Daniel Lightening Photography

Daniel, what can I say? Thank you so much for everything you did for us on our wedding day! Your photos are beyond incredible and everything we could have hoped for and more!In terms of a review for anyone reading this, Daniel’s photography should already be speaking volumes for itself but in case you need an extra push…below are the three main reasons that we totally recommend Daniel for any photography you need.1) Daniel is lovely! He fit seamlessly amongst our wedding guests and genuinely felt like a friend that we had invited along! Everyone felt at ease in an instant and we genuinely loved going off for our photos and just having a laugh with Daniel!2) Daniel is on another level of hard working! Promising to be with me by 9am, Daniel turned up just after 8:15am and had already been getting shots of the grounds outside! There is not one shot that he missed that I wish he’d caught! He was discreet but at the same time, as never missed a thing!3) Our pictures are INCREDIBLE! As I said previously, Daniel captured everything and I am so beyond pleased with all of the photos! And to have them back in just over a week, is amazing!!Daniel, we really cannot thank you enough, you were 10/10 and we will be recommending you to anyone we can!

We originally booked Dan for our 2020 wedding, and like most couples our wedding was unfortunately postponed on more than one occasion. Dan was so accommodating, and we were so pleased when we decided to get married on a smaller scale in 2022 that he was available for our new wedding date.

We previously had an engagement shoot with Dan (which we would recommend!) on what would have been our original wedding day, so knew we could rely on him to capture our wedding day perfectly.We are in LOVE with the wedding gallery that Dan put together for us, it really has exceeded all of our expectations.  It wasn’t just Dan’s awesome photography skills that made us book him, he is one of the nicest guys you could meet who puts you at ease immediately and was great mingling with our guests on the day, capturing lots of amazing natural shots.Thank you so much Dan for giving us the most beautiful memories to look back on, and for always going above and beyond to get the perfect photo (which included sliding down river banks and jumping over fences!!)

Daniel did an amazing job for our wedding. He captured some beautiful 'in the moment' shots throughout the day and we were so happy with our couple photos. He has great ideas for some unique shots but doesn't make anything feel posed or awkward. We particularly loved that his cameras have no sound so he can blend into the background unnoticed. We took a few moments throughout the day to get group and couple shots and he worked quickly to ensure we got some lovely photos without taking too much time away from our guests. Our photos came just two weeks after the wedding - very speedy editing! Thank you Daniel for making our day so special and capturing some beautiful memories! We'd highly recommend him for anyone wanting a relaxed style of photography and stunning photos!

What a wonderful person and amazing photographer Daniel is. He photographed our April 2023 wedding and did the most incredible job at not only capturing the key parts so beautifully, but all the candid, spontaneous moments in between. On the day he was organised and clear but also inconspicuous and creative in his approach. We are completely overwhelmed with the end photos and how hard he worked to prepare them for us with a really quick turnaround. We really are totally spoilt for choice and are so glad to have chosen Daniel. THANK YOU. Love Naomi and Sam xxx

We cannot recommend Daniel enough. He’s a really nice chap and made everyone comfortable and relaxed on the day. He knew just when to take us away for our own shots but it was never for too long so we didn’t feel like we missed out on parts of the day. The final photos are absolutely stunning and we are so so so pleased with them! His drone shots looked really good and showed the venue in its full glory as well as working well for the big group shots. He was very good at organising everyone for group shots and took amazing candid photos. 10/10!

One word - AMAZING!We first met Daniel at our friends wedding back in 2013, little did my then girlfriend know that I was planning on popping the question the very next week on holiday.From the moment we booked Daniel for our wedding he was professional, courteous and kind, and bent over backwards to accommodate our requests, meeting us at our reception venue, despite the (fairly) long journey from Norwich.On the day itself, he was a calming influence on both my wife Abi and myself, and enhanced the day by blending in and taking the most awesome photos. Without a doubt (with the exception of getting married to the most amazing woman), the best decision we made when planning our big day - highly recommend, and a lovely man to boot! Cheers Dan!

We are really happy we chose Daniel as the photographer for our wedding.Daniel’s style of photography is exactly what we were looking for. He was so approachable and easy to deal with all the way through the process, right from the initial message. On the wedding day, he put everyone at ease and although very professional, felt like one of our guests.Thank you Daniel for being so down to earth and for taking all those amazing photographs.Rob and Kathryn.

Dan is an absolute LEGEND. He was our photographer for our wedding and we could not recommend him higher. The most professional, friendly, approachable, relaxed, chill, hard-working, loveliest photographer. The whole booking process was so easy, Dan answered any questions we had super quickly and he was AMAZING on the day. Dan is so talented and brilliant. I (bride) was super, crazy nervous about being photographed and Dan was so relaxed and chill about it all, that the whole day was so lovely. We know he has got amazing shots but we weren't pressured at all. Dan didn't take us away that much so we got to be part of the day loads. The group shots were super easy.Bride's dad is a retired professional wedding photographer and grooms dad is a semi-professional photographer so Dan had his work cut out for him and he massively impressed them both. They were both raving about him. Thank you Dan forever!!

What can I say!? We can't imagine any one better to have been our wedding photographer. A joy to work with in the build-up, and on the day a lovely presence who put everyone at ease while taking control of the 'tricky' moments like the group shots! We knew the photos (which were ready really quickly!) would be good, but they honestly exceeded our highest expectations. Daniel has a great eye, and is clearly someone who understands which moments matter at a wedding, which means he captures some really wonderful shots, from the small things like a lovely expression on a face, to the big things like incredible sunset shots! So grateful to him and we'll always be grateful for these photos. Thank you!
