Dan Waters Creative Photography

Your new friend with a camera!

This is the secret to why my photos are so full of life. I’ll make Granny grin, banter with the boozy, chuckle with the children and dance like a demon. Guests often ask if I’m a friend of the couple.

Hi, I’m Dan. I’m 5ft 6” with a head like a boiled egg… …I’m Harry Hill’s ‘Mini-me!’

But there’s method in my madness and I’ll represent you with enthusiasm and professionalism. Nothing is too much trouble.

Here’s how I can help…

  • I’ll find out what’s important to you about your wedding and your photos

  • I’ll create a mood-board with you so we know we’re on the same page

  • My portable microphone helps organise the day

I’ll be your right-hand man…. …your dance partner. …your baby-sitter…. …your shoulder to cry on…. …your MC… …and your calming influence rolled into one petite, perky package! 

Wedding and family photographer serving Peterborough, Cambridgeshire, across the UK and overseas…

What does Cinematic wedding photography mean?

It’s wedding photography that feels like a movie of your day — full of emotion, movement, and real moments, not stiff poses.

It takes you back to the emotions of your wedding and plays out like a story, not just a series of photos.

That kiss you’ll remember forever

When the time is right I’ll stand back with a long lens at a respectful distance so you can have a genuine moment together.

Emotional moments with your loved ones

I find out who’s most important to you and watch for the right moment to step in and capture those precious, emotional moments like I wasn’t even there.

The laughter and energy of the dance-floor

I’ll be dancing like a demon and as the music builds to a crescendo I’ll pick my moment and capture the fun. If I’m not being punched by flailing arms then I’m not close enough to the action!

Not only is he incredibly talented behind the camera, but his personality made the experience even more special. Warm, friendly, and genuinely invested in making our day amazing, he felt like part of the celebration rather than just someone working it.
