Peter Mackey Photography

I’m Peter Mackey — a Belfast-based wedding photographer dedicated to telling the real story of your wedding day. My focus is simple: honest, emotive wedding photography that reflects the atmosphere, connection and moments that make each celebration unique. I aim to balance a calm, documentary approach with considered composition so you receive professional wedding photos that feel both natural and timeless. Why choose me? My priority is to create images that put you at ease. I work unobtrusively to capture candid interactions and genuine emotion, stepping in with gentle direction only when it helps create a stronger image. The result is a collection of wedding photos that reads like the narrative of your day — from quiet, intimate details to the spontaneous moments that unfold between planned events. My approach is built around listening and presence. Before the wedding I take time to understand what matters to you: the moments you want preserved, the relationships that are important, and the tone you want for your images. On the day, I stay adaptable and attentive, blending into the background while keeping an eye for light, expression, and composition. This balance of documentary instinct and considered framing produces photographs that are both meaningful and aesthetically refined. I care deeply about producing work that stands the test of time. Each wedding gallery is edited with a consistent eye for tone and clarity so your images feel cohesive when viewed as a whole. Whether you prefer intimate, low-key celebrations or lively receptions, my goal is the same: to capture the truth of your wedding day with authenticity and craft. If you’re looking for a wedding day photographer in Belfast who prioritises atmosphere, emotion and a calm, professional presence, I’d love to hear about your plans. I approach every wedding as a unique story to be told through thoughtful, professional wedding photography.
