Dave Martin Photography is a Castlereagh-based specialist in wedding photography, committed to creating timeless, emotive images that reflect the real story of your day. Dave approaches each wedding with the attention and calm of an experienced wedding-day photographer: unobtrusive when you want to live the moment, gently directive when you need a little help to relax in front of the lens. The result is a collection of professional wedding photos that balance honest, documentary moments with refined bridal and couple portraits. Why choose Dave Martin for your wedding in Castlereagh, Belfast or anywhere across Northern Ireland? Dave works with couples who value authenticity—those who want to remember how the day felt, not just how it looked. He blends a reportage mindset with considered posing and lighting, capturing the laughter, quiet glances and family connections that make each celebration unique. This is wedding photography that honours emotion and craft: clean composition, natural light where possible, and thoughtful editing to produce images you’ll want to live with for years. The experience starts with conversation. Dave takes time to understand your priorities and the flow of your day so the photography supports it rather than interrupts it. Many couples choose an engagement session to build rapport and to create relaxed portraits ahead of the wedding; these sessions are also a useful rehearsal that makes the wedding-day photography feel familiar and easy. On the day, Dave moves calmly through the event, combining candid documentary coverage with the composed moments couples cherish—family groupings, bridal portraits and the details that tell your story. Deliverables are focused on quality and longevity: carefully edited digital images and options to preserve memories in prints or albums. While wedding photography is the focus, Dave also offers related services such as engagement photography and can work alongside videographers when couples want both photo and film coverage. If you’re looking for a wedding photographer in Castlereagh who values genuine connection, clear communication and craft-driven images, Dave Martin Photography brings a professional, personable approach to capturing your wedding day.
