We love our wedding photos. We had a small wedding and Alan was happy to be flexible according to the weather. We were prepared for rain but got sun, blue sky and a lot of heat! Thanks for capturing our happy day. More...

Alan was amazing from start to finish, he is so professional and made us feel at ease throughout the photographs. Prior to the wedding we met up to discuss the day, he really made an effort to get to know us which resulted in such a positive experience on our wedding day. He took some absolutely amazing photos and we cannot recommend enough. More...

Right from our first contact with Alan he has been friendly, professional and very helpful. He made a special trip to the wedding and reception venues (Newark registry office and the Deincourt hotel) to check out any particular requirements and to ascertain the best photograph opportunities. On the day he somehow managed to be ever present at all the key moments, but somehow so discreet that I, my now husband and all the guests were able to be completely natural and relaxed. He had taken the trouble to ask us for a list of any particular group photos we wanted, so we have all the 'key players' as well as a wonderful selection of wonderfully informal, relaxed pictures of us and all the guests. The shots of the young children are particularly delightful. His fees and prices are very competitive. We chose to have all the photos on a memory stick and were delighted when this arrived to find that it is a beautiful, shiny silver heart, with some real weight to it; truly a lovely keepsake for all the memories of a completely magical day. Thank you so much, Alan. I cannot recommend you highly enough. More...

Alan made our day perfect, he’s a relaxed and friendly photographer and captured everything we wanted and more. Our wedding photos are amazing, they re tell the story of the whole day and we all get emotional when we look at them. Alan’s communication was 5 star, before and after our big day. Overall, I would highly recommend Alan to anyone for their wedding day photography. More...

Alan was very professional in his approach to providing us with the perfect wedding day photography. He visited us personally to discuss all matters and requests, and also visited the various photo venues to ensure everything ran according to plan and to ensure he had a plan âBâ in case of rain. The end results are stunning. Photos of top class quality, beautifully presented in acrylic covered<span id="moreReview291785" class="hide"> story book. Alan is also one of the least expensive photographers that we visitedâ¦â¦â¦â¦..approx £300 cheaper than our next cheapest quote. Highly recommended. <br /><br />Rachel & Edward Busby </span> More...

Alan Walters took our wedding photographs and did an excellent job. He was very thorough and was happy to meet at our wedding venue a few weeks before the big day to familiarise himself with the place plus talk through the style of photographs that we wanted. He was very accommodating and on the big day made everyone feel comfortable and relaxed. He did a super job with all of the pictures, from<span id="moreReview291403" class="hide"> the bridal party getting ready to the first dance, he was excellent. I would definitely recommend Alan as a wedding photographer, he's event booked to do my sister's wedding in August! Thanks so muchh Alan. Hanna & Mark Coburn</span> More...

Brilliant photographer. We had Alan Walters photograph our wedding day. He got all the photos we wanted, plus some extras that were absolutely brilliant, a very talented photographer. He was very professional with organsing everyone for our group photos and at the same time captured the romance between us in the personal pictures. The album that was supplied was very well presented and of great<span id="moreReview291755" class="hide"> quality. We will definately be recommending Alan Walters to friends.</span> More...

Alan was photographer at our wedding in 2010. He made it easy and was stressfree to work with, as we found Alan to be reliable and straightforward in interaction and planning. He also took excellent photos, and our final album is absolutely superb. Even allowing for the fact that it's of my own wedding it is the best wedding album I've seen. I highly recommend him. More...

We used Alan S Walters Photography for our wedding in August 2009. Before the wedding Alan came to the church and the reception venue with us where we discussed where we would have the photos and what photos we wanted this really put me at ease for the day as everything was so organised. On the day Alan was fantastic he was so friendly and relaxed and my husband and I didn't have to worry about<span id="moreReview92285" class="hide"> the photographs everything was taken care of. All the guests commented on how nice Alan was and how they didn't really know he was there. So we had some really fantastic natural photos of our guests. Also, Alan was kind enough to stay a little longer than first planned to take photos of our first dance.We picked the photos we wanted on line and Alan designed our album which we viewed on line. It looked fantastic on line but when we got the album it was exceptional we were so pleased and everyone who has looked at our wedding album has said how wonderful and professional it is and the fact that the photos look so natural is exactly what we wanted. It was exceptionally good value for money. We will be using Alan again very soon for photos of our baby due in the summer and I have recommened him to all our friends and family as his customer service and products are exceptional.</span> More...

We went to Waltersphoto for a family portrait and as a new experience for us didn't really know what to expect. We have two small children who are not the best at sitting still either. We needn't have worried as we were made to feel comfortable the moment we walked through the door.<br /><br />The photographer, Alan, was really good at getting results that looked both natural and extremely professional<span id="moreReview91860" class="hide"> - we sent them to family members and friends, some of whom, I know have since been to Waltersphoto for a photo session themselves.</span> More...

What do you love most about your job?
It's definitely spending time to get to know the couple and their guests, and helping to guide them towards a great day and a great selection of images.
It certainly isn't anything technical - though you can rest assured after nearly 30 years working for the press and magazines I can get a great shot in any conditions
What inspired you to start your own business?
In fairness I am living the dream. From the age of around 10 when I was lucky enough to be given a camera that I had asked for - my ambition was to become a professional photographer.
From age 11 onwards I would take notes in the library from the books of great photographers - then go out in to the world and try to emulate them.
Funnily enough I have never wanted to be particularly rich - just to enjoy taking great shots and creating great memories.
Why should our clients choose you?
There is no replacement for full-time professional experience. Whether it is a bright sunny day - or maybe not (!) your wedding day deserves a real professional who can get the best from your special day! All this and reasonably priced too!
If you want great shots, taken in a friendly, relaxed and cheerful (sometimes cheeky) way that inspires your guests then please get in touch.
However you want to remember your day - laughing, relaxed or maybe a little more traditional - trust me I have covered more than 700 weddings and can accommodate your day just how you want it to be.
(BTW - no secrets, no hidden extras, no watermarks across images, no running away at 7pm if you've booked all-day, no demanding you pretend to dance early....and when you ask for a quote it will be all-inclusive!)
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
All booking enquiries, quotes and discussions can be made by email, messenger, FaceTime, Skype, teams or zoom.
You are allowed to suggest a 'phone call instead!
All images are supplied in (password protected) online galleries with an advanced ordering system for friends and relatives to view.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Physical signing of booking forms is no longer needed - all booking are electronic.
As well as being triple jabbed, because I work for the local newspaper as their photographer in the week I take a minimum of two tests per week plus an extra one before attending any social events.
