Daniel Ellis Photography

Hi, I’m Daniel, a documentary wedding photographer with a deep passion for capturing authentic and meaningful moments that tell the story of your wedding day.

I love the beauty and emotion that unfold during weddings – the joy, the laughter, the tears of happiness. I photograph your day as it naturally unfolds, capturing the true essence of your love and the genuine connections between you, your loved ones, and your guests. For me, the true magic of wedding photography lies in the unposed, unfiltered moments that reflect the authentic spirit of your wedding day. Choosing a documentary wedding photographer allows you and your guests to be themselves and enjoy the day completely uninterrupted.

I can’t promise you good weather on your wedding day, but I can promise beautiful, unstaged photographs and never to ask anything from you on the day.

A little bit about me:

Before becoming a photographer, I studied forensic psychology and worked as a researcher at a children’s charity. I live on the South coast of Devon with my wife, two young sons, and a retired racing greyhound called Morty.

Documenting everyday moments and interactions within my own family is how this all started for me. I’m obsessed with greyhounds and will go a long way to meet any we see on our walks. All dogs are lovely though, so please bring your dog to your wedding for me.

When I’m not photographing weddings and families, or chasing my two kids around, I paint miniatures and read lots of sci-fi and fantasy books.

I'm a documentary wedding photographer capturing your unique wedding story candidly and unobtrusively. I capture the emotion and beauty of weddings without interrupting, ruining the moment, or asking you to smile for the camera.

The emotional ups and downs of the day. You get laughter one minute and tears the next but everyone is there for the couple. Wedding days are just so joyful.

Pick the style of photography that resonates most with you. What kind of images do you love? Then pick a photographer you connect with as a person. Your photographer is going to be part of your wedding day and you want to feel comfortable with them being there.

Travel within the UK is included for all weddings.
