TESTIMONIALS
"Gareth makes a difference compared to other photographers specialised in sailing. It's easy to always end up with same shots, it's difficult to find something more. There is passion and heart in what he does, they are not only photos of sailing boats. There is more humanity, more style, more art. I've found working with Gareth easy and creative. There is a good cooperation, sharing of ideas, professionalism and trust. For me these are all very important values to creating a good working relationship."

Paola Stropeni. Head of marketing and communications - Mascalzone Latino America's Cup team

 

“ The results generated from our working relationship with Subzero Images have truly exceeded our expectations. We believe that the services provided by Subzero Images have been pivotal to the WMRT and two of our major events - Korea Match Cup and Monsoon Cup Malaysia, in positioning the WMRT as the leader in its field.  As a result, we’ve made significant strides in building our images and PR worldwide. Subzero Images has a passion for our business that has helped to make our working relationship a very easy one."

Audrey Lakai. Communications Director - World Match Racing Tour

 

"Thank you for the photos you have done on Virbac Paprec 3. The photos you have done of the boat under construction were very nice. Because of the high quality of the photography you have provided we were able to make photo book of the construction of Virbac Paprec 3. Thanks to the quality of the photos we have been able to print and sell 3,500 books which is a very good figure for such a book. We have also provided photos to the press and they like them very much also. We would be pleased to work with Subzero Images again in the future."
