Hey there,
I’m Damian, the guy behind DS Wedding Photography, hanging out in the heart of Yorkshire.

From candid and colorful shots to lovely posed portraits - I'm here to make your memories last a lifetime. If you're after someone who's your friend as much as your photographer, and brings a relaxed, fun vibe to your day, then you're in the right place!
What gets me going is catching those real smiles and genuine moments in front of my camera. My aim? To freeze the laughter and happy tears, creating memories that stick with you forever. More than just a photographer, I’m here to be your trustworthy friend, someone who brings the chill vibes, an extra guest at your wedding – not just the camera dude.

I approach each wedding like it’s my own, making sure not a single moment slips by. Every package includes a pre-chat, so we can chat about your day and tailor things just for you.

The best photographer you could want on your wedding!
Damian was absolutely amazing on our wedding day. He literally didn’t stop for the full day running around trying to capture every moment he could. He was so helpful and friendly by the end of the day I forgot he was even our photographer and thought he was one of my guests I’d known for years! Nothing was too much trouble for him and you can clearly tell he is passionate about his work and wanted to make the best memories for us.
Everyone commented on how great Damian was and if you are reading this review because you’re looking for a wedding photographer. Look no further and book him.
Thanks again Damian I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos. It’s going to be a long few weeks but I know they’ll be worth the wait!

I will love these photos for the rest of my life and these are ONLY THE FIRST FEW... I am beyond excited to see the rest.
Thank you SOOOOO much Damian!!!

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.

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!

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

Outstanding service!
Damian was an absolute vital part of our wedding day, he listened to what we wanted however really enhanced our ideas to make them better than we could ever imagine. Damian fit into our wedding day like a puzzle piece, we had so many comments about how amazing he was and how he didn’t just focus on the couple, he focused on all of our guests and therefore captured some absolutely beautiful candid photos of our loved ones.
We would recommend Damian a thousand times over to anybody, so friendly and professional!

Exceeded Expectations wouldn't hesitate to recommend
I booked Damien after our original photographer let us down and I'm so glad we went with him. He provided the relaxed nature I was looking for in my wedding photographs and I'm so happy with our images.
He was very professional leading up to our day with several meetings to discuss our needs and ideas and made it easier on the day. He was punctual, easy going and made everyone relaxed in front of the camera.
Thank you so much for being a part of our day and for giving us so many special memories
