Garston-based Liverpool wedding photographer David Walters specialises in documentary, natural wedding photography across the UK—quiet, unscripted images that capture real emotion.
I’m David Walters — a Liverpool wedding photographer based in Garston who believes the best wedding photos are the ones you didn’t notice being taken. My work is documentary-led, natural, and unapologetically human: I look for the unguarded glances, rogue tears, and the joyful chaos that makes each wedding unmistakably yours. Why choose me? Because I’m not here to choreograph your day. I’m here to be present in it. I work quietly and unobtrusively — a ninja in sensible shoes — so you can get on with hugging your people, laughing too loudly, and losing track of time. That approach means your wedding photography feels genuine, not manufactured. The result is a collection of images that transport you back to the moments that mattered, whether that’s a quick squeeze of a hand during the vows or someone’s delighted face on the dancefloor. My style is rooted in storytelling. I’m attracted to light, emotion, and those tiny details that reveal personality. I don’t rely on staged poses or awkward prompts; I wait for the laugh, the wobble in the chin, or the spontaneous exchange that says more than words ever could. Over the course of your day I move through it quietly, anticipating moments and catching them with instinct, craft, and a healthy stash of spare batteries and memory cards. Based in Garston and covering weddings across the UK (and beyond—if there’s cake), I bring a relaxed, reassuring presence to your celebration. Couples tell me I feel like another guest: attentive, friendly, and calm. That trust lets people be themselves, and those honest reactions are what make the final gallery sing. If you want wedding photography that reflects the real mood of your day — candid, emotional, and beautifully simple — I’d love to hear from you. No forced smiles, no field-of-flowers clichés, just memory-catching photographs that put you right back in the moment.
