Dave Zaple Photography

Dave Zaple Photography specialises in wedding photography from Eastleigh, bringing a documentary-led, human approach to every wedding day. As a wedding day photographer I focus on the real moments—those small, unscripted exchanges and emotional beats that tell the story of your day. My work favours natural light, unobtrusive framing and honest storytelling so your wedding photos feel like the event you lived, not a staged photo shoot. Why choose Dave Zaple? I treat each wedding as its own story. Years of shooting real weddings have taught me when to step forward and when to blend into the background. That mix of attentive timing and gentle direction delivers genuine images: candid laughter, meaningful glances and the quiet details that matter. Couples often tell me they appreciate how relaxed and present they feel during the day, which comes through in the images I deliver. My process is straightforward and client-focused. We start with a friendly conversation about your plans and priorities—whether you want more documentary wedding photography or a few thoughtfully composed bridal and engagement portraits. On the day I work unobtrusively alongside your schedule, keeping ceremony and reception flow natural while capturing the moments you’ll want to relive. After the wedding I apply careful editing to present cohesive, professional wedding photos that reflect the atmosphere and emotion of your celebration. I photograph weddings across Eastleigh and the wider UK, offering both engagement photography and bridal portraits to complement full wedding coverage. My goal is to create a lasting visual narrative: a gallery of images that’s both timeless and true to your personalities. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer who values authenticity, calm professionalism and storytelling-driven images, Dave Zaple Photography is built around that approach. I love being part of couples’ biggest days and helping them preserve memories with clarity and heart—photographs you’ll return to for years to come.
