Dan Dalton Photography & Film

Hi, I’m Dan Dalton — an award-winning wedding photographer and filmmaker based in Elland with nearly two decades behind the camera. Weddings are my favourite: I love the people, the emotion and the party — and I’m there to quietly document it all. My approach is natural and documentary-led: I blend in, chat to your guests and let the day unfold, capturing authentic laughs, tears and those unscripted moments that become your lasting memories. Specialist in wedding photography and wedding film, I offer full-day coverage and bespoke film options so you don’t miss a single moment. I shoot with an eye for storytelling — portraits that feel relaxed and cinematic sequences that make you feel like you’re back there again. Many couples choose to book both photography and film together; not only does this give you seamless coverage across stills and motion, it also keeps things simple on the day and can save you money. What makes me different is a mix of experience, personality and practical care. I bring two decades of wedding know-how to every celebration: I dress to blend in, stay organised, and quietly solve little problems so you can enjoy the day. Couples often tell me how at ease their guests feel — that relaxed atmosphere is what creates natural, emotive images and films. Working with me is straightforward and friendly. We’ll start with a conversation about your plans, venue and vision. On the day I’m adaptable and calm, moving between documenting candid moments and guiding relaxed portraits. After the wedding I carefully edit and craft both your photographs and film to create a timeless collection you’ll want to watch and share again and again. If you’re looking for a specialist wedding photographer and filmmaker in Elland — someone who prioritises real emotion, storytelling and a fuss-free experience — let’s chat. I’d love to hear about your plans and tell the story of your day through beautiful, professional wedding photos and films.
