On Hitched.co.uk since 2021

Last update: April 2024

Joe Daniel Photography is a wedding photography business based in Leeds, Harrogate, York, Scarborough & North Yorkshire, West Yorkshire, Manchester and Cheshire, London and beyond. Hi, I'm Joe, a fun-loving, down-to-earth, pretty chilled, and grounded high-end portrait and documentary-style Leeds wedding photographer.

I'm a lover of a good single malt and when the sun shines, a nice pint of beer (of course not while I'm shooting a wedding 🤭!)

Brides have told me I have a calming effect on the day whilst being in my presence as I've covered so many weddings in my time as a wedding photographer and know exactly what to expect and don't get phased when things don’t go to plan...as they almost always tend to do! My unobtrusive, reportage approach is all about capturing fun, natural-looking images that take you back to how your day actually ‘felt’. Wherever you’re having a great time, you can be sure that I'll be sneakily there too, ready to pounce discreetly and capture the fun moments you’ll treasure forever.

Services Offered

I cover weddings throughout the United Kingdom and abroad. I cover no more than one event per day, can work alone or with a second photographer. I charge per event, and your wedding package includes a password-protected online gallery and luxury wedding album or print package. My average turnaround time is approx 3 -4 weeks depending on season. I can adapt a plan to suit a wide range of album options and budgets if needed. Email me for my brochure.

He made our day even more special 😊

Joe was the absolute best person we could have chosen to photograph our wedding and we really recommend him if you're thinking of employing him. From the very beginning he was so enthusiastic, professional and supportive - he met with us to discuss our ideas and needs, did an engagement shoot for us and viewed the venue and offered his ideas for the best location shots. We think that his work speaks for itself - we loved the vibrancy of his photos and the way ours turned out were amazing. He had some brilliant tricks for getting stunning and romantic night time shots and our wedding album was absolutely wonderful and told the BEST story of our amazing day. But he is also such a lovely person to be around and an absolute joy to deal with. He managed to be very discreet through the day and we often didn’t notice he was there! Many of our guests commented on what a good guy he was. So, thank you so much Joe for our excellent wedding photographs and album, and for being part of our day!

Amazing service, beautiful photos and a lovely man.

We loved having Joe to help capture our special day. We didn’t ask for groups of photos and he very much listened to this, taking some lovely ones through the day. He very much captured the essence of our wedding day. Memories that will hang on our wall for years to come.

5 star professional friendly service from start to finish

Where to start with the amazing Service provided by Jonathan! Firstly he made myself and all of the bridal party feel completely at ease, he was professional, discrete and captured the most beautifully natural shots. Jonathan was also fantastic at staging and positioning us all to get stunning posed shots. Jonathan was brilliant throughout the entire day… He was more than happy to go with any ideas we had whilst also offering to go above and beyond to on get the perfect shots!Our wedding photos are everything we dreamed of and more and we are so glad we didn’t go with anybody other than Jonathan. If you are looking for a photographer that provides high quality photos to capture the story of your day we highly recommend. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts

Lovely pictures skilfully done by. Lovely guy

“Thank you Jonathan for capturing our day so perfectly. Professional, skilled, subtle, friendly and fun. So many people commented what a nice guy you were and a pleasure to have around, whilst blending in too. When we tried put together our fav shots we realised how many of the pictures captured the day for us to relive it again and again. Priceless! Thank you so much! Katy and Dave Baldwin.

Brilliant photographs, great guy!

I just HATE having my picture taken, but Joe was just brilliant at making everybody feel at ease and we were so pleased with the end results. After our wedding we asked him back to do some family photos after our baby boy was born and these were even better!

Fantastic photographer and photos!

Joe has been the most wonderful photographer that we could have asked for. On the day, I had very little idea of what I wanted, but Joe ensured he took a range of photos and guided my choices. All of the photos we have capture the laughter, fun and beauty of the day. He helped us to create amazing memories.

Before the wedding, Joe was incredibly efficient and ensured excellent communication. Each time I emailed, I had a super quick response. Beyond this, Joe was so friendly and helped to ease my nerves.

A brilliant photographer and an even better person! Joe had fun with us and became a party of the party. I can’t thank him (or recommend him) enough!

Great communication from start to finish & fantastic photos

Joe was one of many photographers that we met when planning our wedding. His portfolio of photographs showed that he could really capture the important moments, without too much harsh editing. On the day Joe was spot on, trying to coordinate photos on a chaotic day is no small task but he managed it with ease. We got all of the photos we wanted & we couldn’t be happier with the final result. We would (and have) highly recommend Joe to anyone looking for a talented photographer for their special day.

I absolutely love my bridal album and it’s all done to Mr Miles Loadsa Smiles.
The day was a fairytale and it’s so beautifully captured.
Highly recommended to all fussy brides that deserve only the best.

Just perfect

Joe is so professional, really put us at ease and made it fun. I literally cried when I saw the images, I’m usually so critical of pictures of me, but I just loved every one of them. I can’t thank Joe enough. A close friend has already booked with him after seeing mine. Thanks so much x

Discreet and natural

Jonathan captured our day on 14th May 2016 and what a sterling job he did! Having been a part of many weddings in the last couple of years, what strikes us most about Jonathan is his discreetness, but also his ability to capture some of those extra special moments and looks. He is so relaxed, it's just the kind of person you need around to help keep things calm. We absolutely love looking through our collection, and relive a bit more of our day each time. We've had tears a plenty both from ourselves and friends/family whilst showing our pics, as they bring back so much emotion. We had considered using a videographer, but having the snaps Jonathan got we realise how unnecessary that would've been. We genuinely think our pictures have so much more depth to them then any wedding videos we've seen. The only problem we've had was selecting the pictures for the album, as there are so many we just love! We got there in the end and can't wait to see the finished product. Thank you Jonathan, for being calm and discreet, but most of all thank you for capturing the best day of our lives that we can keep enjoying for decades to come.

Perfect wedding photographer

When we got married we felt like Joe couldn't do enough for us. He made sure before the big day that he knew the "feel" we wanted, then effortlessly worked to achieve that.

Unlike some wedding photographers that I've witnessed over the years he was unobtrusive but still managed to get the picture and caught some great unstaged moments that I will cherish forever.

We got the pictures through when we were on honeymoon and couldn't have been happier. We can't recommend Joe highly enough.
