    Best Photographer We Could've Asked For!!

    When I say Damian was the most amazing photographer for our special day, I am not over exaggerating. I knew from his website that our pictures would be good HOWEVER, upon receiving our sneak peak pictures, we immediately realized that our pictures were PERFECT.

    Damian understood us so effortlessly and easily. He helped us capture the moments that will now last a lifetime. Thank you Damian for everything you did for us. I would hire 10000% recommend you hire Damian, you will be completely blessed by the quality of his art.

    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 Photography

    Damian was our photographer for our wedding at Rudding Park, October 2024.
    Damian was thorough, discreet, professional, kind, a fantastic photographer. We met with Damian over videocalls before the wedding and he was open and clear about his packages. Damian put us all at ease on the wedding day and took the perfect mixture of posed and candid pictures. We got a selection of photos a couple of days later, with the full album online to view within a couple of weeks. The photos are professional, high quality and absolutely perfect. We cannot recommend Damian enough.

    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!

    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

    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.

Thank you so much for giving us so many wonderful photos to cherish of our day

    Damian was fantastic on our wedding day, he was engaging with guests and with ourselves. He did not make things awkward even for those that don't like their photos being taken, he was dressed smartly and blended in the crowd for more candid shots. Could not recommend Damian enough.

    DS WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY's reply:

    That's great to hear you like them! To be honest, I really love some of them too! It was a pleasure to work with you two!

    Thank you for the nice review, I really appreciate it!
