Bristol Wedding Photographer & Wiltshire Wedding Photographer

How I capture your wedding day

My approach to wedding photography is to be relaxed and professional. I don't take over and get in the way, I hover in the background capturing all those beautiful natural moments that makes you, your guests and your wedding so unique. I love working with people and being a great wedding photographer is as much about people skills as it is about camera skills.

I always meet with the couple before their big day because it's so important that you get to meet me and feel comfortable around me.

We go through all the day's details, such as locations, timings and the really important must-have shots that you want from your day. We can meet and chat as many times as you want to.

I don't put any restrictions on the wedding day. I arrive when you want me to arrive and I leave when everyone is dancing their socks off.

I also don't limit how many images you will receive - if an image works, then it's yours. Usually, it's at least 500+ images.

About me

Hi, I'm Dan.

I am based in Bristol, a beautiful and creative city surrounded by inspiring people. I work out of a little office on King Street near the old harbour, where some days I can hear jazz drifting over from the Old Duke. This is where I'm lucky enough to edit my work.

Over the last 10 years, I've been fortunate enough to photograph weddings in some incredible locations such as Ibiza, Miami, Tuscany, the Yorkshire Dales and a Devonshire castle.

When I'm not working, I'm usually found hanging out with my family and photographing dramatic seascapes. I come from a family of painters and artists, so being creative is in my blood.

As a wedding photographer, I document the day using natural light. Creating a soft and glowing style of photography. I strive to be unobtrusive, calm and never get in the way. I like to be in the background capturing natural moments. It's my job to make a couple - and their guests - feel relaxed and at ease with the camera.

Thank you for visiting my website.
