What people are saying
Johnny –
Johnny – Your pictures are fabulous…they have a truly magical feel
Hi Johnny – we depart Mauritius tomorrow and have thoroughly enjoyed viewing all your amazing photos while on honeymoon – they are absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much from both of us – you are very clever. You have perfectly captured our big day and very happy memories
Dear Johnny, You are a star. We embarked on a rather crazy few weeks but I am delighted to say we received the photos before departure to Nepal. They are just fantastic. Thank you so much. We are both really happy with them and it was a real treat to look through them. It was wonderful to see the parts of the day we missed ourselves, I particularly love the running entrance of my old house mates – an absolutely classic series of photos.
As well as being an abundantly talented photographer Johnny is a gentleman in the truest sense. He brings with him all of the professional qualities you would expect of a successful British Army Officer. I know and respect him both as a professional and as a family man; one of ethics and integrity. He is an entertaining man and a pleasure to be around. He instructs with humour and clarity. My own photography has been improved just from seeing Johnny at work and asking questions.
Whether it be in his portrait or landscape work, Johnny has a fabulous eye and is then able to back this up with a soft and subtle approach to his post-processing. The results are always stunning.Johnny is a man with the highest of standards and I’m happy to endorse his skills as a photographer, he is quite simply brilliant. In my current role as MD of Airpets, we are working togetther again to provide my customers with sensational portraits of their beloved pets.
Keep it up, is all I can add!

Johnny Fenn is a highly talented & personable photographer who uses his strong social skills, sense of fun and artistic ability to get the best out of his subject matter. Watching him work with people is a delight & he always manages to draw out the best from people.
His enthusiasm for photography is infectious and he delights in sharing his skills by teaching and motivating those who seek his advice. Motivated & organised, with a background in demanding and exacting working environments, Johnny will never let you down.
For anyone wanting to commission a professional photographer, I would strongly give my personal recommendation for Johnny Fenn.
Johnny Fenn is a dynamic and artful photographer. His knowledge of Nepal is excellent and he has captured much of the essence of this diverse, dramatic country and its exceptionally photogenic people in his work.
Johnny is a brilliant photographer who has a great eye for the subject matter and the imagination to take a brief and give you far more than you originally requested. I would hire him every time.
I have no hesitation in warmly recommending Johnny Fenn as a wonderfully creative, articulate, dedicated, helpful, reliable and extremely likeable person. His photography speaks for itself.
Johnny’s excellent results come together through a combination of great understanding and great talent. His ability to ‘read between the lines’ and deliver exactly what you want. I would not only thoroughly recommend Johnny for his commercial work, but for family shots or weddings, I believe he would be perfect.
As a designer myself I am full of admiration at the breathtaking beauty of his work and can’t recommend him highly enough.
Johnny has many talents, and photography is undoubtedly his strongest.
His technical ability is excellent, but it’s his charm, approachability and preparation that seems to make all the difference, whether that’s working with children, negotiating with large groups at weddings, capturing extraordinary moments in remote destinations or even negotiating with livestock…
Highly recommended.
