The Best of Daniel Charles Photography’s Wedding Photos in 2018
Every January (or February if I’ve been busy!) I review the previous year’s wedding photos. It’s something I love to do, as every wedding has fond memories for me and my team and it’s great […]
Why you shouldn’t ask Uncle Bob to photograph your wedding…
A couple of times each year I’ll miss out on a booking to a family friend or relative. I can’t say any more than that, as I have no idea whether the individuals are photographers […]
Why I love being the wedding photographer at a Leasowe Castle wedding so much!
Ah, wedding photography at Leasowe Castle. Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? Well, it’s not that castle-like really, but what it lacks in ramparts and portcullises, it makes up with location and light. Recently refurbished to a […]
Another Christmas wedding: Metropolitan Cathedral Liverpool and Titanic Hotel wedding photographs
Oh my days – this wedding was just phenomenal. Sally and Phil chose the day before Christmas Eve for their wonderful wedding and filled both venues with the nicest people you can imagine. The weather […]

Hannah & Andrew – Liverpool Doubletree Hilton Hotel Wedding Photography
Wet weather winter weddings – what works wonderfully? It’s simple really – make sure your venue is fabulous indoors (sorry about all that alliteration – sometimes I can’t help myself!). Hannah and Andrew chose the […]
My photographic style is best described as “artistically managed documentary”. (You’re right – I made that up! I’m not pretentious enough to actually believe my own hype!) This means that during a wedding day, I’m shooting whatever is occurring without intrusion but also that I’m not shy of stepping in to manage groups or pose couples using my extensive creative experience to make you look wonderful together. Clients often remark how natural the photos seem – even when I’ve posed them. I will never get a couple to do anything that would make me feel awkward if I had to do it – and certainly nothing cheesy or fake! I want your photos to celebrate your love and commitment to one another – wedding photography allows me to continue experiencing the joy of a couple coming together in love, just as I did on my wedding day. Take some time while you’re here to look at the photos on my site – I hope you’ll be able to see how natural-looking they are.
Liverpool Wedding Photography that won’t spoil your wedding day?
I’ve met many couples who say they don’t photograph well, or that they hate having their pictures taken. Yet on their wedding day, my friendly professional approach allays their fears and I get to do what I do best – taking beautiful wedding photographs. My favourite part of my job is showing wedding photographs to camera-shy couples who thought they’d ruined the shoot – and seeing their faces when they realise that they chose a wedding photographer who overcame all their concerns and produced the timeless wedding photos they’d dreamed of.
I also have a simple system to photograph formal family groups. This part of the day, which I’ve often heard can take hours with other photographers (maybe you’ve been to a wedding where this has happened?), normally takes me about 20 minutes, meaning that your guests are released to enjoy the day, instead of being herded around like sheep. Quite often, guests have come up to me at the end of the formal group shoot and asked, incredulously, “Is that it? All done?” and I’m delighted to be able to direct them to the bar!
My assistant and I shoot all day – from bridal preparations to wedding evening party. On average we will be with you for about 8 hours. My prices start from £1050.00 for a full day of wedding photography with album. (Your wedding date is secured with a 30% down-payment and then the full amount is due no later than 2 weeks before the wedding date.) As the albums increase in gorgeous sumptuousness, the prices go up. You can add lots of extras like parent books, amazing presentation boxes or extra spreads. I sell the amazing Graphistudio range of wedding albums. Their quality has to be seen to be believed and as a long term customer, I can vouch for their customer service being second-to-none. I’d love to show my samples to you so I strongly recommend that all couples arrange a meeting before booking – it’s essential to meet your photographer as they will be with you all day. If you don’t ‘click’ with them, don’t book them.
I have so much positive feedback based on this principle; my goal is to be the friendliest supplier on your day. For me, wedding photography is not just about the pictures. I’ll be the person you can trust all day to help you sort out little problems, keep the day on schedule and generally make sure everything goes according to plan – as well as creating a fantastic photographic record to treasure for generations to come. I’ve never had someone tell us they thought we were rude or pushy in the 10+ years I’ve been photographing weddings. On the contrary – my customers have often remarked about how their guests thought we were part of the wedding party. Not because we weren’t working of course – but because we are not afraid to interact and help people out. You can read lots of feedback here – it’s all genuine. I hope to hear from you soon!
