want, when we want it and exactly how we want it in the most professional way.
Steve H
Julian has always been a great help to us with our photography, he has the ability to take the most unexciting of products jump off of the page at you and we would not use anyone else.
Justin M
I have known Julian of Vivid Sync for many years. In recent years as Vivid Sync and earlier in his previous employment Julian has looked after all of our Photographic work from concept ideas through studio and location work including brochure design, advertising and website layout. His work is outstanding, his effort and commitment especially with tight deadlines in mind is unmatched. The success of my Company in part is dependant upon how we are seen by potential customers through media coverage, Vivid Sync hit the button every time.
Roger C
We have engaged Vivid Sync on a number of high profile projects for many of our major clients. Julian's approach fits very well with our own creative style. He is flexible, has a great eye for detail and the sort of can-do attitude we look for in the people we choose to work with. Technically, he is up there with the best, and - despite the sometimes demanding nature of our work - his pro-activeness, creativity and positive outlook have made him a firm favourite among our list of regular photographers. I have no hesitation recommending him and his team.
Heather B
Vivid Sync have dealt with my personal and business photography, design and print for nearly 9 years now. They always make everything so easy for me! When embarked on my new venture, HD Brows, I automatically called Julian to shoot all of my images. He has so much patience and works well with everyone involved. He has captured the exact look and mood I'd wanted from the pictures and I have no doubt he will do so over the next few years as we expand our product range. Our HD Brow clients include many professionals and celebrities from the fashion and media industry and many have asked for Julian's number, although I am reluctant to hand it out in case he gets too busy for us!
