Dan Akerman Photography

Dan Akerman Photography is a Fareham-based specialist in wedding photography, dedicated to creating natural, storytelling images that reflect the atmosphere and emotion of your wedding day. Dan’s approach is quietly documentary: he stays unobtrusive while watching for the decisive moments that reveal personality, relationships and honest feeling. The result is a collection of wedding photos that feel authentic, timeless and full of life. Why choose Dan? Years of experience across Hampshire and the south coast have shaped a calm, adaptable style that suits relaxed country venues and elegant hotel weddings alike. Dan blends documentary coverage with considered portrait work so you get both the candid moments that make your day unique and the composed images couples treasure for years. He focuses on atmosphere, expression and connection rather than forced poses, helping even camera-shy couples feel comfortable and natural in front of the lens. How Dan works with clients: the process is personal and straightforward. He begins by listening—understanding your priorities, the flow of your day and the moments you most want preserved. On the wedding day Dan moves with the pace of the event, offering gentle guidance for group and couples’ portraits while prioritising the spontaneous interactions that often become the most cherished photographs. For couples who want it, Dan also offers engagement/pre-wedding shoots to build rapport, explore locations and create relaxed images before the big day. Dan’s photography is driven by a love of storytelling and a belief that great wedding photos come from attention to detail, empathy and timing. He aims to deliver a calm presence on the day, consistent quality and digital images that let you relive the emotion of your wedding — from the small, quiet moments through to the evening celebrations. While wedding photography is Dan’s core focus, he occasionally photographs family portrait sessions with the same natural, relaxed approach. Based in Fareham and serving Hampshire and the surrounding coast, Dan Akerman Photography specialises in capturing wedding days with warmth, honesty and compositional clarity — professional wedding photos that tell your story.
