    Perfect Memories in Photos Forever

    We knew straight away from the portfolio of previous work that Damian could take the kind of photographs we wanted, and after the initial meeting we were certain that we had found somebody professional, genuine, kind and fun who would really listen to our priorities. The wedding day itself was really busy for us as bride and groom, but DS Photography's photos captured hundreds of beautiful and special moments which enable us to now relive the day slowly and enjoyably. On top of his great photos, he's also a really nice guy! We recommend.

    Amazing from start to finish!

    We hired Damian to capture our beautiful memories on our wedding day last month.
    He absolutely smashed it out the park! The photos came out incredible, more than we could have imagined.
    Damian was very friendly with all my family and guests, and also very professional.
    Everyone can get nervous infront of a camera, but Damian made me and my husband feel so at ease and made the experience comfortable for both of us.
    Before the wedding I gave Damian a list of shots I would like to be taken, he didn’t miss one thing off the list, in fact there was even more than I asked for. From small details, to group shots he didn’t miss a thing.
    He made our day run so smoothly, always knew what to say and do at the right times. He went above and beyond for us.
    I received a few preview pictures the day after the wedding and got sent the full album 2.5 weeks after the wedding which was incredible.

    Damian, we can’t thank you enough for all that you have done for us, we have photos that are timeless and will last us a lifetime.

    All the best
    Mr & Mrs Powell

    100% would recommend!

    My new husband and I were both scrolling through Hitched separately when we came across Damian at DS Photography. We both said we loved his style of photography and his pictures were stunning!
    Thankfully Damian was available for our wedding as we booked quite far in advance and all communication with him was effortless. He was always there to answer questions.
    Our pre-wedding zoom call was a great chance to get to know him a little and see what energy he’d bring to our day and he told us he’d be bringing a second shooter so all prep could be captured.
    On the day of our wedding, Damian and the second shooter arrived at the agreed time and also had a little gift for me and my husband-to-be which I think was a lovely little touch!
    I had made a small ‘shot list’ of pictures that I really wanted taken on the day and I got every single one of them plus hundreds more that I’m absolutely obsessed with!
    Damian went out of his way to capture the best moments of our day and I am forever grateful.
    I cannot speak more highly of Damian and would always recommend him to anyone.
    We received sneak peak pictures within 48hrs and our whole wedding album back within 3 weeks! (We were previously advised we’d have our pictures in 4-10 weeks)
    Thank you again Damian for all your hard work and for capturing our magical day.

    10/10 would 100% recommend!

    Wonderful wonderful man and photographer!

    Damian was an absolute dream from start to end. Communication was really clear in the early consultation talks and everyone at the wedding said how friendly and personable he was. It allowed everyone to just relax and have a good time, with some really wonderful candid moments captured.

    Thank you!

    Incredible

    Damian is great! Awesome photography! He went above and beyond for our wedding day to capture everything we wanted. He was very professional and kept us both at ease. We are beyond happy with the photos we received, and are so grateful for everything he did for us on the day. I would highly recommend him to anyone getting married and wanting it captured!

    Flawless, felt like working with a friend

    Damian, where do we start. You were fantastic, before the day we had several zoom calls to get to know each other and learn about what was most important to us, to learn every detail of the day & to put us at ease for any stresses that we had regarding the photography on the day.

    Then on the big day, it was like meeting an old friend! You captured everything and more, yet we felt we hardly saw you! The way you worked in the shadows yet finding the perfect angles and shots was nothing short of mystical! Always smiling, always laid back yet always there to capture the most genuine smiles and reactions!

    Just to add on, we received endless comments on the day and afterwards from all our guests, young and old, about how incredible you were. You were especially a hit with the ladies, something along the lines of ‘very easy on the eye and a pleasure to look and smile at!’

    The final photos are exceptional, incredibly professional. We couldn’t be any more pleased that chose you for our special day. Thank you again for your hard-work on the day, the wedding shots, the several photoshoots with smoke bombs, champagne showers & the sunset scene up by the castle on the hill.

    Lots of love always,

    Abi, George & Wesley BOWEN

    DS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY's reply:

    That’s wonderful to hear, George! Thank you so much for your kind words. It was indeed an incredible day—the hottest in the UK this year! Working with you was an absolute pleasure, and I felt so welcomed by you and your family. That’s what made it so easy to capture your big day with such ease.
